Gary Oldman played Zorg? Mind blown.
...oh shit, it never clicked till now that Milla Jovovich is 'The Fifth Element'. I guess I never played that much attention to the film. :/

Was watching Eternal Sunshine last night, and there's a lot of little things:
-In the beginning of the movie, he still has the marker on his right temple.
-When he meets her for the first time (second chronologically), he doesn't know what Huckleberry Hound is. This is because they were hiding out in his memory where his mother is bathing him while singing that song. Or, talking about it the first time they met, I suppose.
-The lighting for the first half of the dream is supposed to be similar to the lighting from Clementine's flashlight when they fuck around in the abandoned house.
-I don't know how I missed this the first few times. When he is last saying goodbye to her in the house (in his dreams), she whispers for him to meet her at that train station. Which is why he impulsively runs away from work. Not sure why she would also know to go there, though...

Again, this.
The blog when I first read about it.
I loved the movie, but after reading that I loved it more, it has a lot of tiny nice details, it really is a french comic brought to life.
In the "hidden" narrative, R. Lee Ermey's character is never shot, it's all in Pyle's head (hence the dreamlike atmosphere and sounds). It represents Pyle making the transformation from an innocent child to a hardened killing machine.
No problem, man.

More specifically, Verhoeven calls it his "American Jesus."

im BTTF the musicians are hotboxing some fine cheeba in the car outside the school.
Hey hey we ain't messin' with no reefer addicts!
This thread has given my brain fellatio. Well done.
Caught a bunch of these on first viewings, specifically Twin Pines/Lone Pine mall in BTTF and Sid being the garbage man in Toy Story 3.
The Eastwood Ravine in BTTF3 caught me off guard. Brilliant stuff. Same with the goons swapping clothes in The Big Lebowski.
Might already be known, but Lotso from Toy Story 3 was in Up.

My mind is blown by the amount of people who didn't notice the Lone Pine Mall thing.
There's more amazing kids than you realize.

A lot of Pixar movies have early bird cameos and clues for their future releases.

Syndrome in Finding Nemo.
Doc Hudson in The Incredibles.
Dug in Ratatouille.

Intersting read. Thanks for that. It's funny the things from that movie I still say to this day. "Chicken good!"

I don't think the kids were particularly amazing.

I'll use spoiler tags because I hate when people spoil movies I haven't seen, even twenty-year-old ones:
In Silence of the Lambs when Dr. Lecter
By the way, in the book
In Silence of the Lambs when Dr. Lecter
escapes by wearing the guard's face as a mask, I knew what was coming because I'd read the book. However, I only recently made the connection that Buffalo Bill's modus operandi was removing people's skins and wearing them (like the woman's hair and scalp he wore for his dance) and that Lecter essentially borrowed a page from Buffalo Bill's book in order to effect his escape. Of course, that may have been obvious to everyone else.
By the way, in the book
the escape was made even more plausible by the fact that Lector really savaged the face, nearly turning it into hamburger and leaving one ripped-out eyeball on the cheek, so that the other cops could barely look at it as they put him on the gurney.
An amazing one for me in that movie is the fact that I am indirectly watching the sun rising when they are trying to escape from the farm. That blows me away with either the timing or the effects to pull that off. The scene is so exciting, that always gets put on the backburner.
Disney one that may not have been mentioned. Beast in Aladdin
Plus Doc Brown had already dropped a hint that should have caused you to pay close attention when he said something along the lines of "he always had a crazy idea about growing a pine tree farm".

There's no picture of it, and I'm not sure if it has been mentioned but:
In Lord of the Rings: Return of the King, Aragorn sees a vision of the King of the Dead in the path into the mountains before he goes. You have to watch the path when he looks over for a brief instant to see the King of the Dead, but for the first 5-10 times I watched the film I didn't notice it. Maybe it was just me that didn't notice.

Nah, it's cooler if he's stopping it with the force and because he's that much of a badass, not because of some piece of armour that anyone could pickup and wear.
Also, if you watch the movie, he blocks the blasters with BOTH HANDS and according to that Star Wars wiki, there was only 1 glove, which Luke Skywalker chopped off during their duel in ROTJ.
So yeah he blocked the blaster bolts with a combination of the force and pure badassery.
Could you post a gif of it?

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
It's not just a time machine, it's the time machine, the one from the 1960 movie. I thought that version of The Time Machine was pretty cool when I was a kid, but I haven't seen it for a long-ass time.
That's pretty dumb. And it seems to be a retcon, because Luke appears to get shot twice in the back by an AT-AT in Dark Empire, and block it with a force field. (hurr, punnage)
Roger Moore Bond also visited the grave of George Lazenby Bond's wife in For Your Eyes Only.

In Aliens, when Vasquez says, "Hey man, all I need to know is one thing...where...they...are.", watch Hicks over her shoulder. He mouths it along with her and sighs afterward to show that she drops this line all the time and he's heard it all before.

Love that line, but when I played Rome: Total War I learned that was stolen from the Spartans:

The Spartans do not ask how many but where they are - Agis II of Sparta

Kid's either just fooling around on camera or he's been told to give a stagehand directions for the train prop.

I know it's from 9gag, but the alternative was to make a picture myself and I'm way too lazy for that.
