- DirectorSteven SpielbergStarsHenry ThomasDrew BarrymorePeter CoyoteA troubled child summons the courage to help a friendly alien escape from Earth and return to his home planet.the movie isn't explicitly referenced but knowing Yorick, he was probably thinking of this movie when he called the equipment Heather and Heidi uses "E.T. gear". Also this is my list and I don't needing additional motivation to include E.T.
- DirectorPenelope SpheerisStarsTravis TedfordBug HallBrittany Ashton HolmesAlfalfa is wooing Darla and his "He-Man-Woman-Hating" friends attempt to sabotage the relationship."The He-Man Woman Hater's Club" is mentioned, along with the movie itself.

But a cynical woman Texan senator has sold her out.well, Yorick calls Alter "G.I. Jane" and I know that doesn't mean he's thinking of the movie specifically. Once again this is my list and I don't need additional motivation to include Demi Moore with a buzzcut.
