Every fan of Quentin Tarantino knows that the director likes to connect his films into one universe , with characters living in the same world, or some films existing as movies for those characters to see in a theater. But what about a movie that reveals it’s just a movie in its own story? That’s what some fans claim about Jackie Brown . When a character walks out of a movie theater to the sound of its credits score, the music is what’s expected of Tarantino. But viewers will eventually realize that it’s the same music that plays over the movie’s own end credits. A shared universe wasn’t enough: the director had to hint that Jackie Brown was already playing in theaters while the cast was still living through
The Star Wars series is filled with space battles and exploding space stations, but the movies usually show nothing but sparks and smoke to keep violence to a minimum. But one shot shows the model builders have a sense of humor. When the Millennium Falcon enters an asteroid field in Episode V, one pursuing TIE Fighter crashes directly into a space rock. But don’t miss the pilot sent ragdoll-ing out of the wreckage, visible for a split second before being broken into pie
The prequels tend to get a rough ride from fans, but what if we told you one of the saga’s greatest moments was hidden in the background of Revenge of the Sith ? Believe it. When Obi-wan is hunting down General Grievious, clone troopers are fighting battle droids all around him. For a split second, one clone trooper can be seen squaring off against a droid, dropping it with a stiff jab to the head, and a brutal body blow. Easy to miss or not, why this trooper isn’t worshipped as one of the franchise’s coolest heroes is beyond us – but now’s a good time to st
It doesn’t usually pay to look below the surface of a movie based on grown men getting hit in the face with inflatable balls, but this is one exception. When the team at Average Joe’s Gym goes up against the cocky, well-funded, testosterone-fuelled Purple Cobras, it’s a battle of David vs Goliath. But viewers might not realize that seeing the “Joes” vs. “Cobra” is one big nod to G.I. Joe and their greatest enemies. With that in mind, audiences should have realized that the Joes would always come out on
Long before Anna, Elsa, and Olaf became household names, the makers of Frozen had a party to plan. Being named Queen of Arrendale may have stressed Elsa out, but it also meant the gates of the castle would finally be opened to villagers and visiting guests. Two of which might be familiar to Disney fans: Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, https://Movietriviafocus.Com/ the stars of Disney’s Tangl

You don’t have to be a princess just to star in a Disney adventure, only willing to don a disguise to protect your family – and belt out a few musical numbers too. Mulan learned that for herself when she pretended to be a man to join China’s forces against the invading Huns in Disney’s retelling of the classic story. Its message must have struck a chord with the cast of Lilo and Stitch, since a poster of Mulan hangs on Lilo’s sister Nani’s wall, and the family even passes a restaurant called “Mulan Wok” when first adopting the trouble-making al

Marvel’s Avengers universe is based on fantastic figures, science, and otherworldly adventures, but they’re apparently even hard to believe for the everyday characters inside the films themselves. When Ant-Man villain Darren Cross references the old stories of a miniature superhero working in secret, he claims they’re nothing but “propaganda, Tales to Astonish.” He’s not wrong, either. Ant-Man’s unbelievable powers actually debuted in the comic “Tales to Astonish,” making this one of the most meta moments Marvel has ever featured, and a major statement about the hero’s entire story for the viewers who manage to catch
Star Trek Into Darkness was a somewhat polarizing film when it was released in 2013. It was the sequel to a very refreshing and inventive Star Trek reboot from 2009, so expectations were on an all-time high for the follow up. Unfortunately, director J.J. Abrams and screenwriters Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman, and Damon Lindelof just delivered the same thing from the reboot, only goofier and with more references to other Star Trek mov
Director Martin Scorsese wasn’t exactly subtle with the tension and terror of Cape Fear , the story of a convicted criminal who seeks revenge on the lawyer who put him there, terrorizing him and his family, particularly his teenage daughter. Beginning the movie with chilling music and a blood red close-up on the daughter’s eyes warns audiences that the story she’s about to recount is a violent and truly unsettling one, due in large part to Robert De Niro’s acclaimed performance as the film’s villain. The family survives in the end, with the lawyer successfully killing his former client – but the damage has been done. To remind viewers that Cape Fear is as much about the loss of innocence as it is about revenge or protecting your family, the film returns to the “spared” daughter, this time fading from innocent white to red – and keeping audiences from feeling too good about its happy end
