12 Times Creators Left Hidden Nods and Tributes Inside Their Movies
7. This tribute in Top Gun: Maverick
If you look closely at the jukebox scene in Top Gun: Maverick, Lt. Jake “Hangman” Seresin can be seen dialing “86” to turn on Foghat’s Slow Ride. This seems like a callback to the year when the first Top Gun movie was released, 1986.
8. This playful homage in Frankenweenie
When all animals turn into Kaiju-like creatures in Frankenweenie, we can see the pet turtle, Shelley, ravaging the town. This may be seen as an homage to the author of Frankenstein, Mary Shelley, who created the story the movie is based on. It can also be a nod to actress Shelley Duvall who starred in the 1984 short of the same name.
9. This clever callback in Bullet Train
When Lemon labeled “The Son” as a “Percy” and put a Percy sticker from Thomas and friends on his forehead in Bullet Train, it was a quick reference to actor Logan Lerman’s time as the beloved Percy Jackson in the Percy Jackson & the Olympians franchise.
