[CConn]

There was no way Alien 4 would've ever been good, though.

 

[DJ Kornphlake]

Yep. I had to see it for one of my film classes. Too bad Burton hasn't been big on German Expressionism use since the 90s.

Ah cool. It was just readded to Netflix streaming a month ago.

And the mutant was Christopher Meloni.

William Baldwin stars in Backdraft not Stephen Baldwin. I always had them confused.

I just noticed more of the characters in the first tracking shot in Trick 'r Treat.

 

[UnknownStuntman]

In 'Back to the Future' the Twin Pines Ranch was owned by Old Man Peabody. When Marty goes to 1955, we see Mr Peabody, his wife and two kids. The son has a comic book depicting space aliens. The kid's name, according to the credits? Sherman Peabody.

^^^ nice, from the Bullwinkle and rocky show right?

it's TV and not movies, but I just saw a season 1 episode of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, and the episode starred Lucy Liu!

 

[Jordacar]

Matt Dallas is not related to Josh Dallas. I'm crushed.

 

[Hotwire]

In Prometheus, when David is looking at his finger saying, "Big things have small beginnings," you can see the Weyland logo in his fingerprint.

 

[Mace Dolex]

And the mutant was Christopher Meloni.

He was also the KKK grand wizard in H&K Escape From Guantanamo Bay.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

The Godfather

Jack Woltz has an Academy Award on his nightstand.

Michael, Calo, and Fabrizio walk across that big building Vito went across as a boy hidden in that horse. The camera is placed in pretty much the same spot.

 

[Jordacar]

Not exactly movie stuff, but I just learned that the original "Star Trek" was the first show to cost over $100,000 per episode, and "TNG" was the first show to cost over a million per episode. Really puts things in perspective.

 

[craigdbfan]

That JGL was the kid from Angels In The Outfield.

 

[ttotheusher]

Made my sister watch the Shawshank Redemption for the first time the other day, and one thing I noticed that I hadn't seen before was in the last scene where Andy and Red talk, just after Andy has been let out of the hole, Red refers to Andy's dream of living in Zihuatanejo as a "s****y pipe dream", which is obviously a nod to what happens later on.

 

[TheOnlyOmega]

That the news reporter from Crank 2 played Jane's dad in Breaking Bad.

 

[Homer J. Fong]

That the news reporter from Crank 2 played Jane's dad in Breaking Bad.

John de Lancie; he was also Q on "Star Trek: The Next Generation."

 

[Dave McFly]

Depp and Cruz were both in Pirates 4 and Blow, I did not realize that till just the other day.

 

[NewYorkSpider]

That JGL was the kid from Angels In The Outfield.

I actually never knew that untill now.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

The crime boss who says he doesn't want drugs sold to children in The Godfather is not Victor Stracci. This bothered me for years because I could never figure out why he wasn't killed at the end.

 

[dark_b]

Walken plays Max Shreck in Batman Returns. the name of the actor who played Count Orlok in Nosferatu is Max Schreck. nice homage

 

[spider-neil]

The Halloween mask that Michael Myers wears is William Shatner/James T. Kirk.

 

[Wesley Dodds]

What the heck is Cillian Murphy doing in Tron Legacy? He turns up for like 10 seconds at the start of the movie playing a nameless, 'random guy' role and that's it...

Sequel-bait. He's the son of the villain from the first movie.

Ah, Gotcha! I've never seen the first one properly so I guess I missed that.
