- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -0/+43In reality, the car accident story was fabricated to cover the fact that he really was smacked by a Wampa.
- SkippyDoorknob, on 01/07/2009, -0/+42The scene at the beginning of Empire where Luke gets his face smacked by the Wampa was to help explain the slight difference in appearance due to Mark Hamill's car accident.
- Bloodwine, on 01/07/2009, -0/+17Short Version: Hollywood's best work is when things don't go according to their plan, and improvisations are made.
- oboshoe, on 01/07/2009, -1/+16Dugg for Apocalypse now.
The helicopters moving in with the classic music blaring is the *****. - TheNik, on 01/07/2009, -1/+15"Rest in... BEAST!" might be the greatest tagline ever used for a motion picture...
- bluepill2, on 01/07/2009, -1/+15Leave it to cracked to pull a Rule 34 on C3PO.
I... kinda liked it though. - djpray2k, on 01/07/2009, -0/+11As for Jaws I'm pretty sure that film helped coin the phrase 'blockbuster' with its lines that went around the block.
Could I also add Back to the Future...first Eric Stoltz was meant to play Marty - http://hurtyelbow.typepad.com/images/back-to-the-f ... and http://www.benpopik.com/archives/ericstoltz.jpg
AND the time machine was going to be a fridge until the studio worried kids would start getting trapped in them and sue their balls off! - Hetman, on 01/07/2009, -1/+9What the hell is wrong with Dorothy. Why the hell would she want to go back to kansas when she is in the emarld city. The emarld city was the *****. Kansas has nothing on it.
- vinceislegend, on 01/07/2009, -0/+6Ouch! Right in the childhood.
- Heiminator, on 01/07/2009, -0/+6that classic music would be the ride of the valkyries
- zip000, on 01/07/2009, -0/+6I'm one of the three people that hasn't seen Titanic!
It's nice to be recognized :-) - Bloodwine, on 01/07/2009, -1/+6Sounds like they really lucked into their early successes and those films succeeded despite them.
- BillDoor, on 01/07/2009, -0/+5What no Gone with the Wind. Production wise the greatest disaster film ever made. Dozens of scripts and yet no script in the end. Three directors, one of whom had a nervous breakdown. No lead actress until a week or two before primary production began. First mouths shooting footage dumped because it was too dark. And the list goes on...
- jk_baller23, on 01/07/2009, -0/+5The chick in the Cracked Official Store image is hot.
http://content.yieldmanager.edgesuite.net/atoms/c7 ... - newerakb, on 01/07/2009, -0/+4This was actually a rather well researched and written article for Cracked...I'm impressed.
- Hetman, on 01/07/2009, -0/+4emerald gotch ya.
- herrshuster, on 01/08/2009, -0/+3I'm another. Hm. We must find the third.
- XenoSNK, on 01/07/2009, -1/+4Note to self - this never happened and Jackson knew exactly what he was doing in making the LOTR trilogy come to life in film.
- trakie, on 01/09/2009, -0/+3right here.
- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -1/+4I did it for the C3PO nipple tassle and I watch alot of movies and find the trivia interesting. I mean did you know that the cast and crew of Titanic consumed PCP that was put in some lobster? I didn't and find it ***** hillarious.
- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3In art, as in biology, mutation is the key to evolution.
- andrewlotta, on 01/08/2009, -0/+3Regarding The Wizard of Oz Munchkin Hanging Myth...It's definitely not true.
Also, regarding this quote from the Titanic section: "cast members...even suffered kidney infections from logging so many hours floating around in the dirty ol' Pacific down Mexico way. Who would have guessed the water in Mexico would cause illness?"
All the water scenes were shot in a makeshift room filled to look like the ocean. I'm too lazy to look it up, but I'm assuming it was freshwater (and if not, presumably clean saltwater)... - analreceiver, on 01/07/2009, -2/+5From the urban dictionary:
Rule 34:
Generally accepted internet rule that states that pornography or sexually related material exists for any conceivable subject. Additionally it is accepted that the rule itself has limitations and you cannot be too specific on the content of the item in question.
