- The story came from George Nolfe's (as transcribed) spec script Honor Among Thieves, once set for John Wu (as transcribed), rewritten for the Ocean's characters, like the Simon Says script that became a diehard movie.
- Peter Fonda filmed a scene as Linus's father that was cut; Bob Einstein (Super Dave Osborne, Marty Funkhouser) took the role in Ocean's 13.
- Soderbergh is assumed to be a Curb fan, though it does not appear in his culture diary.
- Movies referenced include The Sixth Sense, the Dennis Quaid film In Good Company and Miller's Crossing, with Johnson Turo (as transcribed) begging for his life.
