Goofs

Revealing mistakes: When Julie and Tommy are at the restaurant towards the end getting back together, he puts the bracelet on her wrist and he doesn't hook the clasp on it. It obviously falls open on the table and she looks like she is going to laugh but they keep going. He then eats her burger and she does not move her arm so the bracelet doesn't fall all the way off.

Randy: That techno-rock you guys listen to is gutless.
