Talk:The Witches of Eastwick

message: Is this based on the film or the novel?  The novel seems to be quite different from this in many ways, so maybe two synopses should be included.  If I have time, I'll split it up and write one sometime
This page sounds much more like the film than the novel. Alexandra's power is not minor at the beginning of the novel; she can summon thunderstorms. Darryl Van Horne is not "devil-like", but more of an eccentric inventor. The witches don't exile Darryl; his departure from Eastwick is even a surprise to Alexandra.

Talk:Psych-Out

message: Not sure if this falls under nitpickery , I'll leave that to the page manager. Two things.
1) Dave does not live over a warehouse. It is a theater on Haight Street. ( No warehouses on the whole , very long , street. ). It may be the theater that eventually became "The I-Beam" ... that part I'm a little foggy on.
2) In the paragraph mentioning the junkyard thugs at the club gig , why all the "?"'s? If they had it in for "The Seeker" , and now the band - after the junkyard smackdown , it makes perfect sense that they are following them around for payback. Not really all that mysterious or questionable.

message: My son has been a fan of this movie since, at a young age, he noticed it starred "Mary Poppins." We were surprised to learn from this Wikipedia entry that Audrey Hepburn is a "star" and narrator of the movie (voice only).
The Wikipedia entry for Audrey Hepburn doesn't mention this "starring role" or narration. Ditto for IMDb entries for Audrey Hepburn and Thoroughly Modern Millie. A quick internet search didn't turn up any corroboration.

Talk:The Trip (1967 film)

message: I eliminated the following trivia as being only tangential to this film.
*The house used as one of the primary shooting locations for The Trip was located on top of Kirkwood in Laurel Canyon, Hollywood Hills, California.  It was the home of Arthur Lee of Love where he was living while recording the Forever Changes LP sessions.  
*Lee stored 25-pound bags of Purina dog food for his dog "Self" in a closet in his house, which was rigged with lighting effects as seen in The Trip.  According to the book by Love drummer Michael Stuart-Wise "Behind The Scenes of the Pegasus Carousel with the Legendary Rock Group LOVE," Lee was quoted as saying, "Yeah, I hide in that closet myself sometimes."  Band member Alban "Snoopy" Pfisterer also used the closet as a "freak out" setting.
*Nicholson also appears with Susan Strasberg in the Dick Clark-produced Psych-Out (1968), set in San Francisco, California, sporting a prosthetic ponytail.
*One of the movie's promo posters is featured on the back cover of the cult 1980s compilation LP of obscure 1960s garage rock 'Wavy Gravy', on Beware records (BEWARE 001).  Swinterich 04:17, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: This line seems to have flummoxed people as far back as 2007; I've trimmed it down to the bare facts. It implied the film was banned in the UK and that there was a "legal" version of it, but according to the BBFC "All known versions of this work passed uncut."1. The certificate is dated 2001, and the lack of substantive information about a ban or cuts implies that it was simply not given a wide release rather than banned. It definitely appeared as part of Channel 4's series of banned films - but was it banned in the UK? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 14:07, 6 July 2014 (UTC)

text: In fact, after reading a bit more, it seems that Channel 4's red triangle series wasn't of banned films at all, just films that were potentially controversial. I recall the channel showing a series of a genuinely banned films some years later - it had Life of Brian (religion), W.R.: Mysteries of the Organism (cocks) - but that was a separate thing.

message: First of all, good trivia, @BenzingtonBarbarell. But you forgot Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) and The Poseidon Adventure (1972)! (I linked the respective ceremonies, by the way.)
And secondly, the reason I mention those two films is because I can understand why @174.44.112.170 misinterpreted the circumstances. The Academy Awards doled out Special Achievement Awards to those two films. Poseidon earned honorary Visual FX prior to that category's existence and Close Encounters got a sound effects honorary trophy.
However, as I explained in the hidden note and on 174's talk page, those do NOT factor into the nomination tally as they are non-competitive awards. Since the record is in regards to most nominations without a Best Picture nomination, only categories in which a film could potentially lose are included. Those bonus awards for the aforementioned films are simply an extra award, a +1, for an overall tally. --Cinemaniac86TalkStalk 06:59, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
