Our Favourite Trivia:

Feature film debut of Chris Evans.

Chris Evans had trouble shooting his scenes with Mia Kirshner, particularly having to reject her pleas for sex as she was grinding on him, as he was apparently very turned on.

Chyler Leigh has admitted to being under the influence of cocaine throughout the majority of this movie.

The filmmakers couldn't get the rights to use footage from She's All That (1999) so they shot the scene with two different people and made the TV blurry so you couldn't tell.

Cerina Vincent shot more nude scenes, but they ended up on the editing room floor. She said in an interview that one of the kids in the movie was underage, and you can't have a nude actress on the same set as a minor.

The studio was unhappy with the original ending of the film, prompting the makers of the film to seek Molly Ringwald's help.

Good Charlotte is the house band at the prom.

Ron Lester's character, Reggie Ray, is a spoof of Billy Bob in Varsity Blues (1999), who was also portrayed by Lester.

Actor Paul Gleason, the Principal in the detention scene, is the same actor who played the role of the Principal from The Breakfast Club (1985) which they're spoofing.

Lacey Chabert's character is a parody of the character played by Jennifer Love Hewitt in Can't Hardly Wait (1998). The two starred together in Party of Five (1994).

Buildings in the movie are named for makers of the movies that are being parodied. For example, John Hughes High School, Anthony Michael Dining Hall, and Harry Dean Stadium.

In Spain and Greece, the movie was released under the title "This is Not Another Dumb American Movie".

In Russia, the film is entitled "Not a Children's Movie".
