QIs 'The Power' important for understanding Southland Tales?
ANot really, but it explains why the tattoo of Jesus on the back of Boxer's neck starts bleeding at the end of the film. This means that Christianity has won the "contest" for Earth and is the one true faith.
QAnd what's this 'I'm a pimp, and pimps don't commit suicide' business?
ARichard Kelly stated in his interview with EMPIRE Magazine...If Roland Taverner pulls the trigger and kills himself, the ice-cream truck will fall and the gateway it opens will close, and it's that gateway that may be humankind's salvation, so suicide represents surrendering to defeat. And "pimp?" Pimp is American slang for badass. A cool guy. So it's trying to say that our veterans are the biggest badasses that we have.
QWhat is the glowing orb carried around by Dr. Kuntzler?
AIt is a mechanical ball (built by Treer) which acts as remote antennas for the wireless electricity energy fields powered by Fluid Karma. There are hundreds of these mechanical balls buried everywhere in the Southland.
