Dewey Cox's audition, at which he sings "That's Amore," is a reference to Elvis Presley. He showed up at his audition for Sun Records wanting to sing like Dean Martin. Sun owner Sam Phillips refused to record him until he and three members of the Sun house band started jamming on Arthur Crudup's "That's All Right, Mama," which became Elvis' first record.
The screenplay was featured in the 2006 Blacklist, a list of the "most liked" unmade scripts of the year.
The Top Selling singles chart shows Dewey's fictional hit song "Walk Hard" at #4. The 3 songs ahead of it are: You, You, You by The Ames Brothers, No Other Love by Perry Como and P.S. I Love You by The Hilltoppers , all of which were actual hits.
"[after Dewey accidentally barges in a room filled with smoke and groupies] Sam: [coughs] Get outta here, Dewey! Dewey Cox: What are y'all doin' in here? Sam: We're smoking reefer and you don't want no part of this shit. Dewey Cox: You're smoking *reefers*? Sam: Yeah, 'course we are; can't you smell it? Dewey Cox: [Dewey doesn't have a sense of smell] No, Sam. I can't. Reefer Girl: Come on, Dewey! Join the party! [takes a hit off a joint] Sam: No, Dewey, you don't want this. Get outta here! Dewey Cox: You know what, I don't want no hangover. I can't get no hangover. Sam: It doesn't give you a hangover! Dewey Cox: Wha-I get addicted to it or something? Sam: It's not habit-forming! Dewey Cox: Oh, okay... well, I don't know... I don't want to overdose on it. Sam: You can't OD on it! Dewey Cox: It's not gonna make me wanna have sex, is it? Sam: It makes sex even better! Dewey Cox: Sounds kind of expensive. Sam: It's the cheapest drug there is. Dewey Cox: [at a loss and out of excuses] Hmm. Sam: You don't want it! Dewey Cox: I think I kinda want it. Sam: Okay, but just this once. Come on in."
"George Harrison: I just sit here while me guitar quietly whimpers. Paul McCartney: Well, you are the quiet one, so why don't you shut the fuck up? Ringo Starr: I've got a song about an octopus. John Lennon: Jam it up your arse. You're lucky we still let you play drums!"
