Line 2:
* [[Actor Allusion]]: In the 2005 film, Will Ferrell's character breaks one leg, then later breaks the other. Mustafa, who Will played in ''[[Austin Powers|Austin Powers 2]]'', had the same misfortune.
* [[Creator Backlash]]: The subject of sort of a meta-example (in addition to the obvious in-universe example). In season 4 of ''[[Curb Your Enthusiasm]]'', Mel casts Larry David as Max on Broadway, knowing he's a terrible actor, in the hopes that The Producers will finally die because he's sick of it (see?). The season finale covers the debut performance with Larry in the role, and he starts to falter but manages to turn it around, ensuring the show's continued longevity.
* [[Dawson Casting]]: Lorenzo St. DuBois seems to be a 50 year old hippie, not recent college graduate. (Of course, that could be the ''point''.)
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: In the 2005 movie, [[Doctor Who|Captain]] [[Torchwood|Jack]] [[John Barrowman|Harkness]] [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|sings "Springtime for Hitler."]]
** [[The Lion King|Timon and Simba]] are the main characters with [[Anchorman|Ron Burgundy]] and [[Kill Bill|The Bride]] as Liebkind and Ulla respectively.
