I noticed something in the very beginning. When Ming sees our planet and asks its name, he acts like he's neaver heard "Earth" before, yet on one of those switches, he can create "Earthquakes"!
That is strange. If they'd never heard of earth, where did they learn English?

King of the impossible

He's a miracle

Yes it was a rental car according to the book.

It was probably a rental since he was staying at a hotel up in Canada to clear his head before the big game.

Back to the comment about Flash rolling up in the station wagon. Maybe he was just a frugal kind of guy. He certainly was not a stuck up country club snob! He was willing to save everyone of us! What a nice guy!

I've wondered about that, but I think an explanation is that I think Klytus
says "Earth" in a derogative way, as if the inhabitants of the planet called it "Dirt".

This is the only thing about the movie that stands out to you?

Maybe it was a lender from the hotel. But when he leaves the car to get on the plane, he just leaves the window wound down.
Jeez Flash it was crappy weather with hail stones falling. Thats not cool!

IIRC, that is not his station wagon. It belonged to the hotel he was staying at.

He had some trouble with PETA.
Wait a minute who am I here?

It's just a guess, but if he is anything like other pro football players, he's probably swamped in bad used car ventures, home foreclosure, gold diggers, and child support.

I'm guessing it's a rental car, not his own wheels.
Everything will be OK in the end, if it aint OK,it aint the end.

He's being driven there from the hotel he was staying at.

Not too sure about the car (good point though) but I remember reading somewhere, may have been the novel, that the shirt was sent to him by a female fan and he wore it in the hopes of meeting her. Never said the movie was well planned out.

ikr, there was also no NY Jets lol.

In the original comic strip Flash wasnt a football player he was a polo player.

It's based on a comic strip from the 1930s. Footballers made very little back then.
