Dawson Casting: All the high school kids, to the point that the joke about Micah being several years older than the others does not work since they all look the same age. Made more jarring since they managed to get actual 14-year-olds for the flashback sequence, making it look like the characters aged 10 years from 8th to 12th grade.
Hey, It's That Guy!:
- Penny Pingleton, Lyle, Keely/Marti, Dan Humphrey, James, Phoebe and, last but not least, Wichita!
- I didn't know Hilary Duff's friend from A Cinderella Story was gay.
- A Clockwork Orange's Alex DeLarge as the stern, by-the-books principal. Some Irony, there.
- This troper and her friend actually shouted --in unison-- "LORETTA!" when Olive's mom entered the frame.
- Olive's Dad is Stanely Tucci one of the premier Hey, It's That Guy! guys.
- Olive's Mom is also Melinda!
- Miranda from Lizzie McGuire turns up apparently clean after her meth bust and rehab.
Real Life Relative: Emma Stone's brother is a prominent extra at the party where Olive "does" Brandon.
Star-Making Role: Put Emma Stone on the map (though some credit could be given to Zombieland).
What Could Have Been:
- The movie was initially written as a hard-R adult comedy which featured, according to the writer Bert Royal, 47 F-bombs. This gives a little more credence to Olive's response to Nina, knowing that "twat" was probably originally a case of Country Matters -- it would certainly make the principal's reaction a bit more justified.
- Emma Stone's audition, included as a special feature on the DVD and Blu-Ray releases, reveals that the original script had Brandon as the source of Olive's middle-school crush, and he was the boy that she lied about kissing during "Seven Minutes of Heaven".
