10	* From ''YouTubePoop'':
11	** In ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yacqVp39e98 The LOL King]]'', one of the first jokes involves Simba falling off of Pride Rock as Rafiki holds him up. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIP1xnk2W3E&t=3m27s And then, the official blooper reel on the Diamond Edition DVD came]].
12	** In ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfnHpF4zs48 The Ganonator]]'', the titular ImplacableMan tells a punk to "Give me your face. Now!" In light of a certain PreMortemOneLiner from ''Film/TransformersRevengeOfTheFallen''...
13	* ''WebAnimation/FunWithAkatsuki'':
14	** A series of ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' flash video parodies on Website/YouTube featured the masked Tobi as a hapless, good-natured ButtMonkey with the catchphrase, "But Tobi is a good boy!" The fact that Tobi [[spoiler: turns out to be the BigBad of the series]] makes this even funnier.
15	** Two words... [[spoiler:Blind]] Itachi, since Kakashi mentions during the fight with the Itachi clone early in ''Shippuden'' that [[spoiler:Itachi's eyesight deteriorates every time he uses the Mangekyo Sharingan]]. This later becomes a plot point, as [[spoiler:Itachi's on the verge of losing his vision during his fight with Sasuke, and Sasuke later taxes his Mangekyo Sharingan almost to the point of blindness before using Itachi's eyes]].
16	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGCXXymyxX4 This]] parody of ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' using chibi-fied versions of G1 characters actually came out before [[http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Robot_Heroes a toyline that did the exact same thing.]]
17	* In the ending of episode 2 part 2 of 'WebAnimation/FourSwordsMisadventures'', Green explains that the scene of his Japanese counterpart having sex (or the implication that he was having sex) with Zelda in the ending won't happen for them because "they are in the censored english version", to which Red says starkly "The censors always ruin the fun." A few months later, any attempts at doing the episode on Website/YouTube ended up blocked thanks to that scene, thus forcing Haidoukendude (or hitthefloor729, as he is known on [=YouTube=]) to do a special [=YouTube=] edition of the episode where he not only had to put a bulletin on the scene in question with big letters to explain that what the Japanese versions of what Link and Zelda were saying, despite appearances, did NOT translate to anything suggestive, but also went as far as to post a link to the actual translation, thus spoiling the joke, meaning that the joke was ruined for everyone due to censorship.
18	* The Creator/GonzoSSM animated short, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0jcL4i9OqI What Happened to Megaman]] made the prediction that Mega Man would be joining Super Smash Bros before he was officially announced. Turns out Nintendo [[InvokedTrope did want him.]]
19	* ''[[WebAnimation/Nin10Doh [=$00pah NiN10Doh!=]]]'':
20	** One of the most remembered gags from this flash animation is [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Lucas and Dawn]] (and Creator/GameFreak) realizing that after having [[OlympusMons Arceus the PokéGod]] in their game, they can't [[PlotLeveling go any higher]] for the fifth generation. The official announcement of the fifth generation in late January 2010 wouldn't have been hilarious in itself... except that it happened only one week before Kirbopher, the creator of the animation, started voicing a character on ''[[Anime/PokemonTheSeries the actual show]]''.
21	** Two of the Pokémon Lucas claims they had caught at the time were "life and death". Despite speculation about some of the legendaries at the time, there were no true embodiments of those concepts... until the series brought in Xerneas and Yveltal. In the ''sixth'' generation.
22	* In episode 4 of the series ''Beebo'', when Beebo's master goes to Heaven and sees Kobe Bryant and pleads "Please don't rape me!". Guess what trial Kobe Bryant got into less than a year later.
23	* In the first ''WebAnimation/DeclineOfVideoGaming'' (a flash series that theorized what video games be like in the future), one game "featured" was ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid 5'', where Solid Snake was an old wheel chair bound man. In real life ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots'' features an old (but not wheel chair bound) Snake.
