The Tradition Continues
You'll find the phrase See You Next Wednesday - a title to a fictional film - planted in some John Landis movies. It was the title for the first screenplay he wrote, and began as a line in 2001: A Space Odyssey. The above still is from The Blues Brothers.
The reference is starting to spread, as you can see here in the new Hellboy 2: The Golden Army trailer! I guess Guillermo del Toro is a bigger film geek than I thought...Labels: 2001: a space odyssey, film nerditry, film reference, geek out, geekity geek geek, guillermo del toro, hellboy 2, hellboy 2: the golden army, john landis, see you next wednesday, the blues brothers

I think you're right. I just noticed the Wilhelm scream in the first Hellboy movie when I watched it the other day.
Now that "The Wilhelm" has been pointed out to me, I hear it everywhere! Until now, though, I haven't seen "See You Next Wednesday" used by any other director!
Have you heard the song "That Calls for a Wilhelm Scream"?
