Trivia: 1. It is an American war film directed by Dan Bradley and written by Jeremy Passmore and Carl Ellsworth, based on the 1984 film of the same name. The film stars Chris Hemsworth, Josh Peck, Josh Hutcherson, Adrianne Palicki, Isabel Lucas, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan. The film centers on a group of young people who defend their hometown from a North Korean invasion. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer announced its intention to remake Red Dawn in May 2008 and subsequently hired Bradley and Ellsworth. The principal characters were cast the following year and the film went into production in September 2009 in Mount Clemens, Michigan. Originally scheduled to be released on November 24, 2010, the film was shelved due to MGM's financial troubles. While in post-production, the invading army was changed from Chinese to North Korean in order to maintain access to China's box office. FilmDistrict bought the U.S. distribution rights in September 2011 and the film was released in the United States on November 21, 2012. 2. Principal photography began September 2009 in Mount Clemens, Michigan. 3. MGM changed the villains in its Red Dawn remake from Chinese to North Korean in order to maintain access to China's lucrative box office. The changes reportedly cost less than $1 million and involve changing an opening sequence summarizing the story's fictional backdrop (dropping the original storyline of Chinese "repossession" after the US defaults on loans for a North Korean invasion), re-editing two scenes, and using digital technology to change Chinese symbols and dialogue to Korean. The film's producer Trip Vinson stated: "We were initially very reluctant to make any changes, but after careful consideration we constructed a way to make a scarier, smarter and more dangerous Red Dawn that we believe improves the movie." 4. Writing credits (WGA): Carl Ellsworth and Jeremy Passmore (screenplay); Kevin Reynolds (1984 screenplay) and John Milius (1984 screenplay) Kevin Reynolds (story). 5. Chris Hemsworth and Isabel Lucas were both in the Australian soap opera "Home and Away" and dated in real life. 6. The invading army in the original 1984 movie was the Soviet Union, which no longer exists, and Cuba. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) was chosen as the enemy in this updated version. The invading army was originally Chinese. It was changed to North Korean in post-production to maintain access to China's box office. 6. The film was shot and completed in 2009, and originally scheduled for release on November 24, 2010. It was shelved for almost 2 years due to MGM's financial troubles. 7. When the group is talking about things they miss, one person says "Call of Duty Modern Warfare". One stage of Modern Warfare 2 is called "Wolverines", taken from the original movie, in which a foreign Army invades America. Quotes: 1. Tanner: "You've made a difference. Hell, you *are* the difference." 2. Matt Eckert: "... when you're fighting in your own backyard, when you're fighting for your family, it all hurts a little less, and makes a little more sense. Because for them, this is just a place. But for us, this is our home."

Trivia: It is an American crime thriller film directed by Rob Cohen and starring Tyler Perry as the titular character and Matthew Fox as the villain Picasso. The adapted screenplay was written by Marc Moss and Kerry Williamson. This is the third film appearance of the character Alex Cross, the main character in a series of novels by James Patterson. Cross was previously portrayed by Morgan Freeman in Kiss the Girls (1997) and Along Came a Spider (2001). In 2010, Idris Elba was hired to play Cross but he was replaced by Perry. Filming took place in 2011. The film was released on October 19, 2012 in the United States and Canada.
Toward the end of 2010, QED International purchased rights and the initial screenplay by Williamson and Patterson.[4] By January 2011, Tyler Perry had replaced Elba in the starring role, and Cohen was hired as director.[6] QED hired Marc Moss, who worked on the previous Alex Cross films, to refine the screenplay for Perry and Cohen.[4] With a production budget of $35million,[1] filming began on August 8, 2011 in Cleveland, Ohio and lasted until September 16, 2011. Filming locations in northeast Ohio served as a backdrop to Detroit, Michigan, where the character works for the Detroit Police Department. After Ohio, filming also took place in Detroit itself for two weeks.[7]
Fox developed an extremely muscular physique for his role as Picasso and lost most of his body fat.[8]
The cast and Rob Cohen all stated in interviews that Perry and Fox kept their distance while not filming. Perry later stated that he didn't want to socialize with Fox because he wanted the tension between Cross and Picasso to be real. In separate interviews, Perry, Fox, and Cohen stated the Perry accidentally injured Fox while filming the catwalk fight scene. Perry accidentally punched Fox in the head. Perry stated Fox began to fall and he grabbed Fox and held him up. Cohen stated that Perry kept apologizing to Fox after the incident, but Fox kept telling him everything was fine, it was an accident and there's no reason to be sorry.
Idris Elba had originally been considered to take over as Alex Cross from Morgan Freeman. Idris had previously starred in Tyler Perry's film Daddy's Little Girls.

