Line 18:
* [[I Need a Freaking Drink]]: Benny, shortly after meeting [[Cloudcuckoolander|Sam]] for the first time.
* [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl]]: Sam is a male example.
* [[My Sister Is Off -Limits]]: Benny, though being Joon's brother, acts much like an [[Overprotective Dad]], and is against Sam and Joon's relationship.
* [[Shout -Out]]: [[Johnny Depp]]'s character, Sam, is a walking tribute to [[Buster Keaton]]. He also reenacts [[Charlie Chaplin]]'s bread roll dance from ''[[The Gold Rush]]'' at one point.
** Depp, a Chaplin enthusiast, stated that it took him several weeks to get the entire routine down perfectly, including all the little head movements and everything. Chaplin, of course, ad-libbed it on the spot.
*** Actually, Chaplin, being an almost obsessive perfectionist, would probably also have spent weeks getting the entire routine down perfectly.
