Wow, what fantastic visuals. Anybody else seen this? The story was a touch on the weak side, which is surprising to me for Neil Gaiman (just recently have gotten excited about him, and only read Neverwhere and am currently reading American Gods), but out of the people I saw it with, I liked the story the most. But we all wowed over the visuals, and it was a lot of fun.
Definitely worth checking out.

Life is a waste of time
Time is a waste of life
So get wasted all of the time
And you'll have the time of your life

Saw the review on Ebert & Roeper. Plan to see it. And oh to see it back in the day when I had access to...
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