The screenplay was originally based on the James Patterson novel CROSS. For marketing purposes, the film title was changed to that of another Patterson novel, "I, Alex Cross". The screenplay, however, is a very loose adaptation, based on CROSS; similarities between book and screenplay are few.

However their last collaboration The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor also has some additional music composed by John Debney, who went on to score Alex Cross for Cohen.

According to the novel, it was not Sullivan but his friend and partner Jimmy "Hats" Galati who killed Alex Cross' wife Maria. Near the end of the novel, John Sampson (Cross' best friend and partner) reveals that years ago, a couple of months after Maria's death, he and detective Rakeem Powell received information that Jimmy was the murderer. Since they did not have concrete evidence to prove Jimmy's guilt, they searched for him several weeks, and finally found and killed him. Sampson could not bring himself to tell that to Cross back then, because he knew that Cross would be unable to deal with that.
When Detective Monica Ashe is first giving details about Fan Yau Lee to Detectives Thomas Kane and Alex Cross just after Fan Yau Lee's murder she says that Fan Yau Lee received an MBA from a university in Shanghai and was then awarded a "Rhodes Scholarship". Rhodes Scholarships are awarded to deserving individuals from fourteen specified geographic constituencies. Mostly, these geographic constituencies are, present or former commonwealth countries of the United Kingdom. China, the country where the city of Shanghai is located, though is NOT one of them.

Trivia: It is an English-language Spanish disaster drama directed by Juan Antonio Bayona and written by Sergio G. Sánchez. It is based on María Belón's and her family's experience of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. The cast includes Naomi Watts, Ewan McGregor and Tom Holland, among others. The film received positive reviews from critics for its direction and its acting, especially for Watts who was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Actress, for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Drama, and a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Leading Role.
The film was a co-production of Spanish film companies Apaches Entertainment and Telecinco Cinema, and employed much of the same crew from The Orphanage, including the director, writer, production manager, cinematographer, composer, and editor.[5] Principal photography began 23 August 2010, in Alicante, Spain, and continued in October in Thailand.[6][7]
Director Juan Antonio Bayona decided not to specify the nationalities of the main characters in order to create a universal film in which nationalities were irrelevant to the plot.[8][9][10][11]
The tsunami was recreated with a mixture of digital effects and real water surges using miniatures that were destroyed by a huge wave created in a water tank in Spain. Bayona committed to working with real water, rather than a computer generated wave, because he wanted the story to be authentic. This meant actors Naomi Watts and Tom Holland spent five weeks filming physically and psychologically demanding scenes in a massive water tank.[12] 16-year-old Holland later described it as a "scary environment ...You can imagine how tiring and brutal that was."
Eric Kohn of IndieWire gave the film a "B-" grade and stated that the film "suffers from the greater problem of emphasizing a feel-good plot within the context of mass destruction."[25]
Criticism of the film, however, has also focused on the concept of whitewashing, a term that now has also come to refer to the entertainment industry's attempt at making ethnic characters more appealing to the white, money-spending masses by making ethnic characters less exotic and more "white".[26] The movie focuses on a white family on vacation who get separated for a little while during the tsunami but eventually get to return to their intact homes in the west. Thais, however, are hardly present in the film, except when they offer a helping hand to the white family. Though the tsunami killed over 200,000 and severely affected the lives of roughly 2 million people in multiple Asian nations, the movie has been criticized for its focus on the white experience while entirely marginalizing Asians and minimizing the reality that Asians continued (and continue) to live with the damage brought by the tsunami to their homes and livelihoods.
Response from victims: Simon Jenkins, a British survivor from Portsmouth wrote to The Guardian, stating the film is "beautifully accurate". This was in response ---to critics commenting that the movie is "overdramatic" and "whitewashed". He says of the comments, "As I must, I've never been the sort of person to revisit and analyze events of the past, but some of these articles frustrated me. Had this film been purely about the tale of a western middle-class family's 'ruined' holiday then I would have agreed. For me, it was the exact opposite. Rather than concentrating on the 'privileged white visitors', the film portrayed the profound sense of community and unity that I experienced in Thailand, with this family at the centre of it. Both for my (then) 16-year-old self and the Belón family, it was the Thai people who waded through the settled water after the first wave had struck to help individuals and families... The Thai people had just lost everything – homes, businesses, families – yet their instinct was to help the tourists."
At the Toronto Film Festival in 2012, Naomi Watts, Ewan McGregor and young cast got to meet their real life counterparts - the family that survived the actual tsunami and on which this movie is based.

