* StuntCasting: If you know about Tiffany and Debbie Gibson being considered as fierce rivals just because their singing careers took off at the same time, you'll know why ''Mega Python vs Gatoroid'' qualifies. Likewise, ''Bigfoot'' got alot of press by starring Danny Bonaduce and Barry Williams, both stars of musical sitcoms of decades past (''The Partridge Family'' and ''The Brady Bunch'', respectively).

* FranchiseOriginalSin: The 2005 DirectToVideo adaptation of ''Literature/TheWarOfTheWorlds'' made a surprising amount of money, mostly through serendipity that it was a very faithful adaptation that happened to coincide with [[Film/TheWarOfTheWorlds2005 a far more lavish one]]. Seeing quick dollar signs in their eyes, video rental stores bought The Asylum's cheaper movie in bulk, [[TheMockbuster hoping to make a quick buck from moviegoers who couldn't tell the difference]] (Blockbuster Video alone purchased a quarter of a million copies), which brought The Asylum enough money that ''they'' started seeing quick dollar signs in their eyes, quickly leading to their current notoriety for ''intentional'' mockbusters.
