* Archer 1999 is largely about a group of colorful misfits having space adventures. This could be a reference to Firefly. The most obvious parallel is that Rey serves as the ship's "courtesan" while in Firefly, Inera does the same thing.

* Music/KennyLoggins has a [[Film/PulpFiction mysterious briefcase issuing an ominous glow]]. The episode even references the popular (though {{jossed}}, see [[http://www.snopes.com/movies/films/pulpfiction.asp here]]) ''Pulp Fiction'' fan theory that the briefcase is glowing because it contains the soul of someone who made a deal with the Devil.

* ''Archer 1999'' is drowning in references to ''Film/{{Alien}}'', but "Cubert" is particularly explicit about it, from Carol nearly choking at the dinner table in a way that evokes the birth of the xenomorph, to a particularly cracked out Archer trying to asphyxiate Lana with a rolled-up magazine like Ash did to Ripley.

In fact, Lana's appearance in this season evokes Ripley, particularly her hair.
