Alien: Covenant (2017): 1 line

1. craft (craft) · through Back to the Future Part II (1989), which they acted in: Back to the Future Part II ⇒ Alien: Covenant (the host's read). The double-Fassbender effect is an old trick established by Zemeckis in Back to the Future II.

   “once again, shit established by Zameckis and back to the future too.”

Cars (2006): 1 line

1. craft (structural copy) · through Doc Hollywood (1991), which they acted in: Doc Hollywood ⇒ Cars (the host's read). Cars follows Doc Hollywood beat for beat, swapping in a hidden-legend old racer as the town mentor.
