• When Michael Newman visits Ben Newmans office, the water that Ben gives Michael is VOSS sparkling artesian water from Norway.

• The Newmans' next door neighbors are the O'Doyles. This is a reference to the Adam Sandler movie Billy Madison (1995), where throughout the grades Billy is completing, the family's catch phrase is "O'Doyle rules!" In "Click," Kevin O'Doyle always boasts about his family and himself having high-tech, state-of-the-art gadgets and electronics.

• In "Click", Eric Lamensoff is the guy who gets Hammer's job when he moves to Morrocco, and then kills himself ten years later. This is an homage to another Adam Sandler movie, The Wedding Singer (1998). In The Wedding Singer, Eric Lamensoff is the guy who Robbie and Julia are talking about with Fey, the photographer. He is the one to whom Fey "gave that price".
  
  
• In the lake scene, Adam Sandler's character reminisces his childhood at Lake Winnipesaukee. Winnipesaukee is approximately 50 miles north of Manchester, New Hampshire; where Sandler grew up.
  
  
• The film's premise was originated from a joke by writer Steve Koren. It was only upon a suggestion of turning into a feature, by the girlfriend of co-writer Mark O'Keefe, that the project got started off the ground.
  
  
• Michael Newman's (Adam Sandler) home (when he seems himself in the future) is the same building used as Mel's (Jon Lovitz) home in The Benchwarmers (2006).

• Michael passes on a favor from Mr. Ammer, to which Mr. Ammer replies, "I'll put Swardson on it." Nick Swardson is a friend of Adam Sandler, appearing on Sandler's most recent comedy album, "Shh... Don't Tell" (2004). Swardson is also the Bed, Bath & Beyond Guy who asks Michael to be his friend.
  
  
• Christopher Walken dances in the film, as is his trademark.

• SPOILER: Christopher Walken's character Morty is revealed to be the angel of death. Mortis is the Latin word for death (and is the basis for such words as mortician, rigor mortis, mortality, etc.)