24	* ''WebAnimation/EverythingIsBroken'': In part 13 LG Creepybloom asks Rainbow Dash for help to find FI Creepybloom claiming her to be very dangerous, Rainbow Dash on the other hand does not take her seriously and asks her to calm down and wondering "how much harm could a filly do?", the video was posted '''after''' [[EnfantTerrible Cozy Glow]], a pegasus filly, was revealed to be [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS8E25SchoolRazePart1 planning to suck out all the magic from Equestria to claim herself as empress]], but the script itself was completed '''before''' [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS8E12MarksForEffort Cozy Glow's introduction]].
25	* In the 7th episode of ''WebAnimation/SuperMarioBrosZ'', the Seven Koopalings and Bowser Jr. appear together, the first time in any ''Mario''-related things that this has happened. Almost a year later, ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBrosWii'' comes out which has the first canonical game involving Bowser Jr. and the seven Koopalings being together...
26	* WebAnimation/HomestarRunner:
27	** The WebAnimation/StrongBadEmail "for kids" is about the idea of Strong Bad running a kids' show. At the end, Strong Bad comments that Homsar would be a better host, followed by a [[CutawayGag mock kids' show being hosted by Homsar]]. It had, among other things, silly songs being repeated over and over. Matt Chapman, creator of Homestar Runner, later went on to direct ''{{Series/Yo Gabba Gabba}}'', a kids series with silly songs being repeated over and over.
28	** An early Strong Bad Email had a fan write in to say he missed the simple early days of [=SBEmail=] where Strong Bad would answer an email without some kind of gimmick. The immediate gag was that this was followed by Strong Bad's computer malfunctioning and exploding, but the email is even funnier when you consider that later episodes of Strong Bad Email would only get longer and more elaborate, with plenty of Easter eggs and other "gimmicks".
29	** In the first "Biz Cas Fri" short, Homestar calls Strong Bad his "dog", but spells it "D-O-G-E", leading to Strong Bad's confused reply "I'm your [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/doge doge]]?!" According to the Know Your Meme page, the use of "doge" even inspired the name of the meme.
30	** In the Strong Bad Email "techno", clicking on the Cheat's lightswitch at the end pops up a poster for a "lightswitch rave" featuring "DJ The Stick and DJ from ''Series/FullHouse''". Fast forward to 2016, and a sequel series called ''Series/FullerHouse'' has, among other things, Stephanie Tanner (''not'' her sister D.J., because of {{irony}}) become an actual DJ.
31	** Coach Z's rap song "These Peoples Try to Fade Me" features the line "And I got a bunch of types, a bunch of laser dabs." No one has a clue what he meant by that at the time, but fast forward a decade or so and "dabbing" is a dance move popular in the hip-hop community, made mainstream by the group Music/{{Migos}}. As a bonus, it apparently originated in the Brothers Chaps' hometown of Atlanta, Georgia!
32	* The end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moGakgI6ldw this video.]] A few weeks later, Game Grumps release [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWiYoR0pX7k this episode.]]
33	* In the anime adaptation of ''Manga/ArakawaUnderTheBridge'', Hoshi (the mugger during a comedic scene in ''WebVideo/VaguelyRecallingJoJo'') gets voiced by Creator/TomokazuSugita. Later on, Tomokazu gets to voice Joseph Joestar in the 2012 anime adaptation of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure''. This scene is hilarious if you know that because Rubber Soul had just technically gave Joseph Joestar a coconut backbreaker.
34	** During the second episode of the High Priestess mini-arc, UsefulNotes/JackTheRipper does a {{filk song}} based on the Japanese 24 commercials. Before this, Rikiya Koyama voiced [[Series/TwentyFour Jack Bauer]] in the Japanese dub, and got in as Yoshikage Kira in [[VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureAllStarBattle All Star Battle]]. He also voiced Will A. Zepelli in the Phantom Blood movie, but no one likes to talk about that.
35	** Old Joseph was saved by [[spoiler:Ceasar Zeppeli]] when he was fighting against Empress. In ''VideoGame/JoJosBizarreAdventureEyesOfHeaven'', [[spoiler: Ceasar returns from the dead]] and meets old Joseph.
36	* ''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'':
37	** All the ghost stuff in the earlier seasons ended up oddly prescient following TheReveal of [[spoiler:the ghosts actually being AIs]]. And in an specific case, Church's exasperated cry of, "Holy crap, who is running this army?!" becomes utterly hilarious when we find out the person running the Red and Blue armies is, in fact, [[spoiler:Dr. Leonard Church, whose mind served as an inspiration for the Church AI]].
