Trivia

  • The names and descriptions of Bolted Birdcage and Birdcage acknowledge both Valve's insinuations of Pyro's insanity and the Community's speculations of Pyro's gender and identity; particularly, the 1996 movie The Birdcage is a remake of the 1978 La Cage aux Folles (literally "birdcage of fools"), which is famous for its examination of gender roles and sexual identity.
