I don't like Tarantino movies, either.

I don't like Quinton or up I agree with you

Here's an amazing fact, to do with "Carrie" (1976). "Carrie" is iconic in every respect, from its begining to its end. The tragic story of an abused outcast teenager with telekinesis taking revenge on her high school prom struck a major cord with viewers, but director Brian De Palma had one final trick up his sleeve to terrify even Stephen King himself. To film Sue Snell's nightmare scene, actress Amy Irving walked and moved backwards, and reverse motion was used to give the illusion of her walking forwards. When Carrie grabs Sue's arm, that really was Sissy Spacek buried under the stones. Even with the book it was based on being a best seller, Stephen King was doubtful that the film would work, and only gained his confidence when he and his wife attended a screening with a completely black audience. Two men sat in front of them screamed their lungs out and grabbed each other at the ending.

[@corywilliams2255]

There's an often forgotten or overlooked fact about CARRIE. In all three versions, Carrietta White was portrayed by small women- Sissy Spacek, Angela Bettis, and Chloe Grace Moretz-and all three women were great in the role. However, the character, as written in the novel, was actually overweight.

[@aprettygothichick]

King's wife also saved Carrie when it was just a book too. King thought the story was no good so he threw away the first couple chapters. His wife found it, read it, and told Stephen he needed to finish it because she needed to know how it ended. He has his wife to thank for his career making first story

[@ahorsethatisnt3683]

I see Tarantino as an imaginative man living in his own world hyping the untold stories of the nitty-gritty. I might not share his values but I can't help but admire and respect his art.

The original artwork for the Genie in Disney's Aladdin,he was going to be purple and wore a turban. They decided later that all the good guys would wear blue and the bad guys red,so the Genie was redrawn as blue.

[@Lucoa.Kthe2aHashira]

Last fact i had to cry because it reminded of of nightline news the day he passed away and they played his line “you’ll always be a prince to me” from the movie. We all still miss you Robin wish you were still here making us laugh

[@Fatalroadie]

In Kubrick's The Shining, Nicholson had worked as a volunteer fire marshal and tore it apart far too easily. The props department was then forced to build a stronger door.

[@Ali98996901]

The Crow: The most iconic scene: the first look at The Crow makeup in the window with lightning... was not Brandon Lee. Early CGI took the face from an unused scene to paste on the body double. That body double fell in love with fight choreography while filming scenes to make-up for the tragic loss of Brandon Lee. He fell so in love with it, he went on to study film making and directed a little film series called... John Wick.

[@marcusjackson546]

Wow no fucking way!!!!! My mind is blown!!!

[@richewilson6394]

Robin Williams made it clear to Disney producers that he did not want to have the genie in the marketing of the movie of Aladdin. But they broke that agreement so Robin Williams had like a lawsuit as well as did not work for them for some years because of it.

[@richewilson6394]

@T6065-v7c I can't remember but it was one of those things you didn't know about Disney. That's why he never did the sequel to Aladdin It wasn't until They made it right to him for the third Aladdin movie that they were able to have him be in.

[@jmd1980]

Came to say the same thing lol

[@stumbling_buddhist2255]

This is a tearjerker. During the filming of The Deer Hunter, the great John Cazale was dying of cancer. He tried to hide it from everyone. His girlfriend at the time, and aspiring actress named Meryl Streep, who did not yet have her SAG card, was living with him in his trailer and taking care of him. The director Michael Cimino saw her and asked her if she would like to be in the movie. So they got her her SAG card... Imagine the body of work if John Cazale had lived longer. I hope nobody else already wrote about this, but I just can't read anymore comments in order to double check!

My favorite little known movie fact is about the Peter Sellers film 'Being There'. Sellers had said his entire career up to that point had merely been training for that movie. 6 months after the film's completion Sellers died of a heart condition, at just 54 years of age.

[@maryrosekent8223]

_Being There_ is one of my favorite movies! “I like to watch, Eve.” Also, I was living in WDC at the time, and some of the shooting was in my neighborhood-I wasn’t there at the same time as the filming was going on, but I recognized something…a park maybe?