No, I didn't know - Pixelante, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3Green is non incompatible with hot and awesome, check out any Orion slave girl.
- jshhmr, on 01/07/2009, -3/+6Titanic is a classic? Seriously? I walked out in the middle of the movie it was so cheesy. As a Titanic buff, I was hoping for something a little more serious and historical.
- ringo380, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3She sure is jkballer23, she sure is.
- newbill123, on 01/07/2009, -0/+3I'd add Alien to the list. Probably too similar in reasoning to Jaws flaws (stupid looking alien demands editing as a suspense film), but if you've seen the footage of the original alien you start to think that perhaps other sci-fi productions at the same time (like Doctor Who) had a decent special effects team after all.
- borez, on 01/07/2009, -3/+5It feels good to throw in a completely stupid comment now and again. For sure.
- Sylocat, on 01/08/2009, -0/+2I am so pissed off that The Dark Knight didn't unseat that atrocity from the #1 slot at the box office.
- Hetman, on 01/07/2009, -0/+2All I know is that wicked is awesome. And with out giving anything away the wicked witch of the west is both hot and awesome even though she is green.
- djpray2k, on 01/07/2009, -0/+2Yeah but I swear on a docu (I think about Jaws) that this was the first movie that the term was used for.
- allisonaxe, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1in the books, she later winds up back in Oz, and goes home again.. when she somehow ends up drawn there again, she just decides to stay. the fact that one of the magic users fetches her aunt and uncle makes it bearable (even though we seldom here of what their lives in oz became.)
- hobbes84k, on 01/07/2009, -2/+3I loved this article, but it sure makes me wish that I didn't like movies made by Spielberg and Lucas so much. Complete douches.
- x00x, on 01/10/2009, -0/+1I was all set to digg you down but "orion slave girl" had me go the other way.
- DetpackJump, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1emarld
- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -1/+2Evil Dead should have made the list. Just reading about the production of that one in Bruce Campbell's bio nearly gave me a complete nervous breakdown.
- vashth3stampede, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1lucas is an idiot. did you even see episodes 1-3?
- inactive, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1Gotch
- oboshoe, on 01/07/2009, -0/+1ah yes thank you. Wanted to put that in the post, but I couldn't remember the name.
- Origin415, on 01/08/2009, -0/+1I used to be in your proud ranks.
Then I got a girlfriend.
I regret both. - rz8472, on 01/07/2009, -3/+3It's probably not a classic, but Peter Jackson was at one point planning to have Arwen fight at the Battle of Helm's Deep in the Two Towers as some sort of "Xena - Warrior Princess" thing...
- fattehboi, on 01/08/2009, -1/+1meh
- whatever01, on 01/07/2009, -1/+1The term "blockbuster" goes back at least to WWII when very large bombs - 2000 lbs - were used, bombs that could destroy a city block.
- Pixelante, on 01/07/2009, -0/+0Some other people had the same thought. Those people scripted "Tin Man".
- wobbles82, on 01/07/2009, -1/+1Less than a month into shooting, Coppola realized that Keitel and his penis were all wrong for Willard, and the pair were fired and replaced with Sheen... who subsequently had a massive, near fatal heart attack on set.
Ohhh..their way with words are a delight - Pixelante, on 01/07/2009, -2/+2No, he ran over a Wampa with his car and had his face lacerated by Wampa-rights activists.
- quisph, on 01/07/2009, -2/+1Buried for not mentioning Fitzcarraldo, and for being 50% Spielberg/Lucas fanboy crap.
- jkoby, on 01/07/2009, -4/+2Why do people continuously blindly digg articles from cracked.com...
- MagMan68Classic, on 01/07/2009, -3/+1No Back To The Future?
The universe was almost destroyed multiple times - inactive, on 01/07/2009, -4/+1He talked about fight club?
