She would later go on to star in the ABC sitcom Just the Ten of Us, a program which not only featured numerous references to the "Nightmare on Elm Street" franchise, but also co-starred Heather Langenkamp (from the first, third, and seventh films) and Brooke Theiss (from the fourth film).

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009)?
a.		According to Brian Goldner, the writers took their inspiration mostly from Larry Hamas G.I. Joe comics, and not the G.I. Joe animated series. Lorenzo di Bonaventura admits he feels the Cobra Organization, as depicted in the cartoon, was "probably the stupidest evil organization out there!"

The use of African-American players might have compromised the historical accuracy of the film since no African-American players were known to have played Major League baseball until 1947 - the year Jackie Robinson broke in with the Brooklyn Dodgers.

As much as Shoeless Joe was banned from Baseball, many African American players never got a chance simply because of their ethnicity.

"Deep Throat is not necessarily recommended for everyone," Collins said, "Its a quite badly made film, but to deny its influence would be pure snobbery."
c.		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.
