I once asked this somewhere else but never got an answer (Possible Spoiler):

You know when Egg Shen drops the statue onto Lightning and there is an eruption of lightning all over the place. Right at the last second there is a japanese letter or symbol in the lightning. Anyone care to know what it means?

BTW One of my fave films of all time too.

According to IMDb....

As Lightning (the character, one of the Three Storms) is crushed to death near the end of the film, some of the lightning he emits forms a small Chinese symbol as it disappears (near the top middle of the screen). The symbol translates as "carpenter". This film was directed by John Carpenter.
