* The deaths of six teenagers from the same school in one night is probably big enough to make national news, complete with pictures. One has to wonder if any of the people Blaire spoke to on Chatroulette will see and recognise her picture as the girl who was begging them for help on the night she died, and how they will feel about it (particularly the ones who were less than helpful).

* If you notice [[spoiler: Adam's death is less brutal than the others. It is because he was the only one who never did something bad to Laura, as you can see by the Never have I ever messages that involve someone doing something bad to Laura, he was never found guilty of those. ]]
** Actually, [[spoiler: Adam did do something bad. Blaire admitting that they had all made accounts to cyberbully Laura because "everyone else was doing it too".]]
* At one point on Blaire's screen we can see that she is seeding a torrent of a Saturday Night Live episode. [[spoiler: She ends up being the cause of all this in the first place.]] [[DigitalPiracyIsEvil Subtle jab at pirates?]]

During the "Never Have I Ever" game, [[spoiler: Mitch admits to kissing Laura, but claims she came on to him and he rejected her.

* When Val's Skype appears again, [[spoiler: you see her looking at her laptop screen with no emotion for two solid minutes before she falls over dead. It's clear that she poisoned herself to death by drinking bleach, but instead of showing signs of being sick, like a person who drank a dangerous chemical like bleach would, she sits motionless.

Added Fridge about Laura's Catholicism.

Added DiffLines:

* Laura is a Catholic, or at least, she chooses to identify as a Catholic, as shown from her Facebook page. In traditional Catholic theology, suicide is considered a mortal sin (as it would imply that one had dominion of their life over God) and would condemn someone to Hell. After billie227[[note]]Laura's possessed account[[/note]] reveals herself to be the one posting Val's drunken photos, Val threatens to go to her place, but billie227 warns that "she would not like it here". As in, she would not like to be in Hell?

!!FridgeBrilliance:

* One thing I really liked about the movie is how Laura was a victim of cyberbullying, and so in order to turn the friends against each other she uses exactly the same means that cyberbullies use: spreading rumours and gossip, sharing incriminating photos and videos, telling the characters things behind each others' backs and so on, until they no longer know who they can trust.
