Trivia
Director Tony Martin had a rule that everyone who worked on the movie had to be seen on screen. Only the focus puller refused, but Martin got lucky when the reflection of that particular crew member is seen in the security guard's window during the Northey/XL9000 scenes. Martin decided not to use optical effects to remove the focus puller so that his rule was obeyed by everyone. Martin reveals this in the DVD commentary.

Quotes
Ted Pratt: Yep... I smell fuckwits.

Crazy credits
The characters, entities, events and scenes depicted in this film are fictitious. Any similarities to actual persons, living or dead, or to actual entities or events are purely coincidental. Except for the bit where dog bit the sprinkler. That really happened.

Alternate versions
Deleted scene included on the DVD:
Just before the scene with Ben and Julie at the pub, there was a short (29sec) scene where Ben meets Julie at the Melbourne Tribune and makes a half-arsed apology. There follows a joke at the expense of Jerry Maguire (1996).

what was going on?

this film had some laughs, not bad, but not great. the major letdown however was the storyline, i sat in the theatre for the majority of the film wondering what the hell is going on, having occasionally the few laughs that had no real relavance to the storyline itself. the ending was rather poor, so was the character development, and so was the acting (actually, considering most of the lead characters in the film werent actors, you can say they did a decent job).

if you have a spare 10 bucks in your pocket and dont know how to spend it, and you feel like you have nothing to do in the next 3 hours, then go see this movie. otherwise, save the money for another movie.
