Its all over GW, names of skills, names of quests, its not hard to find them.

There is a skill called "It's Just A Flesh Wound!" which is a Monty Pithon quote.
Another is a quest called "Drakes On A Plain" which is a take on the movie "Snakes On A Plane"

Other pop-culture references (the ones I can remember off the top of my head, that is):

*Grabthar's Hammer - Unique Hammer, quote from Alan Rickman's character in "Galaxy Quest"

*Rodgort's Invocation / Mark of Rodgort - Fire Magic skills which cause Burning condition - Rodgort is "Trogdor" spelled backwards - Trogdor is "The Burninator" (Burninating the countryside!)

*Verata's Gaze / Verata's Aura / Verata's Sacrifice - Death Magic skills which affect Undead Minions - Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead" movies, in "Army of Darkness", the invocation "Klaatu, Verata, Nictu" renders the Necronomicon (Book of the Dead) inert and able to be claimed - Ash, of course, flubs it up by saying "Klaatu, Verata, Necktie" and unleashes the Army of Darkness (yay, Deadites!) upon the land

*Molotov Rocktail - Warrior Boss, Seige Devourer - twist on the IED "Molotov Cocktail"

*Enadiz the Hardheaded - Warrior Boss, Elite Skill Cap "Headbutt" - named after the French footballer Zinedine Zidane, who, in his last match, headbutted an opponent for making comments about his mother and sister

*The Black Beast of Arrgh - here's another Python reference for you

*The Darkness - bosses in the Tomb of the Primeval Kings - reference to the Dead Alewives' Dungeons & Dragons skit (also done by 8-bit Theatre and in the PC/PS2 game "The Summoner), one of the characters in the skit Galstaff the Light (who is a Collector in GW, Talmark Wilderness) casts "Magic Missile" at "The Darkness" - one of the items dropped by The Darkness is the Ogre-Slaying Knife, which has the same base damage as a Knife in D&D (1-4) and has +9dmg vs. Ogres (which was in the skit as well)

*In Eye of the North, in Jaga Moraine (I think) you see a White Rabbit that runs down into a hole; if you follow him, a ton of Vaettir spawn - this seems to be a reference to the Rabbit in Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail, when Tim the Enchanter (go go John Cleese!) warns Arthur and his men about the "Beast" with "sharp fangs and pointy claws" - they see the rabbit, laugh about it, and Tim tells them not to be fooled, then the rabit goes berserk and decapitates one of the Knights with a single leaping bite

*"You're a Mean One, Mr. Grenth" - Wintersday quest - play off of the song "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch" from Dr. Seuss' "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" animated classic

*Can't Touch This! - Paragon skill, negates Touch skills - reference to a song by MC Hammer done in the early 1990's

*Make your Time! - Paragon skill, Adrenaline gain - reference to the Flash parody "All Your Base Are Belong to Us", based off of the Sega game "Zero Wing" and it's absolutely horrendous English translation

*I Will Survive! - Wiki doesn't confirm this, but it could be a reference to the 1970's disco hit "I Will Survive!" by Gloria Gaynor, which was covered by Cake on their album "Fashion Nugget"

*None Shall Pass! - Warrior skill, KD's any moving foes in earshot - another Python reference for you - the Black Knight says this to King Arthur right after the Black Knight wins a fight against the Green Knight and Arthur et al try to go through area

*Bonetti's Defense - Warrior skill, Stance, blocks attacks and energy gain - reference to "The Princess Bride", when Wesley fights Inigo Montoya (too bad, we didn't get any Agrippa in GW... /wah)

Lots more, cba to search Wiki for them at the moment...

Never Give Up! Never Surrender! is the catch phrase from the character played by Tim Allen (I forget the name) of Galaxy Quest. They're 2 separate skills in GW.

I don't think you guys know what "innuendo" means.

You are posting allusions. Those are not the same thing.

Sorry, but 'a sticky operation' was not an innuendo either. It's a reference to 'a sticky situation', a common phrase, you were just interpreting it that way, like the 'watch it jiggle' one.

The objective in that quest is to defeat a bunch of Corsair Seamen.

Go ask your dad.

An innuendo is an indirect remark about somebody or something, usually suggesting something bad or rude; the use of remarks like this: "innuendoes about her private life" or "The song is full of sexual innuendo." The word is often used to express disapproval.

The term sexual innuendo has acquired a specific meaning, namely that of a "risque" double entendre by playing on a possibly sexual interpretation of an otherwise innocent uttering.

I can do wiki me.
