Trivia: During the end credits, you can see various drawings. One of the drawings is The Backson from Winnie the Pooh (2011), which was also directed by Don Hall.
Trivia: Narrating in 1969, Kya said, "How birds sing mostly at dawn because the cool, moist air of morning carries their songs and their meaning much farther." This is no longer the primary view. Some scientific research found their subject sparrows' songs were louder (or just as loud) at noon than during the so-called "Morning Chorus." It appears the "Morning Chorus" might just sound louder because there are fewer other sounds at that time of the morning to drown them out (i.e, it is quieter). (00:37:15)
Trivia: The first film in the franchise to feature a female "Pinhead," as portrayed by actress Jamie Clayton, a trans-woman. Despite some minor backlash online, original Pinhead actor Doug Bradley has spoken out in support of Clayton, noting that the franchise has always been transgressive and unique, and that he loved her performance on the show "Sense8." It should also be noted that the Cenobites in the original book were mostly androgenous, though "Pinhead" was said to have a feminine voice.
Trivia: Towards the end when young Adam takes the light saber, he jumps and lands saying "super hero landing", as mentioned by Deadpool in his movie played by Ryan Reynolds.
Trivia: When Jack Russell first begins walking down the hallway with the mural on the walls, the first image he sees is a comic book accurate drawing of Gorr the God Butcher, the main antagonist from Thor: Love and Thunder. (00:02:29)
Trivia: Spoiler! There is a mid-credits scene with Commander Burnside. He is complimenting his space shield that also zaps giant bugs.
Trivia: Willis' LAST film that will be released. It was filmed about a year before the 4/04/22 announcement that he was diagnosed with aphasia (a type of frontotemporal dementia that affects the ability to speak, write, and understand written language) and "stepping away from acting."
Suggested correction: I'm not sure what you mean by this is his last film to be released when 3 films have been released since "A Day to Die" came out. Not to mention 2 upcoming films set to be released shortly. Plus, Willis had finished 3 Lionsgate films whose releases are unknown.
Fake news? I read this somewhere on-line.
Trivia: The film is inspired by the classic Mel Brooks comedy "Blazing Saddles," and is intended to be a child-friendly retelling, with many near-identical sequences. In fact, it was originally titled "Blazing Samurai," and it would have been about an African-American man becoming a samurai. It was eventually retitled, and the studio decided to rework the narrative by making it about a dog living in a world of cats, in order to make the anti-racism message more subtle and "universal."
Trivia: When Marlon Wayans is attacking the killer clown dragging the axe in the school, he says "homie don't play that." That is his brother Damon Wayan's famous tag line where he dressed as a clown in the series In Living Color. (00:39:27)
Suggested correction: Marlon Wayans didn't portray Homey The Clown in Living Color. Homey The Clown was played by his brother Damon Wayans.
Trivia: Mike asked the Sheriff, "What flavor of ketchup?" and the Sheriff replied, "Heinz 57." Heinz 57 is not a flavor of ketchup and, contrary to popular belief, it did not reflect the number of varieties of condiments Heinz had for sale when the company started using the logo - which is what it actually is, a logo. There is an account of how the logo came to be. The Brand Director for Heinz reported that the 57 actually stands for his (5) and his wife's (7) "lucky" numbers. (00:44:55)
Trivia: In the movie, all of Nicolas Cage's tattoos are hidden with makeup and his nickname is spelled "Nick" instead of the usual "Nic" to subtly indicate that while the character is indeed inspired by the real-life Nicolas Cage, it's an exaggerated "movie version" of him.
Trivia: Smart Beavis and Smart Butt-Head are based on the Watchers from Marvel Comics.
Trivia: Chris Parnell is only 13 years older than his on-screen daughter, Rebel Wilson.
Trivia: * "Quasi-Spoiler" * The mental or nutritional disorder wherein a person [or some animals, including dogs] eats/craves substances or objects that are not usually deemed to be "food" (or edible) is called "Pica." The word "Pica" is derived from ancient Latin and the bird "Magpie." Magpies have a reputation for eating almost anything/everything they can find, or have "indiscriminate tastes" and habits. Brecken, in this future world scenario, probably would not be diagnosed as having Pica. (00:03:28)
Trivia: The original script was very different, and much more downbeat. It would have focused on Randal spiraling into depression after Hurricane Sandy destroyed the Quick Stop and much of the town. A sort-of shantytown village is started in the parking lot of a movie theater by displaced locals, where Randall would make a new makeshift Quick Stop. Smith described it as a movie about dealing with grief. Kevin Smith ended up re-writing it into a more hopeful, upbeat film a few years later.
Trivia: This was the first Marvel project conceived of for Disney+.
