Line 15:
*** So has Bill Nighy (Billy Mack).
** Mark moved to Atlanta to deal with [[The Walking Dead]].
** Sarah is in love with [[300|Xerxes]] aka [[Lost|Paulo]] aka [[Che|Raul Castro]].
** Don't forget [[The Phantom Menace|Qui Gon-Jin]] and his step-son [[Phineas and Ferb|Ferb]].
** [[Harry Potter|Professor Snape]] and [[Harry Potter|Professor Trelawney]] are married now?
* [[Playing Against Type]]: [[Alan Rickman]] especially.
* [[Star-Making Role]]:
** "Who's Bill Nighy? Is he famous in England or something?" Yes, a little, but this was the film that elevated him to national treasure status.
** Averted by Martine McCutcheon, a former-soap-star-turned-singer, who was given major billing and was about as well-received as the rest of the film. For some reason this didn't launch her onto any other roles.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: Rowan Atkinson's character was originally going to appear in every single story (rather than just being a [[Cardinal Wolsey]]) with the strong implication that he was an angel. This is hinted in the airport scene where Atkinson's character gives Daniel a knowing glance after he "accidentally" allows Sam to get through airport security. Sort of the Christmassy equivalent to Sam from ''[[Trick 'r Treat]]''.
** Simon Pegg also auditioned for that part.
** Sam was going to be a skilled gymnast, which would aid in his run through the airport. Ultimately Curtis couldn't figure out how to work it naturally into the story.
