    When did the imdb trivia page turn into Wikipedia?
    For one, John Cusack does NOT hold up an Anal beep CD at the release party, but the correct one (I Sold My Mom's Wheelchair-or whatever it was).
    Also Lauren does NOT use a Shakespearean line during the propsal scene but says something completely different. Cusack says he thouyght wasking was the most important thing to which she says "And you did. Thanks." She never gives him a yes or no answer in that scene.
    WTF, imdb? I used to love the Trivia section but if you're going to accept secondhand beep then you lose face with the internet and that's a deadly thing for your business.

      Thank you for bringing this up. I have noticed this on a lot of IMDb pages.

        She does say "I do, I will", sarcastically, though it is probably a stretch to tie it into Shakespeare.

          Yeah, Wikipedia is never accurate [citation needed]! It has no credible content [citation needed]!

            Then go and delete it, you lazy bastard. You have an Imdb account, so go and do some updates instead of whining.

              The IMDB staff does not write the trivia or the goofs.
              IMDB users post all of that stuff. The problem is that it is approved at random, usually without any verification.
              So, if there is an error, YOU can submit a change or deletion. That is very clear to anyone who looks at those pages in their entirety.
              Why is that so hard to understand for some IMDB users????
