Homage is used to show respect or dedication to a previous film or director. It can also be used in a comical way for example the scary movie franchise where they mimic scenes from other movie and put a funny twist on them. It is often used now because of the advances in technology, and there are many examples such as the opening scene to Jackie Brown(1997) being an homage to The Graduate(1967) but one of the first uses of homage was in swingers where they imitate the walking scene from Resevoir dogs. In the shots in this post it clearly shows the similarities between the two and how well dome the homage was done by Doug Liman (Director of Swingers).
