Lots and lots. According to Eddie Guzelian, he intentionally wanted to "rip off" many of the references to Terminator and Mad Max. Of note, we have:

Summer: It's moving too fast.
Dillon: Not for me.
Summer: How are you reading that?
Dillon: I am a machine.

  • And then, in 'Ranger Red', after the briefing Marcus Truman gives to his team, there is this:

Marcus: Questions?
Scott: But sir, what's our exit plan? How do we get our birds home once the city shields are raised?
(explosion and rocks falling from the ceiling)
Marcus: What's the matter, little brother? You want to live forever?

Ronin: Ziggy! You've got a lot of nerve showing your face in the city, after what you pulled.
