Trivia / Cinemassacre Video

• Colbert Bump: The review of Y2K: Year to Kill brought it out of obscurity.
• Creator-Driven Successor:
  • Tony's show Hack the Movies is more or less the same format as Cinemassacre Video with Tony as the host, with plenty of guests from Cinemassacre and not appearing in different reviews.
  • The Y2K Scare VHS Tapes episode feels like a precursor to the Cinemassacre Podcast- while they did technically discuss the content of the tapes, a good chunk of it was merely discussing the topic of Y2K in general, and has the freewheeling conversation feel of the Podcast.
• In Memoriam: The Born Free review ended with a brief tribute to James's black cat Boo, who had recently passed away.
• What Could Have Been: Due to the series coming to an abrupt end, we never got episodes that the cast hinted would make great future discussions, such as Loaded Weapon 1 and Freddy Got Fingered.
  • In the Cinemassacre Podcast, James and Justin said there are a handful of episodes that were recorded but never finished due to the abrupt ending of the series. One that was recorded but lost is a review of Perfect Blue, because James didn't "get" the movie and more importantly, one of their microphones wasn't on while recording. They also alluded to wanting to continue the series, but the COVID-19 Pandemic made recording unfeasible.
  • Tony has said a few times that they had gotten in touch with Nathan Runk, the winner of the infamous "The Mask 2" contest by Nintendo Power, to have him on as a guest, but COVID also derailed that. Unfortunately, they've never been able to reach him again since.
