M3gan picture

Trivia: M3gan's scenes were done with an actual person wearing a mask (with some CGI being used to animate the eyes and face.)

Fall picture

Trivia: For the film, a real radio tower was built, albeit significantly shorter. The film was shot on a tall mountain, to give the illusion that the tower was much taller. A blue screen was placed below it. The two main female characters did their own stunts.

White Elephant picture

Trivia: There are numerous interpretations of "white elephant", such as something that is: junk (worthless); no longer wanted by the owner but may be valuable to others; no longer wanted by the owner but difficult to dispose of; too expensive to maintain and therefore a burden (more trouble than it is worth). What is too expensive to maintain or difficult to dispose of will, obviously, depend on the owner's resources (e.g, mansion, shopping mall, broken hot tub, inoperable classic car, piano).

Hellraiser picture

Trivia: The first film in the franchise to feature a female "Pinhead," as portrayed by actress Jamie Clayton, a trans-woman. Despite some minor backlash online, original Pinhead actor Doug Bradley has spoken out in support of Clayton, noting that the franchise has always been transgressive and unique, and that he loved her performance on the show "Sense8." It should also be noted that the Cenobites in the original book were mostly androgenous, though "Pinhead" was said to have a feminine voice.

Where the Crawdads Sing picture

Trivia: Narrating in 1969, Kya said, "How birds sing mostly at dawn because the cool, moist air of morning carries their songs and their meaning much farther." This is no longer the primary view. Some scientific research found their subject sparrows' songs were louder (or just as loud) at noon than during the so-called "Morning Chorus." It appears the "Morning Chorus" might just sound louder because there are fewer other sounds at that time of the morning to drown them out (i.e, it is quieter). (00:37:15)

Pursuit picture

Trivia: Mike asked the Sheriff, "What flavor of ketchup?" and the Sheriff replied, "Heinz 57." Heinz 57 is not a flavor of ketchup and, contrary to popular belief, it did not reflect the number of varieties of condiments Heinz had for sale when the company started using the logo - which is what it actually is, a logo. There is an account of how the logo came to be. The Brand Director for Heinz reported that the 57 actually stands for his (5) and his wife's (7) "lucky" numbers. (00:44:55)

The Ant Farm picture

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)
