Recently went though this, rewatched TOS, TAS, and the first six movies for the first time as an adult. Holy crap, the number of references in all of my favorite media throughout my entire life that have been flying over my head was staggering. Even lyrics in my teenage emo songs were lifted straight from TOS dialogue.
The one that was most shocking to me was the ‘cement golashes’ line from Brand New’s Luca, lifted straight from Scotty’s mouth in the episode with the 1930’s mobster planet.