The crew filmed partially on location at the actual resort, since rebuilt, where the Belon family was vacationing when the tsunami hit. For the tsunami destruction scenes, a scaled model of the resort was used.
Quotes: 1. Maria: Lucas, look at this place. They're so busy in here. You get to go and do something. Go help people. You're good at it.
2. Henry: "But you know, you know, the most scary bit for me?" Thomas: "When the water hit?" Henry: "No. After that, when I came up, I was on my own. That was the scariest part. And when I saw the two of you clinging to the tree, I didn't feel so scared anymore. I knew I wasn't on my own. You see?"

Trivia: It is an American outlaw biker film directed by László Benedek and produced by Stanley Kramer. It is famed for Marlon Brando's iconic portrayal of the gang leader Johnny Strabler.
The Wild One was based on a short story, The Cyclists' Raid by Frank Rooney, in the January 1951 issue of Harper's Magazine. The story was later published in book form as part of The Best American Short Stories 1952. The story took a cue from an actual biker street party on the Fourth of July weekend in 1947 in Hollister, California that was elaborately trumped up in the July 21, 1947 issue of Life Magazine, and dubbed the Hollister riot, with staged photographs of wild motorcycle outlaw revelers. The Hollister event is now celebrated annually. In the film, the setting is the fictional Wrightsville, California.
In the United Kingdom, the film was banned by the British Board of Film Censors for fourteen years. It finally got an 'X' certificate in November 1967,[3] and was first seen by the UK public at the 59 Club in Paddington, London in 1968.[4]
According to the book, Triumph Motorcycle In America, Triumph motorcycle's then-importers, Johnson Motors, objected to the prominent use of Triumph motorcycles in the film. However, later, Gil Stratton Jr, who played "Mouse" in the film, advertised Triumph motorcycles in the 1960s when he was a famous TV sports announcer (ironic given his antics mocking this activity at the film's opening). Moreover, the current Triumph factory now uses images from the film to advertise their motorcycles.
Brando's portrayal of Johnny has become an iconic image. His character wears long sideburns, a Perfecto-style motorcycle jacket and a tilted cap; he rides a 1950 Triumph Thunderbird 6T. Brando's haircut inspired a craze for sideburns, followed by James Dean and Elvis Presley, among others.[5] Brando's image from the film is one of dozens of celebrities on The Beatles' Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover. Presley also used Johnny's image as a model for his role in Jailhouse Rock.
James Dean bought a Triumph TR5 Trophy motorcycle to mimic Brando's own Triumph Thunderbird 6T motorcycle that he used in the film.[5]
Brando's image remains potent today. In the mid-1990s, Yamaha used lookalikes of Mary Murphy's and Marlon Brando's characters to advertise their cruiser range of motorcycles. In the 2008 film Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Shia LaBeouf's character, Mutt Williams, first appears in the same outfit as Johnny Strabler, right down to the tilted cap. For 2010, Triumph motorcycles introduced a range of clothing and promotional items inspired by Brando's image from The Wild One.
The rock group Black Rebel Motorcycle Club got its name from the name of Brando's gang, although in the film, the gang is referred to as "Black Rebels Motorcycle Club". One story maintains that The Beatles took their name from the other motorcycle club led by Lee Marvin, the Beetles, as referred to in The Beatles Anthology (though as aforementioned, the film was banned in Britain until 1967).
Quotes: 1. Johnny: "What are you someone that makes sandwiches or something?" 2. Mildred: "Hey Johnny, what are you rebelling against?" Johnny: "Whadda you got?"

