Trivia

• The Death Ball would also be known later on in Season 6 as the permanent lair of Dark Laser.
• When Trixie says that comedy and animation are the lowest forms of entertainment, this is the creators poking fun at themselves since The Fairly OddParents is an animated comedy.
• This is the only episode where Doidle appears without Vicky.
• This is the last episode where Michael Warner is the sound effects editor. Starting with Abra-Catastrophe!, Robert Poole II is the new sound effects editor.
• Moral: Don't cut your friends out of a project just to gain recognition for yourself or impress a girl.

Allusions

• The music played over the title card is a soundalike of "Hooray for Hollywood".
• Sundance Film Festival - The Dimmadance Film Festival is a spoof of that film festival. The audience clapping to Tad and Chad's film (while laughing at Timmy's) for two weeks straight is a reference to the tendency of standing ovations at film festivals, where audiences would applaud a beloved film for 10-25 minutes straight.

Comparison between Dimmy Award and Emmy Award statuette

• Emmy Award and Academy Awards - The Dimmy Awards is a spoof of the Emmy and the Oscars.
• Jurassic Park, Gladiator and Star Wars - Timmy's first cruddy and second professional movie both feature references to those films.
• Death Ball - A reference to the Death Star, Darth Vader's lair from Star Wars.
• Arnold Schwarzenegger - Arnold Schwartzengerman is a pun on the famous actor and former governor of California.
• Last Action Hero - Arnold Schwartzengerman portraying Hamlet in Tad and Chad's film is a reference to a scene from the film where Schwarzenegger portrayed Hamlet in a movie.
• Sylvester Stallone - Sylvester Calzone is a pun on the famous actor.
• Rocky - Sylvester Calzone punching critics (and boxing attire in one scene) is also a reference to Stallone's role in the movie.

Goofs

• Timmy, Cosmo, and Wanda don't seem to know what killed the dinosaurs in this episode (after they see the meteor that was supposed to kill them is a dud), but in the Really Bad Day, it was confirmed that Wanda caused the extinction of the dinosaurs.
• Chester, A.J., Sanjay, and Elmer's seats are constantly switched in the scene where they are previewing their movie in Timmy's Treehouse.
• At the final scene, Timmy's left hand is bigger than his right hand.
• A.J. stated that the actor who replaces him has a lot of hair, but the actor used in the better movie was completely bald.
  • It's possible that the actor's hair was covered up by a bald cap or special effects.

Quotes

Bus Driver: Announcing the arrival of Trixie Tang. Passengers prepare for submission.

(Trixie walks onto the bus, students begin to bow and grovel before her)

Trixie: Not worthy.

Sylvester Calzone: As you may or may not be aware, Dimmadance is where I punched out my first film critic and got my big break by winning this- [holds up Dimmy] The much sought-after Dimmy award.

Crowd: Ooooh!

Sylvester Calzone: It's what legitimized me as a film maker and a critic puncher. (punches out Chet Ubetcha)

---

Timmy: Mom, Dad, can I borrow the video camera?

Mr. Turner: No way, son. We're making a documentary called "Stupid Questions Our Son Asks Us!".

Timmy: Why would you want to make a movie like that?

Mrs. Turner: Oh, that's a GREAT stupid question!

Mr. Turner: Yes! Ask some more, we're getting Dimmy-award winning gold here! And Trixie will totally talk to us!

---

Veronica: (reading) Timmy Turner presents a sneak preview of the greatest movie ever?

Trixie: Wow, just the fact that he might win a Dimmy makes me totally consider noticing him!

---

Timmy: (speaking on stage) Trixie Tang! ...and other kids I'm NOT trying to impress... I'm filmmaker Timmy Turner, and I present to you: THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER MADE!

---

Elmer: (in Timmy's movie, dressed as a gladiator) We who are about to die, salute you! (bangs sword to chest plate) Ow, my chest!

Chester: You've turned off your targeting computer! Is something wrong?

Timmy: Yeah! My dad's not happy about my friends jumping on the car!

A.J.: It was a masterpiece!

---

Timmy: (reading the letter Trixie left him) You stink! Attached is a photo of my hand, please talk to it!

