This is pretty cool. I suppose I'd like to see a breakdown of the influences some of the more popular sources had on other things, or maybe to know who are the most prolific borrowers of references and themes (influencees? Chrome tells me that's not a word). Nevertheless, it's interesting to think about cultural references within a very closed environment like TV shows and movies as a network, with all the reasoning affordances as such.
As an aside, TV Tropes doesn't use HTTPS as far as I know (and according to this too [0]), so none of the show/movie links resolve unless you go in and remove the prefix and let the browser figure it out. Looking at your source, it seems you could just change the "https://" to "http://" or even "//" (although this would break when(/if) you start using HTTPS down the road).
A giant graph could be in the cards for future work, schedule permitting.
As for https, I'm currently hosting this with GitHub, but using my own domain so my browser kept complaining (correctly) that the page was using a SSL certificate from another domain. Eventually, I'll move to hosting this on my own somewhere, probably when I get the urge to run some server side code. Then I'll most likely make https the default.
