Tex Murphy/Trivia

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • So My Kids Can Watch: James Earl Jones worked well below his usual pay grade for Under a Killing Moon because his grandson was big into computer games at the time.
  • Technology Marches On: Laserdiscs, VHS Cassettes and Fax machines aren't as ubiquitous today, a mere 10-20 years later. There's no way you'd expect a VHS or laserdisc player in the board room of a research company, and not having a cellular phone is far more debilitating than not having a fax machine.
    • Lampshaded by Smart Alex making fun of Tex for using a fax machine.
  • Throw It In: Originally, Tex was supposed to wear dark leather shoes. However, those caused trouble with the greenscreen technology being used, so they were switched to white sneakers.
