J.J. Abrams: Star Trek Into Darkness Had Too Many Wrath Of Khan Nods

There are still far too many unknown variables to say with any certainty that this rumored storyline for Edwards' Star Wars spinoff is or is not accurate, though. We still don't know who the majority of the Force Awakens cast are playing in this film universe (the Star Wars OT cast members aside) and even if one of the spinoffs does indeed revolve around a mission to steal the Death Star plans, there's no guarantee it'll be the first one released in theat

In recent days, Latino-Review has been dropping some big rumors about Episode VII ; first came word that Emperor Palpatine will be returning - if only as the Sith equivalent of a "force ghost" - and now the website claims to have knowledge that Ewan McGregor's Obi-Wan Kenobi could also be coming back as a ghostly gu

However, in the case of Peter Jackson's King Kong remake, the director included a tongue-in-cheek message for savvy moviegoers who actually took the time to do translation work. Just before reaching Skull Island, SS Venture captain Englehorn intercepts a coded message calling for the arrest of Carl Denham (Jack Black). Yet the audible code does not actually say anything about an arrest and instead reads: " Show me the monkey! " - a campy hidden message in honor of the film's titular ape that will probably make readers think twice the next time they see morse code depicted on scr

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 https://movietriviafocus.com/ pan out. It's canon that Han won the Falcon from Lando Calrissian in a game (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

When Luke's friends are used as bait to draw him to Cloud City, the young Jedi catches just a glimpse of them before the trap is sprung. But when the scene was filmed, the actor who was supposed to wrestle Leia out of the hallway was a no-show. Actor Jeremy Bulloch saved the day, taking off his Boba Fett armor, and throwing on an Imperial uniform. It's a rare look at the man who actually played the part under the Mandalorian's famous helmet, but Bulloch got another cameo in Revenge of the Sith , piloting the Rebel Blockade Runner that would kick off the original tril

Backstory: After tensions rise at the station, Veronica Corningstone (Christina Applegate) visits a Mexican restaurant with other women from the KVWN Channel 4 - plotting a practical joke to get even for the continued arrogance and sexism displayed by Ron Burgandy and the rest of San Diego's "Number One News Team." The restaurant the ladies visit is the "Escupimos en su Alimento" - which, when translated in Spanish, actually means " we spit in your foo

Of course, license plates aren't the only references to religious texts in the Matrix series, given that, among others, Nebuchadnezzar (the name of Morpheus' ship) was also a Babylonian King - and the speaker chronicled in the aforementioned Daniel 2:03 t

It's the context of the who and what that underscores that moment in the trailer. Admittedly, 30 years is really not that much time, so people who are involved with the conflict on a regular basis know all about the Rebellion taking on the Empire, the Battle of Endor, and all the fallout from the new canon material. But Rey? A scavenger who's far away on Jakku? She's the one person in this film who truly needs a crash course covering what's happened. And since she's being set up as the protagonist of the sequel trilogy, the actual movie should be all the better for

Somewhere out there in the universe, a force is growing under a veil of secrecy and shadow - and not just any force, but THE force. We're now two years away from the 2015 release of J.J. Abrams' Star Wars Episode VII and we still know little-to-nothing solid about what Disney has planned for its big re-launch of Star Wars - other than the fact that some familiar faces will be returning to the franch

We can also safely assume that Finn (John Boyega) has some basic knowledge of the prior conflict. He essentially grew up in the First Order, and allegedly learned lightsaber techniques as part of his basic training. Someone in the First Order probably told young stormtroopers and recruits about what happened before. The same can be said for Resistance pilot Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac), whose parents were featured in the canon comic Shattered Empire . It seems as if he's been a part of this faction his whole life (or, for at least a majority of it) and grew up around Han, Luke, and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), hearing stories of their adventures in his yo

Furthermore, the post-credits audio message isn't the only secret in Cloverfield - as the film also contains three hidden frames from classic monster movies: Them! , The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms , and King Ko
