  • Dawson Casting: Averted with Sam and Ted; Molly Ringwald and Anthony Michael Hall were sixteen when the film was made. Played straight with other characters, and lampshaded with Jake's girlfriend, Caroline (played by 25-year-old Haviland Morris) who, Sam remarks "had to flunk about nine grades."
  • Hey, It's That Guy!: Isn't that Joan Cusack AND John Cusack cluttering the background?
  • What Could Have Been: Jim Carrey auditioned for Ted, Ally Sheedy auditioned for Sam, and Viggo Mortensen was in the running for Jake.
