Hmmm, you did your ramble on Vows over a month ago, but I'm a little bit behind on Ask Greg. Okay, a very huge giant little bit.

Anyway, I have always wondered if a couple of scenes in Vows are in-jokes or not.

1. Xanatos' proposal. Two people alone at opposite ends of a huge table. A bit of a ref to a similar scene in the first movie of the modern Batman franchise?

2. The confrontation at the meat warehouse. Eerily similar to the climax of the second Predator movie. (Which I think Rachael Ticotin is in, now that I think of it) Gary Busy is tracking the Predator through a meat warehouse, wearing some kind of armored suit, weilding a weapon meant to disable, not kill the Pred, which also has a flashlight mounted on it, like Xanatos' dart gun. Of course, the Pred's not nearly as merciful to Gary...

Although it'll be quite belated by the time you get this, here's wishing you and yours a happy holiday season.

Well, first of all, that was from "Eye of the Beholder" not "Vows".

1. And, no, I don't think so. Just a rich guy cliche.

2. Never saw the second Predator movie. Someone may have though.

Thanks.
