Trivia:

To date, it is the only film to be written and directed by both Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, to not have the word "movie" in the title.

Goofs:

Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): During the scene of the Spartans moving out, they sing "I will Survive". Sonio is clearly seen singing alone, it isn't audible, but you can see his lips singing the song before the music or anyone else is singing.

Quotes:

Traitoro: Stop kicking people into the pit of death! Really!
