Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe poster parodies at the end are all of movies from Warner Brothers, New Line Cinema, or Turner Entertainment. The filmmakers originally conceived of parodies of other famous films, such as The Sound of Music (1965) and Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977), but abandoned them because they would've had to pay licensing fees.
- GoofsAs Danny arrives in Hollywood at the beginning of the film, the Hollywood sign can be seen. The film is set in 1939 so the sign should still read Hollywoodland as it did until 1949.
- Quotes
Darla Dimple: I'm the star! You stupid, stupid cat! I should have drowned you all when I flooded the stage!
[echoing over the PA says "Flooded the stage". The crowd, L.B. Mammoth and Flanigan were shocked and gasped]
Crowd: Darla Dimple! I can't believe it.
[Darla looks around, forces a smile, a weak giggle, grabs Danny, and tries to act all innocent. Pudge giggles and pushes the trap door lever]
Darla Dimple: [as she falls down the trap door, screaming] Max!
Max: [on the Darla balloon, floating over Paris] Oui, Miss Dimple?
- Crazy creditsThere is a statement in the closing credits: "No animals were harmed during the making of this film. Although, some were erased and had to be redrawn."
