History Trivia / SuburbanKnights

* FakeNationality:
-->'''Critic''' (about Benzaie as Conan): [[LampshadeHanging "He's a Frenchman pretending to be an Austrian! That will confuse the enemies!"]]

* IKnewIt: It was obvious to everyone somewhere late into the film that [[spoiler:Ma-Ti is the only one to defeat Malachite, due to the "pure of heart" arc words repeated frequently. What viewers DIDN'T count on was Ma-Ti getting killed off!]]

* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: Marzgurl's character's name should be "San", not "Anime/PrincessMononoke".

** [[Film/PressStart Ed Glaser]] was supposed to be Cloak #2. Due to weather conditions he chose to remain backstage, leading [[spoiler:WebVideo/IronLiz]] to replace him.

* NamesTheSame: Thanks to this, some who aren't aware of the film ''Film/{{Willow}}'' thought Handsome Tom was playing [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer a certain other red-haired character named Willow]].
** The series itself also shares a title with a single by the British band Hard-Fi.
** Malachite shares a name with a major antagonist in ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse''.

** Rob has bad memories of the experience, as he felt that Doug created the whole cosplay plot just as an excuse to get his legs [[ShesGotLegs fawned over]], and he also had to deal with him having a "I've ruined everything" breakdown.

** Todd ad libbed the "He looks like a member of [[Music/RunDMC Run–D.M.C.]]" line, and was impressed that Doug decided to keep it. It made it into the trailer.

* TroubledProduction: Doug and Rob had different visions on what kind of movie this would be and eventually made it more like a {{dramedy}} rather than a more straight-forward epic, with Rob turning into a ghost writer, fixing Doug's {{plot hole}}s and clearing up some plot points at the last minute (Rob wanted it to be an actual tribute to ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' and {{LARP}}ing, while Doug wanted them all dressed in general fantasy costumes), weather was horrible during the 4-day shoot which prevented some appearances due to delayed flights and caused broken morale, some people dropped out because they wanted to spend Easter with their friends and family, and some glitches and general filming issues arose not too different from those that plagued ''Kickassia''. The DVD documentary shows they nearly cancelled the thing, but everyone involved decided to give their best to finish it.

* FanNickname:
** Fans were referring to [[HiddenAgendaVillain Orlando's character]] as "Matrix Hitchhiker", as did Bill, until his full name was revealed.
** The costumes bring up several, such as Spoondalf, [=San!Gurl=], King Linkur or Kingkara, Snow Lupa, and Indiana Snob (...or [=Jones!Jones=]).

** [[spoiler:Asserted repeatedly on William's Website/{{Twitter}} that he couldn't make it to the shoot and wouldn't appear.]]
*** [[spoiler:His wife blew the cover on her Twitter, but nobody noticed.]]

* ActorSharedBackground: Film Brain points out that he's actually of the same nationality as Harry Potter, unlike Kinley.

* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: Marzgurl's character's name should be "San", not "Princess Mononoke".
* CreatorBacklash: Rob has bad memories of the experience, as he felt that Doug created the whole cosplay plot just as an excuse to get his legs [[ShesGotLegs fawned over]], and he also had to deal with him having a "I've ruined everything" breakdown.

** A cast commentary by Spoony, Nostalgia Chick, Elisa, Bennett, Film Brain, Benzaie, [[spoiler:That Dude in the Suede]], Cinema Snob, Linkara, Ed Glaser and [=JewWario=]

** Todd said most of his lines were intended for Creator/LordKat, who would have been [[Disney/SnowWhite one of the seven dwarfs.]]

** In the commentary, it's revealed he rode the train to Chicago in costume, and arrived at the hotel asking "You have a reservation for Jones?" (and apparently the clerk [[NoBigDeal didn't phaze a bit!]])

** The alternate idea was "{{Pirate}}s [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/specials/31856-ninjas-vs-pirates-the-other-third-year-anniversary vs.]] {{Ninja}}s", where a VillainTeamUp (of Insano, Mechakara, Dark Nella, etc.) would become ninjas, defeat the TGWTG crew and then go after a magic medallion that could resurrect [[MemeticBadass Blood Beard Joe]] (from Doug's "How To Be a Pirate" series). The reviewers then would train with [[Characters/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses Black Dog Bill]] to be pirates and go after them. It was scrapped because Doug thought it would only be cashing in a pirate and ninja fad, and also for his preferred BBJ actor, Creator/JamesRolfe, being too busy. He hinted that elements of this idea would be postponed for the 4th year special.

* ActorSharedBackground: Film Brain points out that he's actually of the same nationality as Harry Potter, unlike Luke.

** The Brain vs. Luke sequences were originally going to incorporate Phillip and Ringo from Kinley's Film Conscience reviews, but they were cut for time.

* ApprovalOfGod: After the release of the movie, a [=YouTuber=] took [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vlLfQ9oGao clips of the film and spliced them]] into Creator/FilmBrain's review of ''Film/EpicMovie''. Reaction within the TGWTG fan community was pretty negative, but in their cast commentary for the film WebVideo/{{Phelous}} and Creator/BradJones took time to defend it, saying they found the video "really funny" and with Brad admitting that it would be silly for them to get angry at a negative review of their movie when they themselves make a living off of giving negative reviews.

** Orlando asked Doug if he could improvise what Malecite says [[spoiler:on his cell phone]] and Doug liked it so much that he didn't even film the scripted version.
