* PlayingAgainstType: While Rogen has played jerks before, he earned his fame playing likable schlubs. Many viewers expected Ronnie to be along a similar line, rather than the seriously disturbed man that he is.
* VindicatedByCable: The movie was not marketed properly before release (with advertising hyping it as the R-rated ''Paul Blart'', rather than the ''Taxi Driver''-inspired extreme BlackComedy it was), and critical reception at the time was mixed, ranging from horror to confusion. Years later, the film finally started to gain a cult following and has since garnered a number of positive appraisals from writers.

Writer/Director Jody Hill's original intention was for Ronnie to actually [[spoiler:date rape Brandi through and through.]] Hill caved in to studio pressure to have [[spoiler:Brandi]] say something. "Why are you stopping, motherfucker?" made this one of the funniest scenes in the movie.
