Trivia: Originally, the war-games scene was meant to be a total bloodbath, with numerous students being shot to ribbons. But it was eventually cut down to just Shelton being killed. Series creator Don Mancini has said he believes it was changed for two reasons - first due to budgetary concerns since it'd require so many squibs and so much coordination, and second for "political correctness" reasons, since seeing dozens of kids being shot would be a little too distasteful, even for a Chucky movie.

Revealing mistake: After Whitehurst is blown up by the grenade and Andy gets to him you can see Whitehurst blinking his eyes even though he is dead. (01:10:45)
Chucky: Don't fuck with the Chuck.
Question: Why didn't Alex Vincent reprise his role as Andy?
Answer: To add to the other answer, the writers and producers felt that after two movies they had gone as far with child Andy as they possibly could have. They felt it would be too redundant to have a third film with Andy as a kid being pursued by Chucky. So they set this film years later when Andy was a teenager.

Answer: The film makers wanted to make Andy older in the film so he could have a love interest and be in military school. At the time Alex was only 9, but they wanted Andy to be 16. So they recast the part.
