When Wong Ho asks you to rescue her daughter, when you reach her and talk to her she says "Arent you a little tall for a Tong?", could it be a reference to Star Wars???When Princess Leia is also being held "hostage" and Luke goes save her, and she says "Arent you a little short for a stormtrooper?"...well i just tought i should share this with you...if she had said short instead of tall, i think it would really be a reference to that Star Wars scene

The "aren't you a little short for a..." is a frequently used gag that turns up everywhere, and has, for the last 80 years or so. It's been used a lot in a variety of films, books, tv shows, and radio. The Star Wars use of it was satirical, since it's a cliche. It has also popped up in everything from I Love Lucy to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and beyond.

So I suspect the "aren't you a little tall for a..." could be satire on the whole group of them--if it isn't just meant to be taken at face value.
