10 Amazingly Subtle Details You Never Noticed In Famous Movies

2. The Name "P. Sherman" Sounds Like "Fisherman" When Said As One Word - Finding Nemo

Finding Nemo Finding Nemo is Pixar's movie about fishes, 'cause at this point they'd already done toys, bugs and monsters, and it seemed like the next step. The plot concerns a clownfish called Nemo who finds himself separated from his father, Marlin, and their attempts to reunite with one another. How is such a thing achieved, you ask, given the size of the ocean? By way of an address, of course: "P. Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney," which is where Nemo is being held captive. Most of us probably never gave the name "P. Sherman" a second thought when it was uttered in the movie, because, hey, it's just a name - the funny part was "Wallaby Way," right? Oh, Australia - you and your crazy animals. In actuality, the name was chosen for a reason, and it's because - when said as one word - it sounds like the word "fisherman." And there are fish and fisherman in this movie, remember? So it's relevant. Tell all your friends.
