1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Dead Serious (2011)?
a.		Special Recognition - Feel Good Film Festival/Indieflix.
b.		The chase sequence takes place over a number of non-contiguous streets in and south of San Francisco. The sequence apparently starts under Highway 101 in the Mission District. When the Charger does a U-turn on what is Precita Avenue to follow the Mustang, a storage tank on Potrero Hill, in the southeast part of SF, is visible in the distance. The next few scenes are in the Bernal and Potrero areas; you can see green hills to the southwest on the horizon in one shot. Twenty-one seconds later, Coit Tower appears in the Mustangs front window to the east (as can be ascertained by the buildings shadows). They then come to a stop for a Cable Car on Hyde Street and Filbert. The twin towers of Sts. Peter and Paul Church are visible just to the right of Coit Tower. They turn hard left next onto a four-lane street with a concrete median, what might be Columbus. A F-type street car is seen coming the opposite direction. They top a rise and Angel Island comes into view slightly on the left, placing them on about Stockton and Chestnut. They turn north, then west, then south uphill. In the next cut, they are coming downhill, north towards the Bay. They turn west and the next few scenes are inter-cut, reused footage of the same street sequence, as shown by repeated presence of the same Cadillac and a Green Volkswagen Beetle. They drive downhill or north, towards the Bay, and turn west in front of the same Caddy, several blocks north of Van Ness. They turn left or south, going uphill. They then are headed north and turn from Larkin St. onto Francisco St. headed west. In the next scene the Dodge is going north, rounding Laguna onto Marina, having leaped six blocks. They turn from Laguna St., in front of Ft. Mason, onto Marina and in front of the Safeway. (The bottom of the stores name can be seen as the Dodge veers onto Marina.) They accelerate down Marina with the Marina Green and the Bay visible in the background. In the next cut, Ft. Mason is again visible in the background as they once again round the turn on Marina onto the Marina green. With the next cut they turn in front of the Safeway again. The next cut puts them eight miles away, back in the Vistacion Valley district, turning right from University St. on to Mansell St. From there they cut to Western entrance to Guadelupe Canyon Parkway on San Bruno Mountain in Daly City three miles away, heading East. To extend the length of the chase the cars are shown driving East then West and back and forth with each cut while supposedly heading only one way before the Charger crashes at the Parkways Eastern exit in Brisbane.
c.		The information on casualties didnt reach The War Department for quite a few weeks. Supposedly Ryans brothers casualty information arrived at D-Plus 3 . Most families were lucky to hear of wounded loved ones let alone KIA sixty days after it happened. This of course is a major device of the story but would never have happened so early in the invasion.
d.		A real New Orleans funeral home that has been converted into a "party space" was the inspiration for the film.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Dead Serious (2011)?
a.		One of over 700 Paramount Productions, filmed between 1929 and 1949, which were sold to MCA/Universal in 1958 for television distribution, and have been owned and controlled by Universal ever since.
b.		Writer Alan Donnes was inspired by a former funeral home in New Orleans that is now a "party space" and Halloween Haunted House. Donnes had attended funerals there previously.
c.		On the first day of principal photography, Wes Anderson delivered his directions to Bill Murray in a hushed whisper, so awed was he to be working with the actor. Graciously, Murray deferred publicly to Anderson, helped haul equipment and - when Disney denied a helicopter scene that would have cost $75,000 - he gave Anderson a blank check to cover the cost.
d.		The main ghost hunting investigation was filmed in an abandoned hospital in Central North Carolina. After wrapping filming at 4am in the morning, some of the actors that stayed on set to sleep some before the next mornings call time got scared so badly by sounds around the hospital that they packed up at 5:30am and drove almost an hour home just to drive back out there at 10am the next morning.
