Trivia / Dirty Grandpa

• Completely Different Title: in Latin American countries the film is named Mi Abuelo Es Un Peligro (My Grandpa Is A Danger). In Brazil it's named Tirando o Atraso (Ending the Delay, a slang for sex in the country).
• Trend Killer: Adult-geared sex comedies remained wildly popular for most of the 2000s, but stricter MPAA guidelines post-2010 made it even harder to sneak more intense material. Subsequent attempts at reviving the trend, like Project X (2012), have been widely reviled, while 2011's Bad Teacher and the sequels to 2009's The Hangover were subject to greater scrutiny than previous works. While 2012's Ted and 2014's Neighbors (2014) gave adult comedy a shot in the arm, its reputation was affected in 2016 by Dirty Grandpa. It did well at the box office, but received such an overwhelmingly negative response that subsequent attempts at adult comedy in the same year either became financial disappointments or outright flops. The slipping box-office numbers (aside from lack of success outside the English-speaking world) largely reduced comedy films to direct-to-video/streaming material with the odd limited theatrical release.
