Pop culture in the Lost Islands [CLOSED]

Has anyone noticed all the pop culture references that the the developers have been slipping into the quests lately? For example:

Volcanic Eruptor's "Eruption Junction, What's Your Function?"

Obvious reference to Schoolhouse Rock and Conjunction Junction.

Jade Fire Kraken's "Catching Fire"

Someone's obviously excited for the latest movie installment in the Hunger Games Trilogy.

Enchanted Hoot Loop's "They're Called Illusions"

This one's a a bit harder but I'm pretty sure it's directly referencing Gob Bluth and this quote from Arrested Development: "Illusion, Michael. A trick is something a [lady of the night] does for money..."

Anyone find any others?

If you combine Free Ranger and Night Shift, you get Night Ranger. "Sister Christian" anyone?

I'm concerned about what we might see with wrecking ball.

There are things you can't unsee.

Pathetically (or not?) I only just figured out what you all were talking about. I guess I'm not fully up on my pop culture these days.

It's referencing Milee Cyrus's nude video controversy and it made my morning! Portaflip I owe you a hundred gems if they ever allow us to trade stuff we want in this game.

Just got a quest from Star Strike called "The Final Frontier". She also says "I am from a galaxy far, far away".

I see whatcha did there. A little poke to the nerd community. You Activision rockstars, you...
