Line 1:

The filmmakers made a point of keeping many of the film's details secret so as to increase the mystery and hype surrounding it, seeking out unknown actors and using what was originally meant as a [[Working Title|placeholder]] title as the film's actual name. It has mostly gotten negative reviews from critics, though it turned out to be very profitable.

* [[The Alleged Car]]: The minivan at the end of the film, which is missing two doors and has had most of its paint scorched off. Thomas' parents force him to drive it to school as punishment, though his friends think it looks [[Badass]].
* [[Based on a True Story]]: More specifically, based on [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qm61svN4U5g this guy.] Compare the ending of the film to that video, particularly the way that Costa is dressed. The opening of the film also claims that the events of the film actually happened in Pasadena, though the film itself is a work of fiction.
