Factual error: At the resolution of the movie when Filkins is sent back to Hong Kong, in the shot there is a banner written in Hiragana (one of the Japanese alphabets), not Chinese.
Drillbit Taylor (2008)
1 factual error
Directed by: Steven Brill
Starring: Owen Wilson, Josh Peck, Alex Frost, Ian Roberts, Troy Gentile, Nate Hartley
Genres: Comedy
Revealing mistake: Even though Drillbit's pinkie was supposedly cut off by the sword, you can see it is just bent out of sight.
Emmit: You're the bitch.
Filkins: Huh?
Emmit: Aaaaah that's right.
Trivia: When the boys are interviewing the prospective bodyguards, Adam Baldwin has a brief credited cameo as one of the bodyguard possibilities who states, "Kids hiring a bodyguard to take care of a bully? Stupidest thing I ever heard!" Particularly amusing since this references Adam's first film My Bodyguard, during which he becomes a fellow student's bodyguard.
Question: Does anyone know what song the kid sang when he came out from behind the tree on Drillbit's date? I feel like I should know the song, but I don't.
