Trivia
- Parts 2 and 3 of the "To Tom Cortini Trilogy" were filmed at the same time over the course of 6 months.
- The storyline for this movie came about during a viewing of the first film, where screenwriter Nate Weiss' mom jokingly asked if the sequel was "going to be all a dream".
- Due to a modification of the New Prairie timeline, the first half of this movie (including the first movie being a dream, the time of year, and Jerry trying to 'change' the future) is no longer canon. Instead, most of the original is considered continuity while shifting into the final act of this film, which takes place inside the warehouse.
- Part 4 of the series had been written; however, scheduling prevented it from ever being made. The storyline was to be the final part in the franchise, taking place a year after the events of this movie and dealing with Jerry and Maria unsuccessfully running "The Family" only to be stalked by Anthony (who survived the ending of this). By the end of the movie, all the characters would be dead, thus ending the franchise. The story for this unproduced film was kept as parts of it are considered canon in the overall timeline.
New Prairie Universe Info
Timeline
The events of this film take place on December 15, 1995.
Out of Canon
While the film is part of the New Prairie Universe, many of the events have been tweaked or adjusted in the official canon. The changes between this film and the actual timeline are as follows:
- Jerry's premonition of the events to happen, his constant flashbacks to the dream in an attempt to change the future, and the summertime setting of the film are no longer part of the timeline.
- Sonny and Anthony being shot and killed in the warehouse. While both are shot, Sonny reveals he's still alive to Jerry and Maria as the three leave together. Anthony's body goes missing and leaves the city for good.
