Trivia: Frank Grillo originally turned down the opportunity to cameo in this film as Crossbones, partly because he was upset that the character was killed off in Captain America: Civil War. His son convinced him to change his mind.

Deliberate mistake: Leroy Hanlon has a large scar on his left cheek, but the older version of the character, as seen in It (2017), has no scar.

The Black Spot - S1-E7

Question: When the bar patrons compel the lynch mob to lower their weapons, wouldn't the patrons' military training have also led them to instruct the mob to lay down their guns as well?

The Black Spot - S1-E7

Trivia: When the lynch mob enters The Black Spot looking for Hank Grogan, the masked Clint Bowers says, "Give us what we want, and we go away." This is similar to "Give me what I want, and I'll go away," the repeated demand of Andre Linoge, the main antagonist of Storm of the Century, which is another Stephen King adaptation. (00:14:47)

The Rightside Up - S5-E8

Trivia: The series finale had a theatrical release on New Year's in 2026. Due to the residual clauses of the actors' contracts, fans wishing to see the finale in a movie theatre could not purchase tickets for it. Rather, they would have to purchase a concessions voucher, which would then essentially allow them to see the finale on the big screen for free.

The Crawl - S5-E1

Revealing mistake: When Steve and Jonathan are climbing the radio tower, just before they reach the top, there is a wide shot, and if you look at Steve, you can see the far background around his body is swirling, revealing the shot to have been filmed in front of a green screen. (00:20:32)

Phaneron ★

Trivia: A Canadian filmmaker named Mark Twitchell was so obsessed with this series that he set up a kill room in his garage, complete with plastic sheeting, in an attempt to kill people. He would pose as a woman on the dating website Plenty of Fish and lure men to the garage. His first would-be victim got away and testified he was too embarrassed to report the incident to the police. A second man was lured over and ended up being killed and dismembered. Twitchell is currently serving a life sentence for the murder.

Trivia: This series ends with Madame Web taking Spider-Man to find the missing Mary Jane. Had the show been renewed for another season, it would have seen Spider-Man finding Mary Jane in Victorian England. Mary Jane is eventually shown to be back in her own timeline and with Peter Parker in season one of X-Men '97.

Trivia: An unaired segment that was filmed for the first episode saw Johnny Knoxville dress up in an orange prison jumpsuit and then go into a hardware store and ask people to saw off his handcuffs. The store ended up being evacuated and the cops were called. The cops even got out of their vehicle before parking it properly, and it ended up crashing into a telephone pole. Knoxville was held at gunpoint and warned not to move or be shot. MTV was banned from filming in West Hollywood for 10 years as a result.

Season 1 generally

Trivia: Some episode intros feature a shot of Gambit cradling Rogue on the basketball court, and she proceeds to cover his mouth with her hand and then kiss her hand. This is recreated from a panel in X-Men #4, though in that panel, Rogue punched Gambit in the mouth instead of giving him a simulated kiss.

Phaneron ★

Trivia: Danny Elfman has described this as the most difficult film in his career to score, particularly as nobody outside of Tim Burton wanted him on the project, as he was known for scoring only comedy films beforehand.

Phaneron ★

Trivia: "Weird Al" Yankovic recorded a song for his 1985 album, "Dare to Be Stupid," called "Yoda" - a parody of "Lola" by the Kinks - which gives an abridged summary of the plot of this film from Luke's perspective. The song's lyrics make reference to Mark Hamill playing the role of Luke Skywalker until he is old and gray, which ended up becoming true 30 years after the album was released.

Phaneron ★

Question: The name of this movie, as pronounced by its English characters, sounds phonetically similar to "F*ck 'em all." I get that this is a joke for American audiences, but is this movie allowed to be promoted in the same manner in the UK, or do their censorship laws require its name in trailers and television spots to be pronounced more appropriately?

Phaneron ★

Trivia: Although their characters are meant to be similar in age, in real life, Woody Harrelson is nearly 15 years older than Naomie Harris.

Phaneron ★

Trivia: This film originally had a subplot featuring Johnny Knoxville as a deputy, but it was removed following test screenings. Knoxville can be seen in the film's early trailer.
