Trivia: At first Nathan Fillion insisted on doing all his own stunts. However, he discovered his stunt double wasn't being paid since he wasn't technically working, with Fillion doing all the stunts himself. Fillion felt bad for having taken his work, so he began using his stunt double from then on.

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (2017)
Trivia: In this film, at the start of the Big Market scene, a character named Hawker is told he has a "nice hat" by Laureline. In the 1997 film "The Fifth Element," a mugger is told he has a "very nice hat" by Korben Dallas. Both characters are played by Mathieu Kassovitz. Just a cute little inside joke you might not have noticed the first time.

Godzilla (1998)
Trivia: The film was meant to be the start of a trilogy. The second film would have involved the surviving "baby Godzilla" growing up into a full-sized beast and battling an insect-like creature in Australia with an army of adolescent Godzillas that it had birthed. It also would have had an emotional attachment to Matthew Broderick, who was expected to return. The third movie would have built on the second film, and would have possibly included new versions of other Japanese "Godzilla" universe monsters. However, due to the mixed-to-negative reception of this installment and budgetary concerns, the sequels were ultimately scrapped.

Community (2009)
Trivia: According to Dan Harmon, a lot of Chevy Chase's dialogue in the series was based on things he actually said behind-the-scenes. He'd say something odd or nonsensical in conversation, Harmon and the writers would jot it down, and then they'd add it to the scripts during rewrites.

Keeping Up with the Joneses (2016)
Trivia: "Keeping Up with the Joneses" was originally meant to be a sequel to the film "Mr. And Mrs. Smith," with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie both intended to return.
