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.

Back to the Future Part II (1989): 1 line

  1. craft (craft) · through Alien: Covenant (2017), 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.

Prometheus (2012): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through Alien: Covenant (2017), which they acted in: Prometheus ⇒ Alien: Covenant (the host's read). Covenant is half the Prometheus sequel Scott wanted and half a concession to a more normal Alien movie.
    “this is half, like Ridley Scott doing the Prometheus sequel he wanted to do and half”

The Conjuring 2: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The Nun, which they acted in: The Conjuring 2 ⇒ The Nun (the host's read). The Conjuring 2 originally had a different monster that was turned into a nun, which then got her own film.
    “the Conjuring 2 had an entirely different monster that they shot the movie with”

The Martian (2015): 1 line

  1. industry (industry) · through Alien: Covenant (2017), which they acted in: The Martian ⇒ Alien: Covenant (the host's read). The Martian's success gave Scott leverage to make an odder Alien film.
    “I forgot that the previous film to this is the Martian”
