Andy would go on to say how producer Harvey Weinstein (who co-owned Miramax at the time) ruined the movie, saying "Originally, it was much darker, and Stiller's character was gonna die at the end, then one day Harvey somehow didn't like the ending, so he called this one employee who never directed before to shoot a new ending where he lives without my permission, and that's the version you see on DVD, the original never got released, not even as a bonus feature, and that's how Harvey ruined my movie, I would never work with him again"
in 2017 following multiple Sexual assault allegations against Weinstein, Andy said at a party "You know what Harvey also raped? My movie!"
