Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

No line says they, or a film of theirs, drew on anything.

The Rock (1996): 1 line

  1. theme (scrapped premise) · through Beverly Hills Cop II (1987), which they acted in: Beverly Hills Cop II ⇒ The Rock (the host's read). The abandoned England/Scotland Yard concept with Sean Connery became the backbone of The Rock a decade later.
    “initially written Beverly Hills Cop 2 to be Eddie Murphy in England, solving crimes with Sean Connery, actually, which basically, I think, winds up being like essentially the backbone for what the rock is 10 years later or whatever.”

theme (1)

  1. theme (theme): Will Smith → Chris Rock. The slap hit two people the hosts have history with, like two uncles fistfighting at Thanksgiving.
    “It was like watching 2 of your uncles getting a fistfight at Thanksgiving table or something.”
