Line 2:
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: [[Michael Giacchino|But of course.]] Of particular note is the final two tracks, "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aehG1bdJzMY Letting Go]" and "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrrZhxPBJPY Super 8 Suite]".
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Carey, due to his rather vulgar nature and his love for explosions and fire.
** [[Shout -Out|Which sounds oddly similar to]] [[Michael Bay|a certain explosion loving movie director.]]
** Colonel Nelec.
* [[HSQ]]: Hits a ''massive'' spike during the train-crash scene.
Line 8:
* [[Its the Same So It Sucks]]:
** Hardly ''exactly'' the same, but it's really very similar to ''[[Cloverfield]]'' (produced by J.J. Abrams) in a lot of ways.
** Considering that the entire movie is a splicing together of ''[[Cloverfield]]'', ''[[ETE.T. the Extraterrestrial (Film)|ET the Extraterrestrial]]'', and ''[[The Goonies]]'', this could be said of the entire story. Though, YMMV on whether that makes this film a nifty homage to the films of Abrams' childhood, or an awful checklist of cliches from better movies.
*** Of course, [[Steven Spielberg|the man behind 2/3s]] of those mentioned (and also ''[[Close Encounters of the Third Kind]]'' and ''[[Jaws (Film)|Jaws]]'' which this movie also homages) was the producer of this film (and not just executive, he was greatly involved in it).
*** As a bit of a [[Take That]] in the audio commentary, JJ Abrams says when the Amblin logo appears "to the people who say we copied ''E.T.'', he actually appears in the movie."
