Most movie audiences head to the theater to see a story exactly as its told, without looking too closely at the plots, characters, or lines of dialogue. But for the diehard fans always searching for added meaning, some twists, names, or confusing quotes can make even a classic movie twice as much fun to wa
To be clear, movies on our list are more than simple easter eggs (such as the Egyptian etching of R2-D2 and C-3PO in Raiders of the Lost Ark ), set/costume designs that might not have been an actual “message” to the audience (like the The Bride’s “F*** You” sneaker soles in Kill Bill, Vol. 1 ), or Illuminati/thematic abstractions about the “true meaning” behind a particular film (i.e. Harry Potter is a platform for anti-family subliminal messaging). For game Reviews|Https://Movietriviafocus.com/ our purposes, we’re focusing on frames, text, and audio that is literally hidden in each mo
As a result, a Pook track, “Masked Ball,” plays during the satanic ritual, and includes a backwards Orthodox Romanian liturgy – which, in its original form, read: ” And God told to his apprentices, I gave you a command to pray to the Lord for the mercy, life, peace, health, salvation, the search, the leave, and the forgiveness of the sins of God’s children. The ones that pray, they have mercy and they take good care of this holy plac
With the billions of dollars being spent on blockbuster films, it’s hard to watch an epic action, fantasy, or science fiction movie just once. But even with repeat viewings, some awesome or unbelievable details always seem to slip by viewers’ e
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
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
In 1986, Steve Jobs purchased the Computer Graphics Division from George Lucas’s Lucasfilm and established the independent company we now know to be Pixar. In honor of the man who also founded Apple, Pixar has included references to the tech company or Jobs himself in a number of films. Most notably, the titular robotic hero of Wall-E makes the recognizable Mac startup chime when he’s done charging, and Apple products like computers and iPods are shown throughout Toy Story 3 . Finally, after passing away in 2011, the end credits of Brave featured a dedication to Jobs in memory of his contribution to Pixar. That last one may not necessarily be hidden, but it’s worth mention
Though most of its action may be focused on a single cathedral, that doesn’t stop The Hunchback of Notre Dame from squeezing in some Disney cameos, with the opening scene alone featuring a vendor selling Aladdin’s magic carpet, and Beauty and the Beast’s Belle out for a morning stroll. The Lion King ‘s resident jokester Pumbaa may seem an odd fit for Paris, France, but his cameo in the film’s climax is even better: proudly standing guard as a stone gargo
It may be unexpected, but apply the Bible to the story, and some answers are possible. The moon LV-223 is likely a reference to Leviticus 22:3, a warning from God that “…if any of your descendants is unclean, and yet comes near these sacred offerings…they shall perish before the Lord.” To make the twist on Christianity even clearer, Scott had planned to explain that an Engineer sent to save mankind 2,000 years ago was crucified instead, but decided that was a little too on the n
Tony Stark found out the hard way that even friends can’t be trusted, when his business partner Obadiah Stane revealed he was funding terrorists (and building his own suit of armor). But Iron Man should have known he was up to no good long before. When Tony finds Stane playing some piano in his Malibu mansion, it’s not a random bit of music, but a sample of Antonio Salieri’s “Piano Concerto in C.” Music buffs, or those who saw the movie Amadeus will get the hint, since Salieri was long rumored to have sabotaged and killed Mozart. The composers’ rivalry wasn’t anywhere close to Stark and Stane’s, but the hint was there all al
