My question is how in the world did Roger get on a cliff? Really? Oh look a cliff... I'm goign to climb it so I can finish the rest of my song!
Did Roger have some unknown thing for heights(In the hights..sorry) or something? I mean first OSG on the roof and now What you own (He he) on a cliff? Also throwing fire down off your roof in Rent.... Not a good idea. I mean first off isn't that your heat? And second your liveing in a place where there are a lot of homeless people on the street. Do you really want to set everyone on fire? Or burn down someones cardboard house?What if they don't have cardboard box insurence? What if they still have morgage to pay off? I also don't think that would look to good on Mark's documentry . Since It's about Homeless people and all... "Well yeah so people really need to treat the homeless better and we kinda burned a homeless guys box/house down so.... Don't follow Me and my roomates exaple."

Heh. I saw an interview with Adam Pascal, I can't remember where (might even be on the DVD), and when he started talking about this scene, he was like: «The scene in the desert. Yeaah...  )

That what I thought of when I first saw the movie, and then they even mention that in the Commentary!

Another really Random Thought
In Take me or Leave me why does Maureen put her Jacket on the Ice sculture? First of off The Ice sculture is going to melt faster!! and 2. Then your jacket will be wet.

I don't think it was an ice sculpture. I'm pretty sure it was just a decorative statue.

It looked like an ice sculpture to me...and that is something rich people like the Jeffersons would have at a party like that.

Eh? 
Random thought: In I should tell you. Okay the main thing that just happened two seconds before this song is that you both found out that you where both HIV positive. So I know lets go out into the cold to sing! Our immune systems are so healthy!!! Good thinking!
Random thought that always bugged the hell out of me: It's Winter. Why in the world is Maureen wearing a tank top in Over the Moon? That’s bugged the hell out of me!!
Random thought: Where the f*ck do they get the motor cycle? Really?
Random thought: How the f*ck did they get cell phones. We know this is late 80's early 90's. (The time period is a whole different situation....) When Cell phone where not is wide spread use. Especially for the movie which they set in 89. Also weren’t they quite expense?

Putting a jacket on an ice sculpture will make it melt slower, not faster. It will keep it cool. Not that the jacket they use would particularly do much anyway.

Ice cannot retain heat, ice absorbs heat. The jacket will prevent as much heat reaching the ice from the surrounding air, therefore, it will take longer to melt. Jackets do not warm, they keep contant.

One thing that has always annoyed me to no end. In the movie in the begining when Marks Mother calls. They also put his Dad on. In the show later in the second act Marks Mother says "Even your father says Mazel Tov, Honey call him." Signifying that him and his Dad aren't really on good terms.... So why in heavens name would he be talking to him on the phone?
Another thing that has also..well. Not really a goof. But they are implying something.... On New Years Eve in the movie. When Maureen takes Marks camera and he says "Maureen stop your gonna(Going to) break it. This is not my Bar Mitzvah!" Implying that Maureen was at Marks Bar Mitzah. That would mean that Maureen and Mark knew each other at at least age 13. Not saying this is wrong. Since no where does it state that they did not know each other from this age. BUT this does prove another probleam....
In Happy New Year Mark says "You can take the Girl out of Hicksville but you can't take the Hicksville out of the girl" Implying that Maureen is from or at one ponit lived in Hicksville. Now Marks location is a bit harder. Because we all know the references to Scarsdale. In Tango Maureen " With Nanette Hima-flkashfah (Spelling? Lol I gave up) at the Scardale Jewish Comunity center" And when Marks Mother calls again she mentions there at Scarsdale for New Years. So Marks from Scarsdale. Right? No. We have one slight probealm. I'm pretty sure in the Rent bible (I do not own one if anyone who does wants to check and see or can remember them selfs) I'm pretty sure at one ponit he mentions that Mark is from Queens. I'm trying my best to try to find it. But even if he is from Queens this still creates a probleam. More so for Scarsdale. If Maureen lived in Hicksville and Mark lived in Scarsdale how did they meet before they where 13 and know each other well enough for Mark (Or his family) to invite her to his Bar Mitzvah.
Yup.
Also not a blooper on anything. Just something I find intresting. The number of main people in Rent that knows some of another language that we know of.
We know Mimi must speak some Spanish for her mother is speaking Spanish when she calls her. In the movie Angel speaks some Spanish. Which may I add seems like Collins understands. So I guess that would mean he would know a bit of Spanish to. Unless he was just laughing..Cause... Seeing as Mark accroding to the movie had a Bar Mitzvah, and in La Vie Boheme. Collins and Roger know the Kaddish. Something they probabley know from Mark. Or well.. means that Mark knows Hebrew. Seeing as he had a Bar Mitzvah and possibly Yiddish.
