I just watched Metropolis for the first time, and let me say I was surprised by seeing the references I had missed. Though it wasn't until the Thin Man put on his hat that I was like "wait a min, that guy is super familiar..."
Hehe, there's quite a few Metropolis references in Dark Science, but yeah Melchior is basically 1:1 with the Thin Man. Or I guess the Thin Man if he was forced to be a protagonist against his will.
