    Storyline

    • Trivia
      At one point, Peta Wilson does a humorous impersonation of Sir Sean Connery's voice. According to Wilson, this was a last-minute addition to the scene, and she felt nervous doing it, since Connery impersonations were considered a no-no on the set. Before the shoot, she called Connery and offered not to do the accent, but he insisted she should. Afterwards, she asked him what he thought. He replied, "You were great!" She was taken aback and asked if he really meant it. He said, "Yeah, it's terrible! It's the worst impersonation I have ever heard, and it's perfect."
    • Goofs
      When the League first sees Nemo's transportation, no one knows what to call it until Nemo tells them that it's an "automobile." Later, when the League is racing through Venice, Quatermain tells Sawyer to take the "car." If they had never seen or heard of an automobile, how would he know to call it a car? Actually, in British dialect "car" is used to mean any wheeled vehicle, and the word's usage pre-dates the invention of the automobile by centuries: c.1350 Middle English carra, from Anglo-French carre, from Latin carrum, orig. "two-wheeled Celtic war chariot," from Gaul. So it really is not surprising that Quatermain would refer to the vehicle as a car.
    • Quotes

      Mina Harker: You're sweet... and you're young. Neither are traits that I hold in high regard.

    • Crazy credits
      In the original theatrical release, during the opening credits when Alan Moore's credit first begins to appear on screen, it reads "Based on the COMIC BOOK by Alan Moore" but suddenly changes to "Based on the GRAPHIC NOVEL by Alan Moore".
    • Alternate versions
      For the Swedish release, approximately 33 seconds were cut from various violent scenes in order to receive an 11 certification.

    Unexpected originality....
    For those of you who agree with me in that your main stream critics are basically worthless, a person with a thing called "imagination" is required.

    I had my reservations about this film from the beginning. Was this going to be another Highland part III?

    But to my astonishment this movie turned about to be great. Here are a group of characters who you would never see together. These characters have a well defined existence in the root of many of our classic novels and such.

    Each of them at-odds with own demons, yet working together for a common good.

    I recommend this to any body who has imagination and who doesn't "literally" take a movies premise word for word from its original reference.
