Jul 15, 2018 at 23:58 comment added Alvaro Montoro Not a movie, but futurama contains references to future episodes (for example, in the pilot, some things can be seen that are explained or are part of the plot at later seasons)

Nov 14, 2016 at 0:29 comment added VGR I seem to recall the end credits of the Christopher Reeve Superman movie having something like “Coming soon: Superman II.” Which isn’t surprising, given the appearance of Zod & company at the beginning.

Nov 13, 2016 at 21:22 comment added Eric Towers What's your position on prequels? One could take the position that Star Wars Episodes IV-VI are an exceptionally long reference to Episodes I-III, which came out a bit later...

Nov 12, 2016 at 19:32 comment added chepner I think not quite the same, but O Brother, Where Art Thou? can be thought of as the movie that the protagonist of Sullivan's Travels wanted to make.

Nov 12, 2016 at 16:07 comment added Michael Lorton @oals -- in Back To The Future Part II, Marty watches a clip from A Fistful Of Dollars where the Clint Eastwood character hides an iron plate under his poncho, and in Part III, he plays the same trick himself, but the two movies were actually scripted and filmed together, so it's just foreshadowing (and a certain amount of Chekhov's Gun). Even if they were unrelated movies, I'm looking for a reference from a movie to a later movie, not two movies sharing thematic elements.

Nov 11, 2016 at 20:29 comment added Michael Lorton @mgarciaisaia -- Nah, I'm not counting defictionalization. I mean, you can buy Willy Wonka candy, Duff Beer, and Bubba Gump shrimp.
Nov 11, 2016 at 20:26 comment added mgarciaisaia Does the then-fake trailer of Machete in Grindhouse/Planet Terror count? There's also a Simpson's episode in which Bart names "Rocky VII - Adriane's Revenge" - but that one didn't come true :(

Nov 11, 2016 at 18:26 comment added old_timer there are many instances of end credits and/or scenes in the end credits referring to future movies. The bond movies for a while ended with watch for bond in. Thor, Iron man, and others had scenes implying at least that there was a future something, etc. Since this question is so incredibly broad, the answer is there is no doubt there is at least one movie. Many movies, esp these days know what is planned for the future, some shoot the whole series at one time and release them every year or two so they definitely know.
Nov 11, 2016 at 18:16 comment added Walt (BTW, on the topic of foresight, see this Simpsons clip. It's from 2000. :/)
Nov 11, 2016 at 18:06 comment added Walt @GustavoGabriel I read that article before, but it seems more like a list of coincidences. That Tuff Turf thing is still a very cool find, though. BTW, Pixar is known for planting references for future productions in almost all of their films, sometimes years in advance.
Nov 11, 2016 at 17:52 comment added Gustavo Gabriel I found an article that talks about something realted to what you want: comingsoon.net/extras/features/… , if you find it usefull I can change this comment as an answer...
Nov 11, 2016 at 17:42 comment added Michael Lorton When they coin the name "Deadpool", someone says, "Sounds like a franchise!"
Nov 11, 2016 at 17:41 comment added Gustavo Gabriel Deadpoll actually mentions deadpool 2 in the post credits scene =)

Nov 11, 2016 at 17:35 comment added Michael Lorton @matt_black -- if I have to. I mean, straight up promos, from "James Bond will return in..." to "I am putting together a team" aren't that interesting, but they would technically qualify.
Nov 11, 2016 at 17:34 comment added Napoleon Wilson @matt_black Doesn't seem to be a direct reference, though. Afterall every film's story prepares for the story of its sequel.
Nov 11, 2016 at 17:33 comment added matt_black Are you prepared to consider the common movie trope in modern movies (especially superhero franchise movies) where the post-credit sequence has discussion/teasers/clips from further movies not yet made as an example?

Nov 11, 2016 at 17:00 comment added Michael Lorton @AnkitSharma -- a candidate, yes. I was hoping for something organic, rather than a straight-out teaser, but make that an answer and I'll upvote it.
Nov 11, 2016 at 16:44 comment added Ankit Sharma Like Batman v Superman was refered in I am legend?
