Goofs

When Sandy is talking to Arsenio at the newsstand, you can see two billboards for Jean Claude Van Damme's Timecop and Alec Baldwin as The Shadow. While the Timecop billboard is correct, The Shadow was released in July and was such a horrible box office bomb, it was out of theaters by the end of the month and would not have still had a billboard up on the Sunset Strip.

Crazy Credits

After the first part of the end credits, we get one more wedding testimonial from Mike Judge (playing himself). While the second part of the end credits roll, we hear a prank call that Sandy receives. It's Judge doing the voices of Beavis and Butt-Head (1993). After a few minutes, we see Adam Sandler and Judge recording the conversation.

My ears are bleeding

My sister decided to put this on. If I knew Adam Sandler was in it I would have stopped her. Adam Sandler's character voice is worse than the sound of a dental drill chizzeling teeth. And why is it every role Adam plays he acts the exact same. This movie was defiantly made to torture people. I'll be honest I'm not going to finish this movie. I'm going to clip my toe nails and that would be more fun.
