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.”
    The Big Picture · ‘Mamma Mia!’ Meets ‘The Strangers'! It’s a Movie Swap! · 0:52:57 · Amanda Dobbins (0.80 sure it was them)

Adventure Time (TV series): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Trolls (2016), which they acted in: Adventure Time (TV series) ⇒ Trolls (the host's read). Trolls' look is the end of a chain from webcomics and Adult Swim through Adventure Time to mainstream kids animation.
    “So you end up getting things like adventure time that feel more like what adult swim used to feel like than what a children's show used to feel like.”

Shrek (2001): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Trolls (2016), which they acted in: Shrek ⇒ Trolls (the host's read). Trolls has Shrek-distilled humor: self-referential asides for the parents.
    “this weird, annoying Shrek, you know, as you say, Shrek, distilled or whatever, like type of humor”

Toy Story 2 (1999): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Trolls (2016), which they acted in: Toy Story 2 ⇒ Trolls (the host's read). Branch's grandmother backstory is likened to Jessie's flashback in Toy Story 2.
    “they like try to do the like Jesse Toy Story 2.”

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.
    “they do like one Jerome Robbins, like, uh, sachet moment.”

What the speakers say drew on them or a film of theirs, marked the same way.

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Mamma Mia! (2008), which they acted in: Mamma Mia! ⇒ Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (the host's read). The sequel is both prequel and sequel, with Lily James as young Donna in Donna and the Dynamos.
    “can I tell you it's both a prequel and a sequel?”
