I don't understand why "Why is Applebee's in so many movies?" is getting votes to close. The question seems squarely within the purview of on-topic questions, e.g. "Questions about a Movie or TV show's production" and not in the realm of

  • Locating or purchasing Movies or TV content
  • Technology questions about playing content
  • Unimportant trivia that does not add to the understanding or appreciation of the title.
  • TV news, sports and current affairs
  • A title's release date or rumors about a specific title or series.
  • Opinions about or recommendations for a movie or TV show

    I don't agree with the Close votes that this question has on it, either. I think that it's an interesting question followed by an excellent answer. +1 :) Commented Mar 22, 2017 at 16:18

    It got 2 closevote and rest people left it open. It seems fine and majority of community seems to appreciate it , no need to worry about closevote.

    @Mr.Kennedy Your question was bit edge case so attracted few initial closevote but it's fine here.

I may have voted to leave it open as it seems on-topic to me (since it specifically asks about ) but I can't recall for sure.

BUT...it would seem that some users think it is

Unimportant trivia that does not add to the understanding or appreciation of the title.

I can kind of see the point but I think it's an interesting question nonetheless and deserves the excellent answer it has.
