Ash: "I can't lie to you about your chances, but... you have my sympathies."
I'm so glad I got to see this masterpiece in theaters for its 45th anniversary re-release! I love this movie so much. I've seen it many times now, and it's probably my most watched horror movie ever (Scream is close). The blend of sci-fi and horror is perfect, and I love the slow build-up. Ridley Scott creates a ton of suspense with long shots and by…
Longlegs: "I'm sorry, it seems I wore my long legs today. What happens if I just..."
NEON created a phone number (458-666-4355) that plays a disturbing message from Nicolas Cage as Longlegs, and it still works. Oz Perkins requested that Nicolas Cage wouldn't be used on the posters or in the trailers despite him playing the titular character, so NEON had to come up with creative ways to promote and sell the movie without depending on Cage.

This is the first collaboration between Martin Scorsese and Al Pacino.

While driving around Al's Toy Barn, the gang drives down the Buzz Lightyear aisle. Tour Guide Barbie tells them, "Back in 1995, short-sighted retailers did not order enough dolls to meet demand." This is a reference to how, when the original Toy Story was released, toy sellers did not…
Robert De Niro first mentioned Martin Scorsese to Leonardo DiCaprio after working with him on This Boy's Life and being impressed by his talent. Scorsese took it seriously because De Niro rarely recommended other actors. Scorsese remembered this years later when casting Gangs of New York, which began his long collaboration with DiCaprio. This is the 7th collaboration between Scorsese and DiCaprio and the 11th between Scorsese and De Niro.…
Paul Atreides: “Lead them to paradise.”
Wow. Just wow. Austin Butler said he toned down his method acting to play Feyd-Rautha. "I've definitely in the past, with Elvis, explored living within that world for three years, and that is the only thing that I think about day and night. With Feyd, I knew that would be unhealthy for my family and friends. So I made a conscious decision to have a boundary. It allowed for more freedom between action and…
