7. They can use supersonic CGI birds that explode
None of that annoying training of real birds. They will probably include a blatant enviro-message, as opposed to Hitch's subtle one.

In case you don't know the story, they taught a bunch of seagulls that if they landed on a person's head, they'd get a treat. That's how a lot of shots were done. If you keep this in mind, you'll see that in the movie, particularly the party scene, they are just trying to land on people's heads. Really well done stuff, there.

Birds have short memories, and forget their tricks quickly. However, when the shooting was done, they just let the gulls go free, and for a few days there were reports of gulls down at the beach which would mysteriously land on people's heads.
