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.

Godzilla (1998): 1 line

Jurassic Park (1993): 1 line

  1. lineage (sequel-comparison) · through The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997), which they acted in: Jurassic Park ⇒ The Lost World: Jurassic Park (the host's read). The hosts judge the sequel as normalizing the dinosaurs too fast and dropping the wonder-before-terror structure of the original.

  1. theme (plot trope) · through The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997), which they acted in: King Kong ⇒ The Lost World: Jurassic Park (the host's read). The T-Rex escaping a boat into a city is called a predictable King Kong move.

Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter (2014): 1 line

  1. unmapped (false true story) · through Fargo (1996), which they acted in: Fargo ⇒ Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter (the host's read). Kumiko is a movie about someone who believed Fargo's 'based on a true story' card and went looking for the money.

Panic Room (2002): 1 line

  1. unmapped (model for the villains) · through Fargo (1996), which they acted in: Fargo ⇒ Panic Room (the host's read). A host feels Panic Room's funny villain and scary villain pair uses the Buscemi and Stormare model from Fargo.
    “But I'm realizing how much wisely it does feel like they're sort of using the model of Bushemi and Stoneman.”
