1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Different Kinds (2007)?
a.		Columbia chief Harry Cohn had serious misgivings about this adaptation of Harry Segalls minor stage play. He preferred to reserve his more lavish budgets for surefire successes (i.e., anything featuring the studios biggest star, Rita Hayworth). However, Sidney Buchman was eventually able to talk Cohn into forking out for costly celestial sets and Farnsworths elaborate mansion and also into hiring Robert Montgomery on loan-out from MGM. Buchman was also able to convince Cohn that he had a better appreciation of what the public would pay to see than the Wall Street bankers who Cohn answered to.
b.		Quite a number of actors who appeared in the original Get Smart TV series did not appear in this movie even though many were still alive. Some of them appeared in later Get Smart movies such as Agent 99 Barbara Feldon in Get Smart, Again! and Siegfried Bernie Kopell in Get Smart.
c.		Eileen Agosta and Damon Martens were both working the graveyard shift during the films production. The film was shot on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, which meant they would often get off work early Wednesday morning and stay up all day preparing for the long weekend of shooting. Saturday night they would return to work on little to no sleep. This lasted for approximately three months straight during the summer.
d.		Credits on pressbook are different from screen credits in several respects. Credits noted by AFI follow pressbook credits, not actual screen credits.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Different Kinds (2007)?
a.		James Foley was offered the job of director by Princes management after seeing a rough cut of "Reckless". He said he was too busy and declined, but recommended his editor Albert Magnoli.
b.		When filming at the Tubac Golf Resort in the Arizona desert, the script called for a water hazard. Since there were none on the course the filmmakers built one and named it "Tin Cup Lake".
c.		On one Thursday evening shoot, SFX Makeup Artist Megan Lapp worked for sometime with actress Britt Rodemich to create a realistic looking broken nail for Thursday nights scenes. While shooting the very next night, Britt was knocked to the ground, actually ripping her own nail in the process.
d.		All the original music was written and recorded eight months prior to production.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Different Kinds (2007)?
a.		Robert Wises first color film.
b.		While Chris Borden, who stars as Jared, wears the same outfit for the majority of the film, he had the largest number of identical wardrobe and prop items. Throughout the shoot, Chris went through 9 white shirts, 12 square bandages, 3 sets of handcuffs and 2 guns.
c.		For the scene where Scorponok bursts out of the sand right on the heels of the soldiers, the effect was achieved by detonating a primer cord under the sand. The explosions would be in close proximity and very dangerous to the actors in the scene, so before the scene was shot, Michael Bay told the actors to run and keep running no matter what happens or else they could seriously be injured or, even worse, killed. As a result, the look of panic on the actors faces as they flee from Scorponok in this scene is 100% genuine.
d.		The catamaran that Thomas Crown is seen racing in Long Island Sound is a D-Type Catamaran. The earliest Class D catamarans were designed and built by individual amateur designers as early as 1963. Richard Karcher, Watchung, NJ built either USD#1 or #2 at the time. His "D" boats were sailed on Barnegat Bay in New Jersey for several years on an experimental basis. Richard also designed and manufactured several other types limited production catamarans at the time, one of which was considered as the official Olympic Class Catamaran and participated in the trial in England. Due to the vast amount of power that this design represented, no "production" versions were ever produced and interest and research into this Class waned. Years later in the 1980s interest in this extremely fast and highly unstable yacht design was revived by California based aeronautical engineers who tried to break inshore multi-hull speed records. Today there are only a handful of them left in the world.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Different Kinds (2007)?
a.		Linda Woolverton drew her inspiration for the screenplay, not from Jean Cocteaus La belle et la bête, but from Little Women, admitting that theres a lot of Katharine Hepburn in the characterization of Belle.
b.		Many of the second season characters (Stunticons, Aerialbots, etc.) do not appear in the movie because they did not exist at the time the movie was written. However, they all suddenly appear in the post-movie episodes.
c.		Production was shut down for six months when William Holden contracted salmonella, and the film had to be finished in Hollywood.
d.		The producers had not originally intended on calling the final version of the film "Different Kinds." The cast and crew got so used to referring to it with the working title throughout the four-month shoot, however, that it eventually stuck.

5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Different Kinds (2007)?
a.		"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on June 5, 1950 with Robert Young and Claudette Colbert reprising their film roles.
b.		While the majority of the film was shot out of sequence, as is the norm with most film sets, the final scenes of Different Kinds happened to be shot last on the final weekend of shooting. The final shot from the final day of shooting also serves as the final shot of the film.
c.		The scene where Newman (Tom Wood) is killed was edited two ways: one way which showed Royce (Robert Downey Jr.) shooting him, the other which kept it ambiguous as to whether it was Royce or Sheridan (Wesley Snipes) who shot him. The film was previewed both ways, but audiences much preferred the version which showed Royce as the killer.
d.		When Wayne is interviewing the sponsor, played by Brian Doyle-Murray, he writes on the back of his index card, "This man has no penis". This may be an in-joke alluding to Ghost Busters, when Bill Murray (brother of Brian Doyle-Murray) says "This man has no dick".

6.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Different Kinds (2007)?
a.		"Different Kinds" was shot over four months in a total of seventeen shooting days, accumulating over 23 hours of footage. The final runtime of the film is expected to be just under 2 hours.
b.		The "diamonds" used for the scenes during the climax of the movie were actually Herkimer Diamonds borrowed from the Herkimer Diamond Mines of Middleville, New York. They are doubly-terminated (two-ended) quartz crystals that are found in only two places in the world. They were the only gems that would look enough like diamonds and be that large.
c.		One of a package of four films Boris Karloff made as co-productions between Columbia Pictures and Mexicos Azteca Films, though after Karloffs death Columbia sold off their share to a distributor called Horror International.

b.		This is one of a handful of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer productions of the 1950-1951 period whose original copyrights were never renewed and are now apparently in Public Domain; for this reason this title is now offered, often in very inferior copies, at bargain prices, by numerous VHS and DVD distributors who do not normally handle copyrighted or Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer material.

d.		The car Natalie and Kate drive on their road trip in the film, a white 1998 Chevy Malibu, belongs to writer-director Eileen Agosta. With well over 115,000 miles on her and the signs of aging already becoming apparent before shooting even began, the production was quite rough on Eileens poor car. In one of the films more climactic scenes, which called for actor Chris Borden to start the car and drive away, the Malibu stalled on every take.

After she read from the script with Chris Borden during a callback session, the director ran through the script and modified all of the gender-specific pronouns. Not a single line of Sals was changed.
c.		The tattoo on Deans upper left arm is from the book The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein. It is a book about giving and sacrificing everything for another.
