Is it worth a section regarding the ridiculous number of cameos in this film? Cary Elwes as a newscaster, Flea and Kiedis as the rednecks, Ron Jeremy as a cameraman, and many more. If it's worth doing, I'll try to get a complete list. ThuranX 15:28, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia has been curtailing alot of the plot summarys in articles on films, citing that such detailed descriptions of said films might violate copyright. While we all know that Copyright as it stands today is totally broken, but these are still the rules. The summary, while as-yet incomplete, is still failry long and detailed. I suggest that it be shortened a bit further to avoid this nag in the future.

Image:Thechaseposter.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Somewhere in the dusty corners of my memory, I recall reading in the late 1990s an interview with someone from Epitaph Records (probably Brett Gurewitz) wherein this film's soundtrack is discussed. The gist, if I recall correctly, is that Gurewitz was approached to provide a Bad Religion track for the soundtrack, and saw this as an opportunity to get exposure for Epitaph and several of its bands. A deal was struck in which the soundtrack would heavily feature Epitaph bands ( Bad Religion, The Offspring, NOFX, Down by Law, Rancid, etc.) and Epitaph would put out the soundtrack album. I believe the film's credits even say "soundtrack album available on Epitaph Records", although it's been 15+ years since I've seen the film. In the interview, the Epitaph person mentions that they were all set to release it but then the deal fell through and the soundtrack album never came out, which upset the folks at the label and led to their releasing the Punk-O-Rama compilation instead.
I wish I could remember where I read this, as it would make good content for the article if I could track down the source. Alas, I'm having no luck in scouring the internet for this interview, so I'm mentioning it here in case anyone else can remember it or might be able to track it down. If anyone can find the interview or any other sources discussing the film's music, drop a link or other source information here and I'll be happy to utilize it in improving this article. -- IllaZilla ( talk) 22:14, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Not really my kind of film, but this looks like a nice, self-contained article - if a little short. Happy to offer a review.

This looks really nice on a first read-through. Please double-check my edits. I'll be back for a closer look at a few things soon. Josh Milburn ( talk) 17:13, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
Ok; images look good. The film gets a passing mention on the first page of this article, which I think would be a nice citation to add. Three things jump out: 1) It's apparently a remake, which isn't mentioned in this article? 2) A link to road film would be a nice addition; and 3) You could add the tagline with a reference to the article. There's also a useful little write-up about the film here - perhaps you could draw a few things from that? Josh Milburn ( talk) 09:05, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
I'm very happy with your responses above, and I think the article is looking very good. I'm happy to promote. Great working with you - and sorry you had to wait so long for a review. Josh Milburn ( talk) 14:03, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
