Trivia:

Ethan mistakenly lends his mother an adult film entitled "Dawson's Crack." This is obviously a spoof on the hit WB series, "Dawson's Creek." David Monahan played the recurring character of Tobey Barret, Jack McPhee's boyfriend, on "Dawson's Creek."

Goofs:

Continuity: Leo, when handing Ethan the "save-the-date" card, tells him that he and Chester Baer will hold their commitment ceremony on June 1. In the next scene, when the Hat Sisters are reading the card, it reads "the second day of August."

Quotes:

Hat Sister: There are three things I know in life: One, you make your own reality and destinies. Two, no matter where you move, no matter how many times you move, there will always be an International Male catalogue on your doorstep, and when you open it you'll feel fat. And number three, if you want something, really want something, for all the right reasons, grab it by the balls, and don't let go.

Me and the audience LOVED!

I just wanted to give a quick review and say that I really enjoyed this movie. I saw it at a gay film festival in Austin, and the audience was in a constant laughing uproar. I don't know what film festival the other review went to, but I think it was in D.C.

I didn't notice any bad acting. I quite enjoyed it. The dates he went on and the people he met were all too real. It very-much resembles the gay scene in a humorous way. One of the last scenes was very American Pie style, and it was a riot! Loved every minute of this movie.

As a gay guy, previously straight, I enjoyed this movie and hope it sees a DVD soon.
