The Terminator

The Terminator

The conversation in 4.02 Living Conditions about Parker’s interest in Buffy, (Xander says “Hasta” and “Buffinator” and Oz says “He’ll be back”) is a reference to The Terminator movies, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and directed by James Cameron.
In 4.15 This Year’s Girl, Buffy called Adam:

“the Terminator without the bashful charm.”

In 2.01 When She Was Bad, Willow and Xander referenced the movie when playing “Guess the Movie”.
In 4.21 Primeval, Adam has an arm-gun (”I’ve been upgrading”). This is reminiscent of the gun the Terminator has in the movie trilogy.
In 6.06 All The Way, Janice calls her mother “The Mominator”.
In 3.06 Billy, Cordelia says,

“You can’t barge into a police precinct and go all Terminator.”

At one point in the original Terminator movie, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s character drives into a police station and shoots up the place killing most of the police inside.
