Trivia: A scene that was filmed, but not included in the final cut, was a fight between Sylvester Stallone and Jesse Ventura. This explains why Ventura disappears from the film after killing Dr. Cocteau.

Red Dead Redemption 2
Other mistake: One of the things that drives the game's main story is that the gang needs to acquire enough money through various heists in order to escape from the U.S. government and live in Tahiti. However, when exploring and doing side missions, Arthur can acquire tens of thousands of dollars by himself, which could easily pay for everyone to flee without having to rob banks or trains.

If This Be... M.O.D.O.K.! - S1-E1
Trivia: When M.O.D.O.K. and Austin are out on town, the places they visit make references to several other Marvel characters. The dragon that is serving them in the restaurant is Fin Fang Foom. The concert they are next shown to be attending is advertising Lila Cheney, who in the comics is a mutant who can teleport over interstellar distances. Lastly, the arcade belongs to Arcade, who is primarily an enemy of the X-Men. (00:10:27 - 00:10:58)

X-Men (1992)
Trivia: Despite its guitar-driven sound, the theme song for this show was actually written entirely on a keyboard using MIDI technology. Composer Ron Wasserman attributed this to having hardly any gear to work with, which only consisted of a nice mixer board that had EQ in it, and one compressor. He even admitted to pouring a Coke into the first console so that they would buy him a new one.

The Phoenix Saga (2): The Dark Shroud - S3-E4
Continuity mistake: When Xavier and Cyclops begin arguing in the hallway, the door and doorway to Jean's hospital room are visible over and behind Xavier's right shoulder, and a chart is a few feet to the right of the door. A few shots later when Cyclops is telling Xavier that he failed to warn everyone, the chart is still visible, but now the door is missing, with the wall now appearing to be longer. (00:06:40)

Friends (1994)
Question: There are a few episodes where Phoebe is talking with her twin sister Ursula, and one of them will hand something to the other person, and you can tell a stand-in is not being used for one of them because Lisa Kudrow's face is visible for both characters. How do they achieve this effect?

Chosen answer: The effect can be achieved in various ways. Split screen and image overlapping is one method. CGI can simulate body movements making it appear the characters are physically interacting, or a face can be superimposed over a body double. Lisa Kudrow's older sister, Helena, who looks almost exactly like her, was often used as her twin body double, mostly filmed from the back or the side and in scenes where one stood or walked in front of the other.
