Trivia: Jason Reitman began writing the screenplay in 2002 when the economy was booming and planned to make it as his first feature. However he had to release Thank You for Smoking (2005) and Juno (2007) so he cancelled it until 2009 but America plummeted into an economic recession. He said the film changed completely because the global crisis and is now presenting a different point of view.
