Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaFor years, there has been a rumor that the scene at the Turtle Club happened to be filming on September 11, 2001. When word of the terrorist attacks reached the set, the cast and crew observed a moment of silence (with Dana Carvey already in the turtle costume). This is not entirely correct. What actually happened was that the film didn't even begin production until September 24, 2001. The "Turtle Club" scene was the first scene they shot. Everyone felt weird to make such a silly movie after such a terrible tragedy. Right before they filmed, director Perry Blake gave a heartfelt speech to the cast and crew, there was a moment of silence (yes, Dana was still in costume) and then Blake called "action".
- GoofsWhen Pistachio and Jennifer go to the toy convention to find Bowman she says her name is Barbara, and Bowman invites her to his house. When Pistachio comes looking for her at the door (as the German Guy and the Snobby English Guy) he says he needs to talk to Jennifer Barker. Wouldn't he ask to see Barbara instead of Jennifer? Also Bowman knows her as Barbara and didn't say anything about him calling her Jennifer.

Pistachio Disguisey: Am I not turtley enough for the turtle club. Turtle, turtle, turtle!
- Crazy creditsDuring the final credits, there are scenes from a wedding between Pistachio Disguisey and Jennifer, as well as Dana Carvey hamming it up in several disguises, some 'bloopers', and Dana acting out scenes from other movies/shows.
- Alternate versionsIn the UK, to avoid a '12A' rating, a series of headbutts were removed. This cuts seven seconds.

Featured review
...but it wasn't. It had cameos almost as good as "Goldmember". It has a babe as babe-esque as "Men in Black II." And though it did have a running fart gag, it wasn't as gagging as Fat Bastard's. It was...well, restrained. Dana Carvey wasn't doing Jerry Lewis. His character actually was trainable and actually could take care of himself, push come to shove. And that was worth an extra point up the rating scale.
