Talk:Star Trek parodies and pop culture references (film)

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

In Transformers, when Megatron chases Sam into the building with the statues on it, I'm almost sure he says "Qapla'!", or, "Success", as we know it, in Klingon. Can anyone else confirm this, or am I just hearing things? The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.215.30.61 (talk).

You probably just heard Uhura opening hailing frequencies. --Alan 09:15, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] (T)Raumschiff Surprise - Periode 1

There should be mention made of the German film (T)Raumschiff Surprise - Periode 1 see [1]

[edit] Austin Powers

Is there anything to confirm the moments mentioned were aimed at Trek? It's not as explicit as, say, The Wrath of Farrakhan - I can see the fembots (even though the idea wasn't unique to Trek), but I'm not sure the time travel comment was necessarily related.

[edit] The Search for More Money

  • Near the end of the film, when Lone Star asks Yogurt if they'll ever meet again, Yogurt replies, "God willing, we'll all meet again in Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money," a play both on the title Star Trek III: The Search for Spock and Trek's fondness for sequels. (It should be noted, however, that other Mel Brooks films, such as Robin Hood: Men in Tights, which co-starred Patrick Stewart, also teased sequels in this manner.)

Agree with whoever that it's a general sequel statement rather than a star trek specific reference. The only connection is "The Search For" which could be a reference though I think it's stretching. — Morder 18:10, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sex Trek blankers: vandals, thoughtpolice or moral models?

Sex Trek was added in February and expanded in May. Since then, it's been blanked at least three times. It will probably happen again. --TribbleFurSuit 23:23, 21 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Men in Black

I was watching Men in Black with my kid and I found a Star Trek reference, although there are probably more. In the MIB headquarters, somewhere along the film you can hear something like "Q, there is a call for you in line 5"...

Is that a reference, given that all the agents had letters?--31dot 19:56, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
Agreed. It's just as likely a reference to Q from James Bond... — Morder (talk) 19:58, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
