New Film Facts

Post by The Fox »

I've just received an original Production Handbook from Paramount and it has some pretty interesting facts.

Cleon was Killed :(

Vermin died in the original script!

The film took 60 days to shoot!

I'll post more as i find them out.

I thought the riffs would have wanted cleon alive. It would have sucked if Vermin was killed.

It doesn't say. The script probably changed when Fox walked off the set!

I'll bet Vermin was originally supposed to get japped by the Lizzies. He seemed pretty vulnerable there.

Or maybe Vermin was supposed to get Squished by the train :P

But the Lizzie Japping sounds more realistic :P

Sweet, The movie only took 60 days to shoot. Thats Crazy, but that does kind of give reason to all of the errors in the movie, but that could also be due to poor editing.

You need to take your own advice, fella.  :x Look at the dates of the posts at the top of this thread. They were all written BEFORE the script was available to read on the main site...

Now bow down to my amazing greatness!  :D
Hold your tongue...

Just who in the hell do you think you are talking to? Fox is being kind enough to share the info, he has been here long enough to know about the script. He got the booklet and he is quoting from it. Oh and J, no need to apologize man, if you wanna dig posts you made forty years ago.....you go right ahead, screw this joker!

I didn't bring this thread up after 2 years. Somebody else did. I only posted on it again because i didn't like the tone of your original post!
