15. Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982)

In Stranger Things 3, several scenes pay homage to Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Karen Wheeler's pool scene mirrors Phoebe Cates' famous red swimsuit moment. In the final episode, Steve knocks over a cardboard cutout of Phoebe Cates in the video store. Additionally, Dustin describes his girlfriend, Suzie, as looking like Phoebe Cates, "only hotter." These references cleverly nod to the iconic moments from the 1982 film.
