Reservoir Dogs/Trivia


 * Hey, It's That Voice!: Comedian Steven Wright provides the voice of the radio DJ.
 * Mean Character, Nice Actor: Michael Madsen had difficulty filming the torture scene, but when the actor playing the cop ad-libbed the line about having a child, he flat-out refused to continue until the next day. This moment actually crosses over into the film itself; on some DVD releases, after the line is spoken, Madsen can clearly be heard breaking character and murmuring "Oh no, no," from off-screen.
 * Shout-Out:
 * Pretty much the entire plot is lifted from a Heroic Bloodshed film called City on Fire. The code names are lifted from The Taking of Pelham One Two Three.
 * In the film, Joe Cabot mentions that Mr. Blue is "dead as Dillinger", and in the video game it is revealed that he was gunned down in a movie theater (a reference to how John Dillinger was gunned down near a movie theater).
 * Also an Actor Allusion, as Lawrence Tierney (Joe) had played Dillinger in a film by the same name in 1945.
