    MINORITY REPORT 
    THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
      
    FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG 
      
    CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
      
    ABOUT THE FILM 
    Minority Report is a 2002 science fiction thriller directed by Steven Spielberg, set in a dystopian future where a specialized police unit, PreCrime, prevents crimes before they occur. The system relies on three psychics, called "Precogs," who foresee murders, allowing the police to apprehend perpetrators before they commit the crime. The story follows John Anderton, the head of PreCrime, who is accused of a future murder and becomes a fugitive. The film explores themes of free will versus determinism, the morality of preemptive justice, and the ethical implications of surveillance and control in a highly technological society. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “The "Precogs" were named after famous mystery writers: Dashiell Hammett, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Agatha Christie.” 
      
    “For the scene where Anderton holds his breath in the bathtub, Steven Spielberg planned to create the rising air bubble using CGI, but Tom Cruise took the time to learn how to do it himself.” 
      
    “Tom Cruise and Steven Spielberg both agreed to waive their usual salary to help keep the film's budget under $100 million. Instead, they agreed to take 15% of the film's gross.” 
      
    “Initially, Steven Spielberg wanted Greta (Dr. Eddie’s assistant) to sing a song by ABBA, but Peter Stormare suggested something more absurd: the Swedish children's song "Små grodorna" ("The Small Frogs"), traditionally sung during Midsummer Eve parties in Sweden.”
