The scene when Zoidberg
bangs up against the screen and sucks the food off is a parody of
a scene from the film 'Independence Day'

Bender losing his head
was a very-direct reference to Star Trek TNG's episode "Time's Arrow",
where not only they find Data's head after 500 years of being buried
in San Francisco, but also they re-attach the 500-year old head to
his body... and it works!(Leandro Pardini)
