Ugh.  I suppose it may be worth having a copy if you're a collector of dinosaur 
movies and such, but otherwise it is nothing more than a waste of funds.  When 
I was younger I made better movies with my neighbors, and I wasn't operating on 
a multi-million dollar budget...

Have a very, very happy holiday everyone!
