TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Danny Trejo loved playing his role because he doesn't get killed and he didn't have to kill anyone else.

The scene in the club before the mud wrestling was all improvised by Jake Gyllenhaal and Ping Wu, including the "FIVE HUNDRED DOLLAR!" line.

Jake Gyllenhaal loved falling over for fun in the bubble suit, at random times during filming.

Jake Gyllenhaal later said in interviews that the original screenplay was a dark comedy with very odd undertones, actually quite similar to Donnie Darko (2001) in style. Studio interference turned the final film into a typical teen comedy.

The tattoos on Danny Trejo's chest "Debbie" (his wife) and "Danielle" (his daughter) are real, and were crossed over for the movie.

Popular Dialogues

Jimmy: Yes please, I would like five hundred dollars. Emcee: You want five hundred dolla? Jimmy: Yes I want five hundred dolla! Emcee: Five hundred dolla! Jimmy: Five hundred dolla! Emcee: Five hundred dolla! Jimmy: Five hundred dolla!"

"Jimmy: I'd rather spend one minute holding you than the rest of my life knowing that I never could."
