[edit] Trivia

I deleted a statement in the Trivia asserting that Martin's writing credit was due to him ad-libbing lines. While he did indeed improvise a great deal on the set, as is evidenced on the DVD's featurettes, he also wrote the final draft of the screenplay itself. Here is an interview in which he mentions it: http://movies.about.com/cs/cheaperbythedozen/a/cbtdsm121003_2.htm Matheson 07:15, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

Ninski: Hey how come the trivia part about the animation got deleted?

[edit] Weapon

The weopon in his bag is a flail, not a mace, Although Clouseau calls it a "harmless mace". "The flail is often incorrectly called a mace."

[edit] malformed sentence

"Clouseau immediately gets on the case, and despite his lack of skill, is actually able to make some progress. Meanwhile, Bizu, a person who hates the coach, gets shot by someone at the head." Something wrong but I have not seen it so do not know which way to edit it. Midgley 22:45, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Prequel/Sequel

If you wanted to know correctly, a prequel is something that comes before something.

[edit] French Version

I noticed on the DVD when you turn to Audio Options and put the movie in French. I noticed that the words were sync with their mouths. And they are as well on the English version. Is it possible that they filmed it in both French and English or did they photo-shot their mouth movements, later on.Jim Bart 03:09, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Early casting reports

I have added to the trivia section an item that Mike Myers and Chris Rock were both up for the role and Myers had actually been signed to play Clouseau but pulled out. This is legimate information as both were reported in the media. However I do not have sources immediately at hand, therefore I added a "citation needed" tag; if anyone can provide links to online reports on this I'd be grateful. 23skidoo 22:47, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Award

Didn't this film win an award? On the DVD cover, it says "Award Winner".24.207.214.60 19:17, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Disgrace

This movie is bad. I hate it, even. The Cartoon Pink Panther is great! Steve Martin is funny on occasion, like The Jerk but as time goes by, his act gets older and duller. --69.67.234.220 20:18, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
