Skid ◊ 2011-08-28 08:00	I wonder if this car choice was a deliberate reference to Rodney King, who was driving the same type of vehicle at the time of his infamous beating.

Carguydude ◊ 2024-12-28 15:54	@Reg1992 actually he was arrested 4 months before the movie came out. You're thinking about the trial that was a year later. Either way, it had no effect on the movie because they would've pretty much done with the movie when he was arrested.
