| Will: What? You mean, beside that giant tic tac you call your head?
Tic tacs are very popular small breath mints. | Will: Cleopatra Jones.
Cleopatra Jones was a character played by Tamara Dobson in two blaxploitation movies: Cleopatra Jones and Cleopatra Jones and the Casino of Gold. | Will: Do I play a convincing coma victim or what?
Geoffrey: Well, you're no Sunny von Bülow...
Martha "Sunny" Crawford von Bülow was a millionaire that once held the title of Princess von Auersperg because of her first marriage to Alfred, Prince von Auersperg. On December 21, 1980, Sunny von Bülow slipped into an irreversible coma and two years later Claus von Bülow was charged for murder of his rich wife. He was acquitted, but the truth remains unknown. This scandal turned into a movie staring Glenn Close and Jeremy Irons: Reversal of Fortune. | Will: I might as well be kissing Flavor Flav, gold teeth and all.
Flavor Flav (nee William Drayton) is a rap artist and a member of the influential rap group "Public Enemy." | Will: I'm the one who shot J.R. too.
This refers to J.R. Ewing, the anti-hero of the TV series Dallas. At the end of the 1979-80 season, a mysterious intruder shot J.R. in the chest. This resulted into a huge "Who Shot J.R.?" publicity through the entire globe. People placed bets and made theories on the shooter's identity. | Will: And I shot the Sheriff. But I did not shoot the deputy.
I Shot the Sheriff, But I did not Shoot the Deputy is the title of a song by Eric Clapton. | Will: I'm young and I'm restless, and I've got one life to live. So I've got to follow my guiding light and search for tomorrow! Hey, who knows if I wind up living out the days of my life in a mansion in Dallas, or in corner of Melrose Place drinking Falcon Crest out of brown paper bag.
Will subtly refers to eight American soap operas: The Young and the Restless premiered in 1973 and is still running as of today (2006); One Life to Live debuted in 1968 and is still running as of today (2006); Guiding Light premiered in 1937 over broadcast radio and moved to television in 1952. It is the longest running drama series ever as is still run as of today (2006); Search For Tomorrow aired in 1951 and ended in 1986; Days of Our Lives is the longest-running American soap opera that debuted in 1965 and revolved around two families of Salem; Dallas was a long-running primetime soap opera - about a wealthy Texas oil family - that first aired in 1978; Melrose Place ran between 1992 and 1999 and it centered around a group of young adults living in apartment block, called Melrose Place, in the West Hollywood district of Los Angeles; and Falcon Crest is another saga of the rich and greedy fighting for power that first aired in 1981, and the story centered around the industry on wine-making of Falcon Crest Winery. |
