Upon the film's release, it earned a perfectly appropriate score of 69 on Metacritic.
At 5 minutes 42 seconds, on the right of the screen, Daria, from the eponymous animated series aired on MTV, is shown.
The entire production was conducted remotely via Zoom conferencing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Smart Beavis and Smart Butt-Head are visually based on Uatu the Watcher from Marvel Comics. Additionally, the portals seen in the film feature a design aesthetic known as "Kirby Crackle," a style of visually rendering energy pioneered by comic book artist Jack Kirby. Kirby was co-creator of Uatu the Watcher.
Although the name of the college Beavis and Butt-Head crash is never officially confirmed, it can be implied that it is Texas State University in San Marcos, TX. This is evidenced when the two enter the college store, we can see maroon and yellow shirts that read "TSU" and "Go Cats!" Maroon and yellow are Texas State's school colors, and their mascot is the Bobcat.
