Schmoes Know reported last night (at the time of writing this) that Han Solo will appear in the Boba Fett movie - now on the lookout for a new director, as former helmsman Josh Trank (the upcoming Fantastic Four reboot) has stepped down. The site's sources are also claiming that "conversations" are currently underway between Disney/Lucasfilm and Ewan McGregor - who played the younger version of Obi-Wan featured in the Star Wars prequel movie trilogy ( Episodes I-III ) - and that the talks involve an "unknown" project, rather than the aforementioned Boba Fett f

The prequels tend to get a rough ride from fans, but what if we told you one of the saga's greatest moments was hidden in the background of Revenge of the Sith ? Believe it. When Obi-wan is hunting down General Grievious, clone troopers are fighting battle droids all around him. For a split second, one clone trooper can be seen squaring off against a droid, dropping it with a stiff jab to the head, and a brutal body blow. Easy to miss or not, why this trooper isn't worshipped as one of the franchise's coolest heroes is beyond us - but now's a good time to st

George Lucas may have dreamed up one incredible space opera all by himself, but it was Ralph McQuarrie's concept paintings which made the director's vision a reality, and convinced Fox that it was worth investing in. McQuarrie's role wasn't lost on Lucas either: when it came time to film The Empire Strikes Back , he made sure to give the painter a cameo, strutting through Hoth's Echo Base - with his sketchpad in hand, obviou

Every fan of Quentin Tarantino knows that the director likes to connect his films into one universe , with characters living in the same world, or some films existing as movies for those characters to see in a theater. But what about a movie that reveals it's just a movie in its own story? That's what some fans claim about Jackie Brown . When a character walks out of a movie theater to the sound of its credits score, the music is what's expected of Tarantino. But viewers will eventually realize that it's the same music that plays over the movie's own end credits. A shared universe wasn't enough: the director had to hint that Jackie Brown was already playing in theaters while the cast was still living through

There are multiple theories circulating the web about all the connections between Disney and Pixar films, and certain easter eggs lend more credence to these theories than others. For instance, one shot from Toy Story 3 confirms that the series' main human character, Andy, exists in the same world as Carl and Ellie Fredricksen from Up . If you look closely at the bulletin board in Andy's room, there's a postcard from the couple that includes the address of their beloved yellow house, before it's transported to South America, of cou

Director John Hughes had a knack for churning out classic movies in the 1980s, and with Ferris Bueller's Day Off , decided to remind audiences of that very fact (in as subtle a way as possible). The license plate of Cameron's father's Ferrari reading NRVOUS - "nervous" - fits his character, but it's the rest of the cars that deliver the nods to the director's previous work. The plate on Ferris' mother's car - VCTN - refers to Vacation , his dad's plate - MMOM - refers to Mr. Mom , and the principal's plate was clearly made just for Ferris Bueller's Day Off - 4F

To populate the behind-the-scenes world of arcade games in Wreck-It Ralph , animators included characters from classic video games. Bowser, Pac-Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, Q*bert, and Frogger are among those that make an appearance. But, in one wide shot of game walkthrough|https://movietriviafocus.com/ Central Station, two characters unrelated to video games can be seen: Vladimir, one of the thugs in the Snuggly Duckling Pub, and Maximus, the proud palace horse, from Tangled , are walking in opposite directions in the station. There's also a dinosaur that very closely resembles Tiny the T-Rex from Meet the Robinsons , filling the scene with references to other Disney films amid all the game charact

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

Though most of its action may be focused on a single cathedral, that doesn't stop The Hunchback of Notre Dame from squeezing in some Disney cameos, with the opening scene alone featuring a vendor selling Aladdin's magic carpet, and Beauty and the Beast's Belle out for a morning stroll. The Lion King 's resident jokester Pumbaa may seem an odd fit for Paris, France, but his cameo in the film's climax is even better: proudly standing guard as a stone gargo
