In Shakespeare's Hamlet Act 2 Scene 2 Line 517-518 "For Hecuba Whats Hecuba to him or he to Hecuba" Hamlet refers to Hecuba because she went through similar experiences as to Hamlet, and Hamlet wanted Gertrude to act the same way, as Hecuba did when her husband and children were killed.

In Shakespeare's Hamlet Act 3 Scene 2 Line 357-358 Hamlet says: O heart, lose not thy nature, let not ever The soul of Nero enter this firm bosom. This alludes to Roman Mythology and how Nero was a Roman Emperor. This also refers to Nero and how he faced the same task in killing others. However, Hamlet does not want to lose his humanity, and doesn't want the soul of Nero to take over him, as Nero did kill with "cruelty".

Fun Fact: Nero's Uncle was also by the name of Claudius.

In Shakespeare's Hamlet Act 1 Scene 2 Line 153-154 Hamlet says: "My father's brother, but no more like my father Then I to Hercules" Hamlet alludes that he is nothing to Hercules, just like Claudius is nothing to Hamlet. This is also an allusion to Greek Mythology.

In Shakespeare's Hamlet Act 1 Scene 2 Line 140-141 Hamlet Says: "So Excellent a king, that was to this Hyperion to a Satyr." This alludes to Greek Mythology. This also relates to the tragedy of his father, and the carelessness expressed by his Uncle/mother. This is important because Hamlet is portraying how great of a King his father was by comparing him to a Titan, like Hyperion. He also compares his Uncle to a Satyr, which is a beast.

In Shakespeare's Hamlet Act 1 Scene 2 Line 149: "Like Niobe, all tears" is a reference to Niobe, who is a Greek Mythology character. This relates to Hamlets mother and how Hamlet is wishing this is how she would react. This is because Hamlets mother is not affected and falls in love with Claudius right after Claudius killed Hamlets father.

The television show "The Simpsons" refers to  "The Odyssey" by incorporating Homer Simpson in the episode called " THe Odyssey Homer". By incorporating Homer in the Odyssey, this shows how the reference is made to the real Odyssey. This is pop culture because it's a TV show which shows a lot of interest to many viewers today. This is effective because it shows each story/show can have similar ideas and still have similar connections, even if it is todays pop.

Lion King refers to Hamlet from the plot and how Scar (the Uncle) killed Mufasa (Father). This references Hamlet because this is the same ideal but with a kid oriented, cartoon based, movie instead. The reference is also made to Claudius killing Hamlets Father and Hamlet being Simba, and having to go through similar situations throughout the play/mother.
