Connections, in both directions

I Feel Pretty poster
“Schumer’s wide facial features reminded me of a blonde Lou Costello around the time of Buck Privates, or Jennifer Aniston‘s somewhat heavier, not-as-lucky sister who watches a lot of TV.” Wells was rightfully called out for this nonsense, not only by the online community, but by Schumer herself – both on Twitter and in the 12 Angry Menepisode of Inside Amy Schumer, which amounted to a 30-minute middle finger to Wells.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time poster
The stalwarts of this type of “Arabian Nights” film are the 1924 and 1940 versions of “Thief of Bagdad,” “The 7th Voyage of Sinbad” (1958), “Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves” (1944), “Sinbad the Sailor” (1947) and “Aladdin” (1992).

Down Periscope poster
It's set to "In the Navy" by the Village People, the vintage disco group that appears cavorting around the sub with the cast.
Beetlejuice poster
And it´s all about ghosts, which have been a subject of mirth since the days of Bob Hope ("The Ghostbreakers") and Abbott and Costello ("Hold That Ghost") to "Ghost" and "Ghostbusters."
Fury poster
There are several moments in writer-director David Ayer's World War II drama Fury that prove to be so brutal, direct and uncompromising, they make Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan seem as mirthful as the Abbott and Costello romp Buck Privates by comparison.

That's all the connections!
