It’s clearly spoofing something culturally relevant, but I’ve never known what famous movie it’s based upon.

It's referencing the final scene of The Graduate (1967). You can watch it here..

I didn't realize they actually used the exact church. Wayne's World 2 scene for reference

The Simpsons also had a good parody of that scene as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyCjURaxEsg

Awesome, thank you! It's wild how much of a shot-for-shot job they did.

I'm pretty sure they used the same church to do the same thing in Bubble Boy as well. Except in that he just bursts through the front door.
