In Green's interview on "The Opie and Anthony Show, host Opie said the film had begun to be regarded as "one of the funniest movies ever made". Green said the film had sold a million copies, and that he wished to make a director's cut due to a lot of footage not making the final cut. Green said that he was not trying to make "The Jazz Singer" and that many fans of the movie shout out scenes from the film regularly at his stand-up performance.
