[Thread was initially locked for redundant start, but I reopened it because a thread dedicated to homages/references/etc. in NME specifically didn't seem like a bad idea. -Reichu]
Interesting find. Montage music inspired from another film:

Yeah, we've known about that for a while and have discussed it in IRC. Has it not been posted here before?

It was discussed in the music thread.
The track is used more than once in the film, however-- the full version is heard during a montage elsewhere in the film. You also hear the motif throughout the soundtrack; it's Inspector Yamashita's theme.

Welp, no need for this one then, I guess.

Was it just me or was Mari/Shinji's kiss scene some sort of homage to Asuka/Shinji's almost kiss in NGE episode 9? the way Mari seemed to be closing her eyes and the angle made it seem like she was lying down, sleeping while Shinji was blushing a bright red.

In this time of Rebuild, I'm proud to be one of the few fans of the original NGE, and one of the last proud fans of Asuka Langley Soryu.

(I'm not taking credit for spotting all of these, just listing them)
The conclusion of the Zeruel fight contains an homage to episode 39 of Revolutionary Girl Utena.
The decontamination process at the water treatment plan is an homage to The Andromeda Strain.
The dummy plug activation noise is a line of dialog from Colossus: The Forbin Project
The layout of various Nerv installations borrow location names from The Divine Comedy.

These are not so Rebuild specific -- episodes 13 and 24 respectively.

I respectfully beg to disagree.
episode 13 wrote:* An elevator ascends the huge vertical hole
Asuka: What? Strip again?
Ritsuko: From here on in lies the ultra-clean room. Just showering and
changing your undies are not enough.
Asuka: Why do I gotta go thorough all these things just for the
auto-piloting test?
Ritsuko: Not only does time progress, but the technology of EVA as well.
We always need new data.
Asuka: What?
------------------
* Door Opens. All three pilots are naked.
Asuka: There, I'm just as you wanted--washed and cleansed seventeen times.

It's been said in other threads, but I'll repeat it here.
When the Dummy System is activated, it makes a sound, it sounds like some computer voice. Here is what it says when reversed:
"Freedom is an illusion. All you lose is the emotion of pride. To be dominated by me is not as bad for human pride as to be dominated by others of your species."
It's a quote from the cult classic sci-fi film Colossus: The Forbidden Project. The context is The speech that Colossus makes at the end of the film when he has successfully dominated humanity.
Another Sci-fi reference is the number on the shuttle Gendo is in. It's FX5 1701. The FX5 is a reference to Firebal XL5. The 1701 is the number of the Enterprise.

Although the references are different, the context is still the same. I believe in 22, when Eva-00 is getting the Spear, the deeper layers of Dogma are referred to as the "Malebolge Trenches". Rebuild keeps the "Nerve is Hell" thing, but references different parts of it, which really only makes it more overt.
"Now, from Nature we obtain abundant information about ourselves, and precious little about others. About the woman you clasp in your arms, can you say with certainty that she does not feign pleasure? About the woman you mistreat, are you quite sure that from abuse she does not derive some obscure and lascivious satisfaction? Let us confine ourselves to simple evidence: through thoughtfulness, gentleness, concern for the feelings of others we saddle our own pleasure with restrictions, and make this sacrifice to obtain a doubtful result." -The Divine Marquis

You can't tell from still screenshots, but these columns in the back of Ritsuko's computer room have the red dots moving left and right at varying speeds.
I saw Jurassic Park in a theater tonight and noticed very similar columns all over the park's control room. Not exactly the same, but still black columns with red dots moving left and right. I don't own Jurassic Park on DVD, so a big thank you goes to Reichu for these screenshots.
Jurassic Park is a story about scientists who create clones of ancient, often giant organisms that they think they can control but they can't.

Wait, what? I just watched 2.22 recently and I don't remember that.
