Question: What was the treasure? Because Casper says its just his baseball bat and glove, but then what does the note at the beginning mean that Carrigan and Dibbs find when the deed is thrown in the fire? Because it talks of treasure but its really only a baseball.
Answer: When Carrigan tosses the Whipstaff documents into the fireplace, one paper's hidden message appears on the back from the heat (if using lemon juice instead of ink, messages stay hidden and only appear when heated); it has a drawn map and handwritten "Buccaneers and buried gold, Whipstaff doth a treasure hold." Later, Casper tells Kat that he and his dad had great fun together playing pirates down in the lab, and Casper quotes the words from their hidden "pirate" message. So the handwritten note with map was actually part of their father/son beloved pirate-playing shared fun (note when the living Casper appears at Kat's party, he wears a piratey costume with a sword at his side). The pirate "treasure chest" contents were merely Casper's personal treasure: his glove and cherished autographed baseball, and it was kept in the lab's vault; even after Casper succumbed to pneumonia, Mr. McFadden kept it in the vault.
Answer: A machine that could bring dead people's ghosts back to life would be worth trillions of dollars. And that's why It was kept "secret" and hidden away from the rest of the world.
Question: When Alan has reached Jumanji, why were the bullet and rifle pulled into the game? They weren't from the game, but purchased by Van Pelt from a gun store.
Answer: The game is essentially "resetting reality" back to the point Alan was first sucked into the game. So it is undoing everything that has been done - including taking away the gun and bullets Van Pelt had purchased.
Answer: The gun and bullets may have been from the real world but they were Van Pelt's property. He purchased them at the gun store. Apparently the game pulls in Van Pelt and anything of his he was using to hunt Alan. It makes sense that the game would do this because Alan defeats Van Pelt by following the rules of the game. Having Van Pelt be able to simply purchase a gun in the real world and kill a player with it even after they've completed the game would be a huge cheat.
Question: Greenwall says that the warrior must stand on the tower for five days. Wouldn't he die of dehydration?
Answer: Not if somebody climbed up and gave him some water to drink.
Answer: As someone else said, somebody could give him water. The test might be more about staying in one place and denying himself the daily activities and pleasures of life - not having access to his usual amount of water and food.
Question: What did Cher mean when she said, "this is a bigger disaster than Malibu"? What happened to Malibu?
Answer: Malibu is a hazardous place to live. It's constantly threatened by wildfires, which burn out the underbrush. Then when it rains, there's nothing on the ground to keep the mud from sliding down the hills, so mudslides are a problem, too. She was probably referring to one of the many times that this has happened.
Question: What is A.J. doing when he burns Mark's CD? Why would he ruin his CD, if that's what he's doing?
Chosen answer: He is making sure the CD can't be played anymore because nobody really likes Mark's music.
I never understood that part because they were singing along to the song Mark chose to play.
Question: The credits and IMDb claim that clips from the movies The Premature Burial (1962) and Mutiny on the Bounty (1962) are used in the film. Where are these clips?
Answer: A clip from Mutiny on the Bounty is used in the ship scene. I believe it's on deck before Renfield and Dracula are seen. The premature burial is the scene when Lucy's coffin is being carried on the moors.
Question: Would Cadets Woliger and Fox have actually been able to attend a military academy, considering that Woliger has heart problems and Fox is deaf?
Answer: Madison is not a military academy. It is a boarding school and Major Payne has been put in charge of their JROTC program. It is, however unlikely that those cadets, or the blind cadet at the end of the film, would be admitted into a JROTC program. The Code of Federal Regulations states that the JROTC program is designed for "physically fit" students. Tiger is also much too young to be allowed to participate, you must be in at least the 7th grade to participate. Madison is apparently making exceptions to allow basically anyone that wants to participate and that would not be allowed in real life.
Question: I have looked all over the web for the wav of the sound Goofy makes whenever he is falling, which he does at least once in every cartoon he is in. It sounds like 'yah-ha-ha-hooey.' I have never found it, so can someone point me to where I might be able to download it?
Answer: Took about 1 minute to Google this: http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/7451/sounds.html.
Question: In the end credits, there are seven stuntmen listed, b ut I can only think of four. Can you please tell me what all of the stunts are?.
Answer: Reshooting certain scenes would most likely necessitate new stunt people, as the first one(s) would most likely be hard to get back.
Question: I've seen this movie a million times and I still can't figure out the whole "Peter having one testicle because another guy had a pencil in his back pocket because he was a lawyer while they were playing basketball" thing. I got that they were playing basketball but still, can someone please explain to me how Peter lost a testicle while playing a game? Thank you.
Answer: Peter was being boxed out by the other guy, so the other guy was putting his back against Peter's front. With a pencil sticking out of his back pocket, you can imagine how some damage might be done.
Question: What happens to the real Derek bond, his old friend? He is not seen at the party at the end or even seen again after the hostage.
Answer: Presumably he went back to his home and practice. Gary seemed to like Derek much more anyway.
Question: OK I'm gonna be dumb and ask, what on earth is Franck's nationality and accent?
Answer: Martin short once claimed in an interview that Franck is just a combination of several different nationalities that he combined for the character. Like Bronson Pinchot in Beverly Hills Cop, part of the humour is not knowing where he came from.
Question: When Kate, Luc, Charlie and Juliette are all on the beach, Kate introduces Luc to Charlie. Luc then says something in French (right after he says, "Sweetie-pie?") which isn't subtitled. Can anyone tell me what it is?
Answer: He says "enchanté" - French for "it's a pleasure to meet you".
Answer: "Maintenant je comprends tout." Now I understand everything.
Question: At the end of movie there is a 2 story building with a porch and a small boat or canoe next to it, Where is that building?
Answer: It was an abandoned boat house, a storage place for marine equipment. Oars, nets, fishing gear. Since it was winter, the hit man knew nobody would be there.
Question: Why is Gerry in high school at 11?
Answer: Could be he was smart and was advanced several grades. Could be a combined middle school/high school that's just called a high school.
Question: What happens to Annie and Trixie or even Lawanda? How come they didn't appear in this film?
Answer: It's never explained what happened to them or why they never appeared in this film.
Question: After Babe first tries to herd sheep on the farm, Rex talks to Fly and mentions that the two of them are ancestors of someone. Could this mean that he and Fly are related and have been inbred? When the puppies are for sale earlier in the movie, the sign for them says that Rex is a champion; it seems like a farmer would be careful not to inbreed a champion dog.
Answer: Baby face taps RR TOYS COME OUT. Telling the other toys to come out from hiding. Pixar stated this in their Toy Story character overview.
But why "RR"?
"RR" is shorthand for "Message Received." Babyface is telling Woody that he understands Woody's problem and then taps out to the other toys to come out.
