After being shown for the first time to studio execs, Downfall had to be completely rewritten, retitled and reshot as the original screenplay contained innacuracies regarding who won WW2

Sharp-eyed viewers will notice that the guitar in the film "Kubo and the Two Strings" actually has three strings in most scenes. This is because the number two is bad luck in China, where it is associated with death.

In China, the film was released as "The Wicked Japanese Dog-Boy" and features an alternate ending where Kubo is executed for his crimes against China.

Four is associated with death in China, ding dong. Originally Kubo was going to have a sick bass guitar, but it was changed due to having four strings.

Wow you're right.

Maybe that other stuff I said about Kubo was inaccurate as well.

In fact, I suspect that many of the posts in this thread should not be taken at face value...

In the movie Gladiator, the scene where Commodus, played by Joaquin Phoenix gives the thumbs down gesture to kill towards Russell Crowe's Maximus is edited out in certain countries such as Italy, Bulgaria, and Nepal because the thumbs down gesture is considered abhorrent in their cultures.

Instead of thumbs down, CGI replaces his whole hand with a fish head.

In some cultures, a fish head being part of a human body is also taboo, so their solution was to disappear Commodus and make it a floating fish head gesturing towards Russell Crowe.

The Matrix has a notable scene where Keanu Wreathes (as Neo) first awakens into the real world, finally free of the matrix. In order to prepare for the awakening scene, he soaked in a tub for over 10 days without once leaving the water to better understand the emotions and motivations of a man thoroughly soaked.

in the timeless classic Twin Dragon, Jackie Chan really had a twin brother named Jacky Chan, but the two were so alike that they couldn't tell which was which so they billed both actors as Jackie Chan, since Jackie was the more popular one

This is why in some movies, you see the billing as Jacky Chan, as that is actually Jackie Chan's brother

in the 1990 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie, "Total Recall" Arnold was actually inside that big redhead woman, he had to be coated in grease to slide down inside her via her mouth for the arrival gate in Mars so that his mannerisms could be captured perfectly.
