Not related to shoplifting, though shoplifting is very cool: When I was 9 (1978ish) I got a Star Wars poster autographed by Darth Vader at Mervyn's. It never occurred to me to ask why Darth Vader was at an East Bay Mervyn's signing autographs.

Producer Joel Silver insisted that both Die Hard and Lethal Weapon be set at Christmas so they would be replayed every December and everyone involved would get more residuals. So they were always intended to be Christmas movies, even if it was only for the crassest of commercial reasons.

I was there. This protest (to the best of my knowledge) was the first use of "free speech zones" which are complete bullshit both then and now. The police were so judicious with tear gas that it was blowing through windows in neighborhoods half a mile away.

In urban combat school (in the military) I had to actually use a grappling hook and rope to go through a second story window, and let me tell you that the movies make it look so much easier. In real life that shit sucks.

Several decades ago I knew a photographer who got taken to court by a stock model who had his image used in an AIDS prevention ad. It got tossed because the model release allowed "all uses", but the model was very unhappy about how many people in his life were asking if he had AIDS.

My DMV has the robo-announcer voice set to Australian Female and I live in the Mountain West of the US. It's fine... I just don't understand exactly why that choice was made.
