** The MouseTrap sequence in "Bringing Down the Mouse" is an homage to ''Film/MouseHunt''.
** In "Champion Charlie Brown," Lucy quotes a line from ''Bring Me the Head of Charlie Brown''.
* Casita keeping Hiccup and Toothless from stealing breakfast from the Madrigals via a ShellGame in ''Fanfic/CanIKeepHim?action=source'' brings to mind Shifu doing the same to Po and Po doing it to Tai Lung in ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda''.
* ''Fanfic/CaptainsCrash'':
** In the very first paragraph, Spitfire muses that "life is like a hurricane"; not only is this a direct quotation of the first line in the ''Franchise/DuckTales'' cartoon intro, but it also calls to mind the famous "life is like a box of chocolates" intro from ''Film/ForrestGump''.
** The title of the story stems from Rainbow Dash's hated childhood nickname.
** After Launchpad emerges from his crash, he proclaims himself "singed but triumphant", repeating himself a second time after tripping, and giving up on a third repetition after tripping again. This is a gag from ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'', where Launchpad was a secondary protagonist.

*** In addition, Eddy's portal gun has a button that disables both portals, like in ''VideoGame/PortalTheFlashVersion''.

'''Twilight''': Yup. "Tomorrow" tomorrow.
** In chapter 7 and chapter 8, when Eddy yells "Hold the phone!", [[http://fav.me/d57jwvo this vector image]] from ''{{WesternAnimation/Sheep in the Big City}}'' is added, as a reference to a RunningGag on that show. The second time this happens, [[BreakingTheFourthWall the author gets called on by Eddy.]]
** A mess-up of John's part in chapter 9 has him initially register the Floor Plans in the Court Record as "[[VideoGame/PokemonVietnameseCrystal EDD!PLAN BAG FUCK]]".
* ''Fanfic/TheDragonAndTheBow'': There are several throughout the story.
** There are multiple shoutouts to ''Film/TheThirteenthWarrior''. The Vendal are based off of the Wendal, and the Viking prayer is directly from the movie. Chapter five, "Eaters of the Dead," is named after [[Literature/EatersOfTheDead the book's]] original title.
** Chapter eighteen is titled ''[[Literature/ADanceWithDragons A Dance with a Dragon]]''.
** While the trio are fleeing the Monstrous Nightmare with Fishlegs carrying them, Hiccup looks back and shouts, ''[[Film/JurassicPark "Must go faster! Must go faster!"]]''
** During a funeral for the Vikings killed in a Vendal raid on Berk, Stoick sings ''[[Film/TheHobbit "Misty Mountains Cold"]]''.
** Merida sings ''[[Film/JoyeuxNoel "Hymne des Fraternisés"]]'' to soothe an angry Nadder.

** [[spoiler: When Loki mentions how his brother Thor is also known as Raiden, the image he shows is of a man [[Franchise/MortalKombat wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat]].]]

* ''Fanfic/TheDragonAndTheButterflyWhiteout'':
** One of the imaginary friends Pedro conjures is a "[[WesternAnimation/FostersHomeForImaginaryFriends bizarrely smug blue blob]]".
** Many of the monsters Pedro makes for Karla's impromptu obstacle course resemble various badniks from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1'', with the Orca chasing her at the end being based off of the Killer Whales that chase Sonic in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure'', ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006'' and ''VideoGame/SonicGenerations''.
** Theater!Hiccup shouts "[[Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay Hasta la vista, baby!]]" during their battle with the Red Death puppet.
** Hiccup describes Karla's FreudianExcuse as [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast wanting adventure in the great, wide somewhere]].
** Three of the kids the Madrigals interact with at Camp Ingerman include [[Fanfic/RiseOfTheBraveTangledDragons a plucky blonde dressed in pink named Punzie, a red-headed girl with a passion for archery named Meri and a smug, platinum-blond kid named Jack]].

