5 What event occurred in New York City that allowed Audrey II to be found by Seymour Krelborn?
Answer: Total solar eclipse

We see Seymour's boss early on reading a newspaper with the story on the "unexpected solar eclipse". Seymour tells his boss that a Chinese man sold him the plant after Seymour discovered it in the man's flower shop. The Chinese man had no idea he even had it but he sold it to Seymour anyway for $1.95.
6 Which song from the 1986 movie was based on the song 'You Never Know' from the musical?
Answer: 'Some Fun Now'

They gave the song a faster beat and slightly different lyrics, but the message remained the same.
7 Who said the line? 'Now, spit!'
Answer: Orin, D.D.S.

8 Told to us by song lyrics and from viewing the sign front, you can name the shop on the floral district where Seymour bought the plant. What is it?
Answer: Chang's

You hear it in the background vocals; the singers sing "Chang Da-Doo" in the song "Da-Doo".
9 From where on his body, did Seymour feed Audrey II at the beginning?
Answer: His bleeding finger

This was until Audrey II became really hungry though.
10 Who portrayed Mr. Mushnik, Audrey and Seymour's boss?
Answer: Vincent Gardenia

If you liked him in this performance, you should see "Moonstruck."
11 What does Mr. Mushnik do to Seymour in the musical that he does not do in the 1986 movie?
Answer: adopts him

In the catchy tune, 'Mushnik & Son', Mushnik asks Seymour to be his Junior, which makes it all the worse when Seymour allows the hungry Audrey II to eat his new dad in 'Suppertime'.
12 Who said the line? 'What an interesting plant!'
Answer: Customer 1

13 The plant spends some of its earliest time growing in a coffee can from a very popular coffee company. What coffee is on the label?
Answer: Maxwell House

The classic blue Maxwell House label adorns the coffee can, which Audrey II outgrows quickly after Seymour discovers her favorite food. (Or his. Theories abound both ways on the gender of the plant.)
14 In the song 'Somewhere That's Green', which line from the musical is changed slightly for the movie?
Answer: 'Our kids watch that 'Howdy-Doody' as the sun sets in the west.'

The line is changed to 'Our kids play 'Howdy Doody'...' so they could show the parents watching their children playing. Rick Moranis gives a classic proud father headshake and smile.
15 Who said the line? 'Hey, where did you get that shiner?'
Answer: Mr. Muschnik

Referring to Audrey's black eye.
16 In "Little Shop", we find Audrey has a rather sadistic boyfriend, Orin Scrivello, a dentist played by whom?
Answer: Steve Martin

The song done by Steve in his introduction in the movie was barely altered from the original Broadway play. Orin insists his girl refers to him as "Doctor".
17 Which magazine did Seymour receive an offer from, to appear in a photo shoot?
Answer: Life

This was also mentioned in one of the many musical numbers!
18 What color outfits in the proper order did Ronette, Chiffon, and Crystal wear when they were singing?
Answer: Blue, Pink, Green, Red, Gray, White, Silver, Purple, Black

They wore blue in the opening, pink in "Skid Row," green in "Da-Doo," red in "Some Fun Now," gray and white in "Dentist!," gold in "Suddenly Seymour," red in "Suppertime," and black in "The Meek Shall Inherit."
19 How many more people get eaten in the musical than in the movie? (This does not count the thousands of people in the cities mentioned in 'Don't Feed The Plant'.)
Answer: 2

Only 2 people actually die in the 1986 movie. These are: Orin, the psycho dentist, and poor Mr. Mushnik who knew too much. In the musical, Audrey II also munches on Audrey and, finally, the vengeful Seymour.
20 Which actor did NOT make a special guest appearance in the movie?
Answer: Ron Howard

Chris Guest played Customer 1, Bill Murray played the Masochist, and John Candy played the Radio Host.
21 Prior to Orin Scrivello's demise he had one last patient. Who played this rather joyful patient?
Answer: Bill Murray

This role was not in the original play, it was added for the movie. And the bulk of Bill Murray's lines were improvised during his masochistic willingness for hardcore dental work.

Christopher Guest and John Candy were both in the movie in cameo roles.
22 What did Orin say that he used to shoot with a BB gun?
Answer: Dogs

What a nice child!
23 What song does Orin sing in the musical that is cut in the 1986 movie?
Answer: 'Now (It's Just the Gas)'

Instead of singing, Steve Martin just talks and gasps while Seymour watches him die.
24 Seymour's boss, Mr. Mushnik, gets Seymour between a rock and a hard place and gets ready to turn him into the police. Mushnik uses his knowledge to try and blackmail Seymour into doing what?
Answer: Giving Mushnik Audrey II and leaving town

While Mushnik held Seymour at gunpoint getting him to go to the police for butchering Orin the dentist (who was actually dead already), he says if Seymour leaves town forever and gives Mr. Mushnik the plant exclusively, he would forget it ever happened. This goes badly for Mushnik as he is eaten whole by Audrey II.
25 Who did Audrey want to look like in her fantasy life with Seymour?
Answer: Donna Reed

She also wanted to cook like Betty Crocker!
