ALLUSIONS (5)
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Billy Bathgate: In the short, when a shot of Prof. Norton's sub appears, Tom says 'Meanwhile, in young Billy's bathtub...' and Crow retorts, 'Yeah, Billy Bathtub, what a terrible movie. This is a take off on the movie Billy Bathgate, based on the E. L. Doctorow book and starring Dustin Hoffman, Nicole Kidman and Bruce Willis. According to the Wikipedia entry for the character, Doctorow has disowned the movie for changing several key elements in the book; hence Crow's statement.
-
Star-Kist Tuna: When the leeches drain several victims, Joel says 'We don't want hillbillies with good taste, we want hillbillies that taste good!' This is a takeoff on the line in the Star-Kist Charlie the Tuna commercials. When Charlie tries to get caught, the announcer usually says, 'We don't want tuna with good taste, we want tuna that tastes good!'
-
General Electric: Joel said "GE, we bring good things to death." An old jingle for General Electric said, "GE, we bring good things to life."
-
Honey West: Joel thought Liz looked a little like 'Honey West.' Anne Francis starred as the title character in Honey West.
-
Troma: Crow said "a Troma presentation." Troma Studios was the independent studio that created the camp classic, The Toxic Avenger and dozens of other films of equal quality. It was named after the town of Tromavile, New Jersey, the setting for many of its films.