Sound familir anyone?]]. [[spoiler:In Chapter 17, the part where Glacio and his army attack the Crystal Empire is a reference to ''{{WesternAnimation/Mulan}}'' where the Huns breach the Great Wall.]]
* ''Fanfic/EquestriaGirlsFriendshipSouls'':
** Applejack [[Film/IronMan mentions]] certain "fella wit fancy armour suit from them big budget superher flicks" before using her [[HandBlast gauntlets and boots]] to fly.
** Confirmed by WordOfGod, [[spoiler:Firefly's]] Fullbring "Ace of Sky" is one to HumongousMecha {{Anime}} like Gundam, able to manifest constructs including AttackDrones, [[PowerGivesYouWings Energy Wings]], a {{BFG}} [[GatlingGood Gatling gun]] and a LaserBlade, among other abilities.
** Gaw is one big one to [[{{Kaiju}} the giant Japanese monster movie franchise]] as well as ''Fanfic/TheBridge''. She is named after a very obscure one tied to King Kong lore.
** Chapter 54, featuring the climatic showdown between Sunset and Platinum during the Soul Society Arc, is titled "[[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire A Showdown of Ice and Fire]]".
** Twilight suspects that the Seele Schneiders were created by a Quincy who was a ''Franchise/StarWars'' fan.
** Chapter 96, featuring the Equestria Girls and Shadowbolts working together to fight a large sea monster, is titled "[[Manga/AttackOnTitan Attack on Kraken]]".
** Grogar and Pinkie Pie/Pinkamena's fight has one of the battle gags being the former thrown into the courtroom of ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'', complete with the series' theme in acapella (with Grogar expressing his hatred for the genre of music).
** Chapter 124: Clover firing rapid-fire Kido spells at [[spoiler:Gaia Everfree]] and her physically-superior opponent's annoyed and angry reaction to continuously being battered by explosions is more or less [[WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged Tien blasting Semi-Perfect Cell]].
** The fish people that [[spoiler:kidnap Aria and Sonata]] are [[TabletopGame/ForgottenRealms sahuagin]].

*** as well as her [[Anime/GhostInTheShell ripping open a tank with her 'hands']]
* ''Fanfic/FateOfTheClans'':
** Seri says that Izumo "knows a woman who uses puppets and is really good at prosthetics". That description, the fact this is set in the Franchise/{{Nasuverse}}, and that woman is likely an underworld contact since SCEPTER 4 doesn't have her info means she's likely Touko Aozaki from ''Literature/TheGardenOfSinners''.
** Cú Chulainn talks about [[SupernormalBindings chains whose hold get stronger the]] [[Characters/FateStayNightGilgamesh higher the captive's Divinity]].
* The sequel to ''Fanfic/TheFirstSaniwa'' features a BrickJoke about a NoodleIncident in which Yorimitsu finds out what the word ''tenshiki'' means. This is a reference to a classic rakugo play of the same name: a monk gets diagnosed by a doctor and the latter brings up the term ''tenshiki''. Not knowing what it means, the monk asks his apprentice. The apprentice doesn't know either, so he goes around the neighborhood asking only to find nobody else knowing either, until he reaches the doctor himself. The doctor reveals ''tenshiki'' is actually a fancy medical term for flatulence. Afraid he may get scolded by the monk if he tells the truth, the apprentice makes up ''his own'' definition for ''tenshiki'' by way of AlternateCharacterReading.

** Act 1 Part 8 introduces Jones, a bit character voiced by Creator/GavinFree in the actual show. Jones' depiction in this story is much more in line with Gavin's goofy demeanour in Creator/AchievementHunter, complete with speaking with confusing British-isms and a moment where he refers to Caboose as "Mi-cool".
** Act 1 Part 9 introduces two {{Original Character}}s Reynard Vaez Jr and Mike "the Rage" Mogar, both of which are {{Expies}} of Achievement Hunters Creator/RayNarvaezJr. and Creator/MichaelJones

--->'''Tucker:''' Aw, cheer up Caboose! It's not like you could have eaten it with your helmet on anyway!\\
'''Caboose:''' Yeah, but I still had dreams...\\
'''Tucker:''' Well, no dreams for you!

** Bardiche's upgrade forms include two new Barrier Jackets: [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED Strike Form]] and [[Manga/MobileSuitGundamSEEDAstray Astray Form]].

*** "[[KneelBeforeZod I said...]] '''[[ComicBook/{{Loki}} KNEEL!]]'''" [[labelnote:Note]]When Adel makes his presence known in the human world and asks anyone to kneel. WordOfGod states it gives the impression that Adel is essentially what Loki would have been like if he became king of Asgard by dethroning Odin.

