The real Ken Carter was on set every day as a consultant. He said that Samuel L. Jackson's portrayal of him is 98.5 percent accurate.
The filmmakers shot the game scenes over and over from many different angles. The actors had to run a single play over one hundred times to get these shots.
"Timo Cruz: Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. - This quote is originally from the book A return to love: Reflections on the principles of a course in miracles by Ms Marianne Williamson."
"Jason Lyle: You said we're a team. One person struggles, we all struggle. One person triumphs, we all triumph."
