Trivia
The word "dude" is spoken a total of 98 times throughout the movie (including the scene after the credits). 21 of these are during Coop and Remer's "dude" argument.

During the scene in the hospital, these lines are all improvised by Parker and Stone. Remer: "I'm giving her all I've got, Captain." Coop: "I love you, I always have."
Share this
During the hospital scene where Coop and Remer are "attempting" to bring little Joey back to life, Coop requests heart paddles, calling them "the little things George Clooney uses." This is a reference to when Clooney was on E.R. (1994). Clooney would later cameo as Dr. Gouache in South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (1999).

Goofs
When Coop visits India, the cars are driving on the wrong side of the road, and the taxi's steering wheel is on the wrong side. Drivers in India drive on the left side of the road, so the steering wheel should be on the right.

Coop sings "And I should've been gone" to which Remer replies "I thought we said no more Journey Pysch-Outs." This line isn't actually from a Journey song, but "Oh Sherrie" from Steve Perry's solo album Street Talk.

At the end of the movie, we see a US flag with only 48 stars.

Quotes
Joseph R. Cooper: If I had a nickel for every time that ball pulled me out of a tight spot, I'd have a shitload of nickels!
Share this
Baxter Cain: When I see one of baseketball's hottest stars with less than 20 dollars in his pocket, driving an American car and sharing a small house with two other guys, you know what that says to me?

Joseph R. Cooper: [repeated psyche-out] Steeeeve Perry!
