But I still need more proof. There, I need more proof.


lena is an anagram for: al(i)en

Freaky, huh?

Honestly, I have no physical proof.  Just what these people told me.  I would very much like to name names, but I know Paul lurks out there somewhere...

Hey Mac, it's not exactly an anagram for alien (you are missing the 'i')...

I read somewhere that Lena is really E.T and barry's favorite movie is E.t so at the end they only fall in love because E.T is Barry's favorite movie. This can be found on the commentary on the 2 disc dvd.

LENA:AN ALIEN?!.............That would've been just so, so f***in' stuuuuupid, my god.............

Ending a film with raining frogs is one thing but not even PTA could've pulled the alien thing off..........('Punch-Drunk-Galaxian Love'??????)

punchdrunk23 is an anagram for obsessed.


Guilty as charged. :)

Well, I had a night to sleep on it...reread the shooting script, and all of that...and I don't think an alien theme was ever in the works.  It just doesn't seem like something he would try.  At least not in this particular movie.  It would have been too off the wall...

You know when Barry is first shown in the grocery story, and the old man in red, way down the isle pushing the cart, looks at Barry...and then a few isles later you see a "Lena" type womanin red, pushing a cart way in the background....maybe Lena was a transforming alien?

Nah, total rubbish...
