  APOCALYPSE NOW 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY FRANCIS FORD COPPOLA 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Apocalypse Now (1979) is a war film directed by Francis Ford Coppola, set during the Vietnam War. The story follows Captain Benjamin Willard, who is sent on a covert mission to assassinate Colonel Kurtz, a U.S. Army officer who has gone rogue and established a violent, godlike rule over a remote Cambodian outpost. As Willard journeys upriver with his crew, he encounters the brutal realities of war, exploring themes of madness, morality, and the human cost of violence. The film blends surrealism and psychological horror, offering a haunting critique of war and its dehumanizing effects. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Principal photography concluded on May 21, 1977, after 238 days of filming.” 
    
  “Al Pacino was also offered the role of Captain Willard but declined, fearing a lengthy stay in the jungle and recalling how he fell ill during The Godfather Part II in the Dominican Republic.” 
    
  “Apocalypse Now won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, sharing the honor with The Tin Drum by Volker Schlöndorff, despite some boos from the audience.” 
    
  “The film's title, Apocalypse Now, was inspired by a button badge from the 1960s that read 'Nirvana Now,' which John Milius modified for the film.” 
    
  “During Captain Willard's conversation with Colonel Kurtz, Willard's Ohio roots are mentioned. Interestingly, actor Martin Sheen is from Dayton, Ohio, just like his character.”

  E.T. THE EXTRA-TERRESTRIAL 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY STEVEN SPIELBERG 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial is a heartwarming science fiction film directed by Steven Spielberg. It follows Elliott, a young boy who befriends an alien, E.T., stranded on Earth. As Elliott and his siblings hide E.T. from their mother and government agents, the bond between them grows stronger. The film explores themes of friendship, empathy, and the innocence of childhood. Spielberg emphasizes emotional connections and the sense of wonder through the eyes of children, creating a powerful narrative about understanding, compassion, and the desire to help others, regardless of their origins. The movie balances adventure with deep emotional moments. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “A 2'10" tall stuntman performed most of the full-body puppetry for E.T. However, the kitchen scenes were filmed using a 12-year-old boy who was born without legs but was an expert at walking on his hands.” 
    
  “To help audiences connect more deeply with the child protagonist, Steven Spielberg shot much of the film from a child's eye level, aligning the camera perspective with that of Elliott and E.T.” 
    
  “The Halloween scene where E.T. sees a child in a Yoda costume suggests that they come from the same galaxy. Interestingly, the Star Wars universe also references E.T. when E.T.'s species appears in the Senate scene of Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace.”
