Audio problem: In the scene where Van goes to Gwen's house and meets her parents, Richard introduces Van to the doctors in the room. When he introduces Dr. Beaverman, the shot changes and Richard says "OB/GYN" and his mouth doesn't move. (00:42:40)
Continuity mistake: During the scene when Van and his friends are riding in Van's golf cart, just after Van has sex with the secretary, the guy in the back is seen being licked on the face by the bulldog. When the camera cuts to Van he's not being licked. When the camera cuts to Van's assistant he's being licked again. This happens over and over. (00:15:53)
Gwen: Well, I think it takes a lot more than the kind of underwear one wears to define them as a person.
Van Wilder: Like what?!
Trivia: The titular character of the movie is based on comedian Bert Kreischer, specifically a Rolling Stone article written about him when he was in his sixth year at FSU and told the story of "the top party guy at the top party school." The writeup eventually become a movie concept that Oliver Stone acquired the rights to, but the deal fell through and the writers sold it to National Lampoon. Kreischer himself was not involved in the movie, however.
