Movie/tv references
Movie/tv referencesInspired by the literary references found in the MSCL Bible, I thought it would be interesting to compile a list of movie and television references as well. Okay, fine it was my OCD, but it was still interesting to come up with a list!
Pilot: It's a Wonderful Life Dancing in the Dark: Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman, Batman Guns & Gossip: JFK speech Father Figures: Late Show with Johnny Carson, Alive the Zit: Patty Duke Show, Malcolm X speech, Wizard of Oz, George Burns & Gracie Allen Show Why Jordan Can't Read: Nutty Professor, Bicycle Thief, Wizard of Oz Halloween: Power Rangers, Batman Other People's Mothers: Pippi Longstocking Self Esteem: Rush Limbaugh Show, West Side Story, Twilight Zone, Lord of the Flies, 60 Minutes Pressure: 9 1/2 Weeks On the Wagon: Sesame Street, George Burns and Gracie Allen Show, Jennifer Eight, Giant So-Called Angels: Godfather, Mr. Magoo Christmas Special, A Christmas Carol, Sal Mineo film festival (unspecified movies) Resolutions: Dick Clark's Rockin' New Year's Eve, A River Runs Through It, Thelma and Louise Betrayal: Steven Spielberg & Quentin Tarantino movies (unspecified movies but we can assume that Brian is referring to Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction - Spielberg goes without saying) Weekend: Dating Game, unnamed fishing show ![]() In Dreams Begin Responsibility: The Nanny *Should Batman, the Wizard of Oz, and Pippi Longstocking count as literary references or tv/movie references?* Natasha aka candygirl :: MSCL.com
Look, if this is weird for you, being tutored? I don't mind helping you a little longer. You could have sex with me if you really want to help...I guess that's a "no"?
I have a broad definition of literature, which includes books, music, movies, etc. Anything written can be considered literature. Many schools and colleges share the same broad definition. That's why you will find film classes housed in English departments at some colleges, for example.

Patty: If Rayanne's not seeing you, and we're not seeing you, who is seeing you? Graham: And how much of you? Angela: Dad! Graham: Oh, I'm sorry! I asked a question about your life, didn't I? Woah, what came over me? http://www.last.fm/user/TomSpeed/
Well I didn't want to double dip since I originally added those three to the literary list
![]() Since all three are books made into movies, I wasn't sure which list was more appropriate. It's likely that Rickie and Patty are more familiar with the Wizard of Oz as a movie, and it's almost definite that Danielle and Rayanne are more familiar with the Batman movie than with the 60s tv show or the comic book. (see pictures here and here to see Catwoman's pointy eyeliner) ![]() On the other hand, it's likely that Danielle and Vivian are more familiar with the book Pippi Longstocking than with the tv movie version (1985) or the Swedish movie version (1988).

How about other TV shows and movies with MSCL references like every Cameron Crowe movie, the movie "Loser", that episode of the Simpsons, and that TV show starring the guy who played the young Skywalker. Any others?
