A regular poster (and occasional leg puller :) ) to 'the lounge' made a startling claim on another thread that Oliver Stone was the screenwriter for 'Conan : The Barbarian'. :eek:

Does anyone know of any other odd movie tidbits such as this?

I'll start with one. Humourist/writer PJ O'Rourke was a scriptwriter on the Rodney Dangerfield movie 'Easy Money'. In hindsight, maybe that isn't so surprising!! Joe Pesci also co-stars in this movie, which I can thoroughly recommend to anyone who appreciates puerile humour. :)

At the end of Teen Wolf, some extra in the background is showing his franks and beans.

While filming the Godfather II, Al Pacino was fed up with the long shooting schedule employed by Francis Ford Coppola and yelled, "What is taking so long? Sydney Lumet shot Serpico in 18 days!"

Alexander Payne, who wrote screenplays for and directed "Election," "About Schmidt," and "Sideways" readily admits he wrote the screenplay for Jurrasic Park III to round up some cash.
