Allusions

add »
Minimus: Appearance
Minimus's heads constantly switching depending on his mood is a lot like how The Mayor on The Nightmare Before Christmas's heads switch based on mood. (edit)
Maximus: Appearance
Due to his costume and and slightly oriental appearance, it is possible that Maximus is meant to be a parody of Flash Gordon's foe, Ming the Merciless. (edit)
Maximus: (Releasing robots) Fly, my pretties, fly!
Directly quoted from The Wicked Witch of the West from The Wizard of Oz. (edit)
Betty: Open the hatch, X-5!
Mirrors the line "Open the pod bay door, HAL" from Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. (edit)
