.Nobody noticed this little slip up in writing.
When Daniel is at the door saying goodbye to his kids and Chris mumbles that the whole divorce was his fault, Daniel asks why, and he says;
"I should have never had a birthday."
Not birthday partybut birthday. As in birthday in general.
The writers forgot to proofread that part of the script before production, but it made it to the final script anyway. It helps that Chris was just barely audible with all of his linesexcept when he was running out of the bathroom. That's the closest he comes to shouting through the whole movie, but even that was slightly muted. Everybody had a birthdayyou get one almost by default. Everybody is born of a mother with the love of a father, after nine months are up, the baby that is everybody comes out, and on that day is your birthdaywell, everybody knows that!
It is impossible to be born and not have a birthday, whether you're conceived in the usual way or not and don't worry, I'm not going to get into where babies come fromI just gave you all a quick anatomy lesson along with this blooper. Also lays to rest the eternal debate what came first, chicken or egg; the egg came first!
Chris says, "I should have never had a birthday."
The closed captions read: "I should have never had a birthday."
The subtitles read: "I should have never had a birthday."
Those who never had a birthday, they were never born. On the other hand, they had never died either. They were never born, never existed. You need a birthday to be able to exist.
