2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Tarzan, the Ape Man (1981)?

At the request of the Chicago Police Department, Drago, wearing his costume and armed with his prop tommy gun, went to the place where the fight was supposed to happen.

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: Tarzan, the Ape Man (1981)?
a.		When the alarm goes off and police helicopters hover over Dave Whitmans (Richard Dreyfuss) house, his son runs out of the house with a video camera and says, "Close encounters of the fourth kind, take one," a reference to Close Encounters of the Third Kind, starring Richard Dreyfuss.
b.		Kurt Russell and Mickey Rourke are among the actors that auditioned for Bill.
c.		Lee Canalito, originally cast as Tarzan, was replaced by Miles OKeeffe at the last minute. Reportedly, this was because producer Bo Derek allegedly thought that Canalito was not in the right physical shape.
d.		There are many scenes from the trailer that do not appear in the film. 0:07 - Talking with Larrys mother. 0:11 - Larry in a jumpsuit, walking toward man in car. Ricki and Brian watch from other car. 0:17 - Larry talks more with his mother. 0:27 - Brian making noises with a straw in a diner. 1:46 - Ricki in car, in a driving scene not present in film. 2:03 - Ricki and Larry are at some kind of junkyard it seems. 2:06 - Larry and Brian at a diner, talking to one another. 2:10 - Larry putting his hands in his palm, looking kinda sad. 2:12 - More junkyard footage, not to mention Larry mentioning a confession to Ricki in a diner scene not present in the film. 2:16 - Ricki walking away from Larry, looking sad. She has a backpack over her shoulder. 2:21 - More junkyard footage. This all ties into the rumor that Martin Brest had an original, much more dark and violent 160 minute version of the film. It has been claimed that this cut had Larry being killed at the end by Christopher Walkens character. However, with the tabloid craze of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, the studio forced director Brest into deleting almost 40 minutes of footage and re-writing / re-shooting many sequences to make it a romantic comedy. Unfortunately, there is no news if this original cut will ever be released on DVD.

a.		During a scene involving Jane attempting to get away from Tarzan, Miles OKeeffe found himself face to face with a full grown lion, who took on the part of the gallant gentleman saving the damsel in distress. The lion, escaping his holding pen, dived into the fray, apparently more intent on protecting Bo Derek than attacking Miles OKeeffe (it was noted that the 200 pound man wasnt injured by the 500 pound cat). The handler was on the scene almost immediately, stopping the incident. Although neither human star were injured, rumor had it that Miles OKeeffe thereafter made a habit of checking the security of the holding pen whenever other scenes of "violence" toward Bo Derek were done, citing a deep respect for Bo Dereks formidable self-appointed bodyguard.
b.		In the scene at the airport, where the President is answering questions about his friend (using Jack Ryans advice to say that he and his friend were very close), you see a pack of media approaching the President.

Jamie Lascano is only seen at the party unceremoniously unconscious on the couch, and Teddy Hanssen is nowhere to be found (although on 1-18-08.com, he is now identified as "missing"). The actors who play either of the two are not confirmed. Though it has been speculated that Jamie is played by Blake Lively, this is incorrect.

When filming, Mark Famiglietti, who plays Scott, had to wear large platform shoes because Kristanna Loken is significantly taller than he is.
b.		Jack Frost is seen wearing a black and white outfit with a pale and white look, referring to Jack Skellington from the The Nightmare Before Christmas, another character who believed that he could take over for Santa Claus. In the trailer, the tracks "Whats This" and "Making Christmas" from that film are heard in the background.
