* Iron Man and Spider-Man blast a hole in Ebony Maw's ship and he's hurled into space, a deliberate Shout-Out to ''Film/{{Alien}}'', where the titular alien is killed in the same manner. During the scuffle on Titan, when Spider-Man encounters Mantis, he freaks out because he thinks she's going to lay eggs in him à la facehugger.

* The Russos are known fans of anime, and Thanos receiving the Soul Stone is a faithful recreation of [[Anime/{{Berserk}} Griffith during the Eclipse]]. Like Griffith, he sacrifices his loved one for power before sitting up in a shallow lake of water with the stone in his palm as a reddish solar eclipse shines in the backdrop.

* As Strange and Stark are arguing, Peter tries to intervene to support Stark. Strange is confused about their relationship, and asks if Peter is Stark's ward, just like another [[Franchise/{{Batman}} billionaire playboy]] who also has a young protegee.

* When Iron Man first goes up against Ebony Maw, he refers to him as "[[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants Squidward]]". In the French version, he instead calls him "[[Franchise/HarryPotter Voldemort]]".
* In the commentary, the writers specifically say the shot of Maw's hand being burned by the housing of the Eye of Agamotto is a ShoutOut to ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk''.

* At one point during the Battle on Titan, Doctor Strange briefly takes on a multi-armed appearance reminiscent of the [[UsefulNotes/{{Hinduism}} Hindu god Vishnu's Vishvarupa form]] from the ''Literature/BhagavadGita'' to intimidate Thanos. Made all the more appropriate considering that Vishnu boasted that he was "time grown old" as he took on that form; Strange of course is the keeper of the time stone, which Thanos is after in that particular fight.
