Chris Wedge reports on the DVD commentary that Robin Williams performed the scene with Fender and Rodney attempting to get past Tim eight times in eight different accents, including as a Polish valet.
The filmmakers wanted the music score to sound like it was recorded by the "Robot Philharmonic". To that effect, they hired performance artists Blue Man Group, known for performing on musical instruments made from industrial piping and other found objects, to do special percussion effects.
A special rendering tool was created specifically to randomly place the pips on every domino in Bigweld's workshop.
Rivet Town was designed after Watertown, New York, because director Chris Wedge grew up there.
Rodney Copperbottom's design is inspired by an old Evinrude outboard engine in Chris Wedge's garage, as well as on a Volkswagen van. An early version of Rodney makes a cameo, as the green robot with the jet pack, waiting in line during Bigweld's television show.An internet search will reveal dozens of outboard motors from the 1940-50s, all of which serve as beautiful examples of the "mid-century modern" style of designs. Many of the elements of these motors pop up in this film in various guises.
"Fender: You consider me a friend? Rodney Copperbottom: Sure. What else would I consider you? Fender: I don't know. An embarrassment? A way to rebel against your parents? A desperate cry for help? The list is endless."
"Crank: [Mr. Copperbottom is playing badly] Well there goes our happy ending. Fender: Yo, it's a fusion of jazz and funk. It's called junk."
