* Hyper's "my life is hell" and "you're a whiny pathetic loser" are a repeat of Critic's angstiest moments from the commercials and the Scooby Doo review.

There's also the door scene again, where he actually goes outside this time, because as Schmuck said, he's got no reason to stay unlike before.

* In the ''Film/SimonSez'' review, the breakdown violin music from the commercials special is playing again when he's so overjoyed that someone (Lupa) actually listened to him for once he's got a whole new perspective on life. What makes it this trope and not TriumphantReprise is that it's a YankTheDogsChain.
* His psychotic breakdown in "fuck-ups part three" starts off being a repeat of his ''Film/BattlefieldEarth'' tantrum, but then goes into screeching about how stupid and awful everyone is.
* In the ''BluesBrothers'' game review over on the DVD, his getting up in the morning is a forcedly happy version of his morning routine in his look on sports movies.
* In The Review Must Go On, [[spoiler: the Critic reminds Doug of when he talked about a character taking on a life of their own in ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee'', and uses that to scare the shit out of him]].
* ''Son Of The Mask'' mockingly plays Santa Christ's “we all love Santa Christ” theme song after he takes a level in jerkass and tells Critic he's meant to suffer.
* The first two reboot opening themes have a clip of a scene conclusion that involved Doug talking to Critic, but while the [[WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee first]] was Critic exploding PeacefulInDeath after Doug told him how proud he was, the [[http://blip.tv/nostalgiacritic/nc-the-last-airbender-6637022 second]] is Critic leaving after Doug tells him he hates him.
* In “Are You Sick Of Let It Go”, Tamara innocently asks if Critic wants to build a snowman and he punches her. In Hyper's Midwest Media Expo vlog, the titular fangirl asks the same thing, only not so innocently as Critic looks like he's going to cry-slash-throw up and Rob makes rape jokes.
* In ''Alaska'', he mentioned his abusive dad, saying “I remember the last time I said "this is the nineties, old man" to my dad... i-it really was the last time.” in a twitchy, sad and traumatized tone. In ''The Uncanny Valley'' review a few years later, with the exact same facial expressions and tone of voice, he says “I remember the last time I snuck into a woman's room and watched her sleep... let's just say it really was the last time”.
* At the end of "Old vs New: Amazing Spider-Man", the Hyper Fangirl puts on Critic's hat and jacket (with same camera shots) like he did in "The Review Must Go On", adding a possible TakeThat to the girls who only got into him from there and don't care about anything previous. Even bleeds into real life. [[https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=687545554645242&id=127127037353766 “Uh oh”]] was the only thing he said in regards to linking “The Review Must Go On” too.
* The “pathway to knowledge” scene in ''Film/TheMatrixReloaded'' meshes a few scenes from WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee together; the shot of Critic in front of the door, punching the PlotHole/opening the fridge with a determined look on his face (and being taken over by light), and seeing both a “creator” and a script of the movie/episode he's in.

* Until it turns into Joker/Alfred HomoeroticSubtext, ''Film/TheLegendOfZorro'' review has Malcolm in Joker make-up, Doug as Batman and all in the exact same position as they were when WebVideo/DemoReel did their Batman parody.
* In ATG 15 and Critic's “Review Must Go On” review, both hope whoever created them doesn't get his decency back (ATG not wanting to die, Critic not wanting to admit that his comeback kinda sucked) and then they get immediately smacked down by Doug.
* Critic at the start of ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad'', in both words and way he's standing, echoes the Lorax review. The [[invoked]] FandomHeresy shtick doesn't last though, as Curiosa isn't at all a StrawCharacter and steers him to the conclusion that ''Fury Road'' is genuinely as amazing as everyone says it is.
* In ''Christmas With The Kranks'', young Critic is heartbroken about people not liking him and thinking reviewing would fix that, echoing a similar sentiment (and delivery) from WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee where Critic is upset about everything he does having a negative impact on someone and wanting to fix it.
* In an Ask That Guy episode, Ask That Guy and his marriage to the GPS (played by Doug's wife) fails, they say “[[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons can we still be friends/only if we're the best]]” and then he shoots her. At the end of ''The Phantom of the Opera'', Critic (who sounds miserable about it and has just called her out again) and Hyper have the same interaction, and then he finds out she's dating someone else and gets angry that he was still being stalked even with that.
* While [[spoiler: stopped by Rob]], and much like what he does in PQH, the ''Film/SpeedRacer'' crossover has him kidnap Sage and want to keep him, like what Hyper did to him in ''Princess Diaries II''.
