About the movie: An urbane fox cannot resist returning to his farm raiding ways and then must help his community survive the farmers' retaliation.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?
a.		Director Ken Kwapis never used the traditional phrase "Action!" to begin the actors performance on set. Instead he said, "Quiet, please, and um, uh, ghead." This method was much more relaxed and allowed the actors to begin at their own pace. However, he did get teased about it - someone even printed up bright orange T-shirts quoting him and handed them out to the crew.
b.		Shelley Winters first film.
c.		According to Meryl Streep, when she was in London filming Mamma Mia! in summer 2007, she stayed in an apartment block in central London, and one night she noticed a fox out of her bathroom window. Both Streep and the fox, stone still, stared at each other for twelve minutes. Mesmerized by this experience, she used it as inspiration for her performance.
d.		The race was actually a relay and consisted of around 20 sleds.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?
a.		The color scheme of the movie is primarily autumnal (yellows, oranges, and browns) with virtually no green and blue. However, Kristoffersons blue-colored wardrobe was intentional, as it emphasized his being a visiting outsider.
b.		Corey Haim was originally set to play James and also co-direct this film when he passed away suddenly in March 2010. His longtime friend Keith Coogan was cast as James soon after.
c.		Penny Lane asks William if hed like to go to Morocco with her. He says, "Yes... ask me again." According to director Cameron Crowe, "ask me again" was Patrick Fugit stepping out of character and asking Kate Hudson to repeat her lines for another take. But Crowe liked the take as-is and kept it in the final cut.
d.		Young filmmaker Jack Gregson appears in the audience during the auditorium scenes.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?
a.		Throughout the film, the word "cuss" is used in place of actual cursing. When asked about its origin in a radio interview on "Fresh Air" with Terry Gross, Wes Anderson said, "I dont even remember. It think it was just to use the concept of profanity as a replacement for profanity itself. It turned out to be very versatile." In keeping with this theme, one of the buildings seen in the film bears "CUSS" written as spray-painted graffiti.
b.		In the part of the film where Hoffa (Jack Nicholson), Bobby (Danny DeVito), and Delasandro (Armand Assante)have their meeting out in the woods. The scene begins with Bobby sitting in a woody wagon and placing an empty beer bottle on a post before driving down to meet Hoffa. In a scene that followed, but was cut, Bobby gave Delasandro a hunting rifle. Delasandro then tried and failed to shoot the beer bottle off of the post. Hoffa then shoots the bottle off in one shot, upstaging Delasandro.
c.		A Jewel Production. Universal, lacking a theater chain, utilized a 3-tiered brand system to sell its product through 1929: Red Feather (low budget), Bluebird (mainstream) and Jewel (prestige productions, designed to draw higher roadshow ticket prices).
d.		Doris Day did not want to do this film. The character of Lyle Benton was painfully reminiscent of her first two husbands, Al Jorden and George Weidler.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?
a.		The titles are shown over what seems to be a 3 dimensional background because it is. The Fleischer studio pioneered the idea of building models and filming them rather than drawing background plates. They did this several times in the "Popeye" cartoons.
b.		Alfred Lord Tennysons poem, "Enoch Arden," about a fisherman presumed lost at sea who returns to find his wife remarried, was the basis of five prior films: Enoch Arden, Die Toten kehren wieder - Enoch Arden, and D.W. Griffiths Enoch Arden: Part I, Enoch Arden: Part II, and Enoch Arden. Those films adhered to Tennysons poem. But in My Favorite Wife, Somethings Got to Give, and Move Over, Darling, only the basic idea of a spouse who returns is kept, with the spouse presumed lost now being the wife. However, in all of these films, the surname of the couple in question remains "Arden."
c.		No director at Paramount wanted to be the first to tackle sound so studio sound "expert" Roy Pomeroy was enlisted, under the guidance of William de Mille. Like most early talkies, this was a huge hit.
d.		The titles and text used in the production design are in Helvetica Bold. All previous Wes Anderson movies have utilized Futura Bold.

In the scene where Tyler is giving an inspirational speech to the Fight Club members, he says "Weve all been raised on television to believe that one day wed all be millionaires and movie gods and rock stars."

c.		The director shot this film in his early-20s from a script he wrote as a 14-year-old freshman in high school.
d.		In the scene on the porch where Bobby first reads the newspaper to Ted who asks him "Have you kissed her (Carol Gerber) yet?", Scott Hicks points out (commentary at 24:29) that the shot at the end of the scene, a close up of Bobby over Teds shoulder in which Anthony Hopkins ad-libbed the line "But you will kiss her" was included during editing because of Anton Yelchins response: a glance up with wide eyes with his right eye quickly narrowing to a glare (at 24:34).

6.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?

b.		When Robert comes face-to-face with Arthur Leigh Allen in the hardware store, the music playing is Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty. As this is Roberts "Sherlock Holmes" moment, this can hardly be coincidental.

8.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?
a.		This film won a development battle with a similar viral-outbreak thriller project at 20th Century Fox called "Crisis in the Hot Zone". That project was going to star Robert Redford and Jodie Foster, but ran into script problems that threw it off stride. When producer Arnold Kopleson hired Ted Tally to work on his script, he liked the results so much that he immediately sent it out to Harrison Ford; Ford declined, but then Dustin Hoffman and Wolfgang Petersen signed on to star and direct, and Warner Brothers green-lit the film for a 1995 release.
b.		Steve Caballero was the stunt double for Radster.

9.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)?

Patton quote about "the purple-pissin Japanese", a quote which Hanssen was fond of repeating. The FBI had paid a Russian agent $7 million for the KGBs file on the American mole - known to the KGB at the time only as Ramon Garcia. The file included a note of the mole about "purple-pissing Japanese" and Robert Hanssen became the prime suspect in the investigation. The FBI arrested Hanssen three months after receiving the file. The film concerns the last two months of the investigation.

c.		In a deleted scene, Tom dreams of shooting Carl Fogarty in the diner, but the scene was cut because David Cronenberg thought it was too reminiscent of the directors own previous Videodrome. In the scene, Fogarty, his chest blown open by a shotgun, the exposed ends of ribs smoking, nonetheless rises from the floor and aims a handgun at Tom. Along with the deleted scene, the director and crew joke that Fogarty should pull the gun out of his gaping abdomen, an "homage" by the director to himself and to "Videodrome".

d.		WALL·E, as a character, is a possible example of the Ship of Theseus Paradox. Its hinted that every single piece of the original WALL·E has been replaced by himself prior the story. This could be confirmed if it was made obvious the chip replaced by Eve at the end of the film contains WALL·Es personality, although the only thing we we know for a fact is it controls his power system.
