Ohhh. I was wondering what that was. I thought it might have been a wierd version of the Contact gate. But i wasn't sure enough to include it in my list.

Is The Expanse (tv show) one of them? There's definitely a scene where somebody gets their head blown off.

Geralt from the Witcher is arm wrestling Pyramid Head. Earthworm Jim is at a a Dark Souls 'bonfire' with a chosen undead. Big Boss from MGS is kneeling next to Crash's podracer. Jar Jar is being eaten by a mimic from Dark Souls next to the Dead Space protagonist climbing the ladder. The man fighting the xenomorph at the bottom is holding what looks like a great sword from Dark Souls.

I've seen the red sword at the very top somewhere but for the life of me can't remember where. The puddle of blood makes me think it might be Dark Souls (yeah, another!) as some swords inflict bleed damage on the enemy or wielder.

edit-face hugger eggs on the left behind the big brain. Half Life logo on the right. Spawn is the teacher in Bart's classroom/Mario flower just to the left of Bart.

edit-Jesus, how did I miss the Futurama doop flag at the top!
