This is where the "Wazzup" quote originates from; Scary Movie merely referenced that.


* When the skeletons ambush Doogal and his friends, one of them says "[[Film/TheShining Here's Johnny!]]". Another says "[[Creator/MontyPython Bring out your dead!]]", and another just flat-out says "Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean"--to which another tells him to stop with the Creator/{{Disney}} jokes. Another simply says "[[Film/ScaryMovie Wassup?]]".

While the original British version of the film contains a few references to other works, the American SameLanguageDub known as ''Doogal'' has a countless number of shout-outs. It is perhaps the most (in)famous aspect about the whole movie.
----
!! The Original Film
* When Ermintrude is rescuing Dougal, [[Film/MissionImpossible she is being lowered silently while tied to a rope.]]
* When the team discusses Zebedee's DisneyDeath, Dylan's way of mourning is by saying "[[Film/PulpFiction Zeb's dead, baby. Zeb's dead.]]"
* When the gang arrives at the temple where the second diamond is located and after Dougal pushes a button on the throne, [[Film/{{Entrapment}} several laser beams activate all around the room.]]
* As Dylan lists the martial arts he knows, one of them is [[Theatre/AnnieGetYourGun "anything-you-can-do"]].
* After Zeebad takes the second diamond, he asks them where the third diamond is. They refuse and promptly back away as Zeebad advances towards them while saying [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration "Resistance]] [[Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS3E26S4E1TheBestOfBothWorlds is futile."]] This reference is ([[ReferenceOverdosed fittingly]]) kept in the film's American redub.

