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.

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004): 1 line

  1. unmapped (title formula) · through Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006), which they acted in: Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy ⇒ Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (the host's read). The Ballad of Ricky Bobby echoes the Legend of Ron Burgundy naming pattern of the 2006 era.
    “Honestly, that's a 2006 thing is titling movies like this.”
    The Rewatchables · 'Talladega Nights' With Craig Horlbeck, Danny Heifetz, and Danny Kelly · 1:02:38 · Craig Horlbeck (0.40 sure it was them)

Days of Thunder (1990): 1 line

  1. unmapped (parody target) · through Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006), which they acted in: Days of Thunder ⇒ Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (the host's read). The film is not a direct parody but spoofs movies like Days of Thunder; Reilly was in both.
    “I don't think this movie is like a direct parody of that, but it is parodying movies like Days of Thunder.”
    The Rewatchables · 'Talladega Nights' With Craig Horlbeck, Danny Heifetz, and Danny Kelly · 1:05:52 · Craig Horlbeck (0.50 sure it was them)

Happy Gilmore (1996): 1 line

  1. unmapped (shared gag) · through Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006), which they acted in: Happy Gilmore ⇒ Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (the host's read). Ricky Bobby signing a woman's chest echoes Happy Gilmore.
    “there's a scene when Ricky Bobby signs a woman's chest and it's exactly like Happy Gilmore when he signs the woman.”
    The Rewatchables · 'Talladega Nights' With Craig Horlbeck, Danny Heifetz, and Danny Kelly · 1:15:11 · Craig Horlbeck (0.70 sure it was them)

Jessica Bendinger: 1 line

  1. theme (theme) · through Bring It On (2000), which they acted in: Jessica Bendinger ⇒ Bring It On (the maker said so: her own interview, quoted on the show). Her hip hop journalism at Spin shaped the film's theme of white kids imitating black artists.
    “Years later, when she got into the world of cheerleading, she saw that pattern repeating itself.”
    The Big Picture · 1. ‘Bring It On’ and ‘Donnie Darko’ | Mission Accomplished · 0:12:37 · Brian Raftery (0.90 sure it was them)

Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (2013): 1 line

  1. unmapped (repeated joke) · through Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006), which they acted in: Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby ⇒ Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues (the host's read). Anchorman 2 recycled the pretending-to-be-blind gag from Talladega's paralyzed scene.
    “And like, that's just the Talladega paralyzed scene.”
    The Rewatchables · 'Talladega Nights' With Craig Horlbeck, Danny Heifetz, and Danny Kelly · 0:21:14 · Danny Heifetz (0.40 sure it was them)

Jay-Z: 1 line

  1. industry (industry) · through Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (2006), which they acted in: Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby ⇒ Jay-Z (the host's read). A host theorizes the Jay-Z and Beyonce song "Apeshit" (video shot in the Louvre) only exists because this film made "ape shit" a thing.
    “I do not think that Beyonce and Jay-Z make a song called Apeshit without this movie.”
    The Rewatchables · 'Talladega Nights' With Craig Horlbeck, Danny Heifetz, and Danny Kelly · 0:33:15 · Danny Heifetz (0.40 sure it was them)
