According to the Mask Wikipedia article there were several references in that one "dying" scene. When "shot" at the first scene inside the Coco Bongo, the Mask's consequent "dying" dialogue references several classic literary moments: "Ya...got me partner!" - A good impression of Pat Buttram, a voice highly associated with Western films. "Tell ...

From the Visual Companion to The Cabin in the Woods: Some stuff had to get cut from the monster rampage sequence at the end. The Angry Molesting Tree, which you can glimpse in the elevator in one scene, got much more molest-y in another shot, which might wind up as a DVD extra. Also, one of Goddard's favorite monsters was Kevin, a sweet-looking guy who ...

It is not so much a reference to a single particular movie, but to all the archetypical action movies of that kind, starring a hard-boiled one-man hero (usually a cop) who has a meaty name (like John McLane, Jericho Jackson, Jack Slater) and kills bad-guys while giving cool one-liners. So no, it wasn't refering to an actual movie starring an actual Jack ...

You should probably be knowing that the movie itself is inspired from La jetée. If you have seen La jetée, you'd obviously notice that the movie is just a series of still frames with a narrator in the background. There is a scene in Twelve monkeys where Railly narrates a slide show about a insane soldier in World War I. And when Railly and Bruce Willis ...

For some reason I keep being drawn to The Magnificent Seven - but I have a feeling it's a John Ford film as mentioned elsewhere. Here's a couple of '7' shots anyway.

As I've written before, I don't watch westerns, but I just found a clip of Rango that shows the few minutes up to the above screencap. The surrounding area looks like Monument Valley, which is where John Ford is known to make his westerns. Feeling that Rango was looking to employ the well-known, I was concentrating on the John Ford/Monument Valley ...

Hmmm... Seem like you will have to be cautious as this reminds me of Mos Eisley Spaceport where you won't find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy: In case you don't know, this is from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.

I found this article in relation to the link between The Machinist and the Idiot: http://vanessa-appassamy.suite101.com/dostoyevsky-in-brad-andersons-the-machinist-a213347 There is also this article in relation to guilt within Dostoyevsky's Crime and Punishment: http://rebekahrichards.suite101.com/guilt-in-dostoyevskys-crime-and-punishment-a194380 I ...

According to the Wikipedia page for the movie, the director, cast and crew commentary on the DVD confirms that: The film contains homages to H.G. Wells, the films The Evil Dead, Zulu, Aliens, The Matrix and Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan. That means that the dialogue mention by you is directly referring to The Matrix.

I just stumbeled across this movie title the other day, and it reminded me of this question. The movie title was We Need To Talk About Kevin. I believe that this may have been the movie that was being referenced on the white board. here's part of the plot synopsis from Wikipedia: Adolescent Kevin Katchadourian (Ezra Miller) is in prison after ...
