战争之王之花絮篇
　　
　　1.本片没有任何美国公司在幕后操作，资金来源都刻意排除美国。
　　　　　　
　　2.本片基本上都是根据实际事件，男主角是结合五位军火商人的化身。
　　　　　　
　　3.本片获得军火走私商人相当多的协助。
　　　　　　
　　4.导演、编剧、制片都是同一人(纽西兰籍)——奥斯卡提名编剧 (楚门的世界)
　　　他花了一段时间和真正军火走私商人接触， 而将所见所闻结合成电影剧本。
　　　　　　
　　5.片中使用超过3000把AK47真枪
　　　原因一是因为道具枪比真枪贵 (这是真的……已获各军武网站比较证实 XD)
　　　另原因是有走私商的帮忙，他们的效率比制片公司还要好。
　　　　　　
　　6.经典场景——整排待售的坦克
　　　第一，这些坦克全是真的，而且是属於一个捷克籍的军火商人所有；
　　　第二，该场景拍摄前，还事先知会了NATO (北大西洋公约组织)，
　　　　　 避免造成不要的紧张和误会——军队集结；
　　　第三，这些坦克只肯借剧组拍摄到去年底，
　　　　　 因拍完后，全被拥有者的军火商卖给利比亚……

片中的经典对白（转载）：

There are over 550 million firearms in worldwide circulation. That's one firearm for every 12 people on the planet. The only question is...how do we arm the other 11?
　　在这世界上一共有伍亿伍千万支军火在流通，那就是说每十二个人就有一支枪，唯一的问题是：我们如何让其他十一个人也有枪？(如何把武器卖给那另外的十一个人) 
　　
　　Here, I'd been running away from violence my whole life, and I should have been running towards it. It's in our nature. The earliest human skeletons had spearheads in their ribcages.
　　我的一生都想远离暴力，但其实我更该接近它才对，这是人类的天性，人类最早遗骸的胸腔中，就有矛头。
　　
　　-- What, you opening a gun shop?
　　-- Already more of those in America than McDonald's.
　　-- 怎么，你要开个枪店？
　　-- 美国的枪店已经比麦当劳还多了。
　　
　　Sir, sir, may I interest you in the shoulder-fired SA-7 surface-to-air missile? It's the older Chinese model. Not so effective against modern military aircraft, but deadly if used against a commercial airliner.
　　先生，有没兴趣看看肩扛式SA-7地对空导弹，中国造，过时的型号，用在现代军事战机上或许不行，不过打打商业客机，还是挺不错的。
　　
　　Bullets change governments far surer than votes.
　　改朝换代枪杆子要比选票更可靠。
　　
　　I supplied every army but the Salvation Army. I sold Israeli-made Uzis to Muslims. I sold communist-made bullets to fascists. I even shipped cargo to Afghanistan when they were fighting my fellow Soviets. I never sold to Osama bin Laden. Not on any moral grounds. Back then he was always bouncing checks.
　　除了"救世军"，我卖武器给任何一支军队，我把以色列造的乌兹冲锋枪卖给回教徒，我把共产主义造的子弹卖给法西斯，我还把军火运到阿富汗，尽管他们在打我的苏联盟军，我从来没卖给过奥萨姆·本·拉登，不是因为道德问题，而是那时他的支票总是跳票。
　　
　　-- I don't think you're going just to sell Pepsi-Cola. Is this how you want to be remembered?
　　-- I don't want to be remembered at all. If I'm being remembered it means I'm dead.
　　-- 我不信你回去只是要卖百事可乐，这是你希望被后人纪念的方式吗？
　　-- 我根本不希望留名青史，如果是那样，就表示我已经死了。
　　
　　Since the end of the Cold War the Kalashnikov has become the Russian people's greatest export. After that comes vodka, caviar and suicidal novelists.
　　自从冷战结束后，卡拉什尼可夫(AK-47)成为了苏联主要的出口货物，接着是伏特加酒，鱼子酱和有自杀倾向的诗人。 
　　
　　How many car salesmen talk about their work, huh? How many cigarette salesmen? Both their products kill more people every year than mine. At least mine has a safety switch.
　　卖车的会告诉你开车有危险？卖香烟的会告诉你吸烟会死？每年他们的商品比我的害死更多人，起码我的商品还有个保险栓呢。
　　
　　Do you know why I do what I do? I mean, there are more prestigious assignments. Keeping track of nuclear arsenals. You'd think that more critical to world security, but it's not. No, nine out of 10 war victims today are killed with assault rifles and small arms like yours. Those nuclear missiles, they sit in their silos. Your AK-47, that is the real weapon of mass destruction.
　　知道为什么我追查你到这里？我能选择其它更荣耀的任务，比方追查核武，你认为那对世界和平更重要？不对！今天十个战争受害者中有九人，是死于攻击性来福枪和小型武器，正如你的商品，那些核飞弹？它们还在发射井里待着呢，你的AK-47才是大规模杀伤性武器。
　　
　　Every faction in Africa calls themselves by these noble names Liberation-this, Patriotic-that, Democratic Republic of something-or-other. I guess they can't own up to what they usually are -- Federation of Worse Oppressors Than the Last Bunch of Oppressors. Often, the most barbaric atrocities occur when both combatants proclaim themselves freedom fighters.
　　每一个在非洲的派系，喜欢给自己起一些高尚的名字，解放这个，爱国那个，或者共和或民主什么的，也许他们不知道自己是什么，地球唯一喜欢战争的民族，往往最残忍的暴行都出自声称自己为自由战士的人们。
　　
　　Let me tell you what's gonna happen. This way you can prepare yourself. Okay. Soon there's gonna be a knock on that door and you will be called outside. In the hall there will be a man who outranks you. First, he'll compliment you on the fine job you've done, that you're making the world a safer place, that you're to receive a commendation and a promotion. And then he's going to tell you that I am to be released. You're going to protest. You'll probably threaten to resign. But in the end I will be released. The reason I'll be released is the same reason you think I'll be convicted. I do rub shoulders with some of the most vile, sadistic men calling themselves leaders today. But some of those men are the enemies of your enemies. And while the biggest arms dealer in the world is your boss, the President of the United States, who ships more merchandise in a day than I do in a year... sometimes it's embarrassing to have his fingerprints on the guns. Sometimes he needs a freelancer like me to supply forces he can't be seen supplying. So... you call me evil. But unfortunately for you, I'm a necessary evil.
　　让我来告诉你将会发生什么，这样可以让你有所准备，很快，会有人来敲门，你会被叫到外面去，在过道里，会有一个官阶比你高的人站在那里，首先，他会祝贺你所做的一切，你使世界成为一个和平的地方，你会得到嘉奖或升职，然后他会告诉你，我需要被释放，你会反对，你也许会以辞职来要挟他，但是在最后，我会被释放，我被释放的原因，和你认为我会被判刑的原因是一样的，我和一些世界上称自己为领导人的人打交道，这些人当中有一些人是你的敌人的敌人，世界上最大的军火交易商是你的老板，美国的总统，他一天卖的，比我一年卖的还多，有时，在枪支上找到他的指纹是一件很尴尬的事，有时，他需要像我这样的自由工作者，来支持那些他不方便支持的军队，所以，你称我为恶魔，但不幸的是，对你，我是一个必须要存在的恶魔。
　　
　　You know who's going to inherit the Earth? Arms dealers. Because everyone else is too busy killing each other.
　　你知道谁会坐拥这个世界？是军火商，因为其他人都在忙着自相残杀而最终灭亡。
