Yes this needs a total rewrite, npot to be overly offensive but it is quite poorly written, I havent seen the film but am going to see it, and so will try and improve it myself afterwards.172.215.83.135 (talk) 16:05, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Hi - I attempted to clean it up somewhat. I guess that there is still some room for improvement. (Galaxycat (talk) 18:27, 2 October 2010 (UTC))

Production Notes
When George is introduced to all the guys in the car, you can see his present to Sam reflected in the back window, although George is holding the present in his hand. The commentary claims that they used a second prop but didn't realize it was reflecting in the scene in the window.
 * The names that Marty says during shooting practice are all names of various cast and crew members.
 * Rocky's fantasy includes a girl named Susan Johnson. Susan Johnson is the name of the film's producers.
 * Sam is not supposed to keep on laughing on the boat. Culkin could not control his laughter so they left it in.
 * When Sam tries to coax Rocky to call off the prank, George interrupts him and then scratches his head. Scratching his head was actually supposed to be Marty's cue to say his line.
 * When Rocky jumps into the water to save George, a glimpse of a blue wetsuit under Rocky's t-shirt is slightly shown. Josh Peck, who played George in the film, was also wearing a wetsuit under his long sleeve shirt, due to the fact that the water temperature was 9°C (49°F)
 * Hagai Shaham is credited as being the "handsome" police officer (he is also a producer of the movie).

Trivia

 * Mean Creek is mentioned by Zach Galifianakis in The Comedians of Comedy documentary.
 * Scott Mechlowicz did not actually pull down his pants during the "truth or dare" scene on the boat. It is revealed during the DVD commentary that a "stunt butt" was used for that particular scene.
 * It was never mentioned if George had a father living at home.
 * The case # is 3668543.