** [[LetsPlay/VanossGamingAndCompany STREME SPOATS!]]

** At the beginning of the story, Big Mac is shown reading what appears to be a pony version of ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings''.
* ''Fanfic/MyLittleCastlevania'': The author was really going for one or two Shout Outs per chapter, and it shows:
** [[Literature/{{Cujo}} A small child is attacked by a St. Bernard that used to be such a sweet dog.]]
** [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaI “It’s a secret to everypony.”]]
** Several lines are actually lyrics from different songs, ranging from Music/TheEagles' "Hotel California" to Music/MichaelJackson's "Thriller".

** Link makes one to ''VideoGame/{{Pikmin}}'' in Chapter 17 of the second story, where he compares the Punies that are following the team to Olimar's Pikmin.[[note]]If you check the previously linked page, you'll see that that actually ''is'' a shout out to ''Pikmin'' in [[VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor the original game.]][[/note]]
** "Sheesh Mario, pull out an [[Franchise/FireEmblem Ike]] quote on us why don't you?"
** In chapter 45 of ''Super'', after Bowser calls Luigi "the guy in green", Luigi asks Bowser if he doesn't even remember his name. This is a reference to ''VideoGame/MarioAndLuigiSuperstarSaga'', where ''nobody'' [[ForgettableCharacter remembers Luigi's name]].
** Bowser has an obsession with the phrase "[[Anime/DragonBallZ over 9000]]".
* Episode 1 of ''[[http://youtu.be/aSYtBqPZDGc Phoenix Wright: Speed Attorney]]'' contains references to other ''VisualNovel/AceAttorney'' crossovers, specifically ''WebAnimation/TurnaboutStorm'', ''[[http://youtu.be/7itpAVrpD-s Devil's Attorney]]'' and ''[[http://youtu.be/KUghlcqjh3I Phoenix Wright in the Mario World]]''. Phoenix brushes off the events of those fanfics as being AllJustADream due to too much coffee before bed, but Tails reminds him that they did, in fact, happen, as he brought a newspaper from Ponyville to remind Phoenix of the trial against Rainbow Dash.
* ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/778634/chapters/1465835 Port-Ed]]'': [[WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy Nazz]] claims that her cousin worked part-time at [[{{VideoGame/Portal}} Aperture Science]] and supposedly was also a test subject of the ASHPD. Despite what one review guessed, [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4821436/ it's not Chell.]] (The author was glad the betareader of the story kept this shout out.)
* ''Fanfic/{{Reformations}}'': In this Teen Titans/Ranma 1/2 crossover, the author notes directly state that Ranma's reaction to his nightmare of Kuno's love confession was inspired by Vegeta's reaction to Goku's Kaioken when they fought on Earth.
* ''Fanfic/RevengeOfLavan'': The scientific name of [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyTVSpecials the witchweed plant]] is ''[[Series/KyoryuSentaiZyuranger Bandora]] [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers repulsus]]''.

* ''Fanfic/SpinelsNewBestFriend'': In chapter 6, when Spinel is put in the dressing room at Carousel Boutique, she's given a bunch of pictures for inspiration on what to make herself look like for her Grand Galloping Gala outfit. She takes of picture of a frog. She later busts out of the room, having added a black top hat and bowtie to her outfit, and holding a black cane.

* ''Fanfic/StarTrekPhoenix'':

* ''Fanfic/SuperSentaiVsPowerRangersTheLiveblog'' contains several shout-outs toward not only ''Power Rangers'' and ''Super Sentai'', but other works as well.
** The subplot in the ''Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger vs. Power Rangers Samurai'' liveblog mentions that it's inspired by the skits-in-reviews a la WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic, which continued in the ''Super Sentai vs. Power Rangers''' liveblog's arc.
** The elemental attacks that some of the All-Stars and Scouts perform, such as Solarbeam, Flamethrower, and Petal Dance, are named after and based on several {{Franchise/Pokemon}} moves.
** Some of Radiguet's lines and mannerisms are based on [[VideoGame/PokemonBlackAndWhite Ghetsis]].
-->'''Radiguet''': "And soon, I—no, we—will rule!"
** After Aka Red gives Sean a choice to either ascend as the Ultimate Red Legendary Ranger but cursed to wander forever or die, the latter not only calls the former out, but he makes his own rules. This is similar to the final episode of ''Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica'', where Madoka becomes hope and makes new rules to how the world will be run.
*** For another couple ''PMMM'' shoutouts, Rika says that the "Ultimate" in "Ultimate Red Legendary Ranger" was used as a nod to it without wanting to spoil it. [[spoiler:It's in reference to "Ultimate Madoka", and the Ultimate Red Legendary Ranger later becomes like a god in the Ranger worlds.]] Later in Act 33, in her despair, Rika mutters "...I'm such an idiot" before the Eldritch takes her, similar to what happened to Sayaka before she's turned into a witch.
** [[spoiler:Sean's ascension]] is also taken from the Nostalgia Critic merging with the Plot Hole in ''WebVideo/ToBoldlyFlee'', as admitted by the blogger.
* Many in How I Learned to Love the Wild Horse.

