Continuity mistake: In the shot just before Jules' friend asks, "Can you get us booze?" Seth's collar is folded inwards. In the shot just afterward, it's unfolded, partially obscuring the strap on his bag.

I own this movie on DVD.
I've heard about this movie for years now, to the point it seems to have reached a legendary status. But I had never seen it before and it didn't really seem like my kind of movie.
It turned up in one of those 4 pack comedy DVD sets in the Walmart $5 or $3.74 movie bin, so I decided to go ahead and get it.
I watched it, and I didn't really think it was anything special. Maybe I had been hyped up to it too much over the years and it didn't seem to live up to the expectations that would in tale.
That's not saying it's a super bad movie or anything... see what I did there? just that I thought it was okay. About 3 and a half stars I'd say. It's good, but not great or amazing.
And I will say Seth Rogen and Bill Hader were the best part of the movie and did steal the film.
It's an all right movie, I liked it well enough but I don't think it deserves the praise it always seems to get. But that's just me. It honestly just feels like they tried to do American Pie again, but this time with more of a buddy travel movie almost, though more self contained... if that makes sense.
Mistake status: meh, didn't really look for any. Might go through it some day for more.

Seth: He is the sweetest guy. Have you ever looked into his eyes? It was like the first time I heard the Beatles.
Trivia: Actor Christopher Mintz-Plasse was only 17 during the filming of the movie, creating some problems with shooting due to child labor laws. During pre-production, he was not allowed to see certain props or items from the film (such as Seth's phallic drawings), and his sex-scene had to be very carefully monitored and edited, as certain "actions" (such as too much skin, certain types of movements or positions, etc.) would violate the law.
