* Goldilocks and the Three Bears subtly reference ''Literature/WinnieThePooh''. Any of their enemies are said to be in "bother". Not only that, but when the parties are fighting over the map, Goldilocks gets her head stuck in a honey pot thanks to Perrito.

* During the fight with Puss the Giant uses a church bell as a weapon. Given the movie's central theme of accepting mortality it brings to mind the quote [[Literature/ForWhomTheBellTolls "And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee"]].
* Speaking of bells, there was [[WesternAnimation/{{Coco}} another movie]] in which an arrogant character gets themselves killed by a bell falling on them after performing an elaborate musical number with a stringed instrument in hand.
* When Puss's life flashes before his eyes, we can see him, Shrek and Donkey walking in single file on a bridge with the moon in the background, mimicking a shot from ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'' with Simba, Timon, and Pumbaa.
* The many magical items that Jack has collected are this, especially towards Disney stuff.
** One can briefly see [[WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}} a blue wizard hat with stars on it]].
** A GlassSlipper just like the one WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}} wore is prominently shown in Jack's collection. He later tosses it into a wall and completely shatters it.
** There's a flower in a glass casing which is very suspicious to [[WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast another rose in a glass]].
** There's a MagicCarpet that is quite similar to the one [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} a certain young Arabian thief comes to possess in the Cave of Wonders]]. Fittingly, it's later used briefly by Puss and Kitty, [[JustForPun a couple]] of thieves, to flee from Jack's pie factory in a similar manner to Aladdin escaping the collapsing cave.
** Jack hurls a certain trident similar to [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989 Triton's]] to the above MagicCarpet.
** When scrambling to get a useful item in the posies part of the forest, [[WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}} he takes out a broom that walks]].
** One jar releases a creature named [[CaptainErsatz Ethical Bug]] who is definitely a stand-in for [[WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}} Jiminy Cricket]] and whose voice sounds like [[Creator/JamesStewart Jimmy Stewart]].
** ThePhoenix in Jack's possession looks quite similar to Fawkes, Dumbledore's Phoenix in the ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' series.
** A magic staff with a blue orb encased in the wooden hilt which resembles the one used by Gandalf in ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' films.
** The magic snacks are [[Literature/AlicesAdventuresInWonderland an "Eat Me" cookie and a "Drink Me" bottle]].
** And he puts them all in a "[[Literature/MaryPoppins magic nanny bag]]", complete with flying umbrella.
* When Jack peers into a crystal ball that tells the heroes' location, he paraphrases a line from ''Film/TheWizardOfOz''.
--->'''Jack Horner:''' I'll get you, my kitties, [[AndYourLittleDogToo and your little dog, too!]]
** Another ''Oz'' reference: earlier in the film, the witch waiting in the line for the barber is green-skinned.
* Goldilocks asks Puss in Boots how he can still be alive since the Bears found his scent on a grave, prompting Puss to quip, "[[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail I got better]]."
* When Goldilocks handles an illusion of a book she read as a child, the book has a card with a list of people who checked out of a library. All entries on the card are "Goldi," except for [[Literature/HanselAndGretel two consecutive borrowers named "Hansel" and "Gretel"]].
* Jack Horner [[spoiler:dies sinking into the Wishing Star [[Film/Terminator2 thumb last]].]]
* Jack Horner's giant bakery wagon looks a lot like a horsedrawn carriage version of the Doof Wagon and the other gigantic vehicles from ''Film/MadMaxFuryRoad''.
* Jack Horner's "Baker's Dozen" being a highly lethal team of baking mercenaries is a play of words with Film/TheDirtyDozen.
* After the bears get caught in their own trap, Baby Bear gets a beehive stuck on his head and shouts out [[Film/TheWickerMan2006 "Not the bees!"]].
* The entire main cast (minus the Wolf) dramatically staring at each other in a MexicanStandoff is a very obvious riff on the famous climax of ''Film/TheGoodTheBadAndTheUgly'', complete with a EnnioMorriconePastiche.
* The Wolf's twin engraved sickles are very similar to [[spoiler:Malthael's weapons in the ''VideoGame/DiabloIII'' intro. He even holds them in a manner close to the Archangel's famous sickle-crossing pose at least once. Also, the wolf emerging out of the darkness into the Cave of Lost Souls is similar to Mathael being introduced in the video. It is unclear whether his final rant having "diablo" in it is a coincidence.]]
* The story centering around the hero of the city, gaining fame/notoriety through defeating all enemies, being frightened of impending Death and seeking the means of immortality could be a homage to Gilgamesh.
* Whenever Kitty cuts down one of the Posies, two grow in its place, like the heads of the Hydra in Myth/ClassicalMythology, which would make Jack's success with an improvised flamethrower logical, considering how it was defeated there.
