Is there a relationship between Big Trouble in Little China and Buckaroo Banzai?

The Wing Kong Exchange - John Carpenter's Big Trouble in Lit...
Yes, The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension (1984) was directed by W.D. Richter, who wrote the screenplay to Big Trouble in Little China (1986). If you watch the end of Buckaroo Banzai, the film mentions a potential sequel called "Buckaroo Banzai Against the World Crime League."

Where did the name 'Little Big Cat' come from?

Little Big Cat
The name "Little Big Cat" came from a combination of factors. As a teenager, Dr. Jean spent two summers on a Nez Perce reservation in Idaho; so one of her favorite movies is "Little Big Man," in which the main character shifts back and forth between the Indian and white ways of life in the frontier West. And Jackson has a great interest in big cat behavior, and in how lions, tigers, and other big cats are similar to our domestic feline companions.

How did such a tiny little independent picture end up with a big company like Sony?

Frequently Asked Questions
We still can't figure that out ourselves! But for the record, what happened is that it was screened at the American Cinemathéque in Hollywood one night; a Sony executive was in the audience, fell in love with the movie, and lobbied the company to pick it up. We've nominated him for sainthood...but more likely, he'll end up with a walk-on in our next picture.

The woofer is so little and the cabinet is so big--what's up with that?

Jupiter Audio - FAQ's
Physics. The trend in the world of powered subwoofers is to have big numbers out of small cabinets, and it doesn't matter what happens to acheive that end. Thus you have many "audiophile" subwoofers pumping out dirty, overly EQ'd bass. In reality, if you want clean bass, you have to have the cabinet size to allow for sufficient loading of the woofer cone--that's the physics part.

What are Big/Little Sisters/Brothers?

Pearce Area Band Club
During Homecoming season, kids can elect to participate. Once "signed up" each kid is assigned or picks a big/little sister/brother. Boys are paired with girls, and underclassmen are paired with upperclass band students. One person in each pair will know their partner, but it will be a secret to the other.

DO YOU SEPARATE BIG AND LITTLE DOGS?

Downtown Dogs Minneapolis
We allow the dogs to separate themselves into the playgroups of their choice. They generally separate by play style more than size. We feel it is important socialization for dogs of all sizes to interact with each other. Some small dogs prefer to hang out with other small dogs but our experience is most want to play with the big guys. Therefore as a part of our evaluation we insure that all dogs are good with dogs of all sizes.
