Road Trip

Trivia: Todd Phillips has a cameo in the film: He is the foot fetishist who licks Beth's toes on the bus, while she is sleeping.

Malaver

Trivia: When we first see Andy Dick, who plays the guy at the front desk of the motel, he is reading/looking at a Celebrity Skin magazine, with Drew Barrymore on the cover. This magazine was chosen by Todd Phillips as an inside joke, because at the time this movie was filmed, Drew Barrymore was engaged to Tom Green, who plays Barry.

Trivia: The scenes supposedly taking place at the University of Austin were actually filmed at Emory University in Atlanta.

Trivia: Fred Ward plays Kyle's dad, and is only ever referred to as "Earl" - a deliberate inside joke by the writers, to pay tribute to Ward's character Earl in Tremors and Tremors 2, two movies that the writers were big fans of.

Rubin: It's supposed to be a challenge, that's why they call it a shortcut. If it was easy it would just be the way.

More quotes from Road Trip

Question: Why didn't Beth or Josh report Jacob to the faculty for everything he was doing in terms of bothering Beth? Jacob tells Josh to back off because Beth is "spoken for", he tries to win Beth at EL's party, but gets ignored by EL after Josh can't outbid him anymore, so Josh ends up winning, and he even tries to get Josh expelled from Ithaca University by pretending to be his Ancient Philosophy teacher and telling him that he can take his exam at a later date when Josh phones him from a payphone whilst on the road trip to Austin.

Answer: It's funnier if Jacob constantly bothers the characters and gets away with it, and receives his comeuppance in the end in an over the top manner (he forms a suicide cult but is the only member that actually kills himself).
