Clockwork Orange

I think the reference to it is too small for a full-fledged article. Heroe 21:26, 7 March 2007 (EST)

• No less than Rain Man or Alcoholics Anonymous. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 23:03, 7 March 2007 (EST)
• Or Princess Bride which was referenced in Parasite obliquely. Disney42 23:42, 7 March 2007 (EST)
  • At least we know for a fact this one was intentional.--Hardvice (talk) 00:06, 8 March 2007 (EST)

Halloween

I picked up on this earlier today when watching, I think it was, The Hard Part, on DVD.

Molly's line "You can't stop the boogeyman" is extremely similar to Tommy's line at the end of the original Halloween, "You can't kill the boogeyman." Think it's worth mentioning somewhere or am I just reading too much into something (again)? Erika 12:57, 17 September 2007 (EDT)

• Very possible, though it's a pretty general line that might simply mean what it means, and not be a reference to Halloween at all. We certainly don't need an article about Halloween, but I think if you want to put a note on The Hard Part, that'd be fine. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 14:21, 17 September 2007 (EDT)

In the Commentary for the Line

They referenced a couple of movies, the one I remember the most is North By Northwest during the West/Debbie chase scene. They also mention something earlier in the episode.Random guy 04:40, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
