Wishology!/References

Cultural references
During the three parts of Timmy Turner's trilogy wish at the beginning, Wishology bases its references from three science fiction films: The Matrix, The Lord of the Rings, and Harry Potter. In Timmy's first trilogy wish, Timmy—under his alias Teo—is dressed as Neo from The Matrix, while Mr. Crocker is dressed as Neo's antagonist Agent Smith. Timmy also dodges Mr. Crocker's lasers in a style similar to that done in the original film. In his second trilogy wish, the group arrives at Middle-earth. Timmy is dressed as Frodo, Wanda and Poof are dressed as Hobbits, and Cosmo takes the appearance of Gollum. In the third, Harry Potter-themed trilogy wish, where everyone is in Quidditch match, Timmy is dressed as the film's main character Harry Potter and Poof takes the form of a quidditch snitch. Timmy's evil baby-sitter Vicky is "Moldywart", a reference to the antagonist of the Harry Potter film series Lord Voldemort.

Whilst people are laughing at Timmy, there is "Hahahas" around him; possibly a nod to Peanuts (comic strip).

Throughout Timmy's travel in space with Mark the Alien and Timmy's enemies in "The Exciting Middle Part" and during the beginning of "The Final Ending", Wishology focuses its media references to the George Lucas film series Star Wars. On their way to Planet Frigidarium in "The Exciting Middle Part", the group dresses up as the main characters of Star Wars: Timmy as Luke Skywalker, Mark as R2-D2, Crocker as Chewbacca, and Vicky as Princess Leia. Inside the cantina, Crocker clears his throat in a way that sounds like Chewbacca's voice. All the aliens inside resembles the Star Wars cast. The opening sequence of "The Final Ending" features text recapping the ending of the previous part of the Wishology story in the style of the Star Wars opening crawl.

The television film contains a number of other cultural references. In "The Big Beginning", when he grabs a muffin before he leaves his house, Timmy accidentally chooses but then rejects the Fairy-versary muffin, the magic muffin used in the first The Fairly OddParents television film Abra-Catastrophe!. During Jorgen Von Strangle and Timmy's journey throughout Fairy World to find the Cave of Destiny, Jorgen swings through the trees in a manner similar to Tarzan does. The Lead Eliminator's attire of a black coat and sunglasses is similar to those worn by The Terminator. The weapons M.E.R.F. agents use in order to fight Timmy are similar to those used by the Men in Black. When trying to figure out the chosen one riddle in order to find the white wand, Timmy becomes chased down by the police for being accused of being a quarter thief and smashing a statue at the Dimmsdale museum. To avoid being caught, he uses a Mona Lisa painting to disguise his face, and one of the cops make note of his "Renaissance smile". Towards the end of Timmy's rock solo performance at the M.A.R.F., Gene Simmons notes Timmy's long tongue when Timmy licks the guitar, a tribute to Simmons' own long tongue.

At the beginning of "The Exciting Middle Part", Timmy is in Fairy World in front of fairy game geeks. He plays The Chosen One Video Game using a white wand guitar controller imitating the actual white wand, like a Guitar Hero controller imitating a real guitar instrument. When Mark's space pod plunges into the Earth and destroys an Eliminator disguised as Mark, the Eliminator's feet curl up in a way similar to the Wicked Witch does. Mark finds a working fake-i-fier used by the Eliminator and uses it to try three disguises, one of them being American singer and actress Tina Turner. At the site of the Abracatraz Prison, where the kidnapped fairies are being held hostage, its front gate contains an inscription that reads "Abandon all hope, ye who here enter", which when translated into Latin reads "Lasciate ogne speranza, voi ch'intrate", the phrase used at the entrance gate to Hell in the Inferno chapter of Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy. In order to get Dark Laser to come to Earth so Timmy, along with Mr. Crocker and Vicky, can board on his death pod and blast off into space, Timmy posts a video making fun of him onto a website called "TooYube", whose name and logo are similar to those of YouTube. Right before Frigidarium is about to be imminently sucked by The Darkness, Turbo Thunder flies Timmy and Mark to another planet, Thunder World. The planet features a "thunder wonderland", an amusement park with the Las Vegas Strip theme, evidenced by hotels and palm trees.

In "The Final Ending", Cosmo is fed up with the Lead Eliminator constantly attacking his family and godchild, so he transforms into a giant creature named "Cos-zilla", a reference to the Japanese movie monster Godzilla. During Timmy's and his fairies' revisit the Blue Moon, they run into Turbo Thunder, who tells them how alone in the universe he was after the rock guardian threw him over the planet's horizon. Since then, he made a personified friend, a rock with a happy face, similar to Chuck Noland's companion Wilson the volleyball in the 2000 drama film Cast Away. In his flashback, Turbo Thunder receives an invitation flyer to the "Chosen One Competition" in Fairy World. On the flyer, the phrase "Chosen One" is printed in American Idol font. At the competition venue, the four fairy elders sit as judges behind a table in front of the auditioners like the American Idol judges do so.

