10 best Mighty Ducks parodies and cultural references

10 Best Mighty Ducks Parodies and Cultural References

Quote:

Any memorable TV or film franchise is*bound to*draw references in other programs or movies. The Mighty Ducks trilogy is no exception.

From late-night talk shows to blockbuster movies to sitcoms, The Mighty Ducks started getting stick salutes around pop culture as early as 1994, the year its sequel came out. The references have continued long after the franchise’s boom faded, and some are as fresh as this year, the first film’s silver anniversary.

It is certainly a testament to the lasting impact of these movies that others refer to them off-handedly or for humorous effect. Of these various Mighty Ducks parodies and pop-culture mentions, the 10 most memorable are as follows.

Quote:

1. Dawson’s Creek

One of the most well-known shows to air on The WB was Dawson’s Creek, which ran from 1998 to 2003. Starring Katie Holmes, James Van Der Beek and John Wesley Shipp, it also focused on Joshua Jackson’s Pacey Witter character.

The first-season episode, “Detention,” has the characters*discussing what happened to the actors in The Breakfast Club. When they hint that most of the characters are in TV obscurity, Pacey looks up and says, “No way! Emilio Estevez, he was in those Ducks movies, remember? Those were classics!”

While the characters look at him ironically, Pacey blankly stares back and says, “What?” making the scene memorable and certainly true. With Jackson’s background as Charlie Conway, the inside joke is second to none among Mighty Ducks references.

Great find.

It's amazing what you can find via Twitter. I wasn't even looking for anything and I came across it.

It's amazing how many people still love those movies so much.

I still love when Josh was apologizing for his line reading in D2 on twitter when the NHL did the ducks movie night.

He was on a plane during that if my memory serves me correctly. He did Tweet a couple things that night to be involved.

I loved that the NHL actually did that move night tribute to MD.

It still makes me laugh when I remember his apology to SAG when I watch D2.

I don't think I know what this is about.

This person has more followers than Josh. I like that she's calling him a DILF

I feel like it's probably time to revive the Mighty Ducks franchise with Josh Jackson as the hockey coach DILF he was born to play.

I don't know if I forgot or didn't know that they were even dating. She just recently ended a relationship with another actor.

That's a beautiful picture, I'd love to see more of the dress.

I believe it was Taye Diggs, her other co-star from Rent.

She and Taye Diggs got divorced a few years ago.

I just looked it up and they divorced in 2014.

Sandy K · 09-27-2017, 06:21 AM

She must have dated another actor before the Bash Brother.