38	** When performing a hostage exchange near the end of Season 2, Caboose calls Donut [[ItMakesSenseInContext "Major Cinnamon Bun."]] Keep in mind that Season 2 of ''Red vs. Blue'' aired three years '''before''' the first ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' short even aired.
39	** In 2015, the newest line of [[AwesomePersonnelCarrier armored infantry fighting vehicles]] created and used by [[UsefulNotes/WeAreNotTheWehrmacht the Bundeswehr]] were named "[[https://www.bundeswehr.de/en/organization/army/news/the-puma-armoured-infantry-fighting-vehicle-5227994 the Puma AFIV]]". Evidently, someone high-up in the German military might be a fan of ''Red vs. Blue''.
40	** In the first alternate ending for Episode 100, all of the Reds and Blues end up in a massive free-for-all that ultimately ends with a TotalPartyKill, with Caboose being the last character left alive (at least until a vehicle falls on him). ''Many'' years later in 2020, ''WebAnimation/DeathBattle'' made an episode showing which team would have won if every character had fought seriously like in Episode 100's alternate ending... [[spoiler:and it ''also'' ended with Caboose as the last one alive, except this time he survives the whole thing]].
41	** In Season 6, Sarge's call gets dropped and he complains about the stupid 4G network. At the time the joke was written, 3G was in prominence, and the joke was that the futuristic technology wasn't working right. Now it just comes off as a TakeThat to modern cell phone technology.
42	** In season 15, film student turned news cameraman Jax Jonez says one of his film ideas, ''Moon Doom'', concerns a disaster movie where the Moon is falling into Earth. Five years later comes out a movie with that exact plot, ''Film/{{Moonfall}}'', [[https://twitter.com/JomiAdeniran/status/1433572327946477568 leading a fan to warn the season's showrunner about this]] {{Defictionalization}}.
43	** Also from season 15 is a case that could be HarsherInHindsight but [[CrossesTheLineTwice still ended up funny]], as Donut is questioned on how he managed to set a water park on fire, which [[https://www.reddit.com/r/RedvsBlue/comments/avhja4/god_damn_it_donut/ somehow happened]] [[https://www.nieuwsblad.be/cnt/dmf20190226_04210954 when a tube slide in Belgium caught fire in 2019]].
44	** In a cross-show case, Season 16 has Atlus Arcadium Rex venting off his frustration by shooting lightning at a moon, eventually shattering half of it to make it resemble the moon from fellow Creator/RoosterTeeth show ''Webanimation/{{RWBY}}''. This episode occurred in July 2018. Four months later, ''RWBY'' reveals that their moon was indeed shattered by an angry god throwing a fit.
45	** In season 3, Caboose makes a comments about how "time is made of circles". Come season 17, they become [[TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight hilariously prescient]] once it's revealed that [[spoiler:black holes in the RvB verse allow time to loop back on itself to the Big Bang]].
46	* The HalloweenEpisode of ''WebAnimation/RWBYChibi'' reveals that Ruby's birthday is on Halloween, which was later [[WordOfGod confirmed as canon to the main show]]. This makes her inclusion in ''VideoGame/BlazBlueCrossTagBattle'' more amusing when you realize the game also has Rachel Alucard, another young girl dressed in black and red whose birthday is also on Halloween.
47	* ''WebAnimation/{{Shrapnel}}'': In 2018, the second ''KILL CONTRACT'' episode, ''Once Upon a Time in Uganda'' came out, which introduced the Ugandan Knuckles, a race of [[FunnyAnimal deformed echidna people]] based directly off of a meme character of the same name, whose [[CharacterCatchphrase Catchphrase]] is a reference to the Ugandan action movie, ''Film/WhoKilledCaptainAlex'', by Ramon Film Productions, AKA Creator/{{Wakaliwood}}. A few years later, Wakaliwood officially announced a Wakaliwood documentary film, titled . . . [[https://youtu.be/s7s00HGzwQQ Once Upon a time in Uganda]]![[note]]Both are likely coincidentally referencing ''Film/OnceUponATimeInTheWest''.[[/note]]
48	* ''WebAnimation/MinilifeTV'':
49	** In "The Semi-Finals", Ian reveals that mummy terrorists used the Power Brick to summon their giant cat goddess Pockets to Legondo. Three years later, ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGONinjagoMovie'' would also use the idea of a giant cat being summoned to a LEGO universe.