Trivia

 * In this episode it reveals that Trixie has a dog.
 * In this episode Timmy's parents and friends really did meet with his godparents like in Abra-Catastrophe, although this time around Jorgen does not threaten to take away Timmy's fairies for it since the events that lead to the meeting were beyond Timmy's control.
 * Some shots of Timmy in parodies of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and The Matrix are seen.
 * This is the first and only time a continuing arc of episodes (three) were released.
 * When Timmy tried to find a way to get everything right, he found the Magic Muffin from Abra-Catastrophe, but he refused it this time probably because it caused a lot of damage the last time it was used.
 * Whenever Timmy's name is stated out loud, Eliminators would appear. This is a reference to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows where whenever someone said the Voldemort's name out loud (or at all!), Snatchers (a form of Death Eater) would appear.
 * The MERF van is a parody of the Mystery Machine.
 * Timmy and Trixie kissed in The Exciting Middle Part.
 * So far the both longest Nicktoon & Fairy Odd Parents movie made which it was a 3 night episode each part being 44 mins (1 hour with commercial breaks) which makes the movie almost 3 hours long.
 * In part 3, Jorgen calls the robot in the leather jacket a Jerkinator. An ode to a previous movie, The Jimmy Timmy Power Hour 3
 * Timmy claims that he has been in love with Trixie since kindergarten.
 * TooYube is a copy of Youtube and it is very similar to the YouTube today.
 * This is the second time Timmy's parents met Poof, the first being in Sooper Poof.
 * The original script draft on Scribd was very different particularly in the third part; The Final Ending. Possibly the most significant difference was that there was no memory wipe in the original draft. Also, at the bash, Timmy used his "Turbo Pit" powers to create a light show to celebrate. The training scenes with Timmy and Turbo Thunder were longer and were different. In fact, in the original draft, when Timmy says he's just a regular human boy, Turbo Thunder is surprised. These various differences between the scenes that were finally aired and the original draft have lead some fans to believe that this may have been intended to have been the series finale if The Fairly OddParents had not been renewed.
 * The line "Kiss me you fool!" that was said by the eliminator disguised as Trixie was already said by Tootie in Dread N' Breakfast.
 * In all three parts, Poof uses something to defend, fight and/or save someone. it goes in this order:
 * 1) Teething (Revealed in the Lord of the Rings parody)
 * 2) Ninja skills (From watching a violent movie)
 * 3) Cuteness (Everyone thinks babies are cute. Even Eliminators)
 * This is the longest Fairly OddParents special to date as it encompasses the equivalent of six episodes.
 * Almost every Fairly OddParents character in existence appeared in this special, including several notable minor characters (such as Billy Crystal Ball and Cupid), although a number of other characters were noticeably absent, including Tootie, Veronica, Tad, Chad, and Remy Buxaplenty, as well as most of the other villains such as the Pixies and Anti-Fairies (the latter of which appeared in the very next episode/special, "Anti-Poof".
 * Unlike most episodes, Jorgen is actually nice to Timmy and helps him in these episodes. In most other episodes Jorgen would be very sarcastic to Timmy and is very strict to him regardless of situation. It may be possible that this was because the Darkness was a very big threat and since it was after Timmy, he had to help Timmy as much as he can to "defeat" the Darkness.
 * Dark Laser apparently doesn't like it when Timmy does something that would humiliate him on his irritable foul incompetence regardless of it being direct or indirect to him. This is because Timmy posted the Fart Blazer video on Tooyube which everyone else found funny and when Dark Laser saw it he was angry and demanded who posted that.
 * Timmy apparently ends up forgetting about the kiss he and Trixie had during this movie; in A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner!, he states that Tootie is the only girl he has ever really kissed.

Goofs

 * It is not shown that Uranus and Saturn received ice wands. Pluto did not either likely due to the fact that Cosmo blew it up in a previous episode (or because in 2006, it was no longer a planet).
 * At the end of the whole movie, an Eliminator coughed up Timmy's parents. But in the story that Timmy told, one took his mother and one took his father. An explanation could be that no matter what Eliminator sucked them up, they can return from a different one since they all end up in the same place, The Darkness.
 * A laser hit a stereo and it didn't break. The same kind of laser hit the same stereo and it broke.
 * When Coszilla made 1 million wands disappear, he wouldn't make the tail and Wanda's wand disappear because there were 1 million wands on his back and there were 501 fairies.
 * Timmy accidentally kissed Mark once but Mark didn't have his Fake-i-fier malfunction. Also, he didn't feel any pain when he hugged Timmy. Last time it happened, Mark's skin was burned by Timmy's hug. Maybe since this was Mark hugging Timmy that was the difference. But in a previous episode, Mark hugged Timmy and his Fake-a-fier malfunctioned.
 * After the Darkness becomes the Kindness and moments before the Fairy Council and KISS reappear, Vicky, the Changs, and the Polar Bear Guardian were standing with Timmy's group, but then they suddenly disappear when the angle switches.
 * Jorgen was able to make Timmy's parents forget that Timmy was their son, but this is an error as Timmy's parents love him and faires cannot interfrere with true love (for romance or for children), but it is possible Jorgen changed the rule briefly so he could keep Timmy safe from the Darkness and the Eliminators. It is shown in episodes that Jorgen can change the rules if he wishes.
 * Although the Darkness swallowed the planets because it was hit first, Yugopotamia was swallowed and it did not do anything to it. It is possible the reason why is because the Yugopotamians think something is the opposite of what people think. It is also possible the Darkness did this on purpose to lure Timmy out so he could capture Timmy.
 * When Timmy is in "The Chosen One Suite" he calls room service for "Four strawberry shakes, six double cheese pizzas, extra towels and nine pounds of cocktail weenies." but when the cart arrives there are only three shakes and four pizzas.

Running Gags

 * In Part 1, the joke is that you have to say 'the cave propechy' with an echo (example: Timmy: The cave prochecy? Jorgen: No, go with the echo: THE CAVE PROPHECY!)
 * In Part 2, when a rocket appears, it is sent flying away without anyone aboard. This has happened to Crocker, the M.E.R.F. Agents, Jorgen and Queen Jipjorrulac & King Gripullon.
 * When people say an acronym's short name they say it shouldn't be confused with another acronym's short name.
