Edgar Wright: The Definitive Guide To Homages, Influences And References

By Edward Owen /

After Todd punches Knives and declares he doesn€™t mind hitting girls because he€™s a rockstar €“ itself an inversion of Brandon Routh€™s Superman persona from Superman Returns €“ he says he doesn€™t know the meaning of the word €˜incorrigible.€™ He declares he doesn€™t know the meaning of the word, and we€™re informed of this by a caption saying €˜he really doesn€™t.€™ The sound played as this appears is the coin pickup noise in Sonic The Hedgehog. The numerical references Wright gives third evil ex Todd are multiple €“ Todd€™s t-shirt has three lines of piping, he has a number three on his chest and are there multiple threes in the band flyers on the walls. When he throws Scott through a wall, you can see threes written all over the dustbin.
