* Patel's demise is inspired by legendary comic book artist Jack Kirby and his famous 'Kirby Crackle' signature style of dot filled explosions.

* The term 'competish' is trade publication slang from ''Variety'' Magazine.
* Nigel Godrich's awesome cue "Rumble" when Lucas Lee's stunt team shows up pays respect to Barry De Vorzon's awesome score for ''[[The Warriors (Filmfilm)|The Warriors]]''.
* There are seven stunt doubles for Lucas Lee. This is a nod to the amount of doubles that Keanu Reeves had on ''[[The Matrix (Film)|The Matrix]]'' films.
* The exchange of 'Big fan' and 'Why wouldn't you be?' was taken from a real life backstage encounter between Edgar Wright and ''The Hives'' singer Pelle Almqvist.
