THE GEEK BOX
TRIVIA TO IMPRESS YOUR EASILY IMPRESSED FRIENDS

• On the main title screen of the DVD, if you move the cursor down using your DVD remote and highlight the cobra symbol and hit enter it will open an Easter Egg. This Easter Egg is Ben Stiller telling you that while watching the movie if you press enter on your DVD remote everytime he snaps his fingers you will get to see an additional Easter Egg surprise.
• While throwing dodgeballs, actor Ben Stiller managed to break 3 cameras and hit his wife Christine Taylor in the face, all while shooting the same scene.
• Studios were convinced that this film would not make very much money at the box office and many studios passed on this project. 20th Century Fox only agreed to finance the movie with a minimal budget of $23 million dollars, and after Ben Stiller agreed to lower his salary to well under $1 million dollars. The film ended up grossing over $114 million in box office receipts in America alone.
• This film's ending was changed after test audiences indicated they wanted a happy conclusion to the film. Because of this last minute change the final scene after the credits role featuring a fat Ben Stiller talking about cliche Hollywood endings was added.
• If you watch the documentary instead of thoughtful insight you will hear a staged argument between Ben Stiller and writer/director Rawson Marshall Thruber. 40 minutes into the movie the pair storm out and the commentary is replaced by the commentary for There's Something About Mary. However, there is a serious commentary, it is one of the Easter Eggs that has to be unlocked.
