This is something I've been wondering about for a bit: when the mayor proposes his plan to Flint, he has Brent there to hold the cue cards. But I can't figure out exactly why. I mean, I understand why storywise, since it shows the beginning of Brent's fall from grace, but in-universe, why did the mayor seek out Brent to hold these cards? Did Brent just happen to walk by and the Mayor grabbed him? And why would Brent agree to do it, anyway?
(Feel free to use this thread for any movie-related issues you want to hash out.)

Also, I wonder how long Flint was still fooled by "Your shoelace is untied!" after he got the spray-on shoes?

#1 Maybe since the mayor was a good friend of Brent, and he's the one who made the island famous at first as baby brent...and maybe he didn't think of anyone else... #2 I bet he may have been fooled at first(following my theory that he has Asperger's) then maybe he wasn't fooled anymore after a while So we don't waist this thread, we can use it to explain all the things we don't get about the movie, and hope we have anwsers -Cody The Maverick

I want to know how Flint's hair stayed intact when he tested out the rocket thrusters on the Flying Car Mark II. The large plumes of blue fire erupted right over his head. How did his hair avoid it?

Actually half of his hair did got blown off in the movie. After the ratbirds got him to the ground safely you can see he has a big bald spot on the back of his head. I'm still surprised his cloths didn't get burned, just stained with food.

Hmm... Maybe flame from explosion of was thouched only Flint's hair, his right shoulder and right side of coat (its was smokes when ratbirds put Flint down on the ground)? Labcoat has black stains from fire in final scene.

I just had a thought today: what if "Raining Sunshine" is actually the hit song from the musical "Five Guys With Umbrellas" (seen in the New York scenes)?

there's one thing that's bugging me!
in the movie, flint's lab gets knocked over by masses of food. the elevater is ripped off the ground as well. HOW comes tim leaves the lab through the toilet-thingy (doesn't know proper translation for this thingy)? he couldn't have possibly gotten out through a window, then went into the toilet-thingy, just to get out of it again?

vhills: I've been wondering that for a while, too. Maybe he climbed out with a rope...? I'm also wondering how the mayor drives his wierd scooter thing without using his hands. It just GOES, as if it's controled by his mind! XD
