It's not all big stars and big name directors. There is a huge team of people that make them possible. If you ever go to the movies with me, you'll know that I insist we stay until the end of the credits as a small show of appreciation to all those that worked on the film. As a nod to those folks behind the scenes, I've compiled a list of fun and hidden facts behind some of my favorite movies.
1. Most of the voices for Gru’s minions in Despicable Me, are actually the film’s directors Chris Renaud and Pierre Coffin.
2. “Bruce.” was the nickname given to the mechanical shark in the movie Jaws by Steven Spielberg.
3. In the movie Return of the Living Dead, Freddy wears a jacket that says "F*ck You" on the back, but in the television version of the film the jacket simply reads "TV Version".
4. The word zombie is never used in Night of the Living Dead.
5. Because at the time of filming it was not believed audiences would guess a female could be the lone survivor in Alien, Ripley (Sigourney Weaver's character) was changed from a male to a female.
6. Psycho was the first American film to show a toilet flushing on screen.
7. The "Whilhelm Scream" is a sound effect used in over 200 movies and TV shows since 1951.
