Yes, I saw it with the Movie Gang, but that was because I absolutely put my foot down at Mike Myers latest crap-fest. (The only movies I ever liked him in was the “Shrek” series, maybe because I didn’t have to watch his ugly puss?)

At any rate, the movie wasn’t terrible, and the line about the Hollywood actors and their political views was, I thought, the best line. What bothered me most of all was that, in paying homage to the original series (from the multiple entry doors to the “CONTROL Museum” to the old catch-phrases to Bernie Koppel’s cameo), they managed to mangle every one. Or, to put it in terms that Don Adams would understand:

“Missed it by THAT much!”

Again, it was the best of a bad lot that hit the screens this week, and everything else out there we’d seen, or didn’t wish to see. Personally, I would have stayed home, but the movie gang overruled.

On of my favorite lines from the original series was Bernie Koppel yelling at his henchmen, “If you don’t get Schmart, the CHAOS Summer Picnic will be canzzelled!”
Always made me laugh when I heard it.
