And Maya Rudolph, Minnie Ripperton's daughter (for you old folks like me) as the girl who gets sent 300 to the future.

Not Sure is Luke Wilson.

"Pendejo" literally means pubic hair, but is a general insult like "asshole".

News reporter named "Tylenol Jones".



Great movie. Gets better on second viewing.
