Top 10 Movies That Are Actually Connected To Each Other

Marvel was the first film to launch with its memorable Iron Man film in 2008. Later it also released Incredible Hulk. This made it clear that Marvel had a big plan. Meanwhile DC comics didn't want to fall back and came with Man of Steel in 2013. The shared universes are not just about superheroes. The Dark Universe which is populated by classic Universal creatures, started with The Mummy. Additionally, the MonsterVerse which features all manner of kaiju rampaging through city scapes, got its start with the 2014 Godzilla and the confirmation with Kong: Skull Island. Today, let us talk about some of such films which are related. 

1. Blade Runner and Prometheus

There are two major sci-fi franchises here, Blade Runner and Alien, and Prometheus is a part of it. Ridley Scott decided to merge these two, Blade Runner features the replicant manufacturing "Tyrell Corporation," while Alien features the "Weyland Corporation."

2. Tangled and Frozen

Tangled was a hit but Frozen was a Disney mega hit. Have you watched them? Many fans don't know that these films are related. In one of the scenes of Frozen, during Elsa's coronation, we can clearly see both Rapunzel and Flynn in the background wandering around inside the castle. They can be seen walking through the crowd as Anna sings "For the First Time in Forever".

3. Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction

It begins with the most sadistic characters he ever created-- Vic Vega-- better known as the diamond thief, Mr. Blonde in Reservoir Dogs. Vic's brother would make an appearance in Tarantino's follow up film Pulp Fiction as the well-read hitman, Vincent Vega. It was a major comeback role at the time for John Travolta.

4. Happy Gilmore and Little Nicky

Happy Gilmore is related to a hockey player turned golfer and Little Nicky is related to a literal son of Satan who is far too kind and gentle to survive in Hell. Nicky is a part angel which means he can directly talk to heaven. Happy's golf instructor named Chubbs meets an unfortunate demise. Happy offers him the head of the alligator that bit off Chubb's right-hand, but the sight of the dead creature frightens Chubbs so badly it causes him to jump out a window to his death. Later, Chubbs is shown in Heaven standing next to the alligator in peace.

5. Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Get Him to the Greek

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is a breakup film where a musician named Peter loses his girlfriend to a rockstar named Aldous Snow. In Get Him to the Greek, Hill plays Aaron Green, a music promoter who has to look after Snow and get him to the Greek Theater in Los Angeles.

6. The Evil Dead and Jason Goes to Hell

The '90s horror Jason Goes to Hell featured a scene with a legendary grimoire: The Necronomicon. And the same prop is used in the The Evil Dead series to bring forth the notorious, deadite monsters.

7. The Lion King and Hercules

If you are a celebrity demi-god whose father is the king of all gods, you better have some style. Disney's Hercules showed this in spades when he posed for a painting.

8. Jackie Brown and Out of Sight

It's not often that Quentin Tarantino directs a script that isn't from his own material. Elmore Leonard, the author of Rum Punch, was an exception.

9. Spy Kids and Machete

Like his director friend Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez can't resist building a cinematic universe. Typically not a kid-friendly director, he surprised his fans with Spy Kids in 2001, which focused on kids in training to become spies.

10. Sunset Boulevard and Mulholland Drive

Both movies are named after famous roads in Hollywood, and by no coincidence, the roads run parallel to one another, just like the two films. This was likely a deliberate choice by Lynch, who likes to work with mirror images.
