Continuity mistake: In the scene when Sally is about to audition, another little girl goes before her. When the little girl finishes, there is a shot of her face with her hands on her head. In the shot from behind, we see her put her hands down, but when we see the shot from the front, she is putting her hands down again.
Dickie Roberts: Former Child Star (2003)
Directed by: Sam Weisman
Starring: Jon Lovitz, David Spade, Mary McCormack, Alyssa Milano, Craig Bierko, Doris Roberts, Scott Terra
Genres: Comedy
Continuity mistake: Dickie is finally convinced to take off his gloves for good later in the movie. But not long before this scene when Dickie is making fun of the bullies at school, he has no gloves on the entire time.
Visible crew/equipment: After Dickie replaces the rabbit back in its cage, he sits down with Sam, Sally and the mom with the fence behind them. Through the cracks, you can see crew members rushing by.
Trivia: For some of the movie Dickie is wearing a shirt that says "I Didn't do it" which was a catch phrase of Bart Simpson, another "Child Star."
Trivia: The man playing one of the publishers is Hal Sparks, the man playing the interviewer on "Celebrity Boxing" (deleted scene) is John Henson, and in one of Dickie's interviews, he is on the Craig Kilbourne show. All three men were hosts of Talk Soup.
Trivia: Wham-O, Inc. sued the film company for featuring its Slip 'N Slide toy without its consent.
Dickie Roberts: May I help you? Was I being too loud in my treeehouse?
Dickie Roberts: Insane in the membrane! Insane, got no brain.
Mrs. Gertrude: Aren't you a bit big to be in a stroller?
Dickie Roberts: Aren't you bit big to be on the sidewalk?
Question: When Dickie runs into Leif Garrett at the newsstand, why do they first act like they haven't seen each other in months, and then Leif asks if they're still on for poker on Tuesday? How would they have a poker night set up if they haven't seen each other?

Answer: Maybe Leif called Dickie, or vice-versa, without actually SEEING each other. Maybe it's not a weekly thing, maybe Leif is new to their poker group.
