* The [[Riff Trax]] for ''[[Batman and Robin (film)|Batman and Robin]]'' contains a joke pointing out the resemblance between Dr. Woodrue and a certain character from Rifftrax's [[Spiritual Successor|spiritual predecessor]]...

** The Rifftrax for the first ''[[X-Men (film)|X-Men]]'' movie has a [[Call Back]] to a joke from ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]''.

'''Bill Corbet:''' Mike... can't we get '''[[Incredibly Lame Pun|beyond]]''' [[Incredibly Lame Pun|Thunderdome]]? }}

*** Even funnier as the exchange being referenced was in one of the last sketches between Mike and Crow as played by Trace Beaulieu, not Bill Corbett.

** The Rifftrax for ''[[Star Wars|Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope]]'' has a throwback to a [[Running Gag]] on the ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'' episode ''[[Space Mutiny]],'' one of the most popular episodes.

'''Bill:''' Kalgan, take me away! }}

*** Not necessarily a throwback, because there is a real product (Calgon) with this slogan.

** Bill also comments on X-Men's setting of "The Not-Too-Distant Future".

* In the October 2, 2008 [[Star Wars|HoloNet News broadcast]], when discussing the Separatists' [[Star Wars: The Clone Wars|new super weapon]], there was mention of how big a ship had to be to mount an ion cannon capable of wiping out entire task forces. The minimal values that the commentators suggest were 8, 12, and 17... which happen to be the different lengths Super Star Destroyers have had in various official media.