Sheriff Singer: I don't get you. I don't get your act at all, and I don't think you do either. I don't think you know what you're trying to do or how to go about it. I think you're stupid. Real stupid and real lucky. Last night you scraped by, just barely; but a man's dead on account of something you let get started even though you didn't start it.

Charlie Thomas: I've seen hoodlums like this before. If you don't get tough with them the minute they get out of line you're sunk. You're the cop, aren't you? If you can't boot these jerks out there's plenty of us can, even if we have to bust a few heads.

Kathie Bleeker: Well, what d'ya do? I mean, do you just ride around or do you go on some sort of a picnic or something?
Johnny: A picnic? Man, you are too square. I'm... I... I'll have to straighten you out. Now, listen, you don't go any one special place. That's cornball style. You just go.

Johnny: [opening narration] It begins here for me on this road. How the whole mess happened I don't know, but I know it couldn't happen again in a million years. Maybe I could of stopped it early, but once the trouble was on its way, I was just goin' with it. Mostly I remember the girl. I can't explain it - a sad chick like that, but somethin' changed in me. She got to me, but that's later anyway. This is where it begins for me right on this road.

Trivia: 1. It is a British epic romantic musical drama film produced by Working Title Films and distributed by Universal Pictures. The film is based on the musical of the same name by Alain Boublil and Claude-Michel Schönberg which is in turn based on the 1862 French novel by Victor Hugo. The film is directed by Tom Hooper, director of The King's Speech, scripted by William Nicholson, Boublil, Schönberg and Herbert Kretzmer, and stars an ensemble cast led by Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, Anne Hathaway, and Amanda Seyfried.
The film tells the story of Jean Valjean, an ex-convict who eventually becomes mayor of a town in France and owner of a factory in that town. He is always alert to the risk of being captured again by police inspector Javert, who is ruthless in hunting down law-breakers. One of his factory workers, Fantine, blames him for her being cast into a life of prostitution. When she dies, he feels responsible and agrees to take care of her illegitimate daughter, Cosette — though he must first escape Javert. Later, when Cosette is grown, they are swept up in the political turmoil in France, which culminates in the June Rebellion of France.
Development of Les Misérables based on the stage musical began in the late 1980s. After the musical's 25th Anniversary concert in October 2010, producer Cameron Mackintosh, producer of Miss Saigon and The Phantom of the Opera, announced that the film resumed development. Hooper and Nicholson were approached in March 2011 and the main characters were cast in 2011. Principal photography commenced in March 2012,[9] and took place in various English locations, including Greenwich, London, Chatham, Winchester, and Portsmouth; as well as in Gourdon, France.
Les Misérables premiered in London on 5 December 2012, and was released on 25 December 2012 in the United States, on 26 December 2012 in Australia, and on 11 January 2013 in the United Kingdom. The film received divided, but generally favourable[11] reviews, with many critics praising the cast, with Jackman, Hathaway, Redmayne, and Barks being the most often singled out for praise. The film won the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy for Jackman and the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Motion Picture for Hathaway. It has also won four BAFTA Awards, including the Best Actress in a Supporting Role (Hathaway). It received eight Academy Award nominations including Best Picture (the first musical nominated since 2002's winner Chicago) and Best Actor for Jackman, and won three, for Best Sound Mixing, Best Makeup and Hairstyling and Best Supporting Actress for Hathaway.
Recording the actors' singing live as they're acting may not be a first for this film, but the scope, and especially the manner in which it's being done, is: The actors wore ear pieces which fed the sound of a live piano being played off-stage, to keep their singing in key. The main novelty here is, there's no count-in or predetermined tempo and the piano is following the pacing of the actor, not the other way around - a first for a filmed musical. Orchestral music was added post-production.
The scene where Fantine is assaulted by a rejected customer is based on an actual incident from Victor Hugo's life that resulted in Fantine's creation: he was on his way to his editor's office when he encountered a young man harassing a prostitute. When she rejected his advances, he shoved a handful of snow down her dress and shoved her to the ground. When she defended herself with her fists, he immediately called the police to arrest his "assailant". Hugo was a minor celebrity at the time and spoke up on the woman's behalf when the police arrived and was able to have her set free. Hugo said he was horrified by the unfairness of the woman's situation and began to imagine that she might have children depending on her, and thus Fantine appeared in his mind.
Coincidentally, Anne Hathaway sang with Hugh Jackman at the Academy Awards (twice). The second time, Hathaway was hosting and sang 'On My Own' to Jackman because Jackman refused to sing with her. Later, Jackman was cast in this movie and he suggested Hathaway as Fantine. She was later cast.
Anne Hathaway actually cut her hair very short for this movie, in a scene where her character sells her hair.
Despite prominent billing, Anne Hathaway only has 15 minutes of screentime and her character dies 43 minutes in to the film.
Hugh Jackman lost considerable weight and grew a real scraggly beard for scenes of Valjean as a prisoner, though mercifully they were shot first in production and he could shave and return to his usual weight for scenes playing Valjean as a wealthy man.
Hugh Jackman went 36 hours without water, causing him to lose water weight around his eyes and cheeks, giving him the gaunt appearance of a prisoner.

