Continuity mistake: When Andy and Trish argue in the bedroom, the bed is covered in action figure boxes. Between shots just as Andy leaves, a 'Dracula' action figure box disappears. (01:43:10)
The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005)
Directed by: Judd Apatow
Starring: Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, Catherine Keener, Romany Malco
Continuity mistake: When Andy and Trish are in bed for the first time, Trish removes her black top and throws it to the floor. In the next shot it reappears back on the bedcovers, then back on the floor again. (01:10:10)
Continuity mistake: When the drunk girl that Andy picks up at the bar throws up on him in the car, only a little hits his face. When they cut to a close-up, his head and face are drenched in pink vomit.
Trivia: For Andy to get rid of the Teen Wolf look, actor Steve Carell's chest hair is really waxed by an actress, who is a non-professional waxer. Because there would only be one take of this disturbingly amusing scene, they set up five cameras - one on his 'friends', one over Andy, one on the waxer, one for wide shots, and one for close-ups of his chest. This scene was not scripted, so when the waxer laughs and Andy's friends are totally cracking up it was for real. Though it was strongly suggested to Steve to first trim his chest hair or to take a pain reliever before the taping, he refused, wanting to have the full cringe-effect caught on tape. In one close-up a bit of blood is actually seen bleeding up to the surface - it is not CGI. It took about seven weeks for his hair to grow back, much to chagrin of his wife, who wasn't crazy about his 'chest smiley'.
Trivia: The woman teaching the class at the clinic is Steve Carrels real wife. It seems that she is in a lot of things with him because also had a recurring part in Steve Carrel's show "The Office"
Andy: I dated this girl for a while... She was really a... Nasty freak. She just loved to... Get down with... Sex all the time. It was like... Anytime of day... She was like, "Yeah, let's go! I'm so nasty! And I'd be nailing her and she'd be like, "Oh, you're nailing me! Cool!"
Andy: Yeah, they were nice. You know, when you, like, you grab a woman's breast and it's ... And you feel it and ... It feels like a bag of sand when you're touching it.
David: Know how I know you're gay? You like Coldplay.
Question: Was there ever a doll of "The Six Million Dollar Man's" boss in real life, or was it just something the filmmakers made up?
Answer: Yes, try searching eBay for Oscar Goldman million. There are 6 on sale as I'm typing this.
Question: What's the deal with the song Paula sings to Andy in the scene at the store. I have a feeling there's something comical behind it. Does anyone know what she's singing?
Chosen answer: The words translated are "When you clean my room, I can't find anything. Where are you going in a hurry? The football game." Even if you can't understand a foreign language, the last word of the love song is recognizably "football".
