Directors Chris Miller and Phil Lord beat the odds when they made a movie about LEGO a worldwide hit. The film even included Superman and Green Lantern, played by Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill, the stars of their previous surprise hit, the rebooted 21 Jump Street . It wasn’t the only nod to the story of undercover cops, though. When Emmet’s apartment is first shown, a poster can be seen advertising the movie “Teen Copz,” an obvious reference to Jump Stre
Again, keep in mind that none of this means an Obi-Wan spinoff is, for sure, going to become a real thing. Nonetheless, until further notice, it’s definitely an idea that shouldn’t be dismissed as being too implausible – and it’s an idea that’s worthy of further discussion,
There have been countless examples of people finding sexual imagery hidden in the frames of Disney movies, and not every one of them is convincing. But one film that definitely has a sexy subliminal secret is 1977’s The Rescuers . The animated adventure about two mice on a quest to find a kidnapped girl has a not-so-innocent image inserted during a sequence where Bianca and Bernard are flying on the back of Orville the albatross. A topless woman was superimposed onto two of the windows flying past during the movie’s post-production. This discovery of the image in 1999 led to Disney issuing a recall of 3.4 million home release copies of The Rescuers – but thanks to the internet, it’s still easy to find the c
Indeed, Obi-Wan – more so than Boba Fett – is a member of the Star Wars universe whose life story has been pretty thoroughly examined and detailed in previously-released Star Wars projects. It’s for this reason that many dedicated Star Wars fans have already made it clear that they would rather a different person in a galaxy far, far away get to stand in the spotlight instead – by getting to being the star in a future Anthology film, that
Disney/Lucasfilm’s plan is to release a Star Wars spinoff during the years in between “Episodes”, for (at least) the film trilogy that begins with Force Awakens in 2015. The first of these spinoffs – some (if not all) of which are expected to be origin stories for certain characters – is being scripted by Gary Whitta ( The Book of Eli , After Earth ) and directed by Gareth Edwards ( Godzilla (2014) ), for a theatrical release in 20
Gore Verbinski’s remake of this Japanese horror film takes the idea that watching movies affects us, and stretches it to a terrifying extreme. The meta concept is reinforced when single frames from the haunted videotape flash up during other scenes in the movie. Again, not all copies of the film feature the same frames. But fans can all catch a flash of The Ring at the very start of the movie, where it meshes with the crescent moon in the DreamWorks logo. These hidden frames are worth re-watching the movie all on their own – just don’t answer the phone when you’re finis
Star Wars: Rogue One will be a war story about how the Rebel Alliance stole the first Death Star’s plans, while a Boba Fett movie would (presumably) examine the crime underworld of the Star Wars universe – meaning, an Obi-Wan spinoff could stand well apart from the other planned or rumored Anthology films (and help to insure that each one feels unique and explores different genr
Backstory: Typically in movies license plates are designed to blend into the scenery without a second thought. However, in the Matrix trilogy, many of the vehicle plates are shorthand Https://Movietriviafocus.com/ references to religious scriptures. At the beginning of Reloaded , Agent Smith’s license plate reads “IS5416,” which corresponds to Isaiah 54:16: ” Behold, I have created the smith, who blows the fire of coals, and produces a weapon for its purpose. I have also created the ravager to destroy. ” Similarly, during the highway chase sequence, Trinity’s Cadillac plate reads “DA203,” which corresponds to Daniel 2:03: ” He said to them, ‘I have had a dream that troubles me and I want to know what it means
… On the other hand, we’ve also long heard that Lawrence Kasdan – screenwriter of The Empire Strikes Back and co-writer on The Force Awakens – is the one penning the Boba Fett movie ; meaning, Edwards’ spinoff (as written by Whitta) could well revolve around the operation to steal the original Death Star’s plans, but it might not involve Jango Fett’s “son”/clone (or any bounty hunters for that matt
An Obi-Wan Kenobi film could take on various forms – such as, an adventure where Obi-Wan leads a team of warriors on an important mission (see the old rumor about Zack Snyder making a Seven Samurai-inspired Jedi movie ). That is, it might offer something new and fresh for both hardcore Star Wars buffs and more casual moviegoers al
However, in the case of Peter Jackson’s King Kong remake, the director included a tongue-in-cheek message for savvy moviegoers who actually took the time to do translation work. Just before reaching Skull Island, SS Venture captain Englehorn intercepts a coded message calling for the arrest of Carl Denham (Jack Black). Yet the audible code does not actually say anything about an arrest and instead reads: ” Show me the monkey! ” – a campy hidden message in honor of the film’s titular ape that will probably make readers think twice the next time they see morse code depicted on scr
