* PlayingAgainstType: Creator/RLeeErmey had [[AwesomeDearBoy absolute ball]] playing Titus Scroad, a drug-addled, reclusive perfectionist of a director who comes out of retirement to direct "Beverly Hills Gun Club". Amusingly, while Scroad's filmography is mostly modeled on Creator/FrancisFordCoppola, his personality and appearance are based on ''Creator/StanleyKubrick'', who gave Ermey his big break in Hollywood (and had remained a close friend of his in real life).
