Trivia:

The song playing during the phone call montage is "I Love it When You Call" by The Feeling. The lyrics of the song continue "but you never call at all" but this doesn't fit with the theme of the montage when Cam and Chuck are constantly on the phone. Therefore, some of the lyrics are blanked out of the soundtrack, leaving several gaps.

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Cam's speech about penguin mating rituals pertains to Emperor Penguins. All the penguins in her habitat are Gentoo or Chinstrap penguins. Both which have mating rituals that involve nests of stones and shared incubation duties not the months-long endurance trial that Emperor males have to go through.

Quotes:

Stu: If you were a hamburger at McDonald's, I'd name you my McBeautiful Titty Sandwich with titties on top.

Highly Recommended

I really do not understand why I have been seeing so many bad reviews about this one. In my opinion, it is by far one of the most original pseudo-romantic comedies ever~ Not to mention, it was really hilarious. Everyone I knew who watched it really liked it..

I reckon Cook played his role well and hes that sorta character that grows in u. Jessica Alba on the other hand, is hot as usual !! Many of their jokes, yes, i agree some are crude, but If you're in for a good laugh regardless of any morality standings or any crap like that, I promise its money well spent.

You'll come out of the cinema feeling light hearted and happy.. Beware though, it has jokes which are very funny to most people but downright offensive and idiotic to some others - particularly, (no offense meant) over-weight, unattractive women.

Well, either way, I guess the viewers should just watch the movie with an open mind and not take it too seriously. After all, its meant to be a crude comedy. Its given an R rating as well, so u have been warned ! =)
