Plot: In America, we define ourselves in the superlative: we are the biggest, strongest, fastest country in the world. Is it any wonder that so many of our heroes are on performance enhancing drugs?

Crazy Credits: We know about 3 Crazy Credits. One of them reads:
Credits shake, are being scratched over and turn left-side and right-side up and down.

Goofs: We know about 17 goofs. Here comes one of them:

Trivia: There are 19 entries in the trivia list - like these:
The shot where Schmidt has dozed off while writing a letter in his bathtub is supposed to resemble the Jacques-Louis David painting "Death of Marat".
Listed on a cinema marquee: (Left) Closed for repairs / (Right) Sideways (2004), the next movie directed by Alexander Payne.
