Buzzfeed put together a list of 21 Completely Random Movie and TV Facts. Here are the highlights:
1. Woody from “Toy Story” has a last name. It’s PRIDE.
2. In 1957, “Leave it to Beaver” became the first TV series to show part of a toilet. They showed the tank. The bowl would have been too edgy.
3. “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” was the first TV show to ever use “Google” as a verb.
4. After “I Love Lucy”, Vivian Vance and William Frawley were offered their own spin-off called “The Mertzes”, but Vivian said NO, because in real life, Ethel HATED Fred, and didn’t want to work with him again.
5. In “The Empire Strikes Back”, when Leia says “I Love You”, and Han replies “I know”, that was an ad-lib by Harrison Ford. George Lucas hated it, but test audiences LOVED it . . . so it stayed in the movie.
6. The boots Michael Keaton’s Batman wore were actually Nike sneakers.
7. The producers of “The X-Files” wanted Pamela Anderson to play Dana Scully.
8. James Cameron didn’t want “My Heart Will Go On” in “Titanic”, because he thought the movie was too epic and didn’t need a pop song.
