Hilarious in Hindsight: Given that Robert Downey Jr. here plays a friend of Huck, the sight of Iron Man being friends with the Hulk, but not the Hulk with whom they famously formed the "Science Bros." is hysterical. No wonder their relationship is actually quite chilly here!
YMMV for the novel:
Harsher in Hindsight: When JoLayne is pressing Tom to name an African-American musician he likes who isn't dead, Tom brings up Prince, who would pass away in 2016, nearly 20 years after the novel came out.
Hilarious in Hindsight: Mary Andrea is appearing in a musical version of The Silence of the Lambs when she gets wind Tom's divorce lawyer has caught up with her. Eight years after the novel came out, Silence! The Musical, a musical parody of the movie, opened in New York City.
