    Poltergeist II - At one point in the film Craig Nelson (aka the Dad) asks Will Sampson’s Medicine Man character if he’s escaped from a mental asylum. The way it’s played make it obviously a funny little nod to Sampson playing Chief Bromden in ‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest’.

    Who Framed Roger Rabbit? - Christopher Lloyd’s character is looking for Roger after smashing up the Trolley Depot bar and one of the drunks tells him “Yea I seen a rabbit. He’s right here. say Hello Harvey.” At which point if you’ve seen the 1950’s Jimmy Stewart comedy ‘Harvey’, about a man whose best friend is an invisible rabbit, feel free to bore anyone else who might be in earshot by explaining the joke.
