[edit] Title is wrong

I'd fix it, but I don't have time to fix the other links as well. It's just "Shoulder" not "shoulders"... --Buddy13 02:10, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

that's the beauty of redirects, don't really have to. OK, I made the change. I'll also change what links I can find.Hemidemisemiquaver 12:22, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cultural references

As I brought up at the wikiproject (here) it is time we did something about the cultural references sections. I am moving all unsourced references to the talk pages for the time being in hopes of creating a better, more thoroughly sourced article. Please discuss this action at the wikiproject so as not to split it over 72 different talk pages. The information removed from the article follows. Stardust8212 23:06, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cultural references

• The title comes from the 1959 Paul Anka hit song, "Put Your Head on My Shoulder".
• This is not the first time a show created by Matt Groening has explored the idea of sewing someone's head onto another person's body; the idea was explored in The Simpsons "Treehouse of Horror II" episode, which is, in itself, a reference to the 1972 B-movie horror film, The Thing With Two Heads, starring Ray Milland and Rosey Grier.
• In the scene where they go to Jupiter's moon, Europa, there is a black rectangular slab with an "Out of Order" label on it. That is a monolith, which played an important role in the film "2001: A Space Odyssey", and the Monolith's role as protector of the Europans in 2061: Odyssey Three and 3001: The Final Odyssey.
• The Planet Express ship is also a reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey, as the eyepiece which Bender talks to resembles HAL 9000
• The car dealer Malfunctioning Eddie mentions in his television ad is a Plymouth 'V'ger', a reference to the major plot device in "Star Trek: The Motion Picture", a sentient life form known as V'ger that turns out to be NASA's Voyager 6 deep space probe and also a reference to the Plymouth Voyager minivan.
• Malfunctioning Eddie is a parody of the Crazy Eddie retail chain character that was used in advertisements.
• Amy's car has "Cross your heart seatbelts" which "protect, lift and separate", a parody of Playtex's Cross Your Heart bras.
• Amy's compact makes the Star Trek communicator sound effect when it opens.
• The only gas station on Mercury is Hg's Fuel; this is a pun because Hg is the chemical symbol for Mercury.
• The company "Septuple-A" (the Austro-Afro-Antarctico-Amer-Asian Automobile Association (AAAAAAA)) is a reference to the American Automobile Association (AAA), "Triple-A".
• The car's model, "Beta Romeo", is a reference to the Alfa Romeo.
• The car offered to Fry is a Thundercougarfalconbird, a reference to 3 products from Ford Motor Company, the Ford Thunderbird, Mercury Cougar and the Ford Falcon.
• Bender's dating service is advertised as being "Discreet and Discrete", the first meaning exercising self-restraint, and the second a form of mathematics based in logic and computability, which as a robot, Bender is programmed to abide.
• In the storeroom, two books on a bookshelf behind Fry and Amy are labeled P and NP, a reference to a currently unsolved problem in theoretical computer science.

I think I caught the page right before you remove this section; whet I pressed edit to add the $500 Al Gore bill, I got the continuity section. Baffled me for about an hour! Good luck on finding your references stardust, no really, I mean it. 207.38.193.197 (talk) 06:00, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
