* The blowfish in the opening scene was intended by [[Russell T Davies]] to be "like ''[[Finding Nemo]]'', but evil" and [[Richard Stokes]], wanted the designs to be as flamboyant as "the lionfish in ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spy_Who_Loved_Me_(film) The Spy Who Loved Me]''". | * The blowfish in the opening scene was intended by [[Russell T Davies]] to be "like ''[[Finding Nemo]]'', but evil" and [[Richard Stokes]], wanted the designs to be as flamboyant as "the lionfish in ''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spy_Who_Loved_Me_(film) The Spy Who Loved Me]''". | ||

* While the fight scene only lasted one minute on screen, much more was filmed, so much that it took a whole day to shoot. 80% of the acting in the scene was done by [[John Barrowman]] and [[James Marsters]] themselves, instead of stuntmen. | * While the fight scene only lasted one minute on screen, much more was filmed, so much that it took a whole day to shoot. 80% of the acting in the scene was done by [[John Barrowman]] and [[James Marsters]] themselves, instead of stuntmen. | ||
* The style of fighting was similar to what [[James Marsters]] was used to, and was, according to stunt co-ordinator Tom Lucy, a cross between Western, martial arts, and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Bourne Bourne]. | * The style of fighting was similar to what [[James Marsters]] was used to, and was, according to stunt co-ordinator Tom Lucy, a cross between Western, martial arts, and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Bourne Bourne]. | ||
* The scene with Jack falling off the building was performed by [[Curtis Rivers]], [[John Barrowman]]'s stunt double. Though Rivers made the stunt to make Jack "look good", Barrowman had to lie on a box over green screen. | * The scene with Jack falling off the building was performed by [[Curtis Rivers]], [[John Barrowman]]'s stunt double.

* While the most noticeable visual effect was John's entrance through the Rift, [[The Mill]] also made inconspicuous visual effects, such as extending the number of crates at the docks. | * While the most noticeable visual effect was John's entrance through the Rift, [[The Mill]] also made inconspicuous visual effects, such as extending the number of crates at the docks. | ||
* [[The Mill]] made three different types of holograms. The projection from Jack's wriststrap device was coloured blue to match earlier appearances, John's wriststrap projected a flashier, full colour image due to specifications in the script, and the golden hue in the projection of John's ex-lover was based on the prop. | * [[The Mill]] made three different types of holograms.

* The first designs of the blowfish costume were visibly different from the final design; the first designs were more fish-like than humanoid. After a humanoid design was approved by the production team, [[Millennium FX]] immediately sculpted the costume to [[Paul Kasey]]'s dimensions. Two versions of the mask were created; one was animatronic, which included mechanical fins, and one was used for the stunt where the blowfish was shot in the head. | * The first designs of the blowfish costume were visibly different from the final design; the first designs were more fish-like than humanoid.
