    • Trivia
      Adam (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is based on screenwriter Will Reiser, who was diagnosed with cancer, and later recovered. Seth Rogen (Kyle) helped Reiser cope with his disease, and convinced him to write a screenplay during their early twenties together.
    • Goofs
      When Adam is running in Seattle at the beginning of the film, the Lion's Gate Bridge in Vancouver, BC is seen in the background.
    • Quotes

      Rachael: Why am I the bad guy?

      Kyle: Because you're his girlfriend, you cheated on him, and he has fucking cancer, you lunatic!
