Question: Was any of the movie shot on film? IMDb has Arri and RED digital cameras listed, but there are couple scenes (especially early on) that seem to have noticeable graininess that looks much more like traditional film grain than the digital "noise" you sometimes get in modern movies.

Question: What phone was used by Nicolas Cage while in the car towards the end? (01:47:10 - 01:49:31)

Question: Right after ET's death scene we see the people in the suits taking some weird cone things out of the house. What was it they were taking out in the cones?

Emissary (1) - S1-E1

Question: Did Nana Visitor's hairstyle change from her first appearance in the episode to the next scene when they were going down the stairs?

Question: What song is playing during the opening credits?

Sunflower - S8-E3

Question: If head of MI5 gave Foyle the file on Strasser at the start of episode, why, when American officer comes to the office for first time, why does he say to Miss Pierce that he didn't know about Stasser?

Joey's Funny Valentine - S7-E16

Question: Maybe I'm missing something, but the whole situation with Roxy doesn't make sense to me. For one, if she found out that she insulted the Tanners with her comedy bit about them, why didn't she just come out and apologize to them? That would've been the most obvious thing to do. I understand Roxy is shy and that Joey cares about her a lot, but the way the rest of the episode played out (especially during the dinner scene towards the end) is just something I can't quite wrap my head around.

Question: At the end it shows Dick Best coming off the Enterprise with the rank of Lt. Commander when he started the battle with the rank of Lieutenant. Did he get a promotion during the battle?

Question: Was there a "winner" for the final race in London, or was it forfeited? As far as I could tell, the race was still going on when Mater took Lightning McQueen away to help figure out the lemons' plan involving him.

Question: Is the Spanish flag seen on the building in Huelva the accurate one used during Franco's regime or the modern one?

Question: How did they catch Nils Nelbrook in the hospital? They say he was in a car accident and Simon Pegg was driving the other car, but what happened?

Question: Why didn't the guards reveal that Diane was the Crimson Paw or that she aided in the bad guys escaping prison? A good majority were not knocked out when they were thrown in to the prison cells. Surely even if they didn't see her face, the bad guys exclaiming her name in shock as well as removing her mask would have seriously put her identity in jeopardy. (01:00:01 - 01:03:00)
