Spun-off from 

Terminator Salvation: The Machinima Series (2009) (TV Series)
This web series is a prequel to the movie.

Spin-off 

Terminator Salvation (2009) (Video Game)

References 

The Great Escape (1963)
When Marcus takes a motorcycle and jumps over a barbed wire barricade it's exactly like when Steve McQueen jumped over a barbed wire barricade in "The Great Escape"; in reality, McQueen crashed his bike as Marcus does. The successful jump in "The Great Escape" was done by a stuntman.
Apocalypse Now (1979)
Director McG said the opening helicopter raids in this film were inspired by the Coppola flick.
The Terminator (1984)
The character Kyle Reese says the immortal line "Come with me if you want to live!" like he does in the original instalment. This time, John Connor cryptically tells the Resistance, "I'll be back!" (from SkyNet).
Witness (1985)
Director McG referenced the famous nude scene for the nude moment (this scene is only in the Terminator: Salvation directors cut).
Aliens (1986)
In both movies the lead is in an elevator, chased by the villan, and shouting "Come on!" at the elevator; In both movies a similar mobile motion detector is used and makes the same sound.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (1991)
John Connor receives his scar seen in the intro. A result from "reverse-engineering" of time travel, John breaks into Skynet, using hand-held electronics. Just as his younger self did at Cyberdyne.
Transformers (2007)
When Connor and crew are testing the signal on the hydrobot, the scene is nearly identical to a scene in Transformers where they are examining Scorponok's tail.
