Why It Crackles

Show Details

This movie makes us bust up laughing…often

- Roseanne and Gary Busey were originally cast as Joe Dirt's parents. After shooting the scene it was decided that Roseanne's star-power was too distracting, and the scene was re-shot with Caroline Aaron and Fred Ward.

- The hardtop that Joe Dirt drove throughout most of the movie is a replica of a 1969 Dodge Daytona, a limited production car built for only one year during the muscle car era of the late sixties and early seventies. Only 503 of the real Daytonas were ever built.

- Each time Robby (Kid Rock) gets dust in Joe's face with his car, the song "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet" is playing. This happens 3 times.
