Customer: Look, I took the liberty of examining that parrot when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place was that it had been NAILED there.
Owner: Well, o'course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that bird down, it would have nuzzled up to those bars, bent 'em apart with its beak, and VOOM! Feeweeweewee!
Customer: "VOOM"? Mate, this bird wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! 'E's bleedin' demised!
Owner: No no! 'E's pining!
Customer: 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This parrot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the perch 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible! THIS IS AN EX-PARROT!

Sergeant-Major: Now, I would just like to point out that this film is displaying a distinct tendency to become SILLY. Now, nobody likes a good laugh more than I do... except, perhaps my wife... and some of her friends. Oh, yes, and Captain Johnson. Come to think of it, most people like a good laugh more than I do, but that's beside the point! I'm warning this film NOT to get SILLY again! Right!
 
The song "Do It For Our Country" is a duet between Sharon (Maureen Teefy) and Louis (Peter Frechette). However, Maureen Teefy couldn't make it to the recording of the song, so Peter Frechette had to sing the whole song himself, which is why on the movie's soundtrack, Maureen's vocals are not included. Later, Maureen's voice was dubbed in, but her voice didn't make the soundtrack's final cut.

Didi Conn explained in a 2003 interview why her character Frenchy disappeared about halfway into the movie. She said when they began filming, the script was not even finished yet, but the draft they were using still had her character in it. However, the script was rewritten once again during filming, and her character had been written out, and she was told halfway through filming that she was no longer needed. Then, during the editing process, the filmmakers ultimately decided to include her character Frenchy in the final cut, though they had limited footage. Didi described the filming process as "rushed, frantic, and unorganized".
 
During filming, the two leads Michelle Pfeiffer and Maxwell Caulfield did not get along. A few years after the film was released, Maxwell said in an interview that he and Michelle "got along infamously". Michelle has also stated in an interview that Maxwell was "self-adoring".
