I’m going to mention a reference you missed in CtM in case you missed it In the Teleporter sucess, Henry briefly teleports onto the street from the Lawyered Up ending from ETP, hell the same van that Henry was chasing almost hits him this time to prove the point further
27:16 It could be that Puff intentionally put down the wrong answer jingle purposefully. In the game, there is also a "lie" button. This is used when Cole has evidence that the person is lying. But, using doubt is not interchangeable with lie and is still possible to get it wrong in LA Noire. So in this scene, maybe the guard had evidence that Ellie and Henry is lying, but chose doubt instead.
Something I noticed was possibly another missed reference. From the Fleeing the Complex video, there was a character named Lil’ Mikey which was thought to have been a reference to typical rapper names, but I think it’s more likely a reference to “The Green Mile.” 1: The characters shoes are green, 2: The character in the green mile being referenced has an actor with the name Michael (Michael Clarke Duncan). 3: The bio states that the guy is innocent and that he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time. This is what happens to the character Michael Duncan plays in the film. A guy arrested for being at the wrong place at the wrong time. 4: The “Lil” part of the name is a joke on how the actual character is a giant, but acts more like a scared child. Just something I thought I’d put here.
@@2leftthumbs In stealing the diamond, in the ending where the diamond goes over the ledge of the bridge and henry gets to keep it, he does a bunch of poses with the diamond in reference to rayman origins treasure levels where you have to chase a treasure chest to nab a tooth for some weird guy blocking a door to a new area
Little Mickie is a character from Book of Mario, a modification of the N64 game Paper Mario. Not much is known about the character, other than he appears in one of Paul's questions and that he hid the dry casquet and the dry particles.
I just randomly got back into the Stickminverse and after binging through the playlist started wondering if this video was ever uploaded. If that's not perfect timing, I don't know what is.
Yesss! Always good to find an excuse to revisit Henry Stickmin. Also, little observation, the guards in FtC talking about exchanging hats reminds me of the toppats exchanging hats in CtM. Could be a little running gag
I'll restate one of the references that you missed, that wasn't put in this video. The zero-point energy fail when you choose sticky hand first in infiltrating the airship, directly takes the sound effect from the Halo forge mode for when you move an object. Not sure about all Halo games but at least Halo 4.
So Henry can metalbend and earthbend, and Ellie can use the Force... In addition to recorded criminal actions, those abilities make them frighteningly powerful. Maybe that's a good reason the Wall was so insistent on hunting them down in the Pure Blooded Thief/Convict Allies path of Completing the Mission. That seems like a long distance and a lot of resources to pursue 2 people, so it had to be a worthwhile goal. I wonder if a similar pursuit was attempted in any of the other Convict Allies paths but didn't get very far...
A bit of continuity I noticed: the fail text for the command melody in fleeing the complex states "if only you had an ocarina", and when the ocarina appears as a completing the mission, it is indeed the correct option
I've always had this funny thought that Cole Phelps always had a small band just out of frame playing the musical queues for him. Now I'm amused at the thought of Henry having the same thing. Like the little band is making musical references that Henry himself wouldn't get.
This is insane being early on one of your videos, but I already know it's well-constructed and entertaining, so I'm looking forward to this ride this Friday afternoon~
22:50 this could also be combined with other achievements in The Binding of Isaac that you get when not taking damage on any given chapter; such as "Basement Boy", "Spelunker Boy", "Mama's Boy", etc.
In the Revenged path of CtM, it's worth noting that the name of Right Hand Man's spirit is likely a triple reference. The name seems to be a play on the song "Time in a Bottle" by Jim Croce, the spirit being named this way is likely based on JoJo stands being named after music (For instance, Killer Queen), and the alteration of the name could potentially be a reference to how stand names are often changed when they're localized to English, so as to be more copyright friendly.
idk if someone has already pointed it out (probably have) but I saw in the ending of presumed dead, Henry can be seen on the back of a truck with the licence plate "A113" which is a reference to Pixar. Always as an easter egg they hide in every one of their movies.
Two other things I noticed that you kinda missed relating to Samuel Mundy, the sniper from stealing the diamond, in his bio it says hes not a crazed assassin which is very similar to the lines he uses in the meet the sniper video when talking to his father on the phone "I'm not a crazed gunman dad I'm an assassin, well the difference bein ones a job and the others mental sickness" and the boom headshot fail text is also the first thing the sniper says in the meet the sniper video
Another possible unintended reference with Ellie using the taser… The way Henry wiggles about is pretty similar to how enemies react in the Syphon Filter series when being electrocuted by the taser, with their upper body just spazzing out.
Whilst watching this, I got an ad for Attacking the Tower. Around 1 or 2 years earlier, I actually saw something about it and I remember something about a character creator. No idea about the character creator, but it's nice to see it's coming together.
11:26 I'm not sure if anyone else has pointed this out yet, but I'm pretty sure the trope originates from Mega Man II, where getting a boss' weapon would display "Weapon Get: Insert Weapon Here"
13:41 this makes the stout shako more funny because of the infamous “stout shako for 2 refined” line from tf2 which is a stupid price for a random normal hat
The "BOOM! Headshot." Text fail from StD's "intruder on a scooter" ending could also be a reference to TF2's "meet the sniper" youtube video, where our sniper says the same quote as he's poking a figurine with a head attatched to a Spring. Keep up the good work 👍👍
You might've missed a reference in Infiltrating the Airship. One of the portraits of Toppat leaders has one leader wielding a golden gun, specifically a Desert Eagle. This could be a reference to Nicholas Cage's character in the movie Face/Off, where he wields twin, gold-plated Desert Eagles. Might be worth a deeper look into! Also, would like to re-mention, in Stealing the Diamond, the guard you drop the Tunisian Diamond on, has a rifle. In the Flash version, it was an AK-style rifle, while in the updated version he's using something more akin to an M4 or M16-style rifle, which would make sense to update as the setting is in the United States, not a former Soviet Union country.
