The image of Scorsese with his hands up used with the article.
The envelope made for if ideas were ever run dry for Blueprint articles circa September 2023. A serious article based on Belfort being a character the audience will root for despite him being a bad person was planned to come from this in the October issue, Issue 2.
The ad for the article featured on the front cover.
Trivia
TJ Kaufman has, in fact, not seen the film.
Ryan Sams is, in fact, dyslexic.
Drop the Hammer on 'Em is the slogan for Drew Schlicker's mock trial team, which is why it is his title. He is referred to in the article as "The Hammer".
Jake Dougherty has a graduation year of 2028, which would make him in 8th grade.
Ryan Sams initially had a graduation year of 1831. Get it? It was changed for the final release.
Daniel Rahn's title used to be "avid braille reader" per his request.
Brendan Beluan's title used to be "doesn't LOVE it".
Liam Sackenheim's title and photo make reference to when he "got the Sprite" during the Emmaus Retreat in early 2022. The photo was made infamous when posted on Wilson Bullion's Instagram account. The photo appears as his writer photo.
Daniel Rahn's title, "guru of love" is a reference to the article in this issue from Viewpoints called Daniel Rahn: Guru of Love.
Nhan Luong was initially in Liam Sackenheim's position, but was asked to be removed because he "didn't look sexy enough."
This article marks the first ever Blueprint article with TJ, James, Liam, Ryan and Drew as writers.
Charles Healy's title being "creator of 'stu'" is due to the fact that he thought Ryan Sams's name was "Stewart Stenson" for a long time and called him "Stu."
This is likely the Blueprint article with the most ever writers listed for it at the time of its release. It was outdone later by Building the Perfect Musicfest Playlist (2024).
Did you know? TJ stands for Thomas James.
The article made Mrs. Wood, moderator of the Blueprint, want to watch The Wolf of Wall Street. She later commented that the film was much raunchier than she remembered.
The article was created as a space-filler because of a last-minute article cancellation from another writer.
The Charles Healy quote was made up. It references BlueDesk Concert Series I: Charles Healy and his Award-Winning French Horn.
The idea to write an article based on The Wolf of Wall Street was came up with during October 2023 when Logan Bauer was out of ideas (seen above).
James Oglethorpe's title is a reference to the Ice Spice song "Think U The Shit (Fart)".
It was Charles Healy's suggested to use the Matthew McConaughey quote.
The article's title was initially planned to have "LOVE" be bold, but because making the font used for titles in InDesign bold was not an option, it was scrapped and thus the article was not called "We LOVE The Wolf of Wall Street".
