Movie Stuff You Only Now Just Realized - Part 2

That Brad Pitt fires his gun 7 times near the end of the film Se7ven

You know the weird thing about Bane? In the comics, he always has the full facemask like Spidey or Deadpool. In animation (and the Arkham games), his mask has an open mouth. And in both movies, he has a gasmask.

 

[Dave McFly]

in batman and robin he had the full mask only in TDKR did he have the 'gas mask'

 

[DawnWarrior]

^In B&R he's got a mask with a Darth Vader-style grill for a mouth. That's a gasmask.

Stacy Keach Jr. has a prominent facial scar, which he usually covers up with a mustache. In The Bourne Legacy it's completely visible.

 

[Bruce Banner]

Joel Kinnaman (the new Robocop) was in the American version of Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, for like a second.

 

[Dave McFly]

in Iron Man 2 when stark and rhodey are fighting while wearing the suits. when they crash through the ceiling in front of pepper and natalee, natalee strikes a brief defensive stance.

 

[Wesley Dodds]

Johnny Depp was originally offered the Ferris Bueller role.

 

[CConn]

^In B&R he's got a mask with a Darth Vader-style grill for a mouth. That's a gasmask.

It wasn't a gas mask. It was merely a metal plate with slats in it to allow for breathing.

There's quite obviously no hardware inside to to insulate breathing from anything.

In Batman '89...

When Vickie starts looking at Batman's face too closely in the Batmobile, he turns on a console light pointed at her eyes so she'll turn away.

The entirety of the movie takes place in New Jersey in 1947. This is shown through newspaper articles in the film that state "Mayor Hague retires after 30 years." Mayor Frank Hague was the mayor of Jersey City from 1917-1947.

 

[Blitzkrieg Bop]

Those are some fancy TV's for 1947.

 

[DawnWarrior]

As far as the Burton/Schumacer movies go, Catwoman and Poison Ivy have pretty much the same damn origin. Both start off wearing glasses, all timid and bumbling and nerdy. Both are murdered by their bosses after stumbling on their evil plans. Both resurrect as sultry psycho super-villains. Then they both team up with the movie's other male super-villain to go after Batman.

 

[Wesley Dodds]

When it comes down to it though, pretty much all Batman villains find a weird kind of self-empowerment through their own neuroses. In the movies and the books...

AND they both kill said evil boss with a big ugly kiss on the mouth.

When TinTin wakes up in the row boat with Haddock after the latter had set the fire... Haddock has been heating his arse... which is smoking heavily

I respectfully disagree.
People are watching color tv...which didnt occur until the 50's. The first color broadcast was in 54...Networks switched to color in 1965.
The cars Joker's men drove were 1978 Dodge Monacos painted green and purple.
The warrants that Eckard hands out for Jack Napier list the years as 1989.
The CIA files that Joker gets his hands on list the chemicals as being discontinued in 1977.
Bruce Wayne mentions Ted Bundy (From Batman Returns).
Gotham is celebrating its 200th anniversary. As contrast NYC celebrated it's 200th anniversary in 1988.

I think the confusion comes from the fact they wanted to make this movie appear to have elements from all time periods...Police dress old fashioned and carry old fashioned weapons...yet for the reasons I posted it takes place in the 80's.

Some of the newspapers actually have 1940s dates as well.

http://gothamalleys.blogspot.com/2011/11/when-does-batman-take-place.html Here's an article outlining the large number 40s references and the time setting inconsistencies. Ultimately, they argue that it takes place in the 40s with 80s elements, not the 80s with 40s elements.

 

[Dave McFly]

Hawkeye is in the Thor movie, I cannot believe I forgot that even played by Jeremy too.

 

[redhawk23]

Yeah it was cut in after Renner was cast, which is super obvious since he interacts with basically nothing else that is going on on screen. Its always bugged me.

 

[gohei_]

The one thing that bugged me about that scene, and this is just speculating on my part, but I thought that the bow and arrow was always his main weapon, but he thinks about taking the rifle for a second before grabbing the bow. I think it would have seemed better if the camera just zoomed past the rifle and the picked up the bow right away.
Minor nitpick.

Jim careys riddler was the same as well

Exactly.

though I'd say Jim Carrey was the sultriest of all.
also, watching Cabin in the woods right now, always wondered how the zombie got on the ramlber, then I noticed a specific shot when they all crowd onto it, they close the door, and you see a big smear of blood on the door, meaning that he was already there. Never caught that.

I still think that cameo is weaksauce. It's so forced and adds nothing to the movie whatsoever.

Fully agree with that....never made sense with the low numbers at the Shield base that we'd only see Renner once...

 

[DyeLorean]

It was a nice easter egg at the time, when the movie came out. It might not be a very strong cameo, but it got the job done.

In fact, we should be glad that the Marvel guys had/have so many things planned in advance that they can make this little easter eggs/cameos. Not every big franchise can do that.
