Notes:
Sharon Stone was initially asked to play the quarry temptress, Ms. Stone, before Halle Berry. The voice of the original Wilma, Jean Vander Pyl, seventy-four years old, was cast behind Dino in the congo line. Alan Reed, the original voice of Fred Flintstone, invented the phrase, "Yabba-dabba-do!" THE FLINTSTONES grossed a record-breaking $37.5 million in its first weekend, Memorial Day, on its way to a total haul of $130 million. Flintstonian fast food was offered at over 15,000 McDonald's world-wide. Copyright 1994 Universal City Studios, Inc. and Amblin Entertainment, Inc.
