Film directors start out as movie buffs, often of the most obscure sorts of films. On top of that, many modern directors went to film school and saw hundreds of legendary movies. Even after they get to direct movies of their own, they often love to use angles, compositions, and shots they saw in school. Of course, all directors use tricks and shots invented long before. But while anyone can do a Team Power Walk, it takes skill and devotion to light and shoot a power walk exactly like Philip Kaufmann did in The Right Stuff (especially if your film isn't about astronauts). This trope does not count deliberate parody, or remakes of old movies, unless it's a new adaptation from the original medium. (Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy qualifies for this trope, while the remake of Psycho does not.) Something similar occasionally appears in comics, but the comparative ease of copying (light tables) makes it hard to tell the homages from the flat-out swipes. Occasionally this is Inspiration Nod, but usually it's more of a Shout-Out to a director that inspired them to get into the business. It's Art Imitates Art of cinema. If the homage is referential to a series or property's own past, it's an Internal Homage. |

Batman: The Telltale Series: The promotional image for the final episode of the second season, "Same Stitch", homages the cover of The Killing Joke, while also updating it for modern times: John is holding a smartphone (the one he carries the entire game) as opposed to an old-fashioned camera. Also, it's Villain Joker holding the phone, while Vigilante Joker is seen on its screen. | |

An example of one with a hidden meaning is the homage shot to Terminator 2: Judgment Day in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, in which Snake's stealth camo is shown glitching out, giving the impression of him materialising out of thin air in the same manner as the time jump effect from the film. Word of God explains that this is intended as Foreshadowing of how Snake's role has been significantly altered in 2 from being the main character to being the mentor for the real main character, just like how at the beginning of Terminator 2 we assume that the Terminator is the Big Bad just because he'd been that in the first film, when he's really The Hero. | |

The Simpsons does this all the time, mostly for the sake of parody. The scene where Homer bites into a "Ribwich" for the first time, and his pupils dilate and we have sudden shots of the food travelling down his gullet, is a pitch-perfect recreation of a scene from Requiem for a Dream. | |

Jane the Virgin: "Chapter Fifty-One" has a bit of a Alfred Hitchcock theme, including a few of these: To Alfred Hitchcock Presents before the first segue, where "Jane Villanueva Presents" appears on the screen along with an outline of her. To Vertigo as Rafael realizes that his father's paintings were stolen from the convent Elena deposited the checks to. To The Birds as the birds circle around the convent. Acknowledged by the narrator, who "couldn't help Hitchcock-ing it up". |

Dirty Pair OVA #6 has a scene with Yuri and her mob-scion/fiance-for-an-episode running along the beach in the setting sun, tripping and rolling/falling and finally kissing. It looks like a commercial, and it is, sort of. Yuri and Beau are directly re-creating a lipstick commercial from an old Urusei Yatsura episode. Only the commercial famously cut out right before the kiss. | |

The Metal Gear games do this with actual hidden meanings, and so frequently it gets to the point where it's like What Do You Mean, It's Not Symbolic? but with movies instead of religion. An example of one with a hidden meaning is the homage shot to Terminator 2: Judgment Day in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty, in which Snake's stealth camo is shown glitching out, giving the impression of him materialising out of thin air in the same manner as the time jump effect from the film.

In Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, there's an homage shot to The Right Stuff, done entirely in narration. In Strangelove's audio tapes, she describes a scene where NASA is selecting someone for a suicide mission in space, and how no-one volunteered until The Boss raised her hand, "as if acting out a scene from a movie". |

The Mobile Suit Gundam SEED series has the following, since it's a reimagining of the original Mobile Suit Gundam: Lacus's exit from her escape pod at the end of episode 7 and the beginning of episode 8 was a nod to Lalah Sune's exit from Char Aznable's shuttle in episode 34 of Mobile Suit Gundam. In episode 23 of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, Heine (piloting the GOUF Ignited) fighting Stellar (in her Gaia Gundam) is a nod to the fight between Amuro and Ramba Ral in episode 12 of Mobile Suit Gundam, with the same pink background during the fight. |

In Athena Voltaire and the Feathered Serpent, Athena escapes pursuit by swinging out on a vine, dropping into the water, and swimming out to her float plane. This is probably a homage to a scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark, since Athena Voltaire has no shortage of comparison points to Indiana Jones, and nods have been made by the author outside the comics proper). | |

Tangled: The Series: "Be Very Afraid" has one to Final Fantasy VII, of all things. Corona is being overrun by red rocks that make you see your worst fear, and near the end we get to see what Rapunzel's is: Cassandra destroying Corona forever. And as if the notion of a former ally who had a Face–Heel Turn after discovering the truth about her "Mother" lashing out against those who stole her perceived birthright and destroying the protagonist's hometown wasn't enough of a homage, there's a shot of Cassandra staring at the camera for a few moments before turning away and vanishing into the flames, replicating the end of FFVII's Nibelheim flashback. See for yourself!◊ The episode immediately after that homages the "Batwing over the moon" shot from Tim Burton's Batman. |

