Trivia: If you rewire the Wall of Light at the front of the Dunwall Tower, and then go to the Broadcast Station and expose the Lord Regent's plan, he'll be arrested. The guards will try to march him out of the Tower - and will send him through the rewired Wall, which will electrocute him, so you'll get an "Assassinated Lord Regent!" notification without actually doing anything.

Hellboy (2004)
Trivia: The soundtrack for this film includes a very unusual instrument: a precision-played theremin. The theremin was traditionally used to create spooky sound effects, but it this film it's actually used for playing melody, which requires exceptional playing skill. It's most heard in the scene where the portal closes and Rasputin dies.

Mr. Bean (1989)
Trivia: The Latin lyrics used at the beginning are "Ecce homo qui est farba, qui est farba, qui est farba", which mean "Behold the man who is a bean". At the end, it's identical, but "Ecce" is changed to "Vale"; "Farewell, man who is a bean." Before and after the advert break (in the UK version), the lyrics are "Fin de partie primae" and "Pars secunda" - "End of Part One" and "Part Two".

Mr. Bean (1989)
Trivia: The series authors have stated that the opening sequence is not meant to imply that Mr. Bean is an alien; rather, he's a random ordinary guy "thrown into the spotlight". The first UK screenings of the first episodes did not have this opening sequence, but it was added to them when they were repeated and re-released.

Battle Royale (2000)
Trivia: The Japanese DVD features outtakes from the film. One of these shows that in one scene where a cooking pot is thrown at a girl, the pot actually did hit the actress and hurt her (although not badly). The shot where this happened does appear in the movie, but any sign of her having been hurt was edited out.

Trivia: The "fighting is wrong" moral ending exists only in the American version. In the original Japanese, the ending was that Mewtwo accepted it could be a proper Pokemen in spite of having been brought to life by humans, because Ash (Satoshi in the original Japanese) is still a proper human in spite of just having been brought (back) to life by the other pokemon.