Helena Bonham Carter is a first cousin five times removed from French politician Achille Fould, a major rival of Victor Hugo due to his support for Louis Napoleon III.
The large, crumbling elephant statue that features prominently during several scenes in the movie was both a real statue in Paris (between 1813 and 1846) and a focus of vivid description by Victor Hugo in his novel Les Misérables. Known as "The Elephant of the Bastille," Napoleon originally intended the statue to be a bronze monument to his military achievements at the former site of the Bastille, but the design was only ever rendered in plaster and wood; by the time of its demolition in 1846, the statue had become a haven for vermin and was significantly degraded structurally. In the novel, Hugo describes it as an ugly, dilapidated, widely despised public eyesore.
Quote: Jean Valjean: "Who am I?" Marius: "You're Jean Valjean..."
Anachronisms: 1. When a young child hops on the back of a horse drawn wagon, very clear views are given of the caliper disc brakes on the rear axle of the wagon. Brakes like this were not used until the 1890's at the earliest, many decades after these events took place. 2. The calf seen wandering in the barricades scene is a whitefaced hereford poll. That breed did not exist before the 1880, and did not reach France until the 20th Century. 3. The weir where Javert was supposed to jump to his death (with the Avon river & Pulteney bridge in Bath substituting for the Seine in 19th century Paris) was historically inaccurate. The weir (the 3 indentations on the river bed) which resembled the keel of a ship) was not built until 1975, so nothing like it could've existed on the Seine in 1832. 4. The bishop is shown wearing liturgical vestments including a chasuble and a stole. At that time in history the stole (which in this scene is over the chasuble) would have been worn crossed over the chest UNDER the chasuble. The mostly incorrect practice of wearing a stole over a chasuble did not start until after Vatican 2. 5. The bishop is wearing incorrect liturgical vestments. He is shown wearing a dalmatic which is the vestment for a deacon with a stole worn 'priest-wise' on top. A french bishop of this period would have worn a 'fiddle-back' Latin chasuble with crossed stole underneath.

This documentary was made to celebrate the Golden 50th Anniversary of the James Bond film series as well as being a promotional tie-in for the James Bond film Skyfall. 2.

This documentary premiered on "Global James Bond Day", 5th October 2012. This was created by the Skyfall Production to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the James Bond franchise and as a promotional tie-in for the release of Skyfall. According to the official website, 'Global James Bond Day' featured "Worldwide events celebrating Bond's golden anniversary [and] include[d] a global online and live charity auction event organized by Christie's in London, a global survey to discover the favorite Bond film country by country, a film retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, a Music of Bond night in Los Angeles hosted by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and Designing 007: 50 Years of James Bond Style opens at TIFF in Toronto." 6. The company that Harry Saltzman and Albert R. Broccoli, the original producers of the James Bond series, set up to produce the films was called "Eon", which was rumored to be an acronym for "Everything or Nothing." However, when James Bond-producer Michael G. Wilson asked Broccoli, his stepfather, if EON stands for that, he replied: "Never heard about that!".