Arnold Schwartzengerman: (as Hamlet) To be, or not to be... ANNIHILATED! (pulls out rocket launcher and shoots everything)

---

Arnold Schwartzengerman: Ulrich, I'll be back. (dies, comes back to life) With weapons. (dies again).

(the movie ends)

Timmy: Ha! They hated it!

(the crowd stands up and starts cheering and applauding)

(Two Weeks Later)

---

Timmy: (about Tad and Chad's movie) Well, I still have a chance to beat them in the competition, right?

Mr. Turner: Oh! Swwwweeeet! (to Mrs. Turner, filming) Did you get that? Tell me you got that!

---

Timmy: Tad and Chad's film kicks my film's butt. I've got to make a better film.

Cosmo: What part of magic, fairy, and godparents are you not getting here?

Timmy: But it's a competition!

Wanda: True. But if you just happened to go where cool action stuff was happening...

Timmy: ...and I brought my film equipment with me and just happened to catch something on film...

Cosmo: ...and if I just happen to tear this page out of Da Rule book that says we can't help you... (Cosmo then tears a page out of Da Rules that reads "You can't help him.")

Timmy: ...then I would have shot a Dimmy winning film! C'mon, let's make the greatest movie ever! For real!

---

Sylvester Calzone: You're the species, I'm the extinction! Ahh!!

---

Gladiator: We who are about to die, salute you! Wait, we're about to die? Wait! STOP! STOP!!!

---

Timmy: (After the movie ends) Well, guys? Is that going to kick Tad and Chad's movie or what?

Chester: But you replaced me! With an actor with better teeth!

A.J.: And more hair!

Sanjay: And a well-oiled chest! What!? Am I the only one that noticed? This is... an OUTRAGE!!!

Timmy: Yeah, but it's better. Right? (Timmy's friends reluctantly murmur in agreement) I mean come on, guys. The first version stunk. Besides, we can be Trixie-impressing-award-winning-critic-punching winners with this.

Chester: Don't you mean you can?

Timmy: Um, duh! (Timmy's friends leave in disappointment) Wow, they really seemed upset.

Wanda: Well, Timmy, they were proud of it, and you cut them out of the film.

Cosmo: Just like a sleazy-Hollywood dirtball! Congratulations, Timmy! You're finally a filmmaker! (Timmy looks disappointed)

---

Timmy: Why won't they stop laughing!?

Sylvester Calzone: Not to be a critic, but your film STUNK.

Timmy: What are you, some kind of critic?

Sylvester Calzone: Kid's got a point. (punches himself out of chair)

---

Chet Ubetcha: And the Dimmy goes to... Timmy Turner! For best comedy!

Wanda: You won! Which is weird because you weren't even entered in that category!

Cosmo: You were so bad you were good!

---

Sylvester Calzone: (still continuing to punch himself) C'mon, is that the best I've got?

---

A.J.: Timmy! You did it! You're an award-winning film maker!

Timmy: Yeah, but I couldn't have done it without you guys. And I'll never desert my friends again! (pause) Now excuse me while I desert you to talk to Trixie! (dashes off)

---

Timmy: Hiya Trixie! I'm a film maker! An award-winning film maker! Want to see my award? That I got for my film? That won? HERE? (Timmy gets no response) I don't understand! Why isn't she talking to me!?

Trixie: Because anonymous voice from nobody, you won for comedy, and everybody knows that comedy is the second lowest form of entertainment next to animation.

Tad: Besides, we're still rich. We only did this because we were bored.

Chad: Yeah, c'mon, let's go be rock stars now! (Tad and Chad run off)

Trixie: Oh my gosh! I just realized! I'm totally in love with rock stars! (Trixie runs off after Tad and Chad)

Timmy: (sighing, to his fairies) Do you think I'll have a shot if I was a rock star?

(Timmy's parents appear next to him, filming him with a camera)

Mr. Turner: GOLD! We're already filming our sequel, "Stupid questions our son asks other people!"

Sylvester Calzone: Ooh, doh! Come on, is that the best I got? Ooh! Doh! What are you, a pansy?
