When Nuklear Man says "Time to drop the hammer," is that a reference to the Siege Tank in Starcraft? And I'm pretty sure he said something about "dispensing some indiscriminate justice."

Tis indeed. The Siege Tanks are my favorite Terran unit.

Theres a part later on when Norman, Angus and Shiro are getting the food at the Mall, another Monty Python reference. Love that movie ^.^

But what was the easter Egg, Lord Tim? It's kinda nice to be...ya know, specific. (Also, unless I'm mistaken, he had more than one movie.)

When Norman is asking for a party Plater from the manager, it was similar to the part in the movie when they talk to the sorcerer Tim.. heh

In the book, when there are zombies in the mall, that is a definate refrence to the cult classic T.V. show Invader Zim. In one episode, the mall is taken over by a crazy secutiry guard and zombies are used to defend the mall. The zombies are very stupid, just like the book.

Kurosen 05-21-2005 08:38 PM

Uh, no. I wrote this book about 3 years before Invader Zim. The mall zombie sequence is a reference to the Resident Evil series of games. If you'll note, the ATM Rachel goes to talks like a PSX whenever you save your game.

Curses!!!!!! I thought i had it. Is the book really that old?? Wow. However, it did seem like it was the episode of Invader Zim, and I never played the Resident Evil games, survival horror is not my thing. Sorry everyone!