"Oddly specific..."
** Ranma's ring tone for his girlfriend Clover, is "Light your Heart Up" which is the theme song for Makonshoku Mako of ''Anime/KillLaKill''.
** The night Ranma and Samantha went all the way is the same night an amateur juggler broke into a mad scientist's lab and started dropping vials of Chronitons from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'', which is why the pair had very brief moments of clarity when they lost control over their hormones.
* ''Fanfic/TemporalAnomaly'': In Chapter 8 of the story, the chess match between [[Series/KamenRiderZiO Sougo/Oma Zi-O]] and [[VideoGame/Drakengard3 One]] plays out identically to the mind chess match between Solas and Iron Bull in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'', which itself is a reenactment of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immortal_Game The Immortal Game.]]
* ''Fanfic/TheDragonAndTheButterfly''
** [[Recap/TheDragonAndTheButterflyChapter37 Chapter 37: X Marks the Spot]]
*** Camilo (pretending to be a GateGuardian) announces himself by saying ''"[[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} Who dares disturb my slumber?]]"''

---> '''Hiccup''': Uh... green.\\
'''Isabela''': Anything but pink.

* ''Fanfic/TheManyDatesOfDannyFenton'': [[spoiler: In the ending where Danny marries [[WesternAnimation/SabrinaTheAnimatedSeries Sabrina Spellman]], they have a daughter named Tabitha. Tabitha is the name of a character from ''Series/{{Bewitched}}'', another series about witches.]]
* ''Fanfic/ArielAndBelle'':
** In chapter 10, Ariel introduces Belle to a flock of Swablu. Swablu are bird Pokémon introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonRubyAndSapphire''.
** Ariel and Belle read various books based on other works, such as ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTheWindWaker The Wind Waker]]''.
* ''Fanfic/TheSupermen'':
** As well as obviously referencing the fact that the fic is about superheroes (including Superman), and Wesker (who has superpowers and sees himself as an {{Ubermensch}}), the title is a Shout-Out to Music/DavidBowie. (Wesker's appearance was partly based on Bowie.)
** Also one to either [[Film/ResidentEvilFilmSeries the Resident Evil films]] or VideoGame/ResidentEvilCodeVeronica: when Wesker is planning to break into STAR Labs and is researching their security, he thinks "No laser hallway. Amateurs."
* ''Fanfic/WhereTheSunlightEnds'': After going into a mild dissociative state, the conscious part of Peter One refers to itself as “Narrator-Peter” and the unconscious part gets the designation of “[[VideoGame/TheSims Sim-Peter]]”.

* ''Fanfic/CalvinAtCamp'':
** The MouseTrap sequence in "Bringing Down the Mouse" is an homage to ''Film/MouseHunt''.
** In "Champion Charlie Brown," Lucy quotes a line from ''Bring Me the Head of Charlie Brown''.
* Casita keeping Hiccup and Toothless from stealing breakfast from the Madrigals via a ShellGame in ''Fanfic/CanIKeepHim?action=source'' brings to mind Shifu doing the same to Po and Po doing it to Tai Lung in ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda''.
* ''Fanfic/CaptainsCrash'':
** In the very first paragraph, Spitfire muses that "life is like a hurricane"; not only is this a direct quotation of the first line in the ''Franchise/DuckTales'' cartoon intro, but it also calls to mind the famous "life is like a box of chocolates" intro from ''Film/ForrestGump''.
** The title of the story stems from Rainbow Dash's hated childhood nickname.
** After Launchpad emerges from his crash, he proclaims himself "singed but triumphant", repeating himself a second time after tripping, and giving up on a third repetition after tripping again. This is a gag from ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'', where Launchpad was a secondary protagonist.
* In ''Fanfic/ADarkKnightOverSinCity'', when [[ComicBook/SinCity Dwight]] first sees Franchise/{{Batman}}, he says, [[ComicBook/AllStarBatmanAndRobinTheBoyWonder "It's the goddamn Batman."]]

