Tusk

Question: How did Wallace manage to survive in the walrus suit? Like how does he poop and pee? Wouldn't he get sick from eating only raw fish? So many questions.

Answer: He couldn't possibly function or survive living that way. The movie's entire premise was utterly ridiculous.

Question: After Wallace was found as a walrus, why couldn't his friends get him to a hospital to surgically make him human again?

Answer: There's no clear answer but after defeating and killing Howe, Wallace seemed resigned to his fate that he was now living as a walrus and may have refused corrective surgery. It wasn't until the end when Ally said that she still loved him that his humanity began to resurface.

I agree with this, and I also think it wouldn't be worth correcting. He would still not look human.

Answer: They left him as a walrus because Kevin Smith wanted to leave the possibility for a sequel; which is slated for 2024 as "Tusks."

Factual error: At the diner scene at the Gimli Slider, there's an ashtray with a lit cigarette on the table. Manitoba has had a smoking ban in all enclosed public spaces for over a decade.

Trivia: Director Kevin Smith originally wanted Quentin Tarantino to portray the character Guy, though Tarantino had to turn it down. Smith then asked famed actor Johnny Depp to take the role, as he had recently become friends with Depp. Depp immediately accepted, finding the role and the entire script intriguing and amusing. Depp's daughter Lily-Rose also appears in the film (alongside Smith's own daughter) as one of the two clerks at the "Eh-to-Zed" convenience store.
