You said..

2) If the script makes several references to itself (i.e. if characters mention that their lives would make a crappy movie, or characters point out that they are in a movie by winking at the camera), it may suck.

I would like to bring to light that Ferris Bueller's Day Off (one of the greatest movies ever made) makes numerous references to itself being a movie i.e. he talks to the camera on several accounts and at the end he says that the movie is over and tells the audience to go home (after the credits if you've yet to see it)

In addition to these points I bring up again the fact that you mentioned..

1) If the script makes multiple, lame, and/or blatant references to one or a series of movies (Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Kevin Smith Movies), it may not be very good.

Not only does Kevin refer to Star wars on many different accounts but also the John Hughes flicks (mainly in Dogma). Therfore, for you not to like our movie based on these three factors you have at the same time stated that you don't like said films which also "break" these so called rules. I rest my case.
