Line 7:
* From ''[[Youtube Poop]]'':
** In ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yacqVp39e98 The LOL King]'', one of the first jokes involves Simba falling off of Pride Rock as Rafiki holds him up. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIP1xnk2W3E&t=3m27s And then, the official blooper reel on the Diamond Edition DVD came].
** In ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfnHpF4zs48 The Ganonator]'', the titular [[Implacable Man]] tells a punk to "Give me your face. Now!" In light of a certain [[Pre-Mortem One-Liner]] from ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (Film)|Transformers Revenge of the Fallen]]''...
* A series of ''[[Naruto]]'' flash video parodies on [[YouTube]] called "Fun With Akatsuki" featured the masked Tobi as a hapless, good-natured [[Butt Monkey]] with the catchphrase, "But Tobi is a good boy!" The fact that Tobi {{spoiler|turns out to be the [[Big Bad]] of the series}} makes this even funnier.
** Two words... {{spoiler|Blind}} Itachi, since Kakashi mentions during the fight with the Itachi clone early in Shippuden that {{spoiler|Itachi's eyesight deteriorates every time he uses the Mangekyo Sharingan}}. This later becomes a plot point, as {{spoiler|Itachi's on the verge of losing his vision during his fight with Sasuke, and Sasuke later taxes his Mangekyo Sharingan almost to the point of blindness before using Itachi's eyes}}.
Line 20:
* When ''The Liam Smith Show'' [[Flash Forward|flashed forward]] to New Years Eve 2999, Dick Clark promoted [[UPN]]: "For One Thousand Years, the Solar System's Number One Network."
* In 2006, [[The Angry Video Game Nerd (Web Video)|The Angry Video Game Nerd]] made a video about confusing video game and movie sequel titles and mentioned how in the early 90's there were two ''Mega Man'' series, the [[Mega Man (Video Game)|originals]] and the ''[[Mega Man X (Video Game)|X]]'' series. He then said, "Now if only they made a ''[[Mega Man 9 (Video Game)|Mega Man 9]]'', it would come full circle."
** Even better, Capcom has announced a ''Mega Man '''10'''''. And ''much'' better, said game probably gave a nod to this "coincidence", seeing as ''[[Mega Man 10 (Video Game)|Mega Man 10]]'' is practically a tribute {{spoiler|yet still doesn't connect}} to the ''X'' series, with [[The Virus|a virus outbreak]], Proto Man as a playable character ([[Hilarious in Hindsight|LOADS of funny references]] to [[Ascended Extra|Zero]] in that one alone) and its [
** There's also his rant about the movie ''[[Rocky Balboa]]'' breaking the ''Rocky'' series' numbering tradition, and compares it to the then-upcoming new Rambo film being titled "John Rambo." That did indeed become the movie's working title for a while (and actual release title in some countries), causing him to comment "I feel kind of bad, like I picked on a retarded kid."
** In the ''[[Silver Surfer (Video Game)|Silver Surfer]]'' review, the nerd mocked how [[One-Hit-Point Wonder|weak]] Silver Surfer was, comparing it to hypothetically showing Bruce Lee tripping over his shoelaces. A few years later (though it's not Bruce Lee), we have ''[[Super Smash Bros Brawl]]'', in which several bounty hunters, futuristic agents, [[Metal Gear|Solid Snake]], and ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' trip over themselves once every few minutes (randomly), with absolutely no way to stop it or turn it off.
Line 103:
** In [http://ars.userfriendly.org/cartoons/?id=20091004&mode=classic this] 2009 Sunday strip, a [[Star Trek]] crossword has as #6 down, "Brain connection with fingers to face". The actual answer is {{spoiler|Vulcan mind meld}}, but considering what [[Face Palm|Captain Picard]] is now famous for...
* An ''[[Awkward Zombie]]'' animated short features the crew of the ''[[Myth Busters]]'' attempting to build a cannon out of duct tape in order to fire a pig. While the "cannon made out of duct tape" sounds like a [[Flanderized]] "silly Mythbusters build," the Mythbusters did a "duct tape" special much later. And guess what they ''actually'' built?
** Another Awkward Zombie comic has someone using a dog whistle that only Link can hear because he has huge ears; this was made before ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Video Game)|Twilight Princess]]''.
** "[[Ace Attorney|Edgeworth]] [http://www.awkwardzombie.com/comic1-121707.php is such a closet Steel Samurai Fan]". A full two years later, ''[[Ace Attorney Investigations]]'' comes out and that turns out to be ''precisely'' the case.
* ''[[Order of the Stick]]'': Haley can't remember whether Sabine, a succubus, is a demon or a devil. This was before 4th edition.
