Quotes:

  • T.S.: How do I do that?
     
  • Renee: Brodie, I've always taken you with a grain of salt. On your birthday, when you told me to do a striptease to the theme of "Mighty Mouse," I did it. On prom night at the hotel when you told me to sleep under the bed in case your mother barged in, I said okay. And even during my grandmother's funeral when you told my relatives that you could see her nipples through her burial dress, I let that slide. But if you think I'm gonna suffer any of your shit with a smile now that we're broken up, you're in for some serious fucking disappointment!
     
  • Shannon: I'm gonna fuck you up beyond repair!
     
  • Brodie: He must be halfway to Buy Me Toys by now.
     
  • [to T.S.]
    Brodie: You're gonna listen to me? To something I said? Hasn't it become abundantly clear during the tenure of our friendship that I don't know shit?
     

Trivia:

  • The MagicEye "sailboat" picture is actually a 4 x 3 matrix of geometric shapes consisting of a cross, a circle, a diamond, a star, 4 segmented circles and 4 cones.
     
  • The original beginning of the movie tested poorly and was replaced by one that was filmed in L.A. The original beginning contained an incident at the Governor's Ball (the one mentioned by the TV execs).
     
  • T.S. picks up a Clerks hat in the fleamarket.
     
  • After failing to see the sailboat image, Ethan Suplee's character wanders over to the stage, and gives a frustrated wail while holding on to a frame. This is a parody of a scene in Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back, in which Chewbacca omits the same cry while holding on to a support strut.
     
  • The Wile E. Coyote blueprints used by Jay and Silent Bob were drawn by producer Scott Mosier.
     

Credits Fun:

  • Jay and Silent Bob will return in Chasing Amy
     
  • Thanks to Mom and Dad for having sex all those years ago
