Understandably, some viewers were confused when the new Force Awakens characters asked Han about the old Galactic Civil War and the existence of the Force. But in a way, that’s because these elements have become so ingrained in our popular culture that it’s almost inconceivable to come across someone who has never heard the term “Jedi Knight” or knows who Darth Vader is. In the Star Wars universe, knowledge of such things really isn’t all that commonplace. It’s easy to see how this could all be new, especially to someone living alone in the des
To populate the behind-the-scenes world of arcade games in Wreck-It Ralph , animators included characters from classic video games. Bowser, Pac-Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, Q*bert, and Frogger are among those that make an appearance. But, in one wide shot of Game Central Station, two characters unrelated to video games can be seen: Vladimir, one of the thugs in the Snuggly Duckling Pub, and Maximus, the proud palace horse, from Tangled , are walking in opposite directions in the station. There’s also a dinosaur that very closely resembles Tiny the T-Rex from Meet the Robinsons , filling the scene with references to other Disney films amid all the game charact
George Lucas may have dreamed up one incredible space opera all by himself, but it was Ralph McQuarrie’s concept paintings which made the director’s vision a reality, and convinced Fox that it was worth investing in. McQuarrie’s role wasn’t lost on Lucas either: when it came time to film The Empire Strikes Back , he made sure to give the painter a cameo, strutting through Hoth’s Echo Base – with his sketchpad in hand, obviou
The very subtitle of Episode VII suggests that the Force has been dormant for some time, and though there are still Force users out there, they’re not as prominent as they once were. Luke may or movie News|https://movietriviafocus.com/ may not have started a new Jedi Order, but even if he did, the odds that scavengers on Jakku know about it are slim. As for Rey inquiring about the stories about what happened (meaning Episodes IV-VI )? Think of it as a young basketball fan asking an older basketball fan if the things he’s heard about Michael Jordan are true. Nobody’s doubting the Rebels beat the Empire, they just want to know how factual the fantastical tales they heard
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
Given the talent behind the scenes of Anchorman , including producer Judd Apatow, writer/director Adam McKay, and writer/star Will Farell, it shouldn’t come as a complete surprise that one of the funniest gags (in an already highly quotable film) is also one that most American moviegoers will miss entir
The tradition may have started during World War II, but these days, hanging a pair of fuzzy dice from a car’s rearview mirror doesn’t need to be explained. Apparently, even Han Solo and Chewbacca can use the added luck, including a pair of gold dice hanging in the cockpit of the Millenium Falcon. They’re hard to spot, but the die-hard fans know where to look. In fact, The Force Awakens was already filming by the time a crew member realized the dice were missing, buying a gold plated pair on eBay. Talk about commitment to continu
When Pixar was made an official branch of Walt Disney Animation, the tradition of Easter Eggs and cameos was just one thing both studios could agree on – even if it made no sense to the story being told. It’s strange enough that among the wooden carvings being sold by the Witch in Brave is the same Pizza Planet delivery truck included in every Pixar film. But the image of Sully, the furry star of the wildly successful Monsters, Inc. shows that even witches need to worry about what’s hiding in their clo
For those not versed in Harry Potter mythology, we’ll just say that to bring down Lord Voldemort, the three Deathly Hallows were sort of an important combination. It wasn’t until the second last book that audiences learned that a cloak, stone, and Elder Wand held the key to victory, but the idea was teased ahead of time. As in, two full movies ahead of time. In one of the franchise’s best easter eggs, Dumbledore tells Harry that he’s been searching for such a detail that held the secret to defeating Voldemort – but the answer is literally right in front of him, in the form of a 3D version of the Deathly Hallows symbols stored in his own off
