Talk:Dialogue references

I'm hoping that "frigth" is itself a reference to HOW IS BABBY FORMED.

Music references
I think there are some, when you are in Chapter 9 - the swamp - area 3 (guessing, area before the church where two big monsters spawn). The music goes on and it sounds like Left 4 Dead music, I could be wrong. --Saucy 20:02, 31 January 2011 (PST)

The music in the swamp is indeed a reference to Left4Dead. More specifically the music played in the campaign Rain where you run around in a swamp.

In the corridor with the body of the man with a whip and skirt, before the battle with Vlad, I think he is playing a song very similar to Vampire Killer, from Castlevania.

Page name
Since there are other references than just dialogue (music, scenery, achievements, etc.), I think this page should be changed to something more fitting... Maybe just References? Or Pop-culture references?. Thoughts? — Toshu (talk) 03:15, 1 February 2011 (PST)
 * References seems the most reasonable to me. --XKCD 05:57, 1 February 2011 (PST)
 * I've made List of references, wasn't sure if I should merge or link to this. – Smashman (talk) 06:09, 1 February 2011 (PST)
 * I added 10 more to your list, only 8 left that I couldn't identify, albeit I'm assuming "cooking by the book" is simply a reference to the phrase "by the book", "one in a million" and "better you than me" is probably the same, but I can't be certain.

 * Okay, now we have so many reference pages that it's hard to tell where to put certain ones. For example, Admiral Agnar is a character reference to Admiral Ackbar, while his line "IT'S A TRAP!" is a dialogue reference to Admiral Ackbar's line. These two should definitely be together on one page. So, at least merging dialogue and character references seems to be fitting. Maybe just simply chapter references? I know that title sounds a bit vague, but it's different from item and achievement references. Nixitur 15:41, 17 February 2011 (PST)

"Dialogues"
I've added Cooking by the book as a reference since there is a meme named like that, a song from the TV show lazy town which got heavily remixed

Also, I would rename the page name for something like "Speech References" since some of them are not Dialogue, but Monologue, and I would move all the references that aren't speech (like visual references) to the 'List of References' page

Refactoring
i changed the whole page to use description lists. if you don’t like it, please don’t revert immediately, but instead tell me here what’s wrong. i also added a bunch of clarifications and corrections. ‒ Flying sheep 17:53, 3 February 2011 (PST)


 * I think it looks cleaner this way. Good job! --Saucy 18:50, 3 February 2011 (PST)


 * It's a definite improvement. All that's left I think is a little cleanup on rewording, I think. --> Coccan.gif Arrow  (Talk) -- Sandbox 20:56, 3 February 2011 (PST)


 * thanks! what i didn’t do is correcting the punctuation, but it was even less consistent before. ‒ Flying sheep 09:44, 4 February 2011 (PST)

Khan's Monologue
Just before the King screams "KHAAAAAN!!" at the end of chapter 5, there's a bit where Khan is talking about how his grinders of towns will destroy Havindr. The voiceover says something along the lines of "blow this *something* to bits!" This is not matched in the subtitles. I'm pretty sure this is a reference to something, but I can't quite place it. Anyone know? 203.247.14.222 19:10, 6 February 2011 (PST)

References in Magicks
This obviously deserves it's own category, but on which page? Invisibility references Lord of the Rings, obviously. I'm quite sure that the image for Grease references the 'Halt! Hammerzeit!' joke (Google Image Search finds many variations); the images are too similar to be a coincidence. There are many others, I'm sure. Xaxor 12:05, 11 February 2011 (PST)

Rise and shine reference
That is reference to intro in Half-Life 2.

That's a lot of princesses
Might also be a reference to Mario: "Thank you Mario! But our princess is in another castle!" from Super Mario Bros along with the fact that Fafnir might resemble Bowser.