!! ''Doogal''
* As Dylan turns her opera concert into a rock concert, he calls Ermintrude "Dairy Queen". When the moose finds Zeebad for the first time, he jokingly calls him the Music/BlueManGroup.
* When Soldier Sam struggles to walk after Zeebad activates him, Zeebad replies with "This ain't [[Theatre/TheNutcracker the ballet, nutcracker]]".
* After recruiting Sam into his plans, Zeebad mockingly calls Zebedee "[[Film/SongOfTheSouth Zebedee-Doo-Dah]]".
* When Train first appears, he pulls an ActorAllusion by saying "[[Creator/ChevyChase I'm the train, and you're not]]".
* Being a bunny, Dylan says "[[WesternAnimation/BugsBunny What's up, doc?]]" during the camping scene. Much later, during the credits, Creator/JudiDench says ThatsAllFolks verbatim.
* During the same scene, right before he goes to bed, Brian complains about [[Franchise/{{Halo}} Master Chief]] eating something.
* When Brian tries to communicate with the moose, he recites (and mangles) the hook from "[[Music/MichaelJackson Wanna Be Startin' Somethin']]". The moose likewise responds with "[[Music/PhilCollins Su-sussudio]]" and "[[Music/IronButterfly In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida]]".
* From his conversation with the moose, Brian erroneously states that the moose would [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} grant them three wishes]] if they stood still.
* As Doogal resists Zeebad's attempts to tell him about the diamonds' locations, he spitefully calls him [[WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman Frosty]].
* As Zeebad prepares to defeat Zebedee in their WizardDuel, he mentions that there would be only [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings one spring to rule them all]]. If that wasn't enough, he fancies himself as the Lord of the Springs immediately afterward. Sometime later, Dylan channels his inner Gollum when he obtains the first diamond, saying "My precious..." in his best Gollum impression.
* As Train crosses the bridge in the volcano, he repeats to himself, "[[Literature/TheLittleEngineThatCould I think I can, I think I can...]]".
* As Doogal and his friends find themselves trapped in the volcano thanks to Zeebad's meddling, Ermintrude states her intentions to go out singing like [[Music/ArethaFranklin Aretha]].
* After Dylan decides to modify Train's carriage (now turned into a boat thanks to Zebedee's box) into a makeshift balloon, he mentions that he got the idea from ''[[Series/PimpMyRide Pimp My Boat]]''.
* As Sam annoys Zeebad with his singing while on their rowboat, Zeebad recommends that he sings "[[Music/SimonAndGarfunkel The Sound of Silence]]" next (obviously meaning for him to stay silent). He calls Sam "Garfunkel" shortly after.
* When Doogal's team nears the island where one of the diamonds are, Dylan refers to it as [[Franchise/KingKong Skull Island]]--even commenting that it looks like it did in the movies. As the team prepares to land, he begins hoping that Kong hasn't awoken.
* As he and Zeebad near the temple where the second diamond is being held, Sam proudly calls themselves a couple of [[VideoGame/TombRaider tomb raiders]].
* After Doogal accidentally activates the temple's lasers, Dylan mentions that they're very Music/PinkFloyd.
* When Ermintrude volunteers to try and obtain the second diamond, she states that she was a dancer on ''Series/SoulTrain''.
* When the skeletons ambush Doogal and his friends, one of them says "[[Film/TheShining Here's Johnny!]]". Another says "[[Creator/MontyPython Bring out your dead!]]", and another just flat-out says "Franchise/PiratesOfTheCaribbean"--to which another tells him to stop with the Creator/{{Disney}} jokes. Another simply says "[[Film/ScaryMovie Wassup?]]".
* Ermintrude compares the aforementioned skeletons to Music/BoneThugsNHarmony and ''Film/DawnOfTheDead''.
* As Dylan rambles about the martial arts he knows, he starts by saying: "[[Film/TheMatrix I trained with Morpheus; I know kung fu]]". Other martial arts he claims to know include Creator/JohnWoo and Music/WuTangClan.
* Dylan soon makes another ''Matrix'' reference, asking to be referred to as Neo when he begins to fight the skeletons.
* As Ermintrude begins fighting the skeletons, some of her battle cries include [[Music/MCHammer "It's hammer time", "You can't touch this"]], and [[Film/TheKarateKid "Wax on, wax off"]].
* When the skeletons fuse into one giant skeleton, Doogal tries to pass himself and his friends off as [[Franchise/HarryPotter Muggles on their way to Hogwarts, as a pick-me-up for He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named]]. Needless to say, it doesn't work.
* After Brian realizes that the second diamond was taken as he and his friends were fighting the skeletons, Zeebad (who snatched it) remarked that he must have watched ''[[Series/CSICrimeSceneInvestigation CSI]]''. Zeebad then begins a speech thanking [[UsefulNotes/AcademyAward the Academy]] before he's interrupted by Sam.
* As he and his friends prepare to leave the temple, Doogal refers to it as the [[Film/IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom Temple of Doom]].
* During the train battle sequence, Zeebad refers to Train as [[WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends Thomas the Tank Engine]], while Sam is referred to as [[Film/AustinPowers Mini-Zee]] by Dylan.
* During the same sequence, after Sam refuses Zeebad's orders to execute Brian, invoking the Geneva Convention, Zeebad rebukes him, not caring if it's a ''Franchise/StarTrek'' convention. To drive the point home, Zeebad orders Sam to [[BeamMeUpScotty beam Brian out]], and even says the derogatory term for the ''Star Trek'' fanbase, "trekkies".
* When Sam tries to tell Zeebad about the pressure of their train being too much to handle, Zeebad, mistaking Sam's comments for another type of "pressure", gives him advice a la [[Series/DrPhil Dr. Phil]], even name-dropping him.
* As Doogal and his friends recover from the train battle, Brian mentions being [[Film/DazedAndConfused dazed and confused]] as he admits to accidentally spilling the beans on the third diamond's location to Zeebad.
* On the villains' side of the aftermath, Zeebad, after deciding that Sam is of no more use to him, says: "[[Series/TheApprentice As my apprentice, you're fired!]]".
* When Doogal begins waking up his team upon finding their home village, Dylan mentions that he was dreaming about jamming with [[Music/PaulMcCartney [=McCartney=]]].
* When Eemintrude uses her voice to free the people trapped in the roundabout, Zeebad compares it to the Emergency Broadcast System.
* During the final battle, Dylan encourages Ermintrude to [[Film/BendItLikeBeckham bend it like Beckham]].
* Even the credits have a couple of shout-outs of their own, such as the Moose calling Zeebad a [[Franchise/TheSmurfs Smurf]].
* Trailer-only: as Doogal and his allies overlook a vast area of snow done by Zeebad's magic (actually their home village), Ermintrude ribs about how the then-upcoming ''[[WesternAnimation/IceAgeTheMeltdown Ice Age 2]]'' was being shot there.
