Best line " God isn't interested in technology. He cares nothing for the microchip or the Silicon Revolution. Look how he spends his time, forty-three species of parrots! Nipples for men!
Slugs! They can't hear. They can't speak. They can't operate machinery. Are we not in the hands of a lunatic?
It definitely falls down in places, but overall a really fun ride.
I saw it as a young person, and hated the ending. But it kind of fits the overall tone, isn't a Big Dumb American Happy Ending, and definitely elicits some deeper conversations afterwards.

Not a bad movie at all, just weird!
I suffered through it and tapped out in the middle of the last episode...that's how poor the writing and acting was.
I passed this legendary flick on to my kids. They love it just like I do.
