Line 14:
** Perhaps the sound got garbled when being converted from light into a format the Thermians could view, and they couldn't hear the laughter. This would mean they learn English through lip-reading, which if nothing else would explain why Mathesar spoke so bizarrely.
* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: In the scene where the actors are taking the shuttle down to the alien planet, Fred can be seen eating one of those Kraft cheese and breadstick snack packs. Granted, the Thermians can synthesize human food, but this seems like a rather esoteric choice. Then it hit me: a deleted scene in the movie reveals that Fred is high on marijuana the entire time. So, he probably carries snacks around with him all the time in case he gets the munchies when out and about.
* The Thermians having no concept of fiction may seem unrealistic at first... until you realize that it was the case for much of human history. The age of stories that are explicitly fictional starts roughly with ''[[Robinson Crusoe (Literature)|Robinson Crusoe]]'', and even that one is [[Very Loosely Based on a True Story]] and stylized as a documentary. Before that, stories beyond fairy tales and parables were expected by default to have some basis in fact.
** The ''Canterbury Tales'' and ''The Merchant Of Venice'' say hi.
