Trivia / The Curse of the Jade Scorpion

• Box Office Bomb: Budget, $33 million. Box office, $18,914,307.
• Creator Backlash: Woody Allen claims this is probably his worst film.
• Creator Killer: Almost, but it was quite the close call. It was the Woody Allen film with the highest budget, which only intensified its bombing at the box office. It almost killed Allen's career until Match Point revived it.
• What Could Have Been: Tom Hanks and Jack Nicholson both turned down the role of C.W. Briggs, so Woody Allen decided to play the role himself.
