Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation
features several allusions to the movie "Casablanca"

Spoiler

The main female character is named ILSA, just like the main female character in Casablanca.
In MI:RN when they track ILSA down they find her in a house in CASABLANCA.
In MI:RN ILSA needs a RED BOX to buy her self out of the organization, in Casablanca ILSA needs the letter of transit to get out of the country.

Michael and James Parks play the same characters in Death Proof and in Kill Bill, meaning they, like Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, take place in the same universe. I then went online and basically found out there's an entire shared "Tarantinoverse."

What a violent, twisted, effed up, but totally awesome world that is.

Freaking Minions Movie almost made a billion at the box office.
And I havent seen it.
These kinda movies always fly under the radar a bit when it comes to box office hype.
Pretty crazy how much money universal made within 5 years from those three films.

He appears in some of Robert Rodriguez's movies too- Michael Parks plays Texas Ranger Earl McGraw in From Dusk Til Dawn, Kill Bill v1, Planet Terror and Death Proof.

This year alone Universal has had one of the most successful years of any studio ever.

Its such an odd change from a few years ago when after losing big on several movies, Universal started scaling back and cancelling a lot of projects, including pulling the plug on At the Mountains of Madness while Guillermo del Toro was location scouting and setting up offices. One wonders how that would have played out if they were rolling in this kind of dough then.

Shaggy Dog and Freaky Friday had 2 remakes first on TV then in theaters .

They were also in Red State so can we add Kevin Smith movies to the big crossover?
