However, the other night's episode left me perplexed. The one where Jerry
and Elaine go to the "docks" and find a Saab turbo all torn up.. I'm sure
they were referencing a movie there but I don't know what it was.
So list as many as you can think of.

My two favorites are the two most obvious ones (probably):
Kramer and Newman doing the parody of "JFK" and the Zabruder
assasination film about Keith Hernandez and Roger McDowell attacking
them on the way out of a Mets game.
"That was one magic loogey."
The other one is the homage to "Three Days of the Condor" again with
Kramer and Newman in the episode where Kramer tries to get his mail
stopped.
"Here's how it's going to happen: maybe on a crisp autumn day
someone will approach you, maybe even someone you know..."

"Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" (George looking up and yelling
"Khaaaaaaaaan!")

I think that was just a parody of a typical crime drama cliche, with
cars taking the places of people that need identification in a morgue,
thus no particular movie involved.

Can't find Newman's "What took you so long?" (when the Police knocks
on his door in the episode he helps Elaine get rid of the dog) on your
list.
I always liked that line - just saw Wayne Knight say it again tonight.
Is that from a movie?

Sorry.. My mistake. It isn't from a movie.
But it is what David Berkowitz is rumored to have said when he was
arrrested.
Thanks. That explains the line, especially when we realize Newman was
also a postal worker. I knew it was "from something."
