DYN: ...When Leela welds Bender to the wall of his apartment, all the pictures on the walls are pictures of cars (a bit of foreshadowing, perhaps)?
References:
"The Howling" (1980 film) --The title
"The Wolf Man" (1941 Lon Chaney film) --The Gypsy woman is taken from this werewolf film (and probably a dozen others, but this one is the most famous)
"Christine" -- Driverless car running over people, like in the Stephen King Novel and John Carpenter film. "Christine" was a 1958 Plymouth Fury, and the first werecar we see was red, like the car in the film (even though no actual red Furies were produced that year).
"Foundation" and "Robot" novels, by Isaac Asimov -- Calculon's claim of being much older than he really is, as well as having been all the great acting robots of history, is similar to the long-lived robot R. Daneel Olivaw (cf. "Foundation and Earth"). Not a definite reference, but a possibility.
Incorrectly regarded as a goof: Calculon says he was David Duchovny, although he was just an assembly robot in 2019. Most likely that he had his appearance upgraded to Duchovny's some time later (as he says he does every few decades), to replace the human Duchovny.
My grade: B+/A-.
