I was just updating my Netflix info, reviewing all the movies I can think of I've seen so I can get better recommendations and I ran across this review of Battlefield Earth:
I think Jon Stewart summed Battlefield Earth up best when he said that it's a cross between Star Wars and the smell of ass. I hope that the studio exec that greenlighted this one enjoys his new job as the photocopy guy.

They passed an old woman who was just opening the door of a brown Cadillac. An old man was already sitting in the passenger seat. The car had a personalized plate with the letters “J-U-S-P-R-A-Y”.
“That stuff work?” Israel said to her.
“‘Scuse me?” the little old woman said, clutching her keys.
“The spray. Does it keep them away?”
“Keep who away?” She looked confused.
“I gotcha.” Israel gave her a conspiratorial wink.

Do you know the truly bizarre story of LRH, Medusa?
I read the first 100 pages of Battlefield Earth. It was incredibly boring. The first book I was =glad= I lost.

Well, Medusa, LRH started out as an sf writer. Robert Heinlien was the chairman of what he called "The Manana Society"--meetings where he and his pulp-fiction sf friends could get together, swill cheap wine, and =talk= their next story out. Save the trouble of actually writing it, yunnerstan. And in one of these after-hours sessions, Hubbard declared, "Boys, why are we breaking our balls for a penny-and-a half a word? The =real= money is in starting a religion!" And that's exactly what he did.
