Line 102:
** Andromeda is shown handing out food to the poor people in the city. So at least she is useful in-universe.
* Kevin was arguably the second lead of the film ''[[American Pie]]'' after Jim, but thanks to the breakout characters of Finch and, particularly, Stifler, by the time the third film (''American Wedding'') rolled around there was really nothing for him to do, especially since his love interest Tara Reid wasn't even in the movie. But because he was Jim's best friend it would've been strange for him not to be in the wedding party so he was basically just around to stand there and hardly say anything.
* ''[[James Bond]]'' using a Walther PPK continues primarily because it's iconic of the character and Walther sponsors the franchise. During the [[Cold War]] the PPK was very tiny for a pistol and being produced by Nazi Germany it couldn't be linked to any country's official operations (Leftover German guns were used to arm proxy states all over the world by both sides of the Cold War and many caches left in Africa and the Middle East have supplied third parties). Now the PPK is horribly out of date with guns that are smaller and more powerful while having better ergonomics (the PPK has a reputation for painful recoil despite its tiny cartridge) are common, 7.65 Browning is relatively rare and illicit arms sales are a far better origin cover than an antique from a war that occurred almost 75 years ago. An attempt to replace it with more modern P5 was made in ''[[Octopussy]]'', but it failed because the movie never mentions the new gun. A more successful attempt was made in ''[[Tomorrow Never Dies]]'' to replace it with the new P99, but this was dropped several films latter.
