Continuity mistake: In the jogging scene, Carl is dropped off after an all nighter with Red Bull. In the shot where he is lying down on the ground, Allison squats down on her knees to take a photo of him. In the very next shot it shows her still taking the picture, but now she is only slightly bending her knees. (00:49:35)

Other mistake: When Jim Carey drives up to the Griffith Observatory, the sun is in the southeast for most of the scene (they are north of the building), but in a few of the shots you can see that the shadows are going northeast, meaning the sun is in the southwest, meaning it is late in the afternoon rather than early in the morning.

Continuity mistake: When Carl arrives to notify the girl that he likes Redbull, he is wearing a glow stick necklace. During the course of the next couple of scenes, the necklace changes positions and the color becomes stronger towards the end.

Factual error: When Carl is driving the scooter, he starts to swerve out of his lane until a car just off-screen honks at him. The lighting was such that the off-screen car should have cast a shadow into Carl's lane.

Carl Allen: I do want to take guitar lessons. I do want to learn how to fly. Yes, I would like to learn Korean.
