- Chris Farley is at Apex Mountain, with 100 percent agreement.
- David Spade is a yes; younger viewers know him as the Grown Ups guy, and like Mike and the Mad Dog the two must go together.
- Julie Warner is proposed but countered with Doc Hollywood and its emerging-from-the-water moment; Tommy Boy has lived on more; Michael J. Fox is taller than her there.
- The Midwest is proposed and doubted, with the Packers' Super Bowl the next year and Wisconsin mentioned.
- Brake pads get a 100 percent yes.
- He could not describe what a brake pad does. — Bill Simmons
- 'Holy schnikes' is suggested and liked; Farley reportedly took it from John Candy in Planes, Trains and Automobiles, which the movie resembles; 'son of a' is used about a dozen times.
