Famous trivia from Hollywood movie : The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977)

This quiz will test your movies knowledge by asking you questions related to the various famous movie trivia from the Hollywood movie: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977).

About the movie: A troubled, rebellious teen drives his rambunctious baseball team out to Houston where they play an exhibition game and the boy meets his estranged father, and hires him as the teams coach.

1.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977)?
a.		The baseball field where the Bears are training is in real life, Bayland Park off Bissonnet in Southwest Houston. During the baseball training scenes, there is an advertisement for Discount Trophies (off South Post Oak), which went out of business in 1993.
b.		The character of Joe Gillis was very much in tune with William Holdens standing at the time. When he appeared in the 1939 film Golden Boy, he was hailed as exactly that, but had seen his stock fall, largely through his problems with alcohol and a string of unmemorable films in the 1940s. On the basis of this film and largely out of his continuing association with director Billy Wilder, Holden would reach the zenith of his career from 1950-57.
c.		The first sequel in the Saw franchise to not open in first place on opening weekend at the US box office.
d.		The song Be Our Guest was originally supposed to be sung to Maurice instead of Belle, but Bruce Woodside pointed out that the song was in the wrong place because Maurice was not the focus of the story, and it made no sense to waste such a wonderful song on a secondary character.

2.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977)?
a.		The climactic battle in the film used three different styles of martial arts: karate, ninjitsu and sword fighting.
b.		The cab seen taking Joes steamer trunks to the sailboat belongs to Hawaii Congressman Neil Abercrombie who is famous for driving a refurbished plantation-era taxi. The graphic on the side of cab is that of the congressman - and is a small nod to the island residents of Hawaii where some of the movie was filmed.
c.		Wade Dominguez died after filming was completed. The film is dedicated to his memory.
d.		The factory where Kelly Leak locates his father is located on Old Galveston Road south of Loop 610 west of Pasadena, Texas. In the film, the facility is the former location of Texas Pipe and Supply (now the Boccard Pipe and Supply company).

3.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977)?
a.		When John and Carol are sitting at the red light, the car full of girls pulls up next to them, one of the girls throws a water balloon through the window and it hits Carol (Mackenzie Phillips). It was scripted to hit the side window and drench Phillips face, who was then supposed to act really angry. However, she was accidentally hit square in the face and unable to refrain from laughing. Still, she kept going, ad-libbed through the scene and Lucas kept it, as he did with many presumably garbled first takes in this movie.
b.		In An Audience with Peter Ustinov, Ustinov recalled that he had been attached to the role of Nero for over a year before filming began. During this time he received a memo from the producers, informing him that they still wanted him for the part, but were concerned that he was too young. Ustinov replied that Nero died when he was 31; if they waited much longer, he would be too old for the part. He then received a reply, which he said he had kept and treasured. The reply stated: "Historical research has proved you correct."
c.		Gary Lee Cavagnaro played Engleburg in the original The Bad News Bears. By the time it came to film The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training, he had grown about 4 inches and lost a tremendous amount of weight. Since he no longer looked like his character, the part had to be recast.
d.		In William Blakes "Great Red Dragon" series of paintings, there are two with very similar names. The novel "Red Dragon," by Thomas Harris, uses the title of one painting ("The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed with the Sun"), but in describing the image, gives a description of another ("The Great Red Dragon and the Woman Clothed in the Sun"). Due to the muddled reference, the first adaptation of the the novel, Manhunter (dir: Michael Mann), Francis Dolarhyde is obsessed with the painting that Harris cites by name, while this film features the painting as described by Harris, which is a back view of the dragon with his tail wrapped around the woman.

4.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977)?
a.		Melanie Ackland (Ellie) is Joss Acklands daughter.
b.		The fourth of seven Cheech and Chong movies starring the comedy duo Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong.
c.		The playboy magazine that Carmen gets is the February 1977 issue.
d.		Shortly before the barracks scene, Keith David fell off of a seven foot railing outside the building while the actors were between shots, breaking two ribs and cracking two vertebra. He when on to film the scene in great pain and then went to the hospital afterwards.

5.	Which of the following famous movie trivia, is related to the Hollywood movie: The Bad News Bears in Breaking Training (1977)?
a.		Vitaphone production reels #4013-4021.
b.		During the game at the Astrodome, a Toros player comments that Jimmy Feldman looks like "one of the Marx Brothers". Brett Marx, who plays Jimmy, is the grandson of Gummo Marx, a brother of the Marx Brothers.
c.		One of the Mosquitoes seen in the film (number TA639) is on show in the permanent collection of World War II aircraft at the RAF Museum at Cosford in Shropshire, UK.
d.		The IND Hoyt-Schermerhorn station in Brooklyn was used in the scene where Garber enters the tunnel to deliver the ransom money.
