This was an amazing film. It encapsulated Roger's talent, dry wit, and smooth good looks in one deeply moving and original sports fest that reeks of immortality and timelessness. Simply stunning, and I will watch it for years to come.
The main star of this film is not Roger, but his eyebrow.The eyebrow is smooth and delivers all the charisma of Roger.
I don't think this film is about a zany sports megathon at all, think it is about the opression of our world and the bleakness of obscurity.
Basicly, this film was.................completely perfect and the Special FX are the best I have seen in any film, even more so than Independance Day.
