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.

ABBA: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Mamma Mia! (2008), which they acted in: ABBA ⇒ Mamma Mia! (the host's read). The film is aesthetically and spiritually in tune with ABBA's incandescent, inescapable and stupid songs.
    “It is a film that is very, like aesthetically and spiritually in tune with its source material, being the, like, incandescent, inescapable, wonderful, and also really stupid songs of ABBA.”

Aliens (1986): 1 line

  1. craft (craft) · through Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), which they acted in: Aliens ⇒ Captain America: The First Avenger (the host's read). The frozen-find cold open structurally echoes the discovery sequence that opens Aliens.

Iron Man 2 (2010): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), which they acted in: Iron Man 2 ⇒ Captain America: The First Avenger (the host's read). The Stark Expo of the 1940s is the origin of the Expo seen in Iron Man 2, now as the full World's Fair version.

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), which they acted in: Truth: Red, White & Black (comic) ⇒ Captain America: The First Avenger (the host's read). The one-off serum process loosely connects to the Truth miniseries retcon about earlier black experimentees.

West Side Story (2021): 1 line

  1. craft (craft) · through Mamma Mia! (2008), which they acted in: West Side Story ⇒ Mamma Mia! (the host's read). In Dancing Queen, Baranski and Streep's chiffon skirts allow one Jerome Robbins-style moment that echoes West Side Story.

Black Panther (2018): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), which they acted in: Captain America: The First Avenger ⇒ Black Panther (the host's read). Vibranium, the shield metal, leads to Wakanda; adamantium is the X-Men analogue the MCU couldn't use.

Chris Pratt: 1 line

  1. industry (industry) · through Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), which they acted in: Captain America: The First Avenger ⇒ Chris Pratt (the host's read). The beefcake shot of Pratt echoes Chris Evans out of the tank, and Marvel now puts one in every trailer.
