Did you Know...?
 
To help audiences sympathize with Max when he first starts to get revenge on his tormentors, the writers pushed the envelope and went for extreme examples of bullies, says writer James Greer. "We didn’t want these to be bullies that you’ve seen before."

For director Tim Hill, the most challenging scene was the food fight. "Anyone who saw what we needed to do predicted disaster," he says. The filmmakers had to figure out how to get kids to move on a floor that was super slippery without getting hurt, "But everything was well planned, and we were very prepared for that scene when we came to it."

Another challenging scene for the crew to film was an animal stampede involving more than 40 dogs, ponies, emus, cows, goats, sheep, pigs, and two dozen birds!

Larry Miller, who plays Principal Jindraike in the film, says a great model for a school principal in a comedy is Jeffrey Jones in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. "We've just taken things a bit further," he notes.

The cast includes some newcomers to the big screen: supermodel Amber Valletta (Ms. Dingman), country singing star Chely Wright (Max’s homeroom teacher), and former Miss Junior America Brooke Anne Smith and singing sensation Myra (as two "cool" eighth-graders).
