Trivia: Nicolas Cage suggested swapping parts with Pedro Pascal at one point, and having Pascal plays the "character" of Nicolas Cage while Cage would play his biggest fan Javi. He thought it might give the movie a weird, extra-meta edge. But the idea was quickly dropped when he realised Pascal was perfect for the part of Javi.

Trivia: In the movie, all of Nicolas Cage's tattoos are hidden with makeup and his nickname is spelled "Nick" instead of the usual "Nic" to subtly indicate that while the character is indeed inspired by the real-life Nicolas Cage, it's an exaggerated "movie version" of him.

Trivia: Nicolas Cage originally didn't want to make the film, as he felt uncomfortable with the idea of playing himself in a movie. The director wrote him a very nice note, explaining why the movie was important to him and how they wanted to celebrate Cage's wild and varied career, which won Cage over.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Cordy and Buffy are tied up, at one point Marcie the invisible girl punches Buffy. As it cuts from a closeup of Buffy back to a wideshot, the position of Buffy's head and the expression of her face instantly changes between cuts. She goes from having her head crooked with a pained expression and her eyes half-shut to having her head straight with a shocked expression and her eyes wide open.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When the invisible girl pushes Buffy, and she falls through the ceiling and onto a table, the position of Buffy's arms changes slightly between edits when it cuts to a high-angle shot of her knocked out. Some of the debris around her also changes position.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: This is subtle and hard to notice. When Buffy is explaining that something bumped into her in front of the school after Giles explains what it's like to be touched by a ghosts, pay attention to Xander. In the first shot, he's standing about two feet back from Buffy and his left shoulder is behind Willow. In the next shot he's suddenly much closer to Buffy and Willow is no longer in front of his left shoulder.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: In the beginning when the Scooby gang and Giles are talking in the cafeteria and Giles asks Xander to help him, in the first shot Xander doesn't have his hand on his drink, but when the shot cuts to the opposite angle, suddenly he has his right hand grasping the dop of his drink.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: In the beginning of the episode, when Cordelia's date is in the locker room and he talks to two other students, pay attention. There's a combination lock and a baseball bat on top of the lockers. They change positions repeatedly between cuts, getting closer and further apart almost at random depending on the shot.

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: When Cordelia is talking about hitting the girl on a bike with her car and the bell rings, pay attention to Willow's hands. As it cuts from the front angle to the back angle, Willow's hands instantly change positions. (In the first shot, her hands are together, but in the next, her arms are crossed in different directions).

Out Of Mind, Out Of Sight - S1-E11

Continuity mistake: This is subtle and hard to notice. When the teacher is giving a lecture in the beginning, she says "Ok, so talk to me people " and starts to turn and walk to her right. When the camera cuts, she starts to turn and walk to her right a second time. It goes by fast, so it's kinda hard to see.
