Line 60:
* ''[[Dune]]''
* ''[[Hackers]]'': Willow deliberately lifts her handle as Terawatt's hacking expert -- "Acid Burn" -- from Angelina Jolie's character in this movie. Several characters notice and comment on it.
* ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'': Appears to have made it to the air a couple years earlier than in our timeline, as one of the SRI's original pair of hackers goes by "captainmal".
* ''[[The Herculoids]]'': Source of codenames for the India op, after a much-earlier joking threat by Jack to do so.
* ''[[The Incredible Hulk (TV series)|The Incredible Hulk]]'': The first time Alex really comprehends what Willow can do with a computer, and what she might have done to Larry Ellison and Oracle had she wanted to get revenge, she mutters the classic line "Don’t make me angry. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry" to herself.
Line 343:
* [[Older Than They Look]]: {{spoiler|Terawatt in the final epilogue, when we learn that Alex's powers apparently include arrested aging, and that 71 years later she still appears to be in her mid-twenties.}}
* [[Omnicidal Maniac]]s: The Collective is an entire organization of these, planning to kill off 99% of the world's population. However, at least some of them are doing so [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|to prevent what they see as an inevitable Malthusian catastrophe]]. After which they will rule what is left.
* [[Online Alias]]: Has a self-aware mix. Willow Rosenberg consciously lifts "Acid Burn" from ''[[Hackers]]'' to use when she becomes Terawatt's online support, but when she was younger she used "S4l1x480" (which cleverly points back to her, as ''salix'' is the genus of all willows, and 480 references a wavelength of light in the red portion of the visible spectrum). There was also P$ychon4ut, a [[The Cracker|villainous, misogynistic hacker]] she helped get sent to jail.
* [[One Steve Limit]]: When the Macks take in [[Firestarter|Charlene "Charlie" McGee]], they start calling her "Shar"; within the story this is part of hiding her identity from Shop agents who might still be hunting her, but on the meta level it's probably as much because there was already a character named "Charlie" in play.
** Averted with the probably-inevitable collision between Dr. Samantha Carter and Dr. Samantha Finn.
