Art of Cinema: 50 Hidden Movie Details Revealed – Part 7

In "Zootopia" (2016), Mr. Big, the mafia boss, is an Arctic shrew. Director Byron Howard made this choice because "the Arctic shrew is the most vicious predator on Earth." Arctic shrews eat three times their own body weight and even prey on other shrews.

In "Wind River" (2017), in one scene, Elizabeth Olsen takes the time to move an arm's distance away from the wall before aiming around the corner. This is a close-quarters battle tactic that presents less of your body to threats, widens your field of view, and ensures that neither you nor your gun extends beyond your cover.

In "Avengers: Endgame" (2019), as the opening scene unfolds and Hawkeye's family disappears due to Thanos' snap, the sound of the birds around them gets quieter and quieter. (Video in Source)

In "Thor" (2011), one of the Asgardians is played by Walt Simonson, who wrote the Thor comic book from 1983-1987.

Director Sam Raimi finds a way to include a 1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88 car in every film he makes. Uncle Ben drove this car in "Spider-Man" (2002).

In "A Bug's Life" (1999), the queen is seen to have a pet named "Aphie." In real life, this little bug is an aphid (also known as aphids), and they live in harmony with the ants, not as pets but as "livestock." Aphids provide ants with honeydew, and in return, they are protected and cared for.

Don and Dan Stanton, who are identical twins, played the guard and the T-1000 clone of the guard in "Terminator 2" (1991).

In the end credits of "Mr. Popper's Penguins" (2011), it is confirmed that while no penguins were harmed during the making of the movie, Jim Carrey was not so fortunate.

In "Beverly Hills Cop" (1984), Eddie Murphy's improvised story about "super cops" made John Ashton crack up so much that he had to pinch his face to hide his laughter.

In "Hot Fuzz" (2007), two of the 'village of the year' judges are played by the mothers of Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg.