Trivia: 1. It is an American computer-animated family-comedy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 52nd animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. The film was directed by Rich Moore, who has directed episodes of The Simpsons and Futurama, and the screenplay was written by Jennifer Lee and Phil Johnston from a story by Moore, Johnston and Jim Reardon. John Lasseter served as the executive producer. The film features the voices of John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman, Jack McBrayer, and Jane Lynch. The film tells the story of the titular arcade game villain who rebels against his role and dreams of becoming a hero. He travels between games in the arcade, and ultimately must eliminate a dire threat that could affect the entire arcade, and one that Ralph himself inadvertently started. 2. Wreck-It Ralph premiered at the El Capitan Theatre on October 29, 2012, and went into general release on November 2. The film has earned $471 million in worldwide box office revenue, $189 million of which was earned in the United States and Canada; it was met with critical and commercial success, winning the Annie Award for Best Animated Feature and receiving nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature Film and the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature. 3. In addition to the spoken roles, Wreck-It Ralph contains a number of other video game references, including characters and visual gags. At the meeting of video game villains, the above characters include, in addition to any mentioned above: Bowser from Super Mario Bros., Doctor Eggman from Sonic the Hedgehog, and Neff from Altered Beast. 4. Characters from Q*bert, including Q*bert, Coily, Slick, Sam and Ugg, are shown as "homeless" characters and later taken in by Ralph and Felix into their game (Q*bert also speaks to Felix at one point using the signature synthesized gibberish and word-balloon symbols from his game, called Q*bert-ese). Scenes in Game Central Station and Tapper's bar include Chun-Li, Cammy, and Blanka from Street Fighter, Pac-Man, Blinky, Pinky, and Inky from Pac-Man, the Paperboy from Paperboy, the two paddles and the ball from Pong, Dig Dug, a Pooka, and a Fygar from Dig Dug, The Qix from Qix, Frogger from Frogger, and Peter Pepper from BurgerTime. Additionally, Lara Croft and Mario are mentioned in reference. 5. The film has cameo appearances from the video game Street Fighter, a video game published by Capcom. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Capcom published video games of several Disney TV shows and movies such as DuckTales and Aladdin. 6. The short film Paperman was released with this film. 7. Unlike most animated films, the principal actors regularly recorded audio sessions together in the same room, a situation which led to a lot of improvising. 8. Disney first began developing an animated film about the world of video game characters in the 1980s. At that time the project was called "High Score" and in the 1990s was titled "Joe Jump." In the 2000s, when the movie was finally pushed forward, the first two months of story development focused on Fix-It Felix Jr. as the main character. 9. Early in production it was considered to keep all characters in their native graphic quality, essentially making Ralph look 8-bit the entire time. This was deemed too difficult for making Ralph a sympathetic, lovable character. 10. During early production, Disney had Mario set to cameo in the film, but producer Clark Spencer claimed that they "couldn't think of the right way to incorporate him into the film". 11. The character Ralph and his game "Fix-it Felix Jr." draw inspiration from Donkey Kong. Both games are about a handy-man character climbing up and around a building structure toward the villain on top. Both villains, Donkey Kong and Ralph, are large angry characters with wide hands that toss down objects at the hero. 12. Director Rich Moore was inspired to create the character of Vanellope after reading the memoir "The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption and Pee" by Sarah Silverman and eventually cast Silverman as the character. 13. The character Vanellope is depicted as a glitch in the game who is not supposed to play in the game. This is actually very common in video games. Developers will often create characters and other elements but decide not to include them in the end. It is actually more trouble to delete the code that contains the character because it may cause a chain reaction that glitches into other things, so the characters are simply "locked away" into the code. 14. Ralph describes Sugar Rush as a "candy-coated heart of darkness." Joseph Conrad's novel 'Heart of Darkness' described a trip into a foreign land, where a soldier had conquered and made his personal territory (like Turbo did with Sugar Rush). 