Line 141:
**** In that same scene from ''Star Trek III: The Search for Spock'', a phaser packing Uhura demands the transporter beam operator to "get in the closet"!
** On a slightly different note, Sulu's canon interest in "botany" is kind of hilarious now that he's being portrayed by [[Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle]]. I think we all know what he's ''really'' growing back there...
* This wiki's page for [[Translation Train Wreck]] links to a set of poorly translated subtitles for "The Two Towers." Many are very funny on their own, but [[:Filemedia:two-towers-04.jpg| this one]] is especially hilarious now.
* One of the characters in ''[[Attack of the Killer Tomatoes|Return Of The Killer Tomatoes]]'' is trying to con women into dating him via a phoney competition offering a date with a movie star. The character is played by future movie star George Clooney.
** Similarly, one of the other actors in that film, Rick Rockwell, would later become the titular rich man in the reality show ''Who Wants To Marry a Multi-Millionaire''? -- which, as it turned out, was as much of a scam as what Clooney's character tries in the film.
Line 213:
* In ''[[Undercover Brother]]'' (2002), Lance ([[Neil Patrick Harris]]) has his [[Berserk Button]] pressed when a guard calls him a sissy, leading him to say "I am not a SISSY!" In November 2006, Neil Patrick Harris publicly came out as gay. [[Captain Obvious|For those not in the know, "sissy" was originally a slur against gay people.]]
* Zavulon in ''[[Night Watch]]'' was seen playing a video game with his cellphone. Whatever he did with his phone, his in-game character did with his sword. Looked cool back in 2004. Then came the Wii...
* The [[:Filemedia:final-destination.jpg| poster]] for ''[[Final Destination]]'': "NO ACCIDENTS. NO COINCIDENCES. NO ESCAPES. '''[[Super Smash Bros.|FINAL]] [[Memetic Mutation|DESTI]][[:Filemedia:Movie_or_Game_smaller_1914.jpg|NATION]].'''"
* The 1946 drama ''Dragonwyck'' has [[Vincent Price]] as the sinister Nicholas Van Ryn. At one point he sardonically asks the heroine if she expected to find in his room velvet drapes, pagan idols, and altars to human sacrifice. The movies he appeared in afterwards tended to have elements like those in them regularly. It was like Price had looked into his future...
* In [[The Movie]] of ''[[Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas]]'', Doctor Gonzo (Benicio del Toro) says, "Even a fucking [[Wolf Man|werewolf]] deserves legal counsel."
Line 421:
* The US ''[[World War II]]'' training film TF1-3325 opens with a pilot, played by [[Ronald Reagan]], being reassigned to training asking "What would they want with me in Washington?"
