Motherless Brooklyn (2019)
Trivia: The final major theatrical film to feature Bruce Willis before his retirement from acting in 2022 due to Frontotemporal dementia. (While he starred in several films after, they were primarily direct-to-video and streaming films with very limited theatrical releases).

That '80s Show (2002)
Trivia: Star Glenn Howerton partially credited "That '80s Show" as having helped get his popular sitcom "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" made. Despite this show failing and being cancelled after only one season, he was able to use some of the money me made from it to buy the camcorder that was used to the shoot the original proof of concept "pilot" that was used to pitch "Always Sunny" to networks. Without "That '80s Show," there's a very high chance "Always Sunny" wouldn't exist.

Men in Black II (2002)
Trivia: There is a persistent rumor that the reason Agent L (the coroner from the first film who became an agent) was written out of the sequel was because the entire cast and crew hated actress Linda Fiorentino, who had a rather notorious reputation for being a bit of a diva. Tommy Lee Jones was even rumored to say he'd refuse to return if she did. To her credit, Fiorentino has said she would have returned, but couldn't do to scheduling conflicts. Although it's anyone's guess which is really true.

X-Men 3 (2006)
Question: The awkward delivery Kitty makes when she says "Who's hiding... d**khead?!" to Juggernaut always struck me as really strange. Is it just poor delivery of a generic insult? Or is she trying to make a (bad) one-liner about the fact his helmet is maybe, kinda-sorta vaguely shaped like a man's glans? The weird pause and emphasis on the word "d**k" in "d**khead" made me think it was the latter, but I'm not sure.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)
Trivia: Sonic not being able to swim is a callback to the original video-games, where Sonic can't swim. When he's underwater, he can only movie like normal (albeit slower), and will drown after a brief period. In order to avoid drowning, he has to either surface or make contact with large air-bubbles that he can breathe in. This is also referenced in the movie when Sonic sucks in a giant air-bubble in the temple ruins while he's underwater to avoid drowning.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)
Trivia: At one point, Knuckles hits Sonic and Sonic drops and loses his bag of rings. This is a subtle reference to the video-games. In the video-games, Sonic collects rings which act as a sort-of surrogate health-meter. When he gets hit, he loses all his rings, and has to recollect them. (If he gets hit again while having no rings, he dies).

Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)
Trivia: Sonic makes a brief joke about the feud between the actors Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson, who both appeared in the "Fast and Furious" movie franchise. This film is from the same producers as that franchise.

26th Apr 2022
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)
Trivia: Idris Elba has stated that he pitched the idea of giving Knuckles a high, squeaky voice to humorously contrast with his strength and fierce persona. Thankfully, Elba and the director decided that this idea wouldn't work, and would probably just annoy fans, so they instead settled on a more tough, regal voice.

The Batman (2022)
Trivia: Is the longest Batman movie ever released in theaters, and the second-longest theatrical superhero film of all time behind "Avengers: Endgame." (Which was only about six minutes longer that this movie).
22nd Apr 2022
The Batman (2022)
Trivia: Colin Farrell reportedly went out and grabbed a coffee during a break in filming while he was in his prosthetic Penguin makeup. The prosthetic makeup was so convincing in-person that literally nobody realised it was him.
15th Apr 2022
Sonic the Hedgehog 2 (2022)
Trivia: Tails is voiced by Colleen O'Shaughnessey. This is actually notable, as she had previously voiced the character in several video-games and the animated series "Sonic Boom!" She's the only voice actor from the video-games to return to voice her character in the movie series. The rest of the characters are voiced by celebrities.

Jay and Silent Bob Reboot (2018)
Trivia: Holden's daughter is played by Jay actor Jason Mewes' daughter.

Dogma (1999)
Trivia: Kevin Smith reportedly did not get along at all with star Linda Fiorentino, who he found difficult and unpleasant. (In Smith's defense, Fiorentino reportedly had a reputation for being a diva behind-the-scenes on many of her films, and her career came to an abrupt halt in the 2000's due to her reputation and her ties to a major criminal case.) Smith has since confessed that he wished he had cast Janeane Garofalo, who has a small cameo role at the beginning of the film, in the lead part.

Answer: She was scared, going into battle for the first time and going up against a very powerful mutant. It was the best one-liner she could think of at that moment. She purposely said it to agitate him, to put him in such a blinding rage, he wouldn't notice his powers were gone because of "LEECH."