15. The arcade owner character, Mr. Litwak, wears a referee's shirt as a reference to real life personality Walter Day, owner of the Twin Galaxies Arcade in Ottumwa, IA. Day is best know for appearing in the arcade documentaries Chasing Ghosts: Beyond the Arcade and The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters. 16. Sonic the Hedgehog appears in the movie when Ralph is first walking through in Game Central Station as an announcer on the screen monitors warning video game characters not to die outside their own game. Sonic is also at the party celebrating Fix-it Felix's 30th anniversary and is seen briefly getting hit by Ralph's escape pod as it barrels uncontrollably through Game Central Station, aswell as a guest of the wedding at the end. 17. The donut-shaped police who harass Ralph in the "Sugar Rush" game are named Wynnchel and Duncan, a sly reference to two U.S. donut chains: Winchell's Donut House and Dunkin' Donuts. 18. King Candy's safe is secured with a Nintendo Entertainment System controller. The password he enters (UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT, B, A, START) is a common cheat code used by game developer Konami in most of their titles, most famously in the game Contra. 19. King Candy's voice and character design is modeled after Ed Wynn a popular comedian and voice artist, best known as the voice of the Mad Hatter in Alice in Wonderland and Uncle Albert in Mary Poppins. 20. Several popular video game characters make an appearances in this movie, including but not limited to: M. Bison, Zangief, Ken, Ryu, Chun Li and Cammy from the Street Fighter Series; Q-Bert and his cast of enemies; Pac-Man and the orange ghost, Clyde; Bowser, from the Super Mario series; and Sonic the Hedgehog and Dr. Eggman. 21. The 'glitch' shown in the Disney logo at the end (see Crazy Credits) is intended to look like the infamous "Pac-Man Bomb Screen", a bug that manifests itself when reaching the 256th level in the original Pac-Man arcade game. 22. The church interior where Calhoun's has her wedding is designed after the Chapel at Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado. 23. Fix-It Felix is depicted as a carpenter in reference to the original Donkey Kong where Mario was also depicted as a carpenter before he was later changed to a plumber. 24. Ralph, Felix, Vanellope and Calhoun all resemble their respective voice actors. 25. Kano does his signature Mortal Kombat fatality on the zombie during the Bad Guys meeting. 26. The high score of Wreck-It-Ralph's game cabinet is 120501, which is also a nod to the birthday of Walt Disney when divided up as 12/05/01. 27. There is an arcade cabinet called FATAL ASSAULT, a completely fabricated game that features cameos by Tiny The Dinosaur and Lefty The Octopus from Disney's Meet The Robinsons. Tiny is also seen in the background of the Surge Protector station. 28. The train station of Nice Land shows that the population is 224x256, the common resolution of an 8-Bit game. Quotes: 1. Vanellope von Schweetz: "What's your name?" Wreck-It Ralph: "Ralph, Wreck-It Ralph." Vanellope von Schweetz: "Why are your hands so freakishly big?" Wreck-It Ralph: "I don't know. Why are you so freakishly annoying?" 2. King Candy: [puts on glasses] "You wouldn't hit a guy with glasses would you?" [Ralph smacks the King with the glasses] King Candy: "You hit a guy, with glasses. That's... that's... Well played." 3. Wreck-It Ralph: [Referring to his medal] "I didn't win it in my game, I won it in Hero's Duty." Vanellope von Schweetz: "'Hero's Doodie'? Pffffft!" [giggles loudly] Wreck-It Ralph: "It's not that kind of duty!" Vanellope von Schweetz: [Still laughing] "I bet you really gotta watch where you step in a game called 'Hero's Doodie'! What did ya get the medal for? Wiping? I hope you washed your hands after you handled that medal!" [breaks into laughter] Wreck-It Ralph: "I don't have time for this." Vanellope von Schweetz: "One more, one more. Why did the the hero flush the toilet?... Say why." Wreck-It Ralph: "Why?" Vanellope von Schweetz: "Because it was his... doodie!" Wreck-It Ralph: "How dare you insult Hero's Duty, you little guttersnipe! I earned that medal! And you better get it back for me toot-sweet sister!" Vanellope von Schweetz: "Well unless you've got a kart hidden in the fat folds of your neck, I can't help you."
