* [[Enforced Method Acting]]: Judd Nelson remained in-character between shooting, and frequently taunted [[Molly Ringwald]] to the point of tears. [[John Hughes]] was on the verge of firing him, when Paul Gleason, ironically playing Principal Vernon,
* [[Executive Meddling]]: The studio wanted a scene involving a sexual situation, since this ''was'' a teen movie in [[The Eighties]] and movies like ''[[Porky's]]'' were still on executives' minds. So Hughes wrote and filmed a scene where Vernon spies on a female teacher (played by [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0394213/ Karen Leigh Hopkins]) swimming nude in the school's swimming pool. Obviously, [[Subverted Trope|Hughes ended up cutting out this scene entirely]] because it hurt the tone of the film.
* [[Real Life Relative|Real Life Relatives]]: Anthony Michael Hall’s sister Mary Christian and mother Mercedes Hall plays his character’s Brian Johnson’s sister and mother.

** In addition, Rick Moranis was originally cast as Carl, but he left due to creative differences and was replaced by John Kapelos.
