Trivia

• Sandler means “cobbler” in Hebrew.
• When Max gets home from work and opens his fridge to pick a beverage, he has two options: a beer or a Yoohoo. The Yoohoo is a nod to Adam Sandler’s film Big Daddy (1999) when he explains to the kids on the playground “Ya know what’s good? Yoohoo with a bit of rum.”
• Dustin Hoffman was cast as Sam because he had been cast to play Sandler’s father in Little Nicky (2000) years earlier but was passed over for Harvey Keite
• Max’s parents names are Sarah and Abraham, which is a reference to the very important Jewish people Sarah and Abraham of the Torah and the Old Testament of the Bible.
