Trivia / National Lampoon

• Prop Recycling: Men in White was produced by Saban Entertainment for the channel they had just relaunched as part-owner, Fox Family. Given how the plot revolved around aliens, quite a few of the alien costumes had previously been used by Saban for Power Rangers, most notably Eye Guy. A brief bit of Stock Footage was also reused from Denji Sentai Megaranger (as Power Rangers in Space was in production at the time), and one of the lead actors, Karim Prince, had previously played the Blue Aquitian Ranger!
• What Could Have Been: Believe it or not, Jaws 3-D was originally going to be part of this series. It would've been titled "Jaws 3, People 0", and been about an in-universe production of a Jaws 3. The movie would've began with Peter Benchley (no word on if it was the real one, or an actor playing him) being eaten by a shark in his swimming pool while attempting to write the script to said movie. The villains would've been film executives, and the whole thing would've supposedly been very corny, with Rodger Bumpass (best known as Squidward Tentacles) as the lead. However, Steven Spielberg was not happy with the script, feeling it was disrespectful to the first 2 movies, and had the production shut down. It was revived a year later as an actual Jaws movie, and the finished product is considered funny...albeit unintentionally.
