Line 2:
* In the original short Finn [[John Carter of Mars|mentally projects himself to Mars]].
* One promo after "Freak City" has [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQSNhk5ICTI the double rainbow video] recreated with [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ByIAseO8RFA Jake witnessing two Rainicorns].
* Marceline calls Finn a [[Castle Crashers (Video Game)|Castle Crasher]] in her second episode.
* In "The Duke", one of the potions Finn and Jake are messing around with is labeled "[[LOLcats|Caturday Surprise]]."
* Billy's sword is called Nothung, the name of Siegfried's sword in ''[[Der Ring Des Nibelungen]]''.
* The title card of "His Hero" is a nod to [[Frank Frazetta]]'s Death Dealer.
* Finn's plastic surgery turns Lumpy Space Princess into a [[Duck TalesDuckTales|Gizmoduck]] lookalike.
* After being freed from prison, the Ice King loudly proclaims "[[Dungeons and Dragons (Tabletop Game)|CAST DETECT SECRET DOORS!]]" before blasting a hole to freedom.
** Mind you that happens in a room that has been proven to have at least 2 real hidden doors.
* The horse in "The Eyes" is based on the Fat Shetland Pony from ''[[Hark! aA Vagrant]]''.
* The Ice King has a [[Memetic Mutation/Music|"Ring, Ring, Ring, Ring,]] '''[[Ear Worm|banana phone]]'''"
* The [http://therealscratchpad.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/adventure_time_with_finn_jake.png series title card] is styled after the ''[[Dungeons and Dragons (Tabletop Game)|Dungeons and Dragons]]'' [http://paizo.com/image/content/DNDMovie2Logo/Movie2Logo_500.jpg 3rd Edition logo] and [http://www.anotherworld.fr/download/AnotherWorld_Poster.jpg the cover art] of the game ''[[Another World (Videovideo Gamegame)|Another World]]''.
* The episode "Guardians of the Sunshine" is FULL of reference to video games.
** It uses sound effects from many games, particulary ''[[Mega Man (Videovideo Gamegame)|Mega Man]]''.
** It also makes a few [[Super Mario Brothers]] references, like level-1, and the Bomba (Bob-omb).
** Finn's face turns into pong at one point.
Line 22:
* [http://www.formspring.me/natazilla/q/198875991685227093 According to Natasha Allegri's Formspring], Fionna and Cake are based on a certain [[Sailor Moon|planet-themed magical warrior girl and her talking black cat]]. The rabbit hat is a dead giveaway.
** [http://s3.amazonaws.com/data.tumblr.com/tumblr_lq5ofdlL4F1r193sio1_1280.jpg?AWSAccessKeyId=AKIAJ6IHWSU3BX3X7X3Q&Expires=1313864230&Signature=rUBsnww64Hjd%2BGcNmqivSxZV658%3D The dress Fionna wears in the episode] is another [[Shout-Out]] to [[Sailor Moon]].
* The robot orb-looking things that Fionna slashes at in "Adventure Time with Fionna and Cake" were based on the farm-intruding enemies from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: MajorasMajora's Mask]]''.
* The episode Mortal Recoil contains a bunch of clear references to ''[[The Exorcist (Film)|The Exorcist]]'' and ''[[The Grudge]]''.
* The tagline for the movie "Heat Signature" is "Under the ocean, no one can hear you die". This is a reference to the tagline for the movie ''Alien'' (1979): "In space, no one can hear you scream."
** The look and [[Calling Your Attacks]] nature of the "Vampire Kick" may be a reference to ''[[Kamen Rider]]''.
* In "Morituri Te Salutamus" just before one of the fighters dies, he says something along the lines of, "''Et tu, Verus?''" which is a reference to ''[[Julius Caesar (Theatretheatre)|Julius Caesar]]''.
* The "Susan Strong" title card is a reference to ''[[Lost]]''. There was also a "''Lost'' pan" in the storyboard that got cut from the episode.
** Not to mention how Susan Strong & Co also lived underneath a Hatch...
Line 39:
* Finn's method of curing the zombies in "From Bad To Worse" is to [[Doctor Who/NS/Recap/S2 E1 New Earth|douse himself with the antidote and walk into a mob of them so they all touch him.]]
* The title card for [http://images.wikia.com/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/1/1a/Beautopia_title_card.jpg Beautopia] references the famous [http://www.theprojectasylum.com/collections/postcards/nj-postcards/nj-asburypark-greetingsfromasburypark.jpg Greetings From Asbury Park, N.J. postcard].
* The episode "No One Can Hear You", references ''[[Alien (Filmfranchise)|Alien]]'' when {{spoiler|the candy people are shown to be stuck to the walls of the sewer with a goo, like the Xenomorphs do the their victims.}} Even the title is borrowed from the [[Tagline]] of the movie: "In space, '''no one can hear you''' scream." [[Bonus Points]] for [[Episode Finishes the Title|Finn and Jake screaming in the title card]].
** On the opposite end of the spectrum, Finn's casts breaking is really similar to [[Forrest Gump]]'s leg braces.
* [http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20111114220429/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/1/14/Me-mow.png The crew made an episode in honor of a little kid and his drawing of her original character, Me-mow, fighting Jake, which he titled "Jake vs. Me-mow".] Appropriately, the episode is called "Jake vs. Me-mow".
** The music box Finn uses to accompany the lullaby is strongly similar to the Orb of Isis in ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'' episode "Lost Our Lisa."
* The Bucket Knight is a shout-out to the Alternian Imperial Drones from ''[[Homestuck (Webcomic)|Homestuck]]''. The artists are confirmed to be fans: a picture of their whiteboard shows doodles of the main characters.
* From "Paper Pete" we have: "[[Kate Beaton (Creator)|YISS!!]]"
* "[[The Bible (Literature)|Partake of the fruit...]]"
* The first issue of the comic shows a cross-section of the ground... including a [[Dinosaur Comics (Webcomic)|fossilized T. rex about to stomp on a house]].
* The episode "Wizard Battle", the Grand Wizard states that wizards will fight using the eight schools of magic. This is likely a reference to ''[[Dungeons and Dragons (Tabletop Game)|Dungeons and Dragons]]''' eight schools of magic.
* "Five Short Graybles" has Princess Bubblegum making a [[Wallace and Gromit|familiar toothy smile]] while enthusiastically saying "CHEEEESE".
* "Princess Monster Wife" alludes to [[Greek Mythology|Perseus and Medusa]] when Finn and Jake use mirrors in order not to gaze upon the titular monster's hideousness directly, though they are only in danger of fainting instead of being turned into stone.
* The internet game [http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/games/adventuretime/rhythm-heroes/index.html "Rhythm Heroes"] is clearly a parody of ''[[Rhythm Heaven (Video Game)|Rhythm Heaven]]''.
