The r/MovieDetails subreddit has been around since late June of 2017. In that time, it’s amassed nearly 3.1 million members, which just goes to show that it’s doing so many things right, it’s ridiculous.

First of all, the subreddit gives anyone on the internet a backstage pass, a glimpse beyond the curtain into the entrancing world of movie-making. There’s so much effort and love that goes into the dialogues, the clothing, and the storylines.

The subreddit is a way to rediscover one simple fact: movies are magic. And knowing how the sausage is made can sometimes make us relish it even more.

During an earlier interview, Bored Panda had a chat about the subreddit with one of the moderators, u/Niiue.

"Most details are definitely there for the audience to find, but I think a lot of it also just comes down to creative people wanting to have fun with their projects. Speaking from experience here (though I work on video games, not movies), it really is a lot of fun to add little Easter eggs and whatnot just for the hell of it," the redditor shared how creatives from all walks of life love adding small details in their work.

The moderator also shared their opinion about which production houses and directors are the best at hiding Easter eggs in their films.

"Besides the obvious choices like Pixar, I think Edgar Wright is another example of someone great at hiding details in his movies. Shaun of the Dead, Scott Pilgrim, and Hot Fuzz are the first ones that come to mind in this regard. You'll find that his movies tend to get featured on this subreddit a lot, which I think reflects his skill as a director,” they told Bored Panda.

"Personally, I liked the way Scott Pilgrim had a recurring number motif tied to the Evil Exes. For those who aren't familiar with the story, the gist of it is that the protagonist has to fight his new girlfriend's six ex-boyfriends (and one ex-girlfriend) in order to continue their relationship, as a parody of the bosses fought in a typical video game," the moderator opened up about the details that they personally loved seeing.

They continued about the Scott Pilgrim movie: "In the scenes before each fight, there are numerous references to the corresponding Evil Ex; for instance, right before the fight with Lucas Lee, the main characters pass by two crossing signs with an X design, a reference to Lucas being the second Evil Ex. These kinds of references even continue after the Evil Ex in question is introduced, such as Lucas Lee saying (twice) that it will take ‘two minutes to kick [Scott's] ass,’ and later fighting Scott accompanied by his stunt doubles."

According to moderator u/Niiue, some of these motives even apply to the protagonist. “Later in the film (spoilers!), after defeating Evil Ex #4, Scott's girlfriend dumps him, saying that he's 'just another Evil Ex waiting to happen.' Afterwards, Scott's seen wearing a Fantastic Four shirt with an edited logo saying '4½.'"

Creating good designs is a lot of hard work. Previously, Bored Panda spoke to Nigerian fashion designer, dress-maker, and the founder of the Janore brand, Oyinda Akinfenwa, to learn about her work.

“When it comes to my process, it varies depending on the design and my state of mind at the point. It could be fast like just envisioning a style and sometimes it’s quite slow which may involve drawing various patterns to make sure I get the right fit and styling necessary for each design,” Oyinda explained to Bored Panda during an earlier interview about how she tends to work.

“I wish people understood that it is not easy to actually create designs out of an idea, there’s a lot of creative process that goes into it and it will be nice if people were a bit more understanding of designers and also understanding the story behind their art,” the fashion designer stressed that creating clothes is an art form that requires a lot of patience, patience, and perseverance.

“I have to make sure that all the styling options I offer look just as good as the next one and also ensure that it fits into the category of outfit that I’m going for. Also to make sure that it can not only be styled differently but also styled to fit different occasions thereby creating ease as well as comfort for whoever is wearing it,” the fashion designer said.
