Corrected entry: Filkins's age is inconsistent. When the taunted boys are in the principal's office, they are told Filkins is an emancipated minor (17 or younger). Later at Filkins's party, the taunted boys tell Drillbit Taylor that Filkins is 18.
Drillbit Taylor (2008)
1 corrected entry
Directed by: Steven Brill
Starring: Owen Wilson, Josh Peck, Alex Frost, Ian Roberts, Troy Gentile, Nate Hartley
Genres: Comedy
Revealing mistake: Even though Drillbit's pinkie was supposedly cut off by the sword, you can see it is just bent out of sight.
Emmit: You're the bitch.
Filkins: Huh?
Emmit: Aaaaah that's right.
Trivia: When the boys are interviewing the prospective bodyguards, Adam Baldwin has a brief credited cameo as one of the bodyguard possibilities who states, "Kids hiring a bodyguard to take care of a bully? Stupidest thing I ever heard!" Particularly amusing since this references Adam's first film My Bodyguard, during which he becomes a fellow student's bodyguard.
Question: Does anyone know what song the kid sang when he came out from behind the tree on Drillbit's date? I feel like I should know the song, but I don't.
Answer: It's "Hero" originally recorded by Enrique Iglesias but preformed in the movie by Adam Ho.
Correction: Filkins's party is his birthday party, marking his turning 18.
