Hmmm, I'll have a Mutant Bug. Hello, Yar.] I have nominations for Greatest Lack of Continuity in a Movie: "Cannonball Run" The start of the race everyone gets timecards. At the end the timecards went the way of the script writer.... "Up the Creek" [My choice for Worst Movie of the 80's.] Not only did the actors vacillate in and out of their lifejackets and wet/dry clothes, but the climax of the film relies on the fact that suddenly the river becomes a hillside 1 mile downstream.... "E.T." Boy, wouldn't it have been neat if that little scuzzy twerp could fly at the *beginning* of the movie so he didn't get left behind? "2001" A Strauss video: A zillion dollars for the accuracy and beauty of the models in the first half; eighty-nine cents for the melted crayons in the last half.... Any other nominations? -From the critically-acclaimed mailbox of: ><..!decvax!ittvax!sii!dmcnh!gts "The envelope please...."
