* Film/Godzilla1998 has the scene where they show footage of a Japanese fisherman shouting 'Gojira!'. We then cut to the news anchor mistakenly calling the creature Godzilla, which makes him look extremely culturally insensitive, with the implication that the film is saying the same about Hollywood ever since they redubbed the original film in the fifties.

* In ''Film/ZackSnydersJusticeLeague'', Bruce Wayne/Batman introduces Alfred to the rest of the League by saying "Everyone, this is Alfred. I work for him." This is Bruce's acknowledgement that between building and maintaining all of his equipment and acting as his MissionControl, Alfred looks more like the real brains behind the whole Batman operation (although this had greater emphasis in ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice''.)

* ''Film/ChipNDaleRescueRangers2022'': [[spoiler:The film features an appearance from Ugly Sonic, the scrapped original design for the live-action Sonic from ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog2020''. Many of his scenes mercilessly mock the UnintentionalUncannyValley qualities of his design (especially his human teeth) and the resulting fan backlash that got him replaced. In-universe, Ugly Sonic seems to have coined that nickname ''himself'', as he's trying to do some AdamWesting in the hopes of spinning the backlash into an ironic fandom that he can then milk for convention appearances]]
