Jeg har ikke læst det noget sted, men det virker ret oplagt, at én eller
anden har brugt linien som en joker i en film, eller for at ære den
omtalte sci-fi-klassiker. Så er der gået mode i det, og pludselig gælder
det om at få vendingen skrevet ind i manuspkriptet på en så subtil måde
som muligt.
Vi nævner i flæng:
In the movie *Army of Darkness* (Evil Dead III), '"Klaatu Barada Nikto"
is the shibboleth needed to negate the demonic forces of evil, or
something'.
In *Return of the Jedi*, we're told, three of Jabba's entourage were
Klaatu, Barada and Nikto.

Samt diverse indlæg på
www.eeggs.com:
The same words (spelling-Klatu Barada Nikto) are used in an extremely
funny play "The Foreigner" by Larry Shue. The words are spoken by a
character pretending to be an "alien"

Klaatu Barada Nikto was also used in two episodes of "Honey, I Shrunk
the Kids: the TV Series", one of the two with the alien that married the
daughter (can't think of her name), and the one with the mummy.
As a side note, this is also a cheat in SimCity 2000, Network Edition.
If you want to unlock everything, you open the "Chat" window and write
"klatu verada nictu" (...)
This line is also uttered by Micheal Gambon in the movie TOYS when in
the finale, the sea-swine has locked onto him and he wants to stop it.
This line originally comes from "The Day The Earth Stood Still." Sam
Raimi and George Lucas are both fans of this film.
