Line 473:
* ''[[The Addams Family]]''
* ''[[The Big Sky]]'' Toby Peters met Jason Ward on the set during the filming of the Howard Hawks movie.
* ''[[Carmen Sandiego]]'': series of educational computer games which spawned a PBS game show (both about a fictional globe-trotting thief); Sister Marie and others in her age group can be expected to be quite familiar with them, and she has, at least once, made a joke about Carmen's propensity for completely impossible heists. These may be based on the exploits of the real thief named Carmen Sandiego
* ''[[Cheers]]'': As noted above, while ''Cheers'' exists as a TV show [[In-Universe]], Carla Tortelli works at the Jolly Redcap in Boston.
* ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia]]''. Including portions of ''Life's a Beach'' and one scene of ''Incubation Period'' being set aboard a yacht actually named ''Dawn Treader,'' and the afterlife shown in ''Beyond the Veil'' looking like it was ripped from the pages of ''The Last Battle''.
Line 519:
* ''[[Stripes]]'': In ''Hermione Granger and the Swiss Tournament'', mention is made of a large truck-like military vehicle designed by Willow Rosenberg and Ted Kord. Jack O'Neill calls it the "EM-50 Urban Assault Vehicle"; the context makes it clear this is not its official designation but another pop culture reference by O'Neill.
* ''[[Super Mario Brothers]]''
* ''[[Terminator]]''. Popular film series starring [[Jean-Claude Van Damme]] as the T-800 assassin. One factor in the Brane is that the lead characters of Reese and the T-800 are played be different actors in every version.
* ''[[Ultraman]]'' and the other [[Ultra Series]] shows would appear to exist, as suggested by [[Stargate Atlantis|Rodney McKay]] [[Freudian Slip|accidentally namechecking]] ''[[Ultraman Tiga]]'' in JoshuaAB's ''Ultra Shorts'' while demonstrating various armors provided to [[My Secret Identity|Andrew "Ultraman" Clements]] by the Canadian government. Not to mention that these armors all tend to be in the colors of the various Ultramen.
* ''[[Unbreakable]]''. There is mention in chapter 8 of ''Bone Deep'' of a movie with a villain whose bones were abnormally fragile, which may be an in-universe version of this film.
