Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.
Executive Meddling: The original script had Daniel and Miranda getting remarried, but Williams, Sally Field, and Columbus (all divorcees) felt that they didn't want to give children of divorced parents an unrealistic ending.
Fake Brit: Pierce Brosnan himself might be a slight example--he moved to London when he was ten, but he's Irish.
A super-obscure one: One of the men in the sound booth during the opening scene is voice actor Terry McGovern, who is best known as Launchpad McQuack, fake commentator Peter O'Keefe for Sega's NFL2K franchise, and the voice for the befuddled Stormtrooper during the iconic "These are not the droids you looking for" scene in A New Hope.
Throw It In: Attempted within the movie, and it doesn't go well.
What Could Have Been: As mentioned in Executive Meddling above, original plans had Daniel and Miranda remarrying. In addition the original script had Stu being a more snide character, ready to ship the children off to boarding school.
