Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaTed and John have a conversation on their reactions to 9/11. Mark Wahlberg and Seth MacFarlane narrowly missed being on American Airlines Flight 11, one of the planes that hit the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Wahlberg was booked on the flight, but decided to drive to New York City and fly to California later. MacFarlane arrived at the gate ten minutes late and was not allowed to board. He was sitting in the airport when he saw that his plane had hit the World Trade Center's North Tower.
- GoofsWhen John answer's Ted's call while riding in the car with Lori, John holds his iPhone upside-down (as evidenced by the lock button and headphone jack) for nearly the entire conversation.
- Crazy creditsAt the start of the movie, the Universal 'planet earth' signature sequence appears, and the narration begins. As the narration continues, the camera zooms in to the logo, "Google Earth Style" eventually centering on the action in the young John Bennet's home town.
- Alternate versionsWhen the film proved to be a huge success in Germany, it was re-released in several cities with two different dubbings. One features Ted speaking with a Bavarian accent, the other has him speaking in Berlinerisch.

Featured review
I went for the advanced screening and didn't expect that much from the movie. I knew it would be a good comedy with R rated jokes and didn't know that it would be emotional too!
My wife almost started crying in one scene and suddenly laughed like anything .. Story line is predictable but the main strength lies in dialog, acting and screenplay!
I think people will enjoy this movie and I am already seeing after reading the other's review.
I can only say that your money will not be waste and you will enjoy the movie!
