I noticed in Will Vinton's masterpeice animation adventures of mark twain that there is a clear reference to a Norman Mcclaren movie.... which I think is pretty cool on his part considering that when Vinton started out Mcclaren was one of very few artists who had explored stop motion as a technique of animation. Vinton's inclusion of the Mcclaren moment is pretty brief. It happens when the two neighbors are fighting over space between their yards. Even the sound is clearly referring to the original, in that it is comprised of staccato notes occuring only on each frame change.
here's the clip of the Mcclaren film:
