1* Quite a few of them to ''[[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 MST3K]]'', from his use of TheStinger to the numerous name-drops of movies featured on the show (especially ''Film/PodPeople'').
2-->'''Snob:''' Our heroes, ladies and gentlemen.
3* He does a whole ton of references to ''Film/AClockworkOrange'' in his {{review}} of the porn spoof, ''A Clockwork Orgy''.
4* Any reference to "centipedes" is basically inviting a clip of "[[Film/TheHumanCentipede HE STITCHED US ASS-TO-MOUTH!]]"
5%% Add some context
6%%* [[Film/KungPowEnterTheFist "That's a lot of nuts!"]]
7* In the ''Blood Feast'' review, he says that a group of men dressed in stereotypically '50s-early '60s suits are [[Series/MadMen trying to come up with an ad campaign for Lucky Strike cigarettes]]. In fact, just any man dressed in stereotypically '50s-early '60s clothes that appears in a film reviewed will probably soon be called "Mad Men" or "Don Draper."
8* At the start of his ''Film/AxEm'' review, on discovering that it ''does'' fit his cutoff date, the Snob runs outside and reenacts the notorious "Oh, God, oh, man" sequence from ''Film/ToughGuysDontDance''.
9* The title card for "Brad Tries Beaver" has [[WesternAnimation/TheAngryBeavers Norbert and Daggett]].
10* The ''Faces of Death'' review ends with a clip from ''[[Creator/ConanOBrien Muppet Faces of Death]]''.
11* In the ''Geek Maggot Bingo'' review, a character gets struck by lightning out of nowhere, causing the Snob to wonder if [[WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd he walked further as Hyde than he did as Jekyll.]] Of course, he could just be referencing the ''VideoGame/DrJekyllAndMrHydeNES'' game itself, but would anybody know about it if it wasn't for the Nerd?
12** Likewise, in ''Violent Shit 4.0'', Brad tires of covering his ears to block out the soundtrack. "Put on something else! I don't care if ''it's'' also repetitive! ''(plays VideoGame/FridayThe13th NES theme)'' Ahh. Much better."
13* The trailer for the Cinema Snob movie is an accurate recreation of a rather odd trailer for ''Film/HouseOnTheEdgeOfThePark'', complete with the music, dramatic faces and bad typefaces. Some people didn't get the joke and admonished Brad for creating such a cheap trailer...
14* In the ''Film/{{Xtro}}'' review, when the character played by Creator/MaryamDabo is killed by a killer clown:
15--> '''Snob:''' All he wanted to do was to scare Film/{{the living daylights}} out of her.
16* In his review of ''Beyond the Valley of the Dolls'', he comments on a vertigo-inducing montage by saying "That's a lot of words to say 'Everybody got AIDS and shit!'" referencing both ''Film/{{Showgirls}}'' and WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick.
17** He also warns [=Z-Man=] against making a drink from pop rocks and soda in the same review, as the Snob thinks that's what "killed WesternAnimation/HeckleAndJeckle."
18* In his review of ''The Adventures of Hercules II'' (the sequel to ''Film/Hercules1983''), there's a reference to the {{Demythification}} in ''Film/{{Hercules 2014}}'':
19--> '''Lady''': They said that Zeus sent him up to the heavens and placed on the brightest stars.
20--> '''Disembodied Voice''': Destiny says it's you who must seek him. Go with Glossia to the forbidden valley. That's where you shall meet him.
21--> '''Lady''': ''(happily whispering)'' Hercules.
22--> '''Disembodied Voice''': Yes, the invincible--
23--> '''Lady''': ''(excitement)'' Hercules!
24--> '''Cinema Snob''': Now, now, don't get ''too'' excited. He could just be a mercenary who carries severed heads and skinned lions with him.
25* In his review of ''Film/TheApple'', Mr. Boogalow apparently works at the "Holy [[Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda Triforce]] Building".
26* In the ''Film/ShockTreatment'' review: "[[MemeticMutation Shut up and take my money]] [[LampshadeHanging before I quote more]] WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}."
27* The ''Film/{{Zombi 2}}'' review mentions WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd's video on [[OddlyNamedSequel sequel]] [[DolledUpInstallment titles]] (which included the ''Zombi'' series):
28-->If I were to make a video on the sequel-baiting titles of the series that would make me [[http://cinemassacre.com/2006/12/07/chronologically-confused-about-bad-movie-and-video-game-sequel-titles/ chronologically confused]]!
29* At one point in his review of ''The Devil with Hitler'', he mocks Minister Sukiyaki's [[ValuesDissonance incredibly stereotypical and dated characterization]] by saying "[[VideoGame/PunchOut Sushi, Kamikaze, Fujiyama, Nippon-ichi]]".
30* In the beginning of his review of ''Film/MissVelmasMostIncrediblyMagnificentChristmasWeek'', he describes Miss Velma as being his favorite ''Series/AmericanHorrorStory'' character by Jessica Lange.
31** He then goes on to describe the story around the Christmas tree as having shifted from [[WesternAnimation/ACharlieBrownChristmas "tiny Charlie Brown Christmas tree"]] to [[Film/NationalLampoonsChristmasVacation "Clark's huge Christmas vacation tree"]].
