The prequels tend to get a rough ride from fans, but what if we told you one of the saga’s greatest moments was hidden in the background of Revenge of the Sith ? Believe it. When Obi-wan is hunting down General Grievious, clone troopers are fighting battle droids all around him. For a split second, one clone trooper can be seen squaring off against a droid, dropping it with a stiff jab to the head, and a brutal body blow. Easy to miss or not, why this trooper isn’t worshipped as one of the franchise’s coolest heroes is beyond us – but now’s a good time to st
We at least know when production is set to begin on Star Trek 3 . On Location Vacations reports that the film’s start date is April 15th, 2015, and that things will kick off at Vancouver Film Studios. Previously there have been claims that part of the shoot will take place in Seoul, South Korea, and that may still be true for some of the on-location work. When it comes to studio space, however, it looks like Vancouver won the raf
Every fan of Disney and Pixar knows to keep an eye out for the code “A113,” the room number that the studio’s top animators all studied in when attending the California Institute of the Arts. But it doesn’t stop at animated movies. When Brad Bird graduated from directing movies like The Incredibles and Ratatouille to Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol , he made sure to give a nod to his roots. Watch closely, and you’ll spot the code on a trick ring used by IMF agents to inject a sleeping drug into their unsuspecting tar
The tradition may have started during World War II, but these days, hanging a pair of fuzzy dice from a car’s rearview mirror doesn’t need to be explained. Apparently, even Han Solo and Chewbacca can use the added luck, including a pair of gold dice hanging in the cockpit of the Millenium Falcon. They’re hard to spot, but the die-hard fans know where to look. In fact, The Force Awakens was already filming by the time a crew member realized the dice were missing, buying a gold plated pair on eBay. Talk about commitment to continu
Before Chris Hemsworth was famous as the Marvel hero Thor, he splashed onto the scene playing Captain Kirk’s father George in Star Trek . The 2009 reboot saw George killed in battle aboard the USS Kelvin, but his legacy, and that of the ship, lived on. In the sequel, fans were probably too busy trying to make sense of the bomb plot and blood transfusions to notice that the scene of the disaster was the Kelvin Memorial Archive. Named for Kirk’s ship, it means the destruction of the Kelvin set the plots of both films in motion – a subtle nod that only the diehard fans might have cau
If the report is accurate, the addition of three new key female characters could do a lot to assuage the criticisms that were levied against Star Trek Into Darkness for having an overwhelmingly male cast – a situation not helped by the awkward fanservice-y misfire of having Carol Marcus strip down to her underwear and just sort of stand there while Captain Kirk and the camera gawped at
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
Long before Anna, Elsa, and Olaf became household names, the makers of Frozen had a party to plan. Being named Queen of Arrendale may have stressed Elsa out, but it also meant the gates of the castle would finally be opened to villagers and visiting guests. Two of which might be familiar to Disney fans: Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, the stars of Disney’s Tangl
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
Film Divider ‘s sources also indicate that the new villain will be a male character and that the studio is looking for a Bryan Cranston-esque actor to play him. In fact, Cranston himself has apparently ” had words ” about taking the role, but what those words were and which direction they took remains a mystery for now. If Cranston does get the role then hopefully he’ll get a bit more screen time than he was given in Godzil
