format_quote Elgin Perkins: Hello guys. I'm Mr Perkins, Troy's father. Richard 'Data' Wang: I know Troy. He's that cheap guy. Brandon Walsh: My dad's not home Mr. Perkins. Elgin Perkins: Is your mommy here? Brandon Walsh: (scarcastic) No, actually she's out at the market buying Pampers for all us kids. Elgin Perkins: (feigning laughing) Papers Joe. You can give these to your father to read through and sign. I'll be by to pick them up in the morning. Brandon Walsh: Alright. Thank you. Elgin Perkins: Thank you. edit

stars  The pirate ship was entirely real. All the shots were filmed in the ship, not on separate stages. After the film, it was offered to anyone who would take it, but sadly, no one wanted it, so the ship was chopped into scraps. edit

stars  Richard Donner kept both One-Eyed Willie's head and a model for the ship. edit

stars  Some of the crew members played extras in the film. One cameraman played Mouth's father. Another played the dead man in the freezer. And an assistant director plays one of the cops on the AV scooters on the beach at the end. edit

stars  During the scene where the boys are sitting in the living room watching MTV, they were not actually watching the Cyndi Lauper "Good Enough" video, which was to be developed six months after filming wrapped up. edit

stars  Anne Ramsey really does slap Robert Davi when the Fratelli Brothers are arguing. She was told to hit him as hard as she could. edit
