Trivia: Reportedly, Mal was originally written with "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" alum Nicholas Brendon in mind, but it quickly became clear that there simply wouldn't be enough time for him to star in both series simultaneously.

Trivia: Reportedly, different endings were shot, including one where Hoffman died.

Trivia: An early concept for the film involved members of the mafia being placed into traps by Detective Hoffman. This idea was dropped in favour of a more timely story centering on insurance and healthcare.

Trivia: At one point Valerian mentions "I don't speak French." This is a bit of an inside joke, as the original "Valerian and Laureline" comic books are from France.

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.

Trivia: The unrated edition of the film includes a post-credits sequence - as of 2020, this is the only "Saw" film to have such a scene.

Trivia: At one point in time, the film was going to be converted into 3D in post-production, but the idea was dropped due to time constraints.

TedStixon

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.

Trivia: Tom Cruise was reportedly offered the role of Rick O'Connell, but turned it down. He would later go on to star in the 2017 reboot eighteen years later.

Trivia: Director Stephen Sommers intended to use the old 1930's "Universal Studios" logo as a throwback to the original film, but the idea was vetoed by Universal. Sommers also reportedly didn't much like the current studio logo at the time and was annoyed at having to use it.

Trivia: "The Incredible Hulk" is one of only two MCU films to not have any mid or post-credits scenes. The other film is "Avengers: Endgame."

TedStixon

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.

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. However, Pitt and Jolie were dissatisfied with the screenplay and dropped out. Eventually, all connections to that film were dropped and the movie was retooled to be a stand-alone film.

TedStixon

Trivia: David Krumholtz was supposed to be in the film as one of Seth's friends, but he dropped out when he got offered the lead in a Woody Allen film. Unfortunately, that film ended up falling apart during pre-production and was never made.

TedStixon

Trivia: Like "The 40 Year Old Virgin" before it, "Knocked Up" is one of the somewhat rare films to shoot over 1 million feet of film due to all the improvising and extra takes.
