Trivia
There are plenty of real life references packed into the film, such as...
Mentioning Cody Massey-Besterman and Parker Besterman as had to have been banished in the past.
Mentioning Connie Bauer, who was given the same Jesus candle seen in the film for Christmas in 2023.
The candle itself is a reference to the grade school attended by Logan Bauer and Ryan Sams, Sacred Heart of Jesus School.
The use of the A-Team theme music calls back to the announcement of the Triumvirate as editors-in-chief of Volume 32 of The Blueprint, where the song was also present.
"Use Somebody" by Kings of Leon and "Chip Chip" by Gene McDaniels are both songs often referenced in real life.
"Chip Chip" was played in 2019 when the 50s on 5 channel of SiriusXM was turned on randomly, and the song has stuck since.
"Use Somebody" has been belted out in the Blueprint Office regularly since 2024, often to end Flexes or free bells.
Grayson Beckham attending the University of Notre Dame is set up by the film.
The following review of the film was written by Zohair Siddiqui after his viewing of the film at 9:07 PM on March 6th, 2025:
"A Day in the Life of Logan Bauer is a storytelling masterpiece that details the compelling story of protagonist Logan Bauer facing St. Xavier villain J.B. Wuxim. While the plot is full of unexpected twists and turns, including (Spoiler Warning) J.B. Wuxim appearing in the back of Logan’s car, there is much to be derived beyond the film’s thrill. One important motif seen throughout the film is Logan’s isolation throughout different parts of his journey. His friends, Grayson and Jake, abandon him on the quest for J.B.’s location as well as Karis, Logan’s sister, when it comes time to find an item to banish the villain. The film highlights the idea that at the end of the day, man must learn and fend for himself. However, this concept is contrasted with the notion that you’ll always have some help along the way. When Jake prevents J.B. Wuxim from delivering the finishing blow on Logan, when Andy accompanies Logan to Jungle Jim’s, when Ryan heightens the power of Catholicism to banish J.B. Wuxim. The people around us are what makes us—and that’s why this film is special." -Zohair Siddiqui Blueprint ‘23 Super Senior IMDb Movie Critic
The Kanye West / Jay-Z song "That's My Bitch" is credited as "That's My Buddy" in the credits for censorship reasons.
The use of "Scamper Shores" was inspired by its use in The Super Mario 3D World Experience (2021).
The film had an informal premiere in the Blueprint Office on March 6th at Flex.
In the shot introducing Mr. Federle, Ben Manfroy can be seen peeking through the glass of the door.
Shots of the Durango used in this film were referenced for the sketches seen in A Walk in the Park (2025).
Jake Dougherty repeatedly has sexual innuendo lines in the film, such as "I might hook up with you later" and "I finished just in time."
Mr. Schaeper can be heard in the Cafeteria Annex search shot of the video, where he says "What are we doing?"
The emojis in the background of the conversation with Karis Bauer change each shot.
