* FollowTheLeader: One of several films shamelessly following in the footsteps of Creator/MontyPython's 1979 hit ''Film/LifeOfBrian'', with its spoofing of religion and/or Biblical epics; others included Creator/MartyFeldman's televangelist spoof ''In God We Tru$t'' and the Ancient Rome stretch of Creator/MelBrooks's ''Film/HistoryOfTheWorldPartI''.

* WagTheDirector: After showing up very late, Creator/RichardPryor reportedly re-wrote/improvised most of the dialogue for his cameo as The Pharaoh, along with refusing to have a trained lion on the set with him.

* StarDerailingRole: Averted for Creator/DudleyMoore. This was his first film after his international breakout in ''Film/{{Ten}}'', and actually opened well at the box office, but it still lost about $2.5 million when all was said and done. The aversion is that his ''next'' film -- ''Film/{{Arthur 1981}}'' -- ended up being a bigger hit than anyone could have anticipated.
