    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      When submitting his script to studios, screenwriter Adam Herz titled it "Untitled Teenage Sex Comedy That Can Be Made For Under $10 Million Which Studio Readers Will Likely Hate But I Think You Will Love". It was later changed to "East Grand Rapids High", then "East Great Falls High", then "Great Falls", and finally, "American Pie".
    • Goofs
      In Jim's room, you can see that there is no ceiling.
    • Quotes

      Victoria 'Vicky': It's got to be completely perfect. I want the right time, the right moment, the right place.

      Jessica: Vicky, it's not a space shuttle launch, it's sex.

    • Crazy credits
      Travis Barker is credited as Scott Raynor.
    • Alternate versions
      Unrated Special Edition DVD & LD contain some extra scenes from the theatrical release to avoid a NC-17 rating:
      • A slightly different version of Jim humping the pie. The theatrical release included Jim's father catching him with the pie while standing near the counter in the kitchen. The unrated version shows Jim's father catching him laying on top of the pie on the bar in the kitchen.
      • Kevin ejaculating into the cup happens onscreen in the unrated version, whereas it happens off-screen in the R-rated version.
      • An extra, more explicit shot of Kevin and the cup of beer. In the unrated version, the cup with semen in it is clear. In the R-rated version, the cup is opaque.
      • More graphic pages from "The Sex Bible".
      • More moaning from Vicki while Kevin puts the Bible to use.
      • Approximately 5 more seconds of Nadia pleasuring herself on Jim's bed.

    They just do not make them like this anymore
    Can you believe it has been 20 years since this film? It is still funny and amusing. The boys were boys, the girls were hot girls and had long hair and flaunted their bodies and the father was super cool. Nowadays we have Daisy of Disney 'Star Wars' with short hair and looking all 'I have a chip on my shoulder' .. aaarrrgh I am going to stop right there. American Pie is funny and you should watch it if you already have not.
