17 Now-You-Know Movie Facts To Prepare For Autumn

Autumn is on its way. Soon the summer heat will turn into this new fall heat, which isn’t as hot but is still hot. Then leaves will fall from the trees and everyone will inject pumpkin into every single consumable item a person can ingest into their bodies. Just hordes of pumpkin-infused people walking around and wearing scarves, even though it’s not really scarf weather but you want to be festive anyway.

One way to prepare for this changing of the season is arm yourselves with movie facts and trivia. We mean, you need something to say to the barista as you impulsively order your ninth pumpkin spice latte with your fifth pumpkin cake loaf, right? What better tip can you give to a barista than a new fact about some film they might have seen?

Please tip your baristas a minimum of 20% and also learn some movie facts, too, won’t you?
