TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel has named this one of the worst films they'd ever reviewed. Ebert wrote "I hated this movie. Hated hated hated hated hated this movie. Hated it. Hated every simpering stupid vacant audience-insulting moment of it. Hated the sensibility that thought anyone would like it. Hated the implied insult to the audience by its belief that anyone would be entertained by it." Ebert latee went on to say that the movie made him "cringe... just sitting here thinking about it." Siskel said that it made him feel "unclean." The clip of their review would go on to become a popular Internet meme associated with bad movie reviews. When Rob Reiner was roasted at the New York Friar's Club, he read the review and said "if you read between the lines, [the review] isn't really that bad." Screenwriter Alan Zweibel keeps a clipping of the review in his wallet, sometimes reading it at public appearances. Ebert's review eventually became so notorious (arguably more so than the film itself) that he later released a collection of negative reviews titled "I Hated, Hated, Hated This Movie."

Following Roger Ebert's 2013 death, screenwriter Alan Zweibel wrote a piece for the New Yorker entitled "Roger And Me" in which he recounted bumping into Ebert, introducing himself, then saying "And I just have to tell you, Roger, that sweater you're wearing? I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate that sweater." Then they both laughed and shook hands.

This is the lone film appearance of Brynn Hartman, wife and murderer of Phil Hartman.

Screenwriter Alan Zweibel's son attended school with the son of Hollywood "superagent" Michael Ovitz. One day, the two got into a verbal altercation in which Ovitz's son said, as an insult "your dad wrote 'North'!" Zweibel was happy to learn his son responded with "at least people like my father!"

The acting debuts of Scarlett Johansson and Kelly Cooper.

Popular Dialogues

"Joey Fingers: A bird in the hand is always greener than the grass under the other guy's bushes. It's a metaphor used by gardeners and landscaping people in general."

"Joey Fingers: Remember, kid, if you can't stand the heat, stay out of Miami. North: What metaphor is that? Joey Fingers: What metaphor? You ever been down there in August? Your balls stick to your leg like crazy glue."
