SpongeBob SquarePants has worked at the Krusty Krab for over 31 years.

This is indicated in The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie by our hero's 374 consecutive Employee of the Month awards. That may seem like a long time, but the funny thing is, for SpongeBob it isn't. Sponges can live to be 500 years old! 

Before working on Avatar, actor Sam Worthington was living in his car!

He was already an actor in Australia at the time, but Worthington was living in his car prior to meeting James Cameron and landing the Avatar role. Worthington also has worked in the past as a bricklayer. Definitely an unusual background for someone in one of the most successful movies of all time.

Mario's name used to be "Jumpman"

Mario's first appearance in a video game was in 1981's Donkey Kong. We now know of Donkey Kong as a star of his own games, but in the original Donkey Kong game, Donkey Kong was the villain who kidnapped a damsel in distress. Mario, whose name was "Jumpman" back then, had to rescue the damsel by jumping over barrels that Donkey Kong would throw at him. Back then, not only did Mario have a different name, but a different job as well. "Jumpman" was originally supposed to be a carpenter. Also, Mario's signature cap and mustache were added in because it made him easier to draw. The original Donkey Kong didn't have very good graphics, and it was easier for Mario (Jumpman) to have a hat and a mustache than have hair and a mouth.
