Talk:The Red Baron in popular culture

the red baron in star wars?

in the pop culture section about video-games, it says the Red Baron was mentioned in star wars x-wing squadron. How can that be? Star wars doesn't take place in our universe. If it's a homage, shouldn't that be mentioned?

I was going to comment on that, too. It just says "Star Wars X-Wing Saga" with no explanation of what the reference actually is, and there is no obvious explanation. I'm going to go ahead and remove it and if someone has a problem, they can add it back, with explanation quite easily. 68.181.241.67 (talk) 18:22, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Transformers Toy

There is a Transformers toy coming out soon that is a Red Baron themed redeco of a previously released Albatros D.III biplane mold. Is that worth mentioning? If it is, what section would it go under? So far the character hasn't appeared in any fiction in his biplane form. He has only appeared as such in toy form. --119.224.50.85 (talk) 21:20, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

References

Song references and bands

Um, it's not "Hey Hey Snoopy" by The McCoys, it's "Hang On Sloopy," and it has nothing to do with Manfred von Richthofen or The Red Baron. This is a good example of a Mondegreen, but unless you want to make mention of that, I suggest this entry be removed. CatalinaThePirate (talk) 03:43, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

LEGO Red Baron

Much like the Red Baron-themed Transformer, there was also a Red Baron LEGO Set, the 10024 Red Baron. I don't know where this should go, but maybe there should be a Red Baron Toy section to include all of the Red Baron themed toys and Red Baron influenced toys. --ThePlaneFan (talk) 23:36, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Bugs bunny cartoon

Yosemite Sam in the cartoon Dumb Patrol is an obvious reference to the Red Baron. He's also mentioned in the film the cartoon was named after, The Dawn Patrol. 128.233.4.254 (talk) 22:44, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Red Baron was not in "Flyboys"

In the movie flyboys, the red baron was never in it. His tri plane had no other picture other then the German Cross, and the charcther in the film is called Franz Wolfert) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.246.3.168 (talk) 18:40, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
