Plot hole: Peter's sister has the strength to rip people apart with her bare hands, but somehow wasn't able to break down doors while pursuing Peter or Ms. Devine, or even break down the walls she was imprisoned behind (Ms. Devine broke apart one of those walls with a fireplace poker).

Trivia: A teacher at a Miami charter school showed this film to his 4th-grade class. He allowed them to select the film they wanted to watch, and they picked this, with nobody realising it was a horror film. Apparently, the movie played for over 20 minutes before the teacher shut it off, despite earlier protests from his students about its content.

Trivia: According to new reports, the real reason Matthew Vaughn left this film is because he found a large script featuring a scene in Africa with Storm ending a drought for thirsty villagers. The executives told him that was a fake script to entice Halle Berry into remaining in the film. Vaughn was disgusted with their duplicity and exited the project.

Trivia: This film nearly had a completely different story. Marvel originally wanted Kraven to be the main antagonist, but Sony refused, as they wanted to establish Kraven in his own upcoming solo film before allowing him to appear in an MCU film.

Trivia: This series was originally announced as "Agatha: House of Harkness" in 2021. The subtitle was then changed to "Coven of Chaos" in July 2022, before being changed again to "Darkhold Diaries" in September 2023. It was then officially confirmed to be titled "Agatha All Along" in May 2024. The previous titles were all probably announced as jokes to lead up to the actual title, given that "Agatha All Along" was the name of the song used to reveal Agatha being the main antagonist of WandaVision.

Growing Pains - S2-E1

Continuity mistake: After Rogue absorbs Blob's powers to stop him from collapsing the bleachers, the shot changes, and we see Blob falling to his knees, and Rogue standing directly behind him. The shot changes again, and Rogue is suddenly crouched down on the rubble with Kitty standing behind her, and Blob nowhere to be seen.

Growing Pains - S2-E1

Stupidity: When the new principal is addressing the student body, Avalanche tries to impress Kitty by causing a couple of small earthquakes, one of which causes the scoreboard to crash to the floor below. The principal laughs off the incident and continues to address everyone instead of either evacuating the area or having everyone take cover.

Trivia: When Eric is asking the teachers to cut him some slack, according to Will Friedle, the cadence with which he says the line is meant to be a Jerry Seinfeld impression.

Trivia: After 19 years, this became the first film in the franchise to receive mostly positive reviews from critics. The original film was previously the best-reviewed entry in the franchise according to Rotten Tomatoes, but only received mixed reviews.

Deliberate mistake: Per his autopsy in Saw IV, John Kramer was 52 years old at the time of his death, and this film takes place between Saw and Saw II. Tobin Bell was around 80 years old at the time of making this film, and thus looks far too old to convincingly play someone in their early 50s. Amanda Young also looks a lot older in this film compared to other entries in the franchise that are chronologically later.
