Trivia

One of the subplots of the movie is that White pursues Kate, who is repulsed by him, and the two end up arch-enemies. Hopefully this is not art imitating life, because Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor have been married since 2000 and have two kids. See more...

Mistake Continuity: When Ben Stiller goes to the girl's house in the white suit - she slams his head into the wall and a blood/makeup stain shows up...when the camera angle changes the stain is gone.

Mistake Continuity: During the final game when Justin is by himself, you can see Owen sitting on the bench without his track suit. When he throws the ball at White you can quickly see in the background Owen is standing behind Justin with his track suit on. Few shots later it cuts back to the bench and he is sitting down with the rest of the team with the uniform minus the track suit.

Mistake Continuity: When Martha Johnstone falls on Justin during the cheerleading tryouts, her skirt falls up and is laying on her back; they show this in a front view; but when they switch to a side view, her skirt is back down covering her bottom.

Mistake Continuity: When the guys are all sitting around (after the car wash) they are throwing ideas to save the gym. In one shot Gordon pulls his magazine out of his bag, but a split second later in a closer shot he pulls the magazine out again.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter first leaves his house near the beginning of the movie, he throws his empty bottle at a lawn chair, and it bounces off onto the ground. In the next shot, when he drives away, you can see nothing on the ground and what looks like the bottle now lying on the chair.

Mistake Continuity: When White is sitting down with Kate at her house, he shows her the red flower he picked from her garden. The first time, the flower looks crumpled and a bit damaged, from the other angle it is perfectly fine.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter opens the door to his file closet to show Kate his paper work, the door on the left changes from being open wide to just slightly open throughout the scene.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene when Gordon gets angry seeing his "mail order wife" with another man you can see the dancers in the background, behind Gordon, just standing around. When the camera pans out they are all dancing and celebrating. When it cuts back to Gordon they are just standing and leaning against the pole.

Mistake Continuity: During the first game against the Germans, Peter launches a ball and misses a player that ducks but the ball hits a bald player in the leg behind him. That player should have been out.

Mistake Continuity: When the Average Joes wins the tournament, fans rush the court as well as the cheerleaders and bondage people. The very next shot the cheer squad and bondage folks are in the stands.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where Gordon is talking to Peter about the OSQ magazine about midget tossing, right before Gordon hands him the magazine, Peter has an orange juice carton in his hand. In the next shot you see him holding the magazine with both hands empty, with not enough time to get rid of the orange juice.

Mistake Continuity: In the first cut at the car wash you can see a white car behind the lifted truck in the background. In the very next scene the car is gone. There is no way the owner got in the car and drove it away in 2-3 secs.

Mistake Continuity: When Justin is trying to rally all the boys behind saving Average Joe's, he throws a blue icepack on the couch when he stands up. When it focuses back on Gordon, the icepack is gone. When they show Gordon again, the icepack is back.

Mistake Continuity: When Peter meets Lance Armstrong and they are talking, Lance has a bottle of water in his hand. As the camera keeps changing shots from Peter to Lance, the bottle of water changes back and forth from having a cap on it to not having a cap on it. There's no time for Lance to have taken it off and put it on that many times.

Mistake Continuity: In the first scene that Vince Vaughn goes to global gym to confront Goodman, Vince and Ben are talking to each other. During the conversation, you can see a woman working out on a fitness machine behind Vince. When the shot widens as they are leaving, neither the machine nor the woman is there.

Mistake Continuity: After White knocks the food onto the Average Joe's players in the bar, Owen is holding a martini glass in his left hand. The following shot, the martini glass has disappeared.

Mistake Factual error: In the scene where White is trying to bribe Peter with $100,000, he sits the briefcase on the table and opens it. The money is right in the middle of the case. It's not secured in any way, so surely it should have been at bottom end of the case.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene when Peter is talking to White about the deal, Me'Shell is standing in back of Peter. In the first two shots his hands are on his hips, in the third shot his left hand is over his right wrist on his stomach, and the next shot his hands are on his hips again.

Mistake Continuity: In the scene where White and Peter are going back and forth at each other in the Dirty Sanchez, White's "G" charm around his neck keeps going from forwards to backwards from shot to shot.

Mistake Continuity: When White pushes the waitress into the table at the Dirty Sanchez, she takes the tray with her as she stands up and walks away. In the next shot, Gordon moves the tray off the table.
