I can't see that being true... I've never heard that before. I need a source.

[QUOTE=Glock Samson;31044386]In all of the originals he was in the suit, but after that I don't know.[/QUOTE]
Episode 1 its obvious he isn't playing him physically, Episode 2 he was in the suit again minus the CG scenes obviously, and same with Episode 3.

That's why he did C3PO, he said when he saw 3PO he didn't see any of the cliche Sci-Fi droid things in him.
Some trivia from "A Hard Day's Night"
-The fans chasing the Beatles to the train station at the beginning of the movie are actually real fans.
-The word "Beatles" is never mentioned in the movie.
-John Lennon's written answer to the female reporter asking him if he has any hobbies, is the word "tits". lol
-In the beginning scene George Harrison trips and falls over. This was not supposed to happen and he ripped the suit he was wearing.
-Even though all four Beatles went to the premiere, none of them stayed for the whole show.

Owen Wilson has been in some lousy movies, but also in Fantastic Mr. Fox, Life Aquatic, Royal Tenenbaums, Bottle Rocket, etc.
Oh I've revealed that I'm a Wes Anderson fan what have I done.
[QUOTE=Alaskan Wolf;31059088]I'm pretty sure this is well known, but Three actors died in a helicopter crash while filming the move 'The Twilight Zone.' The deaths were captured on film from different angles.

Before the film was released, the three main actors were listed as "missing, presumed dead" on the IMDb.[/quote]
Now that is pretty cool.

I'm sorry, but I would of HATED to be an actor in that movie.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;31085076]why?[/QUOTE]
I feel like I wouldn't like it because I didn't know what was going to happen. It's more of a personal preference thing.
[editline]13th July 2011[/editline]
not sure if I'm wording it correctly.
[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;31085076]why?[/QUOTE]
Well according to the trivia posted, they seemed to have been scared shitless all the time :v:
All of the scenes of Peter Sellers in [b]The Trail of the Pink Panther[/b] were really cut scenes from other Pink Panther films (except for one, which is seen at the beginning of The Pink Panther Strikes Again). This was due to Peter Sellers death in 1980.
David Niven, who was set to reprise his role from the first Pink Panther, is not heard at all in the film. When the film was shot, Niven was getting older and his voice was far too quite to be heard, so a vocal double was hired to loop in all of his dialogue.
On the Twilight Zone thing: Holy Shit. I didn't know about that until a few weeks ago when I was browsing Wikipedia. To actually see it on film is just awful.
[QUOTE=Simski;31087393]Well according to the trivia posted, they seemed to have been scared shitless all the time :v:[/QUOTE]
this.
While acting on [b]Full Metal Jacket[/b], R. Lee Ermey would improvise much of his dialogue. During one instance, he described the act of a "reach around." Director Stanley Kubrick yelled cut and asked Ermey "What the hell is a reach around?" Ermey then explained to Kubrick, Kubrick then thought it over, and then returned to shooting and kept the line in.
Also
The entire film was shot in England.

Including the Hue sequences.
In the film [b]Master and Commander[/b] Russell Crowe had to learn how to play a violin in order to fit with his character in the film. All the scenes which involved Crowe playing the violin were authentic. He considered learning the violin the hardest thing he had ever done for a film.

The film company realized that later, and tried to cover up for it by saying that the figures were just "imaginations" of what the witch COULD'VE looked like. I kind of like the idea of the tree witch though, I guess they were trying to say it could've been in the background of the the film the whole time, it taking place in a forest and all.

This is a great movie. Seriously. I think that it's one that goes on my top 10 lists of movies.
At the end of American History X, the cafe that Derek and Danny eat at is also the same cafe used to film a scene in The Big Lebowski.

were you tired or drunk when you walked out?
A mile of IMAX 3D film can only shoot 8 minutes 30 seconds of footage.
The beginning of production of Terminator was postponed for nine months, due to Arnold Schwarzenegger's commitment to Conan the Destroyer. During this time, James Cameron wanted to be working but didn't have the time to do a whole other film so he took on a writing assignment; this turned out to be Aliens.
[editline]16th July 2011[/editline]
One afternoon during a break in filming, Arnold Schwarzenegger went into a restaurant in downtown L.A. to get some lunch and realized all too late that he was still in Terminator makeup - with a missing eye, exposed jawbone and burned flesh.

Oh um. The movie Quantum of Solace was really bad.
