If you've been religiously reading everything you can get your hands on about Harmony Korine's Spring Breakers, you've already got a few go-to pieces of trivia to throw around at the bar. Number 1, Gucci Mane fell asleep during his sex scene in the film. Number 2, the line repetition in the film is meant to mirror EDM music. And Number 3, James Franco's character Alien is inspired by Dangeruss, not Riff Raff. You've probably overused those by now.

Fortunately, just in time for summer rooftop BBQs, the Spring Breakers DVD and Blu-Ray is dropping tomorrow, and it's ripe with deleted scenes, audio commentary, outtakes and behind-the-scenes featurettes. But who actually watches those extras? Well, we do. Here are the craziest things we learned about the movie from its DVD special features.
