Movie Trivia: THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN (2012)

Trivia: The Amazing Spider-Man (2012)

In early January 2010, Sony announced that they cancelled their idea of making "Spider-Man 4" with director Sam Raimi and actor Tobey Maguire, who started their work together on Spider-Man, and instead decided to re-boot the Spider-Man franchise with a new story and crew. 

This is the first "Spider-Man" film to not feature Spider-Man's perennial love interest Mary-Jane Watson (in the original three films played by Kirsten Dunst). Instead, Peter Parker's original girlfriend Gwen Stacy appears.

In this film Spider-Man uses artificial devices to shoot webs, inspired from the original comics where he possessed similar devices for his webbing (only later would he gain his more famous superhuman ability to shoot webs). Marc Webb explained the web-shooters were a creative decision to showcase Peter's intellect: "We wanted to emphasize that these are things that Peter Parker made and that he is special himself even if he feels like he's an outsider." 

The Dark Knight Rises on 2012: One's Own Interpretation

Somebody is thinking of something else as The Dark Knight Rises on 2012.
What is your own point of view?

Movie Trivia: The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

Trivia: The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

Christian Bale has stated that he would not play Batman if Robin appeared anywhere in the trilogy. Christopher Nolan agreed not to include Robin as it would undermine the dark tone of his series. 

After The Dark Knight was released, Aaron Eckhart expressed interest in returning as Harvey "Two-Face" Dent, as the film had left his role relatively open-ended. Christopher Nolan stated that Dent was definitely dead, and that his death would leave lasting repercussions across Gotham. 

Christopher Nolan picked Bane as the main villain. Coincidentally, with no known relation, the name of one of the creators of Bane for the comic books is Graham Nolan.

What is Your Favorite "Old" Movie? Mine's an "Old" Movie of "Nick Fury"

Fourteen years after The Negotiator has been released in the big screen, I am still watching it...until now. And I watched the whole thing again just today. 

I'm thinking, what is it that make me watch this movie again and again? Maybe, I tell myself...this could be my favorite movie. Maybe just one of my two favorite "old" movies I watch over and over again. The other one, I'll tell you later.

Here is the first teaser photo that Anne released in her twitter account:

As seen in the photo above, looks like she will be the one kidnapped in the film. The photo somehow makes me think of "Nasaan Ka Elisa" (below), a past teleserye of ABS-CBN. What do you think?

Let's watch out for more updates regarding this movie coming soon.

Movie Trivia: THE HUNGER GAMES (2012)

THE HUNGER GAMES (2012)

Liam Hemsworth and Jennifer Lawrence, both natural blondes, dyed their hair brown for their roles in the film while Josh Hutcherson, naturally dark-haired, dyed his hair blond for his part. 

The name of the main character, Katniss, is derived from the name of a group of edible plant species, genus "Sagittaria", commonly known as "arrowhead". This is a reference to the character's archery skills. 

The fictional nation in the film is called Panem. This is derived from "Panem et Circenses," or "Bread and Circuses," which comes from the latter days of the Roman Empire, in which the government would keep the masses satisfied not by performing their public services well, but by providing violent and deadly entertainments for the people to watch, which is rather fitting for the subject matter of the film. 

Movie Trivia: TWILIGHT SAGA - TWILIGHT (2008)

Twilight (2008)

Kristen Stewart has naturally green eyes. She wears brown contacts for filming to match Bella's eye color. 

Kellan Lutz intended on keeping his natural curly hair for the role of Emmett Cullen. However, his previous role in Generation Kill required a buzz cut and his hair didn't grow fast enough for the filming of Twilight. 

Henry Cavill was Stephenie Meyer's first choice to play Edward. However, but by the time production was to begin, he was 25 years old, and no longer looked the part of a 17-year old. He was then offered the part of Carlisle Cullen but turned it down due to his commitment with The Tudors. 

For the role of Edward Cullen, Robert Pattinson flew from England to director Catherine Hardwicke's house to audition. There, he and Kristen Stewart, who was already cast as Bella Swan, rehearsed the "Love Scene"/"Meadow Scene" on Hardwicke's own bed. 

Movie trivia: TWILIGHT SAGA: ECLIPSE (2010)

Eclipse (2010)

Robert Pattinson refused to let his eyebrows be plucked/waxed down as they had been in the previous two films. 

The note Bella retrieves from her drawer that happens to be from Jacob is actually the same note that is used as the prologue of the 'Eclipse' novel. Just as in the novel, lines of text are scored out rather than erased. 

Rachelle Lefevre was fired by Summit Entertainment from this movie, because her filming schedule overlapped with that of her other movie Barney's Version, and was replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard 

When Charlie is sitting at the kitchen table looking at the Riley flyer, it states that Riley was born April 10th, 1990. This is the day after Kristen Stewart's birthday. She was born April 9th, 1990. 

Movie Trivia: TWILIGHT SAGA - NEW MOON (2009)

New Moon (2009)

When Carlisle is cleaning out Bella's wound after her disastrous eighteenth birthday party, he drops a match into the bowl with the glass, blood gauze, etc. If you look closely, you can see that it resembles the cover of the novel 'New Moon'. This is similar to what Melissa Rosenberg did in Twilight, when Edward caught the apple that Bella dropped in the cafeteria. 

After months of speculation and rumors, director Chris Weitz and the novel's author, Stephenie Meyer, confirmed on her official website that Taylor Lautner would be reprising his role as Jacob Black. It was doubted as the filmmakers feared he would not be able to become fit enough in time. However, he was given the go-ahead after gaining 26 pounds of muscle. 

Each member of the wolf pack had to have papers proving their Native descent. Chaske Spencer is Lakota (Sioux), Bronson Pelletier is Cree-Metis, Alex Meraz is Purepecha (Tarasco), Kiowa Gordon is Hualapai, and Tyson Houseman, who was discovered at an open casting call, is Cree. 

Movie Trivia: TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN Part 1 & 2 (2011 & 2012)

Breaking Dawn (2011 & 2012)

According to Bella and Edward's wedding invitations, the address of the Cullen residence is listed as 420 Woodcroft Ave Forks, WA. 

Kristen Stewart has said in an interview that filming Bella and Edward's honeymoon sex scene was very awkward, and that by the end of the shoot, she didn't even feel like they had just filmed a passionate scene. 

Robert Pattinson went through a strict diet and exercise regime for six months in preparation before filming. He stopped his routine after filming the much-talked-about sex scene. 

Kristen Stewart said Taylor Lautner was in tears when the cast watched an unfinished cut. 

The sex scene between Edward and Bella originally caused the film to receive an R rating by the MPAA. The scene had to be edited to receive a PG-13 rating.
