lineage (lineage) · through RoboCop (1987), which they were tied to as floated for RoboCop:
Avatar ⇒ RoboCop (the host's read).
The robot-waking sequence is beat for beat the first act of Avatar, down to testing the new body's powers.
“It is crazy actually how much this sequence is like beat for beat, the Avatar, right?”

Batman Begins (2005): 1 line
-
lineage (lineage) · through RoboCop (1987), which they were tied to as floated for RoboCop:
Batman Begins ⇒ RoboCop (the host's read).
The remake is part of the grounded-and-serious wave that followed Nolan; the speakers say this film marks the end of it.
“The Batman begins effect.”

Flesh and Blood (1985): 1 line
-
career (career) · through RoboCop (1987), which they were tied to as floated for RoboCop:
Flesh and Blood ⇒ RoboCop (the host's read).
Flesh+Blood is the failure that led Verhoeven to Hollywood and RoboCop, where he built entertainment around his interests.
“from this film on, he figures out how to take everything he's interested in and put it into the body of a conventionally entertaining Hollywood movie”

The Wizard of Oz (1939): 1 line
-
craft (craft) · through RoboCop (1987), which they were tied to as floated for RoboCop:
The Wizard of Oz ⇒ RoboCop (the host's read).
The training-sequence song joke riffs on the Tin Man and If I Only Had a Heart.
“If I only had a heart is what it's.”