* In chapter 2 of ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7144846/2 Ed, Edd, 'n Pony]]'', as Eddy is showing Edd his horn, he calls him {{WebAnimation/Charlie|TheUnicorn}}.
** And don't even get me started about Ed reading ''Fanfic/CupcakesSergeantSprinkles''...
* Chapter 1 of ''FanFic/EddwardWrightAceAttorney'' has Eddy playing a round of ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' on his computer. Obviously, he's playing as the Scout.
** Chapter 2 contains a reference to ''WebVideo/TheAnnoyingOrange'' CourtroomEpisode. WordOfGod states he's attempting to make this a RunningGag.
** Since the story takes place after ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7861246 Port-Ed 2]]'', many references to the ''{{VideoGame/Portal}}'' series exist, such as [[spoiler:the Eds having [=ASHPDs=] in their possession.]] [[LateArrivalSpoiler This does, however, spoil the ending of the story they come from]] (it's not finished yet, by the way). WordOfGod states that Edd does have a CompanionCube and it will show up soon.
*** In addition, Eddy's portal gun has a button that disables both portals, like in ''VideoGame/PortalTheFlashVersion''.
** The following sequence in chapter 4 is (mostly) taken from ''WebAnimation/TurnaboutStorm'' (original follows for reference):
--->'''Maya''': The trial's tomorrow... at 10:00.\\
'''Eddy''': What?! Ya mean "tomorrow" tomorrow?\\
'''Maya''': Yes. "Tomorrow" tomorrow.\\
[...]\\
'''Phoenix''': When is the trial, anyway?\\

** Chapter eighteen is titled ''[[Literature/ADanceWithDragons A Dance with a Dragon]]''.
** While the trio are fleeing the Monstrous Nightmare with Fishlegs carrying them, Hiccup looks back and shouts, ''[[Film/JurassicPark "Must go faster! Must go faster!"]]''
** During a funeral for the Vikings killed in a Vendal raid on Berk, Stoick sings ''[[Film/TheHobbit "Misty Mountains Cold"]]''.
** Merida sings ''[[Film/JoyeuxNoel "Hymne des Fraternisés"]]'' to soothe an angry Nadder.

** Seri says that Izumo "knows a woman who uses puppets and is really good at prosthetics".

* The sequel to ''Fanfic/TheFirstSaniwa'' features a BrickJoke about a NoodleIncident in which Yorimitsu finds out what the word ''tenshiki'' means.

Not knowing what it means, the monk asks his apprentice. The apprentice doesn't know either, so he goes around the neighborhood asking only to find nobody else knowing either, until he reaches the doctor himself.

** Act 1 Part 8 introduces Jones, a bit character voiced by Creator/GavinFree in the actual show.

-->'''Radiguet''': "And soon, I—no, we—will rule!"
** After Aka Red gives Sean a choice to either ascend as the Ultimate Red Legendary Ranger but cursed to wander forever or die, the latter not only calls the former out, but he makes his own rules.

*** For another couple ''PMMM'' shoutouts, Rika says that the "Ultimate" in "Ultimate Red Legendary Ranger" was used as a nod to it without wanting to spoil it. [[spoiler:It's in reference to "Ultimate Madoka", and the Ultimate Red Legendary Ranger later becomes like a god in the Ranger worlds.]] Later in Act 33, in her despair, Rika mutters "...I'm such an idiot" before the Eldritch takes her, similar to what happened to Sayaka before she's turned into a witch.

* ''Fanfic/TemporalAnomaly'': In Chapter 8 of the story, the chess match between [[Series/KamenRiderZiO Sougo/Oma Zi-O]] and [[VideoGame/Drakengard3 One]] plays out identically to the mind chess match between Solas and Iron Bull in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition'', which itself is a reenactment of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immortal_Game The Immortal Game.]]

* ''Fanfic/TheSupermen'':
** As well as obviously referencing the fact that the fic is about superheroes (including Superman), and Wesker (who has superpowers and sees himself as an {{Ubermensch}}), the title is a Shout-Out to Music/DavidBowie. (Wesker's appearance was partly based on Bowie.)
