8 Completely Pointless Movie Details That Will Blow Your Mind

7. Shia LaBeouf Went A Bit Too 'Method' In Fury

Firstly, he didn't bathe at all whilst filming went on. Deciding that because his character wouldn't have access to washing himself, he wouldn't either, it's exactly as stinky as it sounds, considering the shoot was on for months without LaBeouf doing so much as run a wet wipe round his grotty bits.

This wasn't even the only unpleasant way he got himself riled up for the role, as he also had a tooth removed by a back alley dentist who 'didn't ask many questions' in another of his particularly pointless choices.

LaBeouf was known to cut his own face and reopen the injuries instead of undergoing makeup every day, but wasn't even the most intense person on set. The director himself made the cast have fist fights throughout filming to improve intimacy. This whole thing sounds a bit of a mess, really.
