...we gave it a C+ and a C-.

it was just like 1977 again with a tad less heart and a little less believable. and yes we both saw it live in 1977. watched the 1977 trailer after we got home and that confirmed our suspician..same movie done a little less well.

bummer. cannot wait for episode 235 which i hear will be awesome.