Back to the Future Part III: Doc's idiosyncratic way of dancing in 1885 is stated in the commentary to be an homage to My Darling Clementine. There is also a careful reproduction of another shot from that film: a gun being slid down a bar toward the camera, in deep focus. | |

Many people noted the use of the generic "Japanese man looking back at Godzilla" shot in The Lost World: Jurassic Park. More obscure is the sequence where the hunters are running through the tall grass at night. A series of tracking pans of each figure, snapping back to pick up the next man, it's a direct lift from Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai, down to the tall grass. The moonlight helps match it to the black-and-white original. | |

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power: The shot of Elendil covering the sun with his silhouette while making a shadow over Galadriel and Halbrand is inspired by the shadow scene of Lawrence adopting his savior complex and leading the Arabs to their potential freedom. Subverted with the scene of Galadriel and Theo hiding under a log from the Orcs. According to Alex Diesenhof, the similarities with the hobbits hiding under a long in both the Bakshi’s and Jackson’s films were accidental. |

No matter the reality, no matter if it's animated, live-action, video game or an Elseworlds What If? where Flash Thompson became Spider-Man - there will be a scene of Spider-Man lifting a pile of rubble out from under him, and it will be awesome. Nick Fury even went so far as to imply it's a multiversal constant. | |

His longest sequence of homage shots comes in the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan. As the rangers hit the beach, Spielberg slips in bits from war movies that have come before (this case might count as Pink Bunny Slippers). After Tom Hanks falls into the water, we have a shot of bullets making water trails round floating bodies that looks like a scene from Peter Weir's Gallipoli. As the troops crawl along the beach, we see a medic checking a wounded soldier and discovering that he's been completely eviscerated. The wounds and the pose are straight out of Catch-22. Lastly, we catch a glimpse of a wounded man holding his own severed arm, a twin of a shot from Kurosawa's Ran. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves: There are three shots in this film that are directly taken from velociraptor scenes in Jurassic Park. The opening prison cart drop off is blocked just like the velociraptor intro. The overhead shot where the party pulls Doric away from the dragon's bite is nearly identical to when Grant pulls Lex up into the air ducts away from the jumping velociraptor. After the splicer beast victim realizes the true hunter is over his shoulder, it is framed the same way as when Robert Muldoon meets his end after muttering "Clever girl" to the alpha hunter. |

The Parent Trap (1998): After checking in at the hotel, Nick and Meredith enter the elevator en route to their suite, when Nick turns around and sees Elizabeth in the lobby. The sight of his old wife poleaxes him so thoroughly that he leans dramatically to the side to keep her in view as the elevator door closes—just like Cary Grant does in My Favorite Wife. | |

The Lord of the Rings: Peter Jackson shot one bit at Bilbo's birthday party in The Fellowship of the Ring ("Proudfeet!") as an exact copy of a shot in Ralph Bakshi's animated The Lord of the Rings. Jackson even helpfully points this out in the commentary. A circle-round shot of the four hobbits at Weathertop is also lifted from the original, although the camera moves much faster and Aragorn is absent. And the hobbits hiding in the crotch of a tree from the Nazgûl? Also from the Bakshi version. (It's the last shot you'd expect, isn't it?) The scene at the black gates of Mordor appears to be a homage to The Wizard of Oz. Saruman telekinetically closing the 4 doors in his tower to keep Gandalf trapped in Orthanc mirrors a similar scene in Dragonslayer where Ulrich traps Galen in the wizard's tower - yes, four doors are also involved. Wormtongue brings a flame too close to some gunpowder, Saruman deftly moves the flame away = The Wise Man and Ash respectively in Army of Darkness. Another The Wizard of Oz example: Saruman (through a possessed King Théoden) telling Gandalf that "You have no power here!", a line for line echo of what Glinda says to the Wicked Witch of the West. And another: Galadriel kisses the top of Frodo's head as he prepares to leave Lothlorien in a manner very similar to how Glinda kisses Dorothy as she is leaving Munchkinland. Aragorn throwing an apple at Pippin parallels the apple trees doing likewise at The Scarecrow. And again: Frodo and Sam (and Gollum) crouching behind a boulder as they watch enemy troops march past near an enemy citadel essentially duplicates the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion as they plot to enter the Wicked Witch's citadel. Can you tell that PJ loves this film yet? The fight scenes at Helm's Deep in The Two Towers have a certain similarity to those in Zulu. Orc's Drift, anyone? The look of King Theoden when he is possessed by Saruman owes a lot to the dusty visage of King Bruno the Questionable in Jabberwocky. |

The Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time film had a scene where the camera rotates around The Prince on a high tower to give a good view of the landscape. The exact same shot which was used for viewpoints in Assassin's Creed. Not surprising, considering that both franchises are owned by Ubisoft and the videogame Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands even allows the Prince to wear an assassin costume as a completion extra. | |
