  V FOR VENDETTA 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY JAMES MCTEIGUE 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  V for Vendetta is a dystopian political thriller set in a future totalitarian Britain, where a fascist regime controls the population. The story follows V, a masked anarchist vigilante seeking revenge against those who tortured him. With the help of Evey, a young woman he rescues, V orchestrates a campaign of resistance against the government. The film explores themes of oppression, freedom, and the power of the individual against authoritarian control. It delves into the ethical dilemmas of revolution and the cost of freedom, blending action with philosophical reflections on political tyranny and personal identity. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “In Valerie's (Natasha Wightman’s) flashback, there is a brief scene when she talks about meeting her lover while filming her movie. The movie crew that appeared in this scene was composed nearly entirely of the crew members for this movie.” 
    
  “In the comic, illustrator David Lloyd often subtly changed V’s Guy Fawkes mask to suit the mood or tone of a particular scene. The filmmakers considered designing several subtly different masks but decided to alter the shadows and lighting in post-production instead.” 
    
  “The scenes in the abandoned London Underground station were filmed at Aldwych, a Piccadilly line station that closed in 1994. The branch still has tracks and electricity, meaning trains can still operate.”

  An explosive, groundbreaking album that crowned a new king of rock in just 33 minutes Before Elvis Costello was one of Rolling Stone’s greatest artists of all time, before he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he was Declan P. McManus, an office drone with a dull suburban life and a side gig in a pub rock band. In 1976, under the guidance of legendary label Stiff Records, he transformed himself into the snarling, spectacled artist who defied the musical status quo to blaze the trail for a new kind of rock star with his debut album, My Aim Is True. In Elvis Is King, Richard Crouse examines how the man, the myth, and the music of this arrestingly original album smashed the trends of the era to bridge the gap between punk and rock ’n’ roll.

  DIE HARD 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY JOHN MCTIERNAN 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  "Die Hard" is a 1988 action thriller directed by John McTiernan, centered on New York cop John McClane, who is visiting his estranged wife in Los Angeles. While attending her company’s Christmas party at the Nakatomi Plaza, the building is seized by a group of terrorists led by Hans Gruber. McClane becomes the only hope for the hostages as he uses his wit and resourcefulness to fight back against the heavily armed group. The film explores themes of heroism, isolation, and resilience, with a mix of suspense, action, and moments of dark humor, making it a hallmark of the action genre. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “The fictional Nakatomi Plaza, used as the setting for the film, actually serves as the headquarters for 20th Century Fox. The company charged itself rent for using the still-under-construction building.” 
    
  “Bruce Willis's costume department had 17 undershirts on hand, each in varying stages of wear and tear, to match the degradation of his shirt during the film.” 
    
  “Bruce Willis was paid an unprecedented $5 million for the role, a figure that was approved by Fox President Rupert Murdoch.” 
    
  “In 2007, Bruce Willis donated the iconic undershirt worn by John McClane to the Smithsonian Museum.” 
    
  “The scene where Bruce Willis meets Alan Rickman was not rehearsed to increase the sense of spontaneity between the two actors.”
