- In the film, Gwyneth wants to break through to become a fat man weighing more than 300 kilograms. For this reason, she had to wear a "fat costume" made of artificial fat to achieve the effect. This suit is very uncomfortable and even breathless after putting it on. She also needs to stick the plastic mask on her face, each time it takes 3 hours to stick, and it takes another 1 hour to remove makeup.
- Gwyneth once took to the streets as a fat girl "Rosemary" during the filming, and went to hang out in the hotel lobby, hoping to learn about the daily life of a fat man.
- The film is the first time that Jack Black has played the leading role, and he has performed weight loss specifically for the role of Hal.
- There is a scene where Rosemary jumps into the swimming pool and splashes huge water splashes. When shooting, two very thick hoses were used to spray water jets from both sides of Rosemary to simulate huge splashes.

What is beauty? The beauty that the public thinks is nothing but the standard that the media and magazines give us our attention. However, the world eats this! Those with inner beauty are all scumbags!

Maybe in real life, everyone really just looks at the appearance superficially.

Mauricio: Uh Hal, it's 10:00, we gotta go.
Hal: [laughing] What are you talking about?
Mauricio: We gotta go do that thing, you know at the place.
Hal: What thing?
Mauricio: Sorry ladies, I gotta steal your dance partner here.
[Mauricio grabs Hal away from the three unattractive women on the dance floor]
Hal: What are you doing?
Mauricio: I am rescuing you.
Hal: From what?
Mauricio: From what? From a pack of stampeding buffalo, that's what!
