* BillingDisplacement: An unusual case of an actor being given a supporting credit despite not even having a speaking role. Creator/PeytonRList receives a joint supporting credit with Creator/JakePaul in the opening credits. This is despite her being effectively DemotedToExtra as List’s speaking role and musical number as Courtney, a cheerleader at the school attended by the main characters, were cut from the film, effectively limiting her to a background extra in several scenes. Paul, by comparison, appears fairly prominently in the film, making his crediting fit as well.

* DeletedScene: The soundtrack features a mashup of Toni Basil's "Hey Mickey" and Blondie's "Call Me" performed by Creator/PeytonRList but the mashup doesn't appear in the film. Only a few seconds of "Hey Mickey" appear, as performed by a group of cheerleaders, but the full Peyton List version was cut.

* SleeperHit: Filmed on a shoestring, the movie was a surprise success, earning $17.5 million off a budget of $350,000.
* UnintentionalPeriodPiece:
** The whole "valley girl" archetype is rooted in the 1980s.
** The film's aesthetic drips period-specific 1980s culture, particularly the hair, clothes and music.
** At Suzi's party, the Valley kids are enjoying the sushi platters as Randy and Fred look on, visibly nauseated. Sushi was very trendy in the Valley in the 80s, but apparently unheard of in Hollywood at the time. Nowadays, sushi is quite common across the country, including in Hollywood.
