10 Insane Movie Facts That Will Blow Your Mind

1. Qui-Gon Jinn's Communication Device Is Just A Sensor Excel Razor For Women - Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace

One of the great things about Star Wars is the sheer attention to detail apparent in every frame. The production designers on all six of the movies obviously took pride in the work, and it shows. I mean, the weapons, the costumes, the gadgets... all of them feel real and intricately produced. Well, at least that's what you might have thought, until you realise that some of the "props" are just, like, normal everyday objects.

In this case, we're talking about Qui-Gon Jinn's little communication device, which is just a redecorated Gillette Sensor Excel Razor For Women. Fine as it looks within the movie (we guess), how the heck did this even occur? Did a concept designer forget his was supposed to be conjuring up Qui-Gon's com-device and, like, ask his wife for advice? Stranger still, this little thing was put into shops so you could buy it for your children at a whopping $30.

If only our parents had known about the cheaper alternative, huh? Fun for all the family - especially mom.
