  RICK AND MORTY 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
    
  CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
    
  Rick and Morty is an American adult animated science fiction sitcom created by Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon for Adult Swim. The series follows the misadventures of cynical mad scientist Rick Sanchez, and his fretful grandson, Morty Smith, as they split their time between domestic life and interdimensional travels. The show blends family drama with sci-fi concepts. It is inspired by British-style storytelling, drawing from series such as The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and Doctor Who. The show addresses themes of existential dread and cosmicism. Rick and Morty has won multiple awards, including Primetime Emmy and Annie Awards. 
    
  CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
    
  Rick and Morty originated from an animated short parody of Back to the Future called The Real Animated Adventures of Doc and Mharti, created by Justin Roiland for a short film festival. The short featured crude humor and served as the basis for the characters of Rick and Morty. 
    
  The show's creators, Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon, met at Channel 101, a short film festival in Los Angeles where participants submit short films and a live audience decides which pilots continue as a series. Roiland's submissions often featured shock value and "sick and twisted" elements that caught Harmon's attention, leading to their collaboration. 
    
  Initially, Adult Swim wanted a more prime-time show and approached Dan Harmon, who was initially hesitant because he was unfamiliar with animation. Harmon then contacted Roiland, who suggested using the Doc and Mharti characters, which were eventually renamed Rick and Morty, to create the show.

  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY WILLIAM FRIEDKIN 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  The Exorcist is a 1973 supernatural horror film directed by William Friedkin, based on William Peter Blatty's novel. The story follows Chris MacNeil, an actress whose 12-year-old daughter, Regan, begins exhibiting strange and violent behavior. As doctors fail to find a cause, Chris turns to Father Damien Karras, a Jesuit priest and psychologist, who suspects her daughter may be possessed by a demon. The film explores themes of faith, good versus evil, and the battle for the soul, set against a backdrop of chilling supernatural events, making it one of the most iconic and unsettling horror films in cinema history. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Due to threats against Linda Blair from religious extremists who believed the film glorified Satan, Warner Bros. provided her with bodyguards for six months after the film's release.” 
    
  “On the first day of filming the exorcism sequence, Linda Blair's foul-mouthed dialogue so shocked the gentlemanly Max von Sydow that he forgot his lines.” 
    
  “The Exorcist became Warner Bros.' highest-grossing film of all time when adjusted for inflation.” 
    
  “The original teaser trailer, which featured quick flashes of a white-faced demon, was banned in several theaters for being too frightening.” 
    
  “If adjusted for inflation, The Exorcist would still hold the title of the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time.”

  A Transatlantic Adventure Fueled by Tea and Hedgerow Fruit 
  When American Claire Craig Evans married a charming British man, there was a cost for the snappy banter and countless offers of tea: she had to uproot life as she knew it and relocate to the UK. Who wouldn’t want to move to an enchanted island where mysterious women with dewy complexions made jam in thatched cottages with millennia-old lichen attached? 
  Sure, experienced American expats offered nuggets of wisdom (“Bring over a lifetime supply of taco seasoning!”) but they weren’t even mild comfort as Claire tried to avoid death, jail, and wayward sheep while learning to navigate zebra crossings and drive on the “wrong” side of the road. 
  The allure of a jet-setter lifestyle vanished as fast as Air India sent her Samsonite to Delhi instead of London Heathrow. Would more tea help her figure out how long she’d been wearing the single pair of underwear in her possession? (That was the jetlag talking. They do have underwear in the UK, too.) 
  Fans of Bridget Jones and Bill Bryson alike will enjoy High Tea and the Low Down, a keenly-observed memoir full of laugh-out-loud moments as Claire experiences the reality of English living. If she couldn’t even pass a pub quiz, how would she ever pass the infamous Life in the UK test, the high-stakes hurdle required to stay on British soil (and with her husband) indefinitely?

  FORREST GUMP 
  THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
    
  FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY ROBERT ZEMECKIS 
    
  CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
    
  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Forrest Gump is a heartwarming drama about a kind-hearted man from Alabama with a low IQ who inadvertently influences several major historical events in the 20th century. The film follows Forrest’s extraordinary life, from his childhood with a loving mother to his experiences as a college football star, soldier in Vietnam, ping-pong champion, and shrimp boat captain. The film explores themes of destiny, love, perseverance, and the unpredictability of life, while highlighting the impact of historical events. Told from Forrest’s unique perspective, it combines humor, drama, and emotional depth, reflecting the power of human resilience and simplicity. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Tom Hanks was not paid for this film. Instead, he took percentage points, which ultimately netted him around $40 million.” 
    
  “The line, "My name is Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump," was ad-libbed by Tom Hanks during filming. Director Robert Zemeckis liked it so much that he decided to keep it in.” 
    
  “With every transition of Forrest's age, one thing remains the same: in the first scene of each transition, he wears a blue plaid shirt.” 
    
  “Tom Hanks' younger brother, Jim Hanks, doubled for him during many of his numerous running sequences.” 
    
  “The necklace worn by Lieutenant Dan is a rosary with a Saint Christopher medal, inscribed "Protect Us In Combat." It was worn in Vietnam by Gary Sinise's brother-in-law, Jack Treese, in 1967-68.”
