Sarcasm is seldom anything other than rude, and never clever.

Or perhaps stick around, and along with others, try and make this board a better place?...

Yeah! Go to the library and read something! WTH?!
I sure did. Sarcasm is low IMO, BUT if your intention was to convey a 'good natured' 'ribbing' with it, then you would be better off with the emoticon.
You would however be much better of without sarcasm at all :lol

So I think the general trend so far can be summed up with the line" It’s ok to be a jerk as long as you’re a jerk to everyone equally. Jerk = ok, sexist jerk = bad. The Southpark defence.
But then…
I’m not sure if any people on this "Movie" section have any real interest in movies, but just in case, here’s where the initial post’s content left off.
A recap for those who came in late (born recently).
Even though Directors complain about being pressed for money and time, they somehow find ways to throw in a few in jokes, Hitchcock with his famous cameos for example.
There’s even a subgenre of in-jokes or "winks" where one director will pay homage to a friends success by secreting a character from a previous franchise into a current movie.
The below shot (of the people running) has an early example of how a very successful character from another merchandising franchise, was put into a movie to pay homage to a fried of the Director. A close parallel to the Raiders and CE3k appearances of Artoo, and possibly the first ever instance of this sort of thing.
What’s the Film, what’s the Character, and what’s the name of the person the homage is being paid to?

Here's a clue. If you can figure out the two "winks" in this picture, you'll be half way home to figuring out the "wink" in the puzzle (below).

time machine was easy.....I just check the Image file name....

I'll take your word for it. Plus it gives a chance for newer people to have a hunt around for the answer.

That's pretty good but still one layer off.
So you have the first part. The film is 1960 The Time Machine.
What's the character ?
Who's the homage to?
Hint: zoom in on the little girl's hand, if you have the DVD.