Fun fact: The design of the Model 1887 in MW2 2009, for both the original 2009 release as well as the 2020 campaign remaster, was specifically based on the custom Model 1887 prop used in Terminator 2; The Winchester M1887 was never meant to be like how it appears in Terminator 2 and MW2 2009 at all.
No idea if it was intentional or not but during the Stickmin Space Resort ending, there is a character named Elizabeth Greene. This is the same name of one characters from [PROTOTYPE].
during the rocket launcher fail in the original flash game, when the helicopter shoots down the airship, the ship plays an audio that sounds like the damaged sentry alarm from tf2 in fleeing the compex (the original flash version), the elevator going down floors sounds like the payload moving sound from tf2
Pretty sure the pose that the sniper takes when the spy backstabs him is the same as the animation when the sniper is backstabbed, meaning the flag version just has a super piled up reference in a few seconds.
28:44 The name “Gary” is probably a reference to Garry’s Mod, but the “Mann” is 100% another reference to TF2. The weapons in the game are from Mann Co. and the mercs work for the Mann brothers. Gary could also be a play on Gray Mann, the long-lost brother of Blutarch and Redmond
In infiltrating the airship seem to be multiple references to paintings from Piet Mondrian, one on the right from the bull statue and some in the room with the solider hat
So the reason why it was "Shine get!" in the Japanese version was because, they wanted to differentiate it from Shi-ne, which is Japanese for "Die" Just imagine Mario beating the level then the game telling you to die.
Now I don't know about this for sure, but at the beginning of the Jewel Baron route in Completing the Mission, when Burt Curtis is notifying Reginald about the hostile object approaching, the portrait window that pops up around Reginald seems very reminiscent of the text box style of Persona 5. That jagged style contrasted with black outlines seems too specific not to be the case, but the use of yellow throws me off a bit.
The Part in collection where Henry wakes up might be a reference to Eddsworld. An episode about a fight about bacon. The person who took care of Tord and Edd in the hospital sounded identical to the women from Henry.
This is for the eventual part 2, the music clip when you hover over Dance-Off option in Completing the Mission sounds awfully familiar to the Dig2Chins music
13:45 Al Kohaul could also be a reference to the Simpsons with Barts many prankcalls to Moe’s Tavern and asking if there’s somebody there which always is a joke name like Al Koholic where Moe says: Is there an Al Koholic here? Or in another episode you have Mike Rotch, Lee Keybum or Homer Sexual.
I don’t know if this has been mentioned before, but it appears the painting to the left of the bull at 8:01 is a reference to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time showing Hyrule Castle and Death Mountain
I'm so happy I didn't miss this when scrolling through my reccomended. I just finished watching the other episodes and this was an incredible surprise Hey, funni joke: Why is the horse so small? No stomach!
I can't believe that a character's name sound vaguely similar to a combination of 2 The Office characters got in as a reference, but THE CCC AS A REFERENCE TO SCP DIDN'T
I feel like frosty was arrested for kidnapping a child because in one of the movies about frosty a kid comes with him on a delivery truck to the north pole
2 things 1 in stealing the diamond 💎 there’s someone named Jacob Rose and Ellie rose in ftc 2. Golden boy is a reference in real life and TikTok that the younger child is the golden one
wherever the belt of grenades is (i forget) - the specificity of the belt is a possible reference of worms 2's box art, where there is one worm having a belt of grenades on their chest
I think the close quarters Nate box thing is about tf2s melee physics being very broken. Maybe that’s even being too nice because they’re kind of a train wreck
I also believe that you missed something in FTC when Henry and Ellie pass by the Guards with the disguise you called it a Hitman reference, but I also believe it's a specific reference to one of its games Hitman Absolution, as when one of the guards' notices Henry passing by, he lowers the cap a bit. Something you would do to pass by guards in Hitman absolution would be using instinct causing Agent 47 to cover the barcode on his head or doing a similar hat gesture to what henry was doing, as in Hitman absolution the guards were able to see through 47's disguise if it's the same outfit as them.
I would have covered those in the original video. That's where this "Missing references only" concept gets a little messy. But I wanted to avoid making things redundant for anyone who watches every video in the series back-to-back
i feel like the name Gary Mann is a reference to Grey Mann from TF2 because of the last name another one you forgot, the Biggol's Sword achievement is a nod to the Biggoron's Sword form Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
"About the russian taunt from Tf2. It was actually the Conga Taunt that came first. It made the entire match go from a standard shooter to just people dancing around before the Russian Taunt" -🤓
Every team based rpg game be like: The team leader:ok team split up we need find stuff The team:… The team leader:ok…?*moves into a path* The team:*follows the team leader The team leader:split up now! The team:*keeps following the leader* The team leader:STOP FOLLOWING ME AND SPLIT UP U DUMMIES
Correction on the "X to Doubt" reference; Colby Phelps is using the CORRECT ANSWER version; the WRONG ANSWER version is played in a minor key (the sample you showed).
I think you're right about the major/minor, now that I listen again. But it doesn't have the same "resolve" to the melody as the correct response does in game (as heard at 27:47 - unless that specific sound is even more context specific??)
