| Posted: | | | | Just what I was thinking. But I'm glad we have Muckl around to fix it for us Just one question. Sometimes I get trivia entries twice, but when I check on the notes it is inserted only once. | | | Unfortunately, I can't use DVDprofiler at the moment due to lack of a Windows computer. |

| Posted: | | | | That is because if it is from IMDB... you don't need it in notes any longer. The html window automatically pulls the trivia from them now! | | | Pete |

I think imdb often has many useless and uninteresting Trivia in it, so added to this thread just these which I thought were the best. But until we've such a great Trivia window now, I'll also just post things in here which were from other sources, for not having doubled them up. |

LOL, I thought the same thing myself Quoting VirusPil: Quote: I think imdb often has many useless and uninteresting Trivia in it, so added to this thread just these which I thought were the best. Indeed, and that is why trivia saved in the Notes is displayed in front of IMDb items | | | 1.0.1, iPhone 3GS, iOS 4.1.0
Trivia v0.3.1 My HSDB v5 additions, HTML windows and other stuff |

| Posted: | | | | Sent to me through PM.... The Matrix:Prisoner ReferenceAnyone who was a big fan of the 60's TV show, The Prisoner, will see certain similarities between that and Neo's encounter with the architect. This is probably intentional since, in the first movie, an episode of the Prisoner (with Number 6 ever so appropriately meeting number 2) is playing in the background.

It has the same exact hits, shots and music of the first fight of CTHD (it is especially obvious when we see both men's legs almost like dancing). A tribute from the directors?

Among them is a famous black and white clip from Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film "Psycho".

Both were mirrored vertically.

Dragon Ball / Dragon Ball Z animeMovie InspirationToriyama Akira, the author of the manga, admitted in an interview in Shounen Weekly Jump to being a huge Sci-fi movie fan and taking inspiration from movies for Dragon Ball: - The 3rd form of Frieza is based on the appearance of an Alien in the Alien movies - The androids are loosely based on the concept of the Terminator movies - Android 8 (8-gou) is inspired by the monster of Frankenstein Quote: <div style="display:none"> <trivia=<b>Movie Inspiration</b><br>Toriyama Akira, the author of the manga, admitted in an interview in Shounen Weekly Jump to being a huge Sci-fi movie fan and taking inspiration from movies for Dragon Ball: - The 3rd form of Frieza is based on the appearance of an Alien in the Alien movies - The androids are loosely based on the concept of the Terminator movies - Android 8 (8-gou) is inspired by the monster of Frankenstein/> </div> SaiyuukiSon Gokuu is based of the character of the same name in the Chinese classic tale Saiyuuki (Journey to the West).
