* [[Actor Allusion]]:
** Just before he's launched into the Zone, Richards promises that [[The Terminator|"I'll be back."]] To say nothing of [[Richard Dawson]]'s role as a game show host.
** Sub Zero is inexplicably introduced as a professor, just like his actor.
** Killian refers to Fireball as the "number one rusher"; Jim Brown, who played Fireball, was the running back for the Cleveland Browns, and once held the record for the most career rushing yards. Fireball also yells "Win one for the Zero", a play on the famous ''[[Knute Rockne, All American]]'' [[Beam Me Up, Scotty|not-quote]], "Win one for the Gipper."
Line 28:
** [[The Fugitive|Andrew Davis]] was originally going to direct the film (after three previous directors pulled out) but was fired a week into production due to going over-budget and being four days behind schedule. Paul Michael Glaser (Starsky from ''[[Starsky and Hutch (TV series)|Starsky and Hutch]]'') finished the film.
