Hey! A This Wretched Valley reference?!

Marty on realizing more about George after seeing his grandpa beat his dad down about wanting to go to college:

"Yeah. No wonder he won't ask my mom out, or any girl for that matter. All he ever heard from my grandfather is that he's going to fail. No one ever tells him he can succeed at anything..."

[...]

"Jeez," Marty said, "if he got that kind of support from Grandpa, no wonder Dad gave me such rotten advice."

This scene where George asks his dad, Arthur McFly, for advice about applying to college is heartbreaking.

I'm just pleased to see a Junji Ito reference!

"We're at a Big Boy Restaurant near Grandma Ruth's house."

Dang. I miss Big Boy... They closed the one near my grandma's house!

"Button Bill" - the forensic reconstruction is pretty much spot on. Poor Mick!

"One has an arrow in his neck - he says if he took it out it would just go back in... Sort of want to see that, but seems rude to ask." - We've seen this with Pete on CBS Ghosts!

More ace rep! I don't know if I've ever experienced this?! So refreshing!

Hey, Matisse is aroace and Raahim is pan! It's nice to see such diverse representation throughout this story.

I want this story to become a comedic revenge thriller with the newly minted allies, Daphne and Miles, to become best friends and team up for revenge against their now together exes, Peter and Petra. But, I have a feeling that's not what's going to happen.

And he likes Boris Karloff and other classic horror, and silent film- very cool!

Boaz likes The Mummy (1999) so he's alright in my book.

They have a copy of The Woman in Cabin 10!

"Mark was cleaner but he looked like exactly the type of guy who'd go to a Waffle House at three in the morning after shooting a haunted puppet." Now that's a line!

I'm about halfway through this and so far it might be my favorite from Hendrix so far.

Mackinac Island fudge!

The Borg!

Mostly dead and all dead - The Princess Bride!

Definitely wasn't expecting that reference to The Shining!

I'm really getting a kick out of these Monty Python references from Dead Parrot (during the electricity demonstration with the dead frog) to Holy Grail's Air Speed Velocity of the Unladen Swallow.

"Hank should not have been granted massive blue eyes and Kaz Brekker cheekbones. It was like giving a toddler a ray gun."

They saw a Big Mike's sign! I hope they'll go in - Sam and Dean both will be having flashbacks to Mystery Spot!

Lang: -- Get Thee Back to the Future (!!!)
Is, then, a pile of excremental fluff?

Thor: In faith thou hast but little notion of
The matters that thou facest presently.
[Stark surveys the natural surroundings.
Stark: It seems it may be Marlowe in the Park?
"Doth Mother knoweth thou weareth her drapeseth?"

I wondered what the author would do for the "Shakespeare in the park" bit between Tony and Thor!

"The Doctor glanced at himself in the mirror. He always thought he looked quite good in a dinner jacket and black tie - he hated bow ties, they made him look like a waiter, going by what had happened at other parties, so tonight it was a black tie proper." HA!
