How many did you catch? Besides some of the obvious ones (Ark cameo, Marcus/Sr. references, the Junior line) the main ones I noticed were:
- Both LC and KOTCS had a motorbike chase where at one point the son is laughing at the misfortune of one of their pursuers, but recieve a disaproving glare from the father.
- The "none of them were you" line - even though Willie and Elsa replaced Marion in the later films, they were never as popular with viewers as the original heroine.
- The "knife to a gun fight" and "bad feeling about this" lines.
- The heroes in National Treasure also followed riddles to reach the goal.
- The flesh eating ants were very similar to the scarabs in both Mummy films.
- The traitor hording the treasure at the end of the film only to die when the temple collapses also happened in the first Mummy film.
- El Dorado was featured in the 2007 video game Uncharted.
- The opening scene for both the original Tomb Raider and it's 2007 remake featured an atomic bomb being detonated at a nuclear test site in the 1950s. In the original scene, the explosion causes Queen Natla's metalic prison to go flying in the air and crashing outside the blast zone (much like the fridge). The remake version features a dummy town.
- Area 51, the "grey" aliens and a UFO all appear in Tomb Raider III.
- The "well" and the platform stairs goes into the wall was very similar to the Tomb of Ancients in Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness.
There's probally more but those are the ones off the top of my head. Any other adventure movies that were either referenced or had similar scenes to this one?