[@maryrosekent8223]

_Silence of the Lambs_ was on of the most unsettling films I have ever seen. I saw it at The Castro Theatre in San Francisco, and the seven-block walk to my apartment from the movie theater was creepy-it was late autumn and dried leaves were falling and I kept crushing them and then sorta bleat-screaming-whimpering.

I don’t care for the vast majority of QT films. However, I really enjoyed Kill Bill and KB V2 - mainly because of the martial arts scenes (I am a martial artist, as is my husband) and secondarily due to the music. The soundtrack was EPIC.

Great ! 😮That's all I need to say. 😊

[@RoxanneScourfield]

Best Easter egg of the video? Hufflepuff Keeper. I loved that 😊

[@saphiro007]

7:55, also, the iconic line that Hannibal utters in the movie, talking about his dinner; it wasn’t just for naught. It was a subtle hint to Clarisse that he was either off his medication, or misusing it, as well as a minor joke to himself. Allow me to explain: Liver, fava beans, and wines, especially Red Ones; are foods to be avoided if one is on MAOIs, due to the presence of Tyramine. The Tyramine in the foods can trigger serious side effects when consumed with MAOIs.

And it was Kevin James who makes a joke about the phone number rhythm

[@ajcb2024]

The T-Rex in the 1st Jurassic park had a malfunction as they were filing in the rain, and that's why it smashed through the car sunroof, and that is the kids' real reaction.

[@Vizslamum54321]

I would have to agree re: UP. The first 1/2 hr is extraordinary . It’s visually stunning, the storytelling without a single line of dialogue about the old man’s relationship with his wife is both beautiful and tragic, but tasteful in every way and the music is exquisite. I did find that I was easily distracted once the house landed, and had a hard time following the story from there on. However, the relationship between the old man and the boy is charming and very well performed. Overall, the movie is well worth watching.

In Martin Scorsese's iconic 1976 dark drama Taxi Driver, Iris (Jodie Foster) is walking with another woman played by Garth Avery who was a New York prostitute that Foster shadowed to help her with the development of her character. The later scene where Iris meets Travis finds her ordering toast with jam and adding sugar to her meal. Some viewers believed this was done because Iris was still a child and loved sugar, but Foster noted that Avery, who was addicted to heroin, did this as part of her addiction and Foster incorporated it with her character.

I stumbled upon your videos not long ago. I love the 25 Facts videos. I'm sure since I've just found them I'm behind that's OK it just means I won't run out of them soon. I am watching Mind Blowing Movie Facts. I have to agree with you on a few of them. Quentin Tarantino is a rather odd person I've only seen a few of his movies. I'm sure I'm going to upset a few people on this one. Pulp Fiction was a rather strange one. I'm my opinion this is how I seen it. The beginning of the movie was the end, the end was the beginning, and the middle had nothing to do with it. That's how I feel about it. Here's one fun fact for you that you might find funny. You talk about the movie Up. Well in there all the dog named Dog says Squirrel and look around. A few yrs ago I found a stray or Abandoned dog. Not sure if he's a German Shepherd Husky mix or a Husky wolf mix or a German Shepherd wolf mix anyways while looking for his owner I put an ad out about a found dog. I even wrote some of it like it was coming from him to his family. Every once in a while I would put the word Squirrel or make a reference about Squirrels. Sadly his family never came to clam him and he became part of my life. When trying to find a name for him that fit. He/me got online and asked what a good name for him would b. Everyone hands down voted for the name Squirrel. Like I had thought a dog would say how they do in the movie up and that's what they might think of. Ok sorry for talking so long I just thought it was funny that youd talk about that movie. Keep doing what your doing its awesome and very interesting

In the exorcist movie the “serial killer” only murdered one man… the other men were pinned on him because the guy he killed was gay and there was an actual serial killer going around killing and dismembering them, throwing them in the river. The man he killed was more out of passion and was not dismembered. Either way he did kill a gay man but only one.
