The Forgiven picture

Trivia: Although Driss apparently stepped out in front of David's car and got killed (in the desert), it is ironic that "Moroccan drivers don't give way to pedestrians" [according to Mowgli-Adventures.com, "Driving in Morocco", Nov. 5, 2021]. (00:07:44)

Dashcam picture

Trivia: [Anecdotal Evidence Included] Most of the first 16 minutes were shot on Annie's iPhone, which was very unsteady and so difficult to watch that the viewer may develop dizziness, eye pain, and an irresistible impulse to stop watching. The "dialogue" may be painful to one's ears.

Jurassic Shark 2: Aquapocalypse picture

Trivia: "Megalodon" means "large tooth." Without a complete fossil/skeleton, scientists used the size of teeth to estimate the shark's actual length/size (which may not be accurate) and concluded it was the largest shark known to have existed. At an estimated 15-18 meters, the Megalodon was about three times the length of a Great White shark.

Mad God picture

Trivia: This feature-length stop-motion project has been in some form of production for thirty years. Phil Tippet started work on it after making "RoboCop 2," but nearly abandoned it after CGI became popular, fearful that people wouldn't accept it. He was encouraged to continue, and slowly pieced it together before finally premiering it in 2021.

Lena and Snowball picture

Trivia: The movie hardly looks as though it was set in Fitzgerald, Georgia. Fitzgerald's population is over 50% Black, about 40% of the residents live in poverty, its crime rate is high, and the median income is relatively low. Newcomers such as the Bickers may not have a "Southern drawl", but - surprisingly - neither did any of the natives in the movie. The Fitzgerald area isn't very large - less than ten square miles. Perhaps an attempt to avoid stereotypes at the expense of misrepresentation of the population?

Trivia: In one if the opening scenes, a warrior at the camp fire sings a few lines of the medieval ballad 'La Blanche Biche': "Je suis fille le jour, et la nuit blanche biche.
