Trivia: The army officers estimated that the Allosaurus had a territory measuring about the same area as that of wolves, or roughly the square miles of Rhode Island. Rhode Island is nicknamed "The Ocean State" [also, "Little Rhody"]. "The Island State" would not be an appropriate nickname because Rhode Island is not an island... but it does have four islands. As the smallest U.S. state, more than 220 Rhode Islands would fit into the second-largest state, Texas.
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: 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 an extra scene at the end after the credits roll with Amenza paying tribute saying the names of the fallen Dahomey warriors one by one.
Trivia: The teenagers had six-packs of "O'Doul's" beer (but the crease in the package makes it look like "O'Toul's"), which is a non-alcoholic beer/beveridge. Although considered to be alcohol-free (and legal for minors to drink), O'Doul's contains a small amount (0.4%) of alcohol. (00:30:40)
Trivia: After chasing the neighbor girl Nia from her hot cocoa stand, Karen said, "And your little dog, too" - equating Karen to the Wicked Witch in "The Wizard of Oz" who said the same to Dorothy regarding Toto. (00:02:15)
Trivia: Although the ages of the Cooley family members are not revealed, Mel Gibson ("Elvis") is 67-years-old (DOB: 1/03/1956), Nancy Tate ("Olivia") is 52 (DOB: 8/25/1970), and their movie daughter "Adria" (played by Romy Pointet - age/DOB not available) is supposedly 5. ["Typical" Hollywood movie family?].
Trivia: The voice of the Tin Can Man was provided by Butch Patrick. Butch Patrick played the role of Eddie Munster, the son of Lily and Herman in the 1964 TV show "The Munsters".
Trivia: Richard's New York MD license plate has the "Statue of Liberty" along the left side. MDs with the special plate usually (if not always?) have the "Universal Symbol of Access" between the letters "M" and "D", as well as "Physician" written along the bottom of the plate. [Possibly a "factual error."] The "Universal Symbol of Access" allows some otherwise unauthorized parking areas to be used and extends parking time. (00:34:58)
Trivia: Was pulled from TIFF after a single showing because director/co-writer/star Vera Drew got a warning letter from an "unnamed" massive media conglomerate. (Widely believed to be Warner Bros./Discovery.) Eventually the movie was able to be released legally because, as a parody, its content falls squarely under fair-use laws.
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: 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: Nicolas Cage originally didn't want to make the film, as he felt uncomfortable with the idea of playing himself in a movie. The director wrote him a very nice note, explaining why the movie was important to him and how they wanted to celebrate Cage's wild and varied career, which won Cage over.
Trivia: Nicole Kidman is only nine years older than her on-screen son Alexander Skarsgard.
Trivia: In France, when Mr. Carson and Lady Maude are in the hat shop, the clerk mistakenly refers to them as being married, which surprises and embarrasses both. This is a movie in-joke regarding actors Jim Carter (Mr. Carson) and Imelda Staunton (Lady Maude), who are married in real-life.
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: Spoiler! There is a mid-credits scene with Commander Burnside. He is complimenting his space shield that also zaps giant bugs.
Trivia: When Geppetto's cuckoo clocks first start ringing, the first one features Woody from Toy Story who was voiced by Tom Hanks who plays Geppetto in this film. The second one features Roger and Jessica Rabbit from Who Framed Roger Rabbit - directed by Robert Zemeckis who also directed this film.
