    It was a promotional cardboard cut out of Ted Danson, the ghost story was developed to cover up the fact that the cardboard cut out was actually a better actor than the real Danson

    At the end of the ted danson clip there are more clips across the bottom look at the one with the red circle , pics of ghosts some are just shapes in rocks that might look like people but others gave me shivers . the last one is from the hauted amitiville horroe house of a little boy peaking out ive seen this before and there is no question that there is something there .

    Well the movie that always amazes me is the one of the Apollo moon landing (released as a TV movie in 1969) staring Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin as a couple of astronauts who land on the moon and then return to Earth... a lot of people actually believe they were watching a live transmission instead of a poorly cobbled together movie.

    Wasnt there a KFC sign in the background in Far and Away ?

    You get alot of mistakes with regard to flags. Like the Union Flag in movies set in pre-1801 times.

    It's not really a mistake as much as a policy decision based on profit, but it is really annoying when a movie is set in a country where English is not the first language, but the movie is in English.

    Take Schindler's List. One of the most powerful directors in the world, making the most serious film he'll ever make.

    Why do they speak English?
    Why do they speak English with German accents?
    Why do background characters occasionally speak German (serving only to emphasise the fact that everybody is speaking English)?

    I've got a lot of respect for directors who make a movie, especially a historical drama,in the language which would have really been spoken then.
    Well done Kevin Costner!!

    If you mean Tom, I don't think he did. You need two or more channels to use the BSS techniques he worked on.

    They sure do. It's called driving around the bend.
    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.
