Help?
Remember this test post I did a while ago? For A Filmography Of CKR But With Useful Information For A Fangirl? Because china_shop asked for it?
I've decided by now that I am going to make a comm for this, because it's more fun that way. And less work for me. And now I need (among other things) a name.
So, poll.
Poll Comm name
And here, have some random movie trivia I found at IMDB:
Memento: Christopher Nolan's first choice for the role of Leonard was Alec Baldwin. (/c\)
Wilby Wonderful: Paul Gross' two children Hannah and Jack Gross appear in the background of the movie. (Just in case anybody didn't know that yet.)
Whole New Thing: The film was written in two weeks then filmed in 15 days.
Slap Shot 2: This movie was inspired by Fox's glowing puck, which attempted to add glitz and glamour to the game at the expense of the game itself. (Well, that explains a lot.)
Picture Claire: During location filming on a Toronto street, a woman was arrested for causing a disturbance after the filmmakers called for silence and she refused to stop blowing a whistle. (Huh. That means Bruce didn't lie in Claire's Hat. In that case.)
Masterminds: When Patrick Stewart's character makes his first appearance, he asks Principal Maloney to call him by his first name, "Raif," to which she immediately replies "Fine." This is a reference to the actor Ralph Fiennes, whose name is pronounced "Raif Fine." (Er. I doubt that? I really do.)
Last Night: The "toughs" whom Patrick and Sandra stop to ask for a ride are played by producer Daniel Iron and Canadian filmmakers Bruce McDonald (bearded) and Francois Girard (driving). (Huh. Didn't know that.)
Don McKellar, Sarah Polley and David Cronenberg were all involved in the film eXistenZ. (...er.)
The part of Sandra was specifically written for Sandra Oh.
Hard Core Logo: Director Bruce McDonald's earlier film, Highway 61, is referenced by the Band-Aid visible on Billy Talent's finger. Characters in Highway 61 sold their souls to Satan for something they wanted, signing a contract in blood, after which Satan gave them a Band-Aid for their finger. This implies that Billy sold his soul for his chance at fame with Jenifur. (Hmmmm.)
The Butterfly Effect: Ashton Kutcher did extensive research on psychology, mental disorders, and chaos theory to prepare for his role in this film. (Um. WHY?)
Blade: Trinity: One of the television commercials for the film was recalled after one day of airing because it accidentally credited Jessica Biel as Jessica Alba. (AHAHAHA. *loves* Uh, sorry, I just really don't like her.)
Battlestar Galactica (mini): Grace Park originally auditioned for both Dualla and Starbuck. (O.O)
Due South (Perfect Strangers): Dief wasn't faking the bandage on his paw. In an interview Rick Parker, Draco's trainer, mentions that he had the dog on the Canadian Wranglers' grounds when Draco decided to swipe some food from a black jaguar's cage. The jaguar didn't take kindly to this so it grabbed Draco's paw with one of its claws. Fortunately for Draco it only required 26 stitches which all healed nicely. (Aww.)
Due South (Dead Guy Running): The drunk in the wedding dress in the episode "Dead Guy Running" was played by Paul Gross' brother-in-law, Donny Burns.
