* ThrowItIn: The lady's bathroom scene was improv on the part of Reese Witherspoon... except the bit where she leans into the mirror and says "Has that been on my teeth the whole time?" They had filmed an eating scene earlier in the day, and she had a piece of schmutz stuck in one of her front teeth, and her reaction to seeing it was real. They used it in the film anyway.

* SavedFromDevelopmentHell: The movie was in development since at least 1998, and went through untold amounts of rewrites and numerous cast changes.
* StarDerailingRole: This movie dented Creator/ReeseWitherspoon's career as a leading lady in films.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
** Writer Larry Doyle [[http://ideas.time.com/2012/02/14/why-you-keep-seeing-the-same-movie-over-and-over-again/ in this post]] states that as bad as the final product was, it could've been far worse, as the draft he had to rewrite in 1998 had [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext a man screaming on a wrecking ball]], Subverted ImmodestOrgasm jokes and "urban" slang [[TotallyRadical straight from a middle-aged white man]], and had to rewrite it in six weeks.
** The original script (written in 1997) was a mix of romantic comedy and a HighConcept disaster movie and featured every single monument in New York City getting destroyed. Not surprisingly, almost none of that draft made the final film.
** Creator/SamWorthington, Creator/ColinFarrell, Creator/ChrisRock, Creator/MartinLawrence, Music/JustinTimberlake, Creator/JamesFranco, Creator/SethRogen, and Creator/BradleyCooper were all considered for the lead roles.
