Remember The Matrix?
Remember this pistachio commercial by Lewis Black? (Shown here at extreme low quality because I can't find a good one):
In The Matrix, Morpheus wears a black coat and a pistachio green tie when inside the matrix. I can't look at him without feeling like I'm seeing a pistachio commercial. Even though the commercial postdates The Matrix. By a lot.
And that, my friends, is intertextuality at work.
