Plot Outline: Martine offers Terry a lead on a foolproof bank hit on Londons Baker Street. She targets a roomful of safe deposit boxes worth millions in cash and jewelry. But Terry and his crew dont realize the boxes also contain a treasure trove of dirty secrets – secrets that will thrust them into a deadly web of corruption and illicit scandal.
Plot: Business is slow for Terry Leather, a London car dealer, married with children. Hes an artful dodger, so Martine, a former model with a thing for him, brings him her scheme: a banks alarm is off for a couple weeks, so lets tunnel into the vault. He assembles a team, not realizing her real goal is a safe-deposit box with compromising photos of a royal: she needs the photos to trade for avoiding a jail sentence – and M-5, or is it M-6, is pulling the strings two steps removed. A Trinidadian thug, a high-end bordello owner, and a pornographer also have things stored in the vault, so the break-in threatens many a powerful personage. Is there any way these amateurs can pull it off?

Crazy Credits: We know about 1 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
The ending credits are presented in the same typeface as Professor Umbridges numerous educational decrees.

Goofs: We know about 13 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Anachronisms: Although the film is set in 1971, signs on various shop doors seen in the film advertise that credit cards “Visa” and “Mastercard” are accepted. The name “Visa” was not used for the charge card before 1977 (replacing Barclaycard in the UK); “Mastercard” was “Master Charge” until 1979.

Trivia: There are 3 entries in the trivia list – like these:

Aldwych station was chosen to film the underground scenes because the true Tottenham Court Road station had been modified extensively in the early 1980s. Only Edgware Road still has any resemblance to its original look.

Roger Donaldson said one of the most difficult days of filming was when he filmed the brothel scene. The scene called for the women to be walking around wearing only garters. However, Donaldson said that when he went to film the scene he discovered that most of the women shaved their genitals, which would have been anachronistic for 1971. So the actresses had to wear pubic wigs called “merkins.” This caused a problem because the merkins were hard to secure in place and kept slipping, causing Donaldson much aggravation.

SPOILER: In its edition of February 16, 2008 The Daily Mail newspaper reported “The four men caught, charged and convicted of the raid went to jail without ever having their names mentioned in the press, and to this day their identities and the circumstances of their capture remain secret. Even the lengths of their sentences are still shrouded in mystery.”

Plot: Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vega are two hitmen who are out to retrieve a suitcase stolen from their employer, mob boss Marsellus Wallace. Wallace has also asked Vincent to take his wife Mia out a few days later when Wallace himself will be out of town. Butch Coolidge is an aging boxer who is paid by Wallace to lose his next fight. The lives of these seemingly unrelated people are woven together comprising of a series of funny, bizarre and uncalled-for incidents.

Goofs: We know about 66 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Several differences in the two times we see Honey Bunny pull the gun in the restaurant can be attributed to seeing the scene through Jules eyes the second time.

Trivia: There are 105 entries in the trivia list – like these:

Quentin Tarantino hesitated over the choice between the character he was going to play: Jimmie or Lance. He ended up choosing Jimmies role because he wanted to be behind the camera in Mias overdose scene.

Quentin Tarantino wrote the role of Jules specifically for Samuel L. Jackson, however it was almost given to Paul Calderon after a great audition. When Jackson heard this, he flew to Los Angeles and auditioned again to secure the role. Calderon ended up with a small role as Paul.

The passage from the Bible that Jules has memorized was mostly made up by Quentin Tarantino and Samuel L. Jackson. The only part thats similar to what the Bible says is the part where he says, “And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger. And you will know My name is the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon thee.” However, the parts about the righteous man and the shepherd are not real.

Plot Outline: Violence and mayhem ensue after a hunter stumbles upon some dead bodies, a stash of heroin and more than $2 million in cash near the Rio Grande.
Plot: In rural Texas, welder and hunter Llewelyn Moss discovers the remains of several drug runners who have all killed each other in an exchange gone violently wrong. Rather than report the discovery to the police, Moss decides to simply take the two million dollars present for himself. This puts the psychopathic killer, Anton Chigurh, on his trail as he dispassionately murders nearly every rival, bystander and even employer in his pursuit of his quarry and the money. As Moss desperately attempts to keep one step ahead, the blood from this hunt begins to flow behind him with relentlessly growing intensity as Chigurh closes in. Meanwhile, the laconic Sherrif Ed Tom Bell blithely oversees the investigation even as he struggles to face the sheer enormity of the crimes he is attempting to thwart.

Crazy Credits: We know about 3 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
There are no opening credits at all, save the Universal logo, so the title of the film, “The Mummy Returns” does not appear until well into the end credits.

Goofs: We know about 38 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Anachronisms: When Bell responds to the hotel shooting, a modern Carls Jr restaurant is seen in the background over his shoulder. Furthermore, Carls Jr. was not operating in El Paso in 1980. In addition, when he is driving to the motel, as he first hears the shots, a modern day Wendys sign is seen behind him.

Trivia: There are 25 entries in the trivia list – like these:

Heath Ledger had been in talks to play Llewelyn Moss, but withdrew to take “some time off” instead.

“No Country for Old Men”, the title of the novel the film is based on, is part of the first line from W.B. Yeats poem, “Sailing to Byzantium”. The full line is “That is no country for old men”.

For mostly budgetary reasons, the film was shot mostly in Las Vegas, New Mexico. Tommy Lee Jones convinced the Coen Brothers to film some scenes on location in West Texas.

