TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The poster parodies at the end are all of movies from Warner Brothers, New Line Cinema, or Turner Entertainment. The filmmakers originally conceived of parodies of other famous films, such as The Sound of Music (1965) and Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), but abandoned them because they would've had to pay licensing fees.

The film was initially announced in June 1993, as a production of Lost Boys, owned by Michael Jackson and David Kirschner. A combination of live action and CGI, it would have starred and been choreographed and scored by Jackson. This version never made it to the screen. A rumor that it was to co-star Looney Tunes characters has yet to be confirmed.

According to Animator Lauren Faust, Nancy Giles was originally cast as the speaking voice of Sawyer, and many scenes were animated to her performance. Jasmine Guy replaced Giles when the project was ninety percent complete. The original voice for the character was much deeper, resulting in a noticeable contrast between Sawyer's final speaking voice (Jasmine Guy) and singing voice (Natalie Cole).

When Warner Bros. acquired the distribution rights after acquiring Turner Pictures, they made very little effort to promote the film. The only merchandising was a Subway tie-in. According to the Los Angeles Times, 15 people (including a family of five) attended the first matinee screening in a theater in Pasadena, California. Producer David Kirschner told the Times he was "devastated" by the film's performance, adding that it "got great reviews and great exit polls. And no one knew it was out there."

The last film for the short-lived Turner Feature Animation studio. In the midst of production, Ted Turner sold all of his companies to Time Warner, and Turner Animation was absorbed into Warner Brothers Animation.

"Darla Dimple: I'm the star! You stupid, stupid cat! I should have drowned you all when I flooded the stage! [echoing over the PA says "Flooded the stage". The crowd, L.B. Mammoth and Flanigan were shocked and gasped] Crowd: Darla Dimple! I can't believe it. [Darla looks around, forces a smile, a weak giggle, grabs Danny, and tries to act all innocent.
