Trivia: This game offers 16 levels with different 2-character groupings. There are seven levels with Homer and Bart (eight if you count Game Over for the Wii and PSP versions), three with Bart and Lisa, two with Marge and Lisa, one with Homer and Lisa and one with Homer and Marge. However, there are no levels in the game that feature a 2-character grouping between Marge and Bart. The closest the game ever gets to this is the 4-character grouping Game Over (but only for the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions).

Tenet (2020)
Trivia: When the Protagonist and Neil exit the shipping container and begin running past the wreckage of the plane to get to the turnstile inside the Freeport, the ambulance that they steal later in the scene after going through the turnstile can be seen among the emergency vehicles that they run past. It is definitely the same ambulance shown on both occasions as it has the number "02-06" on top and has the same number plate "ZXI04712." The Protagonist, wearing the same armor, can also be seen sitting in the driver seat. It is not something that the camera focuses on, but it can be noticed in the background of shot. (01:40:52)

Lolita (1962)
Trivia: When Humbert first sees Quilty in the mansion, he asks him if he is Quilty, to which Quilty replies with "No, I'm Spartacus. Have you come to free the slaves or something?" This is a reference to the scene from the movie Spartacus, where the slaves who have been recaptured by the Romans all announce that they are Spartacus to try and protect Spartacus when he tries to announce who he is. This is also serves as an in-joke as it was Stanley Kubrick's previous movie, which he made before doing Lolita. (00:03:36)
