The galaxy far, far, away is getting a lot bigger in the coming years, which means plenty of writers, directors and actors each getting a chance to throw in nods to the original films. But even though the Star Wars saga has been pored over for decades, there are still a TON of details, secrets and easter eggs we’re willing to bet fans have never cau
Most fans of The Wachowski’s game-changing sci-fi series know that The Matrix ‘s plot forms a perfect circle: the hotel and room 303 where the movie begins is also the same place where Neo becomes “The One.” But fans probably missed an even bigger example. The first movie ended with a serious phone call, as Neo told the Machines that he planned on freeing human
As shocking as this may be to read: not everyone who will see The Force Awakens is overtly familiar with the Star Wars mythos. Whether they’re adults who never caught on, or children whose first real exposure to the franchise will be Episode VII , they’ll need someone in the movie to act as their guide and ask the questions they’re wondering about. Abrams would be unwise to just assume that everyone watching knows the story up to this point. This is very similar to how Luke was portrayed in the original film, as he – like everyone watching – had no idea what The Force was or how expansive the galactic war really was. He was that fish out of water character that was a conduit for the audience and allowed them to understand what was happening throughout the f
George Lucas knew that the Millennium Falcon was as iconic as anything else in his original trilogy, so when it came time to flesh out the world of Naboo in Attack of the Clones , he didn’t disappoint. Fans can spot not one, but three Corellian YT-1300 light freighters in Naboo’s spaceport. It’s apparently a more popular model than you might think, but in the following movie, fans can catch the real Falcon landing on Coruscant, years before Han Solo would ever get behind the wh
On October 19, Lucasfilm finally unveiled the third and final trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens to much fanfare, setting the stage for record breaking ticket sales and an increase in the already fervent anticipation. With less than two months to go until the film’s release (at the time of this writing), many moviegoers are optimistic that J.J. Abrams’ film will be a triumphant return to form for the saga, giving viewers another rousing space adventure in the vein of the original tril
The story of two stoners in search of burgers made John Cho and Kal Penn overnight stars, but Cho previously turned heads in the Movie Curiosities|Https://Movietriviafocus.Com/ Better Luck Tomorrow , director Justin Lin’s acclaimed story of over-achieving Asian American teens. Lin has confirmed the movie is a prequel story for Fast & Furious hero Han, but the same can’t be said for Cho’s character. Someone on the set of Harold & Kumar was clearly a fan, and found a clever way of working the title into the script (coming from the mouth of an “extreme” je
The religious themes and imagery of Ridley Scott’s sort-of-prequel to Alien begin in the opening scene, with an alien Engineer sacrificing himself to seed Earth with life – an idea seen in Greek, Roman and Aztec religions. But it’s not the most obvious message. When the cast of Prometheus uncovers an ancient map to a distant moon, LV-223, the film’s Christian heroine sees it as an invitation to meet her creator in person. But instead of answers, the crew finds violent creatures and an Engineer determined to destroy all human life on Ea
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