50	** "Super Mini-Bros", an episode that homages the ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' games, seems more amusing with LEGO announcing [[Toys/LEGOSuperMario official Mario products]] in 2020.
51	* [[https://youtu.be/DJJmpVvEQ94 This]] parody of ''VideoGame/RhythmHeaven'' with ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'' characters replaces the "Packing Pests" segment with one where Sakurai adds characters to the game and swats away others. Not only would several of the characters he swats away -- specifically [[Franchise/KingdomHearts Sora]], [[VideoGame/{{Minecraft}} Steve]], [[VideoGame/{{Undertale}} Sans]], VideoGame/BanjoKazooie, and VideoGame/{{Cuphead}} -- eventually make it into the game as DLC characters and costumes, but two of the more improbable characters used would make it into fighting games that quickly got compared to ''Smash'' (ComicStrip/{{Garfield}} in ''VideoGame/NickelodeonAllStarBrawl'' and [[Franchise/ScoobyDoo Shaggy]] in ''VideoGame/MultiVersus'').
52	* In the ''WebAnimation/JaidenAnimations'' video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0t42rhWKAs Dating things I shouldn't]]", Jaiden tries out some weird {{Dating Sim}}s. She explains that she's always had trouble understanding romance, and it shows: she struggles at the games she plays, ending up robbing a bank in ''Speed Dating For Ghosts'' instead of dating anyone, picking three salamanders in a TotemPoleTrench in ''The Ratchelor'', and going after the faceless Galaga Ship in ''VideoGame/NamcoHigh''. A few months later, Jaiden would release "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF1DTK4U1AM Being Not Straight]]", in which she realizes that she's UsefulNotes/{{aromantic}} and UsefulNotes/{{asexual}}, which explains why she's so bad at romance-based games.
53	* ''WebAnimation/FiftyWaysToDieInMinecraft'': Part 3, Death 41 is the Titanic being struck by an iceberg after the captain says "there are no icebergs in Minecraft". Icebergs were added to ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' a year and a half later with the Update Aquatic.
54	* ''WebAnimation/FoxyGetsHooked'': One of the children's drawings in the background says "What's with the eyes?" and another asks if the animatronics are high[[note]]Although here, it's mostly referring to their CreepyShadowedUndereyes in the original game[[/note]]. When the ''Film/FiveNightsAtFreddys2023'' movie teaser was released in May 2023, the animatronics' [[RedEyesTakeWarning glowing red eyes]] caused people to joke once again that the animatronics are high.
55	* Creator/JamieVsTheVoid:
56	** There's a scene in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KHjHjuevOUI "Why I changed my Name."]] where Jamie is seen entering their new name into the name field in ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingWildWorld'' and gets the remark "A fine name... for a ''boy!''" from Kapp'n, which Jamie cringes at. At the time Jamie identified only as non-binary and had a more androgynous presentation, but eventually came to identify as transmasculine and began presenting more masculine, making this scene look quaint in retrospect.
57	** A non-video example - when Jamie first got Kepler he updated his social media bios to include the phrase "doggo dad" despite presenting as female at the time. Post-transition, this description of himself has become a lot more apt.
58	* This [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fez8Gj2mDRg Cartoon Cafe]] short pokes fun at Nickelodeon All Star Brawl by having Bugs Bunny comparing NASB to Multiversus by using the fact that the game didn't have voice acting when it came out. Sometime later, voice acting would finally be added to All Star Brawl. Sadly the short also became HarsherInHindsight, as Bugs Bunny claims that people were forgetting about NASB due to how lacking it was comparing to Multiversus, only for Multiversus' popularity starting to decreases over the months ever since that video was released, while All Star Brawl's popularity not only would increase, but the game would even gain a sequel.
