Trivia: "The Adventures of Pluto Nash" is one of the most notorious box-office bombs in history, losing the studio nearly $100 million.

Trivia: The film was originally written in the mid-1980's, but was passed around back and forth until it finally went into production nearly 15 years later.

Continuity mistake: When Wilson meets Rick and Evie at the museum, pay attention when Rick delivers the line about giving them a heads up next time Wilson takes Alex on one of "his fieldtrips." In the first shot, Wilson's arms at down at his side. In the next shot, suddenly they are up and he's patting his chest while saying "Yes, of course." The shots are back-to-back, so there's no time for him to have lifted his arms between edits.

Continuity mistake: When Mad Dog is flying the O'Connell's and Lin in the plane, Mad Dog remarks that he can't guarantee they'll live, and it cuts to a close-up of Rick sarcastically saying "Great!" Watch Alex... he goes from facing his left to facing his right between edits.

Continuity mistake: When Lin is explaining what needs to happen at the club, pay attention when she says the lines "Once the diamond is placed at the top, it will point the way to Shangri-La. Yang still has the diamond..." There are a series of cuts throughout these lines, and Lin goes from facing forward towards Alex to facing sideways towards Rick between two of the edits.

Trivia: !MASSIVE SPOILERS FOR "SCREAM (2022)! Towards the end of the movie, it is revealed that Tara's friend Amber is one of the two killers. If you look at the credits, the movie was co-written by famed screenwriter James Vanderbilt... whose wife also happens to be named "Amber." This is either an incredibly bizarre coincidence, or Vanderbilt decided to include a truly odd tribute to his wife in the film by naming a psychotic killer after her... either way, it's pretty darned funny.

Trivia: !SPOILERS! Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield gave a lot of notes on their characters, which the writers gratefully accepted. For example, Maguire didn't want too much revealed about what's been happening with his Peter, aside from the fact that he was still with Mary Jane. (Presumably to leave his adventures up to the fans' imaginations.) And Garfield wanted his Peter to be a bit more ferocious/emotional compared to his first two films to show how Gwen Stacey's death changed him.

I saw a movie or TV show back in the early 90's when I was a kid. I only remember one scene because it scared the crap out of me. I believe in the scene, an older man (probably 60's?) was fed feet-first into a shredding machine or large wood-chipper and killed. It was outside. The camera was inside it looking up. And I think there was a woman behind him who either pushed him in, or was trying to get him out. He was awake, shouting and struggling. Ring anyone's bell? (And it was not "Fargo.").

Trivia: The shoot happened to coincide with the shoot for season four of "Party of Five," which also starred Neve Campbell. Because she had to film both simultaneously, and both had day and night shoots, she was working seven days a week, and often didn't have time to sleep... she'd go from one shoot right to the next, then hopefully be able to sleep after that.

Trivia: In one scene, Randy randomly switches to speaking with an English accent for about 30 seconds. Randy's actor Jamie Kennedy has since admitted that he has no clue why he did it... he just did it during one of the takes as a random goof, and was shocked that they kept it in the finished film.

TedStixon

Trivia: The script was a major hurdle during production. Because the studio wanted to protect the film's twist ending/killer reveal, most cast members weren't given the ending of the script until the day they filmed the twist ending/killer reveal scene. Part of the script was also leaked online, and thus those pages had to be rewritten on the fly so people wouldn't be able to guess the plot.

Trivia: While a majority of the music is composed by Marco Beltrami, Dewey's musical theme is actually a piece from the 1996 action movie "Broken Arrow." It was used as a temp-track while editing and was intended to be replaced... but everyone working on the film fell in love with it since it seemed to perfectly sum up Dewey. The studio ended up licensing the music for use. Famed composer Danny Elfman also assisted by composing a piece of music for the scene where Sidney is in a play.

TedStixon

Trivia: The only "Scream" movie not to be scored by Marco Beltrami, who did the music for all four of the previous films. However, new composer Brian Tyler did use some pieces and snippets of Beltrami's themes in a few key places throughout the score.

Trivia: When Richie is watching YouTube, the video review he watches talking about "Stab 8" features a cameo from James A. Janisse and his wife Chelsea Rebecca. They are popular YouTubers who run various horror-themed shows on their channel "Dead Meat." As of 2022, they have over 5 million subscribers.

Trivia: MINOR SPOILER ALERT FOR "SCREAM 4"/"SCREAM (2022)! When Richie is watching videos on YouTube, there is a thumbnail with an interview about a "Woodsboro Survivor," next to a picture of Kirby Reed from "Scream 4." It has been confirmed that this canonically means Kirby survived the fourth film, which has been a popular fan-theory, since she was stabbed and last seen in a pool of blood... but was shown to still just barely be breathing. (Her fate was left purposely ambiguous in "Scream 4.").

TedStixon

Trivia: Part of the reason Mason Gooding was cast in the film is that he was a massive fan of the original "Scream," and even wrote an essay about it in college. He let the producers read the essay while he was auditioning. The producers were very impressed by his passion for the franchise and his audition, and he was immediately hired.

Continuity mistake: When Blade gets on the elevator in the beginning, pay attention to the legs of the woman in the elevator. When she gets on, she is wearing black stockings. When she gets off, she is wearing cream-colored stockings. The rest of her clothes that are visible are the same (same shoes, skirt, etc.), as is the wardrobe of the man who gets on and off with her, so it's meant to be the same woman. (There's also no indication that the elevator made any stops on the way up).

TedStixon

Trivia: The filmmakers wanted to make a puppet that would be the perfect "opposition" to the evil Nazis in the film. They came up with the idea for a cowboy puppet, since he could represent a popular American archetype, and of course the Americans opposed the Nazis in the war. They then combined the cowboy with an old idea for a six-armed ninja puppet, resulting in the popular puppet "Six Shooter."

Trivia: According to the Coen Brothers, every part was written for the actor cast, except for Tilda Swinton's part.

Trivia: Stan Lee's cameo in this TV movie is actually his first official on-screen Marvel cameo. (Not counting two previous Marvel cartoons to which he served as a narrator.) He would eventually go on to have cameos in over 50 future Marvel film and TV shows, both live-action and animated, either appearing in-person, supplying his voice and likeness, or being seen in photographs. (Plus one animated DC movie.) His final cameo was in 2019's "Avengers: Endgame" - exactly 30 years after this TV movie.
