Noticed in Die Hard with a Vengeance, Bruce Willis mentions that he sits around smoking cigarettes and watching captain kangaroo which most of you know were the lyrics he was singing during his car ride in pulp fiction

In COming to America, Akeem (Eddie Murphy) gives money to two homeless men on the street. The two homeless men are "The Dukes" from Trading Places that Dan Akroyd and Murphy put into the poor house at the end. Hence, the "Mortimer, We're back!" quote from the scene.

Swingers - obvious

They mention that Tarantino rips everyone off - Mean Streets - but then say, the Reservoir Dogs shot of the gang walking was kick-arse...and then copy it...

They say the greatest scene is the Scorcese steady-cam back entrance nightclub shot...and then later in the film they copy it.

Watched Wolverine last night and there were two. When Hugh Jackman unleashes his brand new metal claws for the first time is brother comments "Shiny" (Firefly). And the back of the old couple's truck has a "Not all that wander are lost" bumper sticker which is somewhat of an inside joke as that part of Wolverine was filmed on the west coast of the south island of New Zealand, as was much of the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

Was Rambo referenced in Commando? I think it was, but it has been several years since I have seen it.

In Life, Eddie Murphy tells Goldmouth that he knows a bitch named Della that hits harder than him. Harlem Nights reference.

I think the chick asked him if he was going Rambo or if thought he was Rambo...something like that.

Commando


Upon researching for this...I saw this on the Commando Wiki page..

quote:

In 2010, it was announced that Fox would begin filming a remake of the film with David Ayer in negotiations to direct.[9] Sam Worthington is attached to play the new lead role, which will reportedly have a more realistic approach.[10]




Here's hoping this fell through, never to be seen again

ETA: 3 in a row...quick someone post something.

To what extent?

Because basically all Tarantino is an exercise is movie referencing in some fashion or another.

Or are you just meaning verbally?

I was going to bring up Tarantino and just the Tarantino universe. Reservoir Dogs makes references to characters in True Romance.

Tropic Thunder... When Downey Jr was talking about not going "full retard"


It was on FX last night. Very underrated IMO
