Audio problem: In the scene at the alumni ball right after Sherman's father says "That's strike three," to his wife, she begins to walk off and he starts saying gibberish things, his head is turned so that you can see his beard. Neither his cheeks nor beard are moving, even though you can hear him making those gibberish noises.

Mama Klump: Well, I hope you fart until your asshole falls out!
Trivia: In the scenes with Eddie Murphy and Dave Chappelle, much of their dialogue was ad-libbed.
Question: Does anyone know the name and location of the buildings used for exterior shots of the Professor's university? Is it an actual campus or some other facility?
