Before the scientists of Jurassic Park had learned the dangers of growing dinosaurs firsthand, they developed a unique method to control breeding - grow only female dinosaurs. Ian Malcolm warned that the solution wouldn't work forever, but Alan Grant had already proven the theory earlier in the film. During the group’s bumpy arrival on the island, Alan struggles with his helicopter seatbelt. Why? He’s trying to connect two female ends. Rather than swapping buckles or giving up, he fashions his own solution, just as mother nature would later in the movie. Grant, like Life "found a w

That's what's getting lost in the shuffle. Abrams is showing a single character asking Han about all the rumors she has heard. And given the backgrounds of the new characters, having Rey be the one unsure of it all makes the most sense. Much like Luke at the start of the original film, she's not a player in a widespread war. How she gets drawn into it remains to be seen, but the footage clearly indicates she comes from humble beginnings. Abrams isn't making it as if none of the fresh faces are aware about what happened three decades ago, just one. And both in-universe and for the movie itself, it's an extremely logical decision that should benefit The Force Awakens as a wh

A young Han Solo movie is also rumored to be one of the developing Star Wars spinoffs, possibly the one that Chronicle director Josh Trank is working on; if so, that would help to explain why Han isn't going to appear in Edwards' spinoff, should this rumor pan out. It's canon that Han won the Falcon from Lando Calrissian in a game online guide|https://Movietriviafocus.com/ (see their conversation in The Empire Strikes Back ) - so if we do see the ship in its days before Han owned it, that could mean an appearance by a young Lando is in order (either buying the Falcon or already being its own

Long before Anna, Elsa, and Olaf became household names, the makers of Frozen had a party to plan. Being named Queen of Arrendale may have stressed Elsa out, but it also meant the gates of the castle would finally be opened to villagers and visiting guests. Two of which might be familiar to Disney fans: Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, the stars of Disney's Tangl

Walt Disney Pictures and Lucasfilm's Star Wars universe is already underway on the small screen with the animated series Star Wars Rebels and this week, certain filmgoers will get their first look at J.J. Abrams' Star Wars: The Force Awakens when the teaser premieres in theaters . Now, a rumor has surfaced, regarding what's being planned for the first Star Wars spinoff mo

Jeff Bridges got the chance to show a darker side when cast as the villain of Iron Man , but the visual effects team made it clear which of the actor’s roles was their favorite. When Pepper Potts is secretly looking for evidence on his computer, the documents show weapons shipped on a vessel named "Lebowski" - a nod to Bridges’ role in The Big Lebowski released a decade earlier. His character’s name is also contained in a barcode for all to see, and exact quotes from the movie are easy to read in the fine print. Pepper and the viewers had just a fraction of a second to read all of the hidden messages, since she’s interrupted by none other than The Dude hims

It may be unexpected, but apply the Bible to the story, and some answers are possible. The moon LV-223 is likely a reference to Leviticus 22:3, a warning from God that "…if any of your descendants is unclean, and yet comes near these sacred offerings…they shall perish before the Lord." To make the twist on Christianity even clearer, Scott had planned to explain that an Engineer sent to save mankind 2,000 years ago was crucified instead, but decided that was a little too on the n

It wasn't just powerful fighters or alien invaders that Marvel's Avengers had to tackle in their second team-up, but a girl who could force them to face their worst fears, or tempt them with a better life. For Captain America, that meant sending him back to a USO soiree before he was frozen for decades. Pay attention to the band though: the Roy Thomas Players aren't named after a musician, but a Marvel Comics leg

Now known as one of the greatest action movies of all time, it's easy to forget the softer side of Die Hard hero John McClane. When the New York cop flies to Los Angeles to spend Christmas with his family, he brings a gift with him: a large stuffed bear, complete with a red ribbon tied around its neck. If the movie followed the novel it was based on, that bear should have made it to John's daughter, but director John McTiernan never got to show that scene. Apparently, nothing said fatherly love to the director like a teddy bear, since his next movie The Hunt For Red October doubled down on the idea. When Jack Ryan had saved the day and headed home to his wife and daughter, he did what any good dad would do: picked up a teddy bear of his own, red ribbon and

With the star of this near-future action film advertised as part man, part machine, it’s hard to see how Robocop could truly take inspiration from the Bible. But the events of the movie are a clear match: Alex Murphy is a hero in a corrupt city, who is killed, resurrected, and emerges as a robotic savior. Director Paul Verhoeven confirmed that a Biblical allegory was his goal, even including a scene of Murphy walking on water in the film’s third act. According to the Dutch filmmaker, an invincible hero who used bullets instead of forgiveness was his idea of "an American Jesus," dishing out brutal justice in a world torn apart by violent cr
