When Invincible crossed into other comic universes during the Angstrom Levy arc, director Dan Duncan pushed to cast Josh Keaton as the Spider-Man stand-in, since Keaton had voiced Spidey in The Spectacular Spider-Man and later Across the Spider-Verse. Getting the design past Amazon's lawyers took some back and forth, apparently mostly arguments over what colour the costume was allowed to be.
During episode seven of season two, while Ekko is wandering through the alternate universe, there's a carnival game in the background with a spinning wheel painted with real esports team logos, including T1, Gen.G and Fnatic. Blink and you'll genuinely miss it.
Naughty Dog isn't shy about referencing itself - in Pittsburgh you'll come across a poster for the official Last of Us website and a mousepad bearing the studio's logo. There's also a pet store called Faithful Dog, a pun that's hard to miss once you notice it.

The official soundtrack runs to nineteen tracks, running just over an hour, with titles like 'Chloe Frazer', 'The Western Ghats' and 'The Tusk of Ganesh' mapping neatly onto the game's key characters and locations.
Walt hurling a pizza onto the roof in frustration looks effortless, and that's because it basically was — Bryan Cranston nailed the throw on the very first try, and the crew reportedly considered it a one-in-a-million shot.
After decades of RuneScape's click-and-wait combat, Dragonwilds ditches the turn-based system entirely. Players, NPCs and monsters can all swing at the same time, with stamina governing how much attacking and blocking you can actually pull off.