Plot Outline: A like-able Miami police forensics expert moonlights as a serial killer of criminals who he believes have escaped justice.
Plot: During the day, Dexter Morgan is a jovial employee in the Miami Metropolitan Police Departments crime lab, but his meticulously crafted life masks his true nature. In reality Dexter is a disciplined and murderous psychopath (a self-admitted “monster”), and he slakes his blood lust at night by carefully killing the serial killers he tracks down during the day. Based on the novels (Darkly Dreaming Dexter, Dearly Devoted Dexter and Dexter in the Dark) by Jeff Lindsay.

Revealing mistakes: Although the show is set in Scranton, Pennsylvania, every episode set outside during the winter features an unrealistically warm climate.

Some of these include: no visible breath, no snow, full lawns and trees covered with green leaves.

Plot Outline: Two boys growing up in a violent neighborhood of Rio de Janeiro take different paths: one becomes a photographer, the other a drug dealer.
Plot: Cidade de Deus (City of God) is a housing project built in the 1960s that–in the early 80s–became one of the most dangerous places in Rio de Janeiro. The tale tells the stories of many characters whose lives sometimes intersect. However, all is seen through the eyes of a singular narrator: Buscapй, a poor black youth too frail and scared to become an outlaw but also too smart to be content with underpaid, menial jobs. He grows up in a very violent environment. The odds are all against him. But Buscapй soon discovers that he can see reality differently than others. His redemption is that hes been given an artists point of view as a keen-eyed photographer. As Buscapй is not the real protagonist of the film–only the narrator–he is not the one who makes the decisions that will determine the sequence of events. Nevertheless, not only his life is attached to what happens in the story, but it is also through Buscapйs perspective of life that one can understand the complicated layers and humanity of a world, apparently condemned to endless violence.

Crazy Credits: We know about 3 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
There are no actor credits in the opening credits.

Goofs: We know about 10 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Revealing mistakes: When Knockout Ned is yelling over the dead boy, the body is breathing.

Trivia: There are 25 entries in the trivia list – like these:

All of the amateur actors were recruited from favelas (slums) in Rio de Janeiro, and a couple of them – eg. Buscapй/Rocket (Alexandre Rodrigues) – actually lived in the Cidade de Deus (City of God) itself.

When Knockout Ned (Manй Galinha in the Brazilian original) kills someone for the first time, some people who live in the City of God approach him and congratulate him for the killing. The first woman to talk to him was played by the mother of the real Knockout Ned.

The director was once quoted as saying that if he knew the dangers of filming the movie in a Rio favela, he wouldnt have done the movie.

Plot Outline: A man, suffering from short-term memory loss, uses notes and tattoos to hunt for the man he thinks killed his wife.
Plot: Memento chronicles two separate stories of Leonard, an ex-insurance investigator who can no longer build new memories, as he attempts to find the murderer of his wife, which is the last thing he remembers. One story line movies forward in time while the other tells the story backwards revealing more each time.

Crazy Credits: We know about 3 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
Just as the credits are about to start, a flash-frame-shot of a penis appears on the screen.

Goofs: We know about 24 goofs. Here comes one of them:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: Leonard is able to remember that he has a problem with his memory because he has conditioned himself to look at his “Remember Sammy Jankis” tattoo. Similarly he has conditioned himself to check his pockets for Polaroids to remind himself of other essential day-to-day facts. Alternatively, it could be because Leonard has Korsakovs syndrome, sometimes caused by acute trauma. In some cases the patient knows that they have the disorder. Arguments have been presented both for and against this but, in the end, its the reality that the movie presents us with and so, for 113 minutes at least, its true.

Trivia: There are 19 entries in the trivia list – like these:

The movie was filmed in Southern California, in and around the Sunland/Tujunga area. Other driving scenes were filmed in Burbank on Victory Blvd.

The film took 25 days to shoot.

Teddys phone number, 555-0134, is the same as Marla Singers number in Fight Club (1999). It is also the same as the Hong Kong Restaurant in Harriet the Spy (1996), Eddie Aldens in Someone Like You… (2001) and a Mental institution in an episode of "Millennium" (1996/I).

Plot: Two just-graduated officers from Massachusetts State Police Academy follow opposite sides of the law: William Costigan is assigned to work undercover with the Irish mobster Frank Costello to get evidences to arrest him. His true identity is only known by his superiors Dignam and Oliver Queenan. The protйgйe of Costello, Colin Sullivan, is promoted in the Massachusetts State Police and is the informer of Costello.

Trivia: There are 47 entries in the trivia list – like these:

Martin Scorsese wanted to shoot the film in Boston, where the story is set. But due to concerns on setting up production and politics, the producers chose New York City to double for Boston because of the states 15% tax credit. The bulk of the movie was shot in New York City while a six week shooting schedule was split in two for Boston, shooting the first half in June and the second half in August. After the success of this film, Massachusetts created a 25% tax credit for filmmaking.

As of 2007, this film had the highest grossing box-office opening and the highest total box-office gross in Martin Scorseses career.

A possible reason why Leonardo DiCaprio did not receive an Oscar nomination for his performance in this movie was because the Warner Bros. studio initially did not want to favor DiCaprio over his co-stars and place him in the leading actor category. The studio favored DiCaprios leading performance in Blood Diamond (2006) (which eventually got him a nomination). DiCaprio himself refused to campaign against his male co-stars in the supporting actor category, so Warner bought no supporting actor ads for DiCaprio, and he did not receive a nomination.
