bip. Another example of the "Promise to entertain them then run them over with my philosophy" movie (in my opinion the prime example) is Dark Crystal. I went expecting to see some good muppet fantasy, and all I got was hit over the head with evil-is-good-zen- one-hand-clapping-garbage. (This is not meant to put down evil-is- good-zen-one-hand-clapping-garbage, but at least the ads could have said "Come see Dark Crystal if you want two hours of evil-is-good-zen- one-hand-clapping garbage mixed with one funny muppet). Anyone else have an opinion? -Glenn
