- Quotes
Gord Brody: I'm gonna make you proud, Dad...
[starts driving away but brakes and honks as a senior citizen is about to cross]
Gord Brody: GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY.
[continues driving]
- Crazy creditsAfter the credits, the outtake of Tom Green and Drew Barrymore acting goofy continues; they kiss, and disappear behind a wall.
- Alternate versionsAdditional commentary by Tom Green reveals a couple other scenes that were removed:
- A cheese fat dance sequence in the cheese sandwich factory (a portion of it can be seen during the end credits).
- Darren and Gord at the bank, where Gord tells about how he has received a million-dollar paycheck for his cartoon, and Darren notes on how Gord can move out of his parents' home. There's a gag where the end credits roll for two minutes, but Gord breaks the fourth wall and says, "It's not over yet," before the film jumps to the helicopter segment.
- A scene in Pakistan in which Gord and his father play Russian roulette while being held captive.

Featured review
An Atrocity to the Art of Film-making
Freddy Got Fingered is neither clever, nor entertaining, and is certainly not anything more than the masturabatorial direction debut of a fool with a camera. The film has no arc, no genuine plot development, and not a single character is likable (not to be confused with the Byronic-Heros of films like "A Clockwork Orange,"). The vast majority of the scenes serve no purpose at all in the film. Those who claim that the film is not just a 'gross-out' comedy are sadly mistaken. There is no second interpretation of an elephant masturbation scene. It does not 'portray' anything remotely deeper than the superficiality of it's repulsiveness. Those who claim that this film is similar to other shunned films at their debut (references to "A Clockwork Orange" and "The Shining") are using inaccurately transitive properties. It's like saying that since slavery abolitionists of the 1800's were initially unpopular, yet now are heroes, that neo-nazis should be held as heroes since they are presently unpopular. Not to mention that the films cited above were unpopular because they filmed scenes that were supplemental to the plot, yet appeared graphic, and ultimately enhanced the social commentary. THERE IS NO SOCIAL COMMENTARY IN A BABY-SWINGING FILM. And don't try and claim that 'individuality' angle. Charles Manson was 'individual' too. In conclusion, do not watch this film. If you are thinking about watching it because you heard so many bad reviews and think it would be entertaining in it's awfulness, go no further. This film deserves no respect. It is a stain on the art of films.
