It's REALLY BAD!
To Jolena...

I'm on top of the world, lookin' down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I've found ever since you've been around
You're love's put me at the top of the world

You guys didnt like it?

It has become a cult favorite at my school and with alot of people I know. The movie is just filled with so many funny quotes I love it. I think it is something some people love and some people hate.

Hopefully you guys get to like it the more you see it.

It has a few funny parts, but mostly it's just a really bad movie.

Beerman,

By no means should you watch that hideous thing ever again. That was the biggest waste of film in the history of movies. I am so upset I lost two hours of my life that I will never get back. I like a lot of wierd movies, but this was not one of them. Watch Office Space instead, thats a great cult movie.

Not sure about that, but the writers did go to BYU, but that doesn't necessarily make them Mormon.

The movie was produced by individual families. There was a big story on it. Remember I live in Idaho it has been big news

Why would any non-Mormon choose to go to BYU? Did you ever check out the code of conduct at that place? Scary. :o

People either love that movie, or hate it with a passion. There is no middle ground.

Do or do not, there is no try-yoda

I'm sure some people are raised Mormon, go to BYU, and then leave the church shortly after they graduate. I don't know of specific Mormon examples, but how many ex-Catholics do you know?
Come to think of it, I think Trey Parker (of South Park fame) grew up Mormon, or maybe I just think that because of that Orgazmo movie.

Ok, I can see that. The rules at BYU are enough to turn anyone against the faith.

the financing came from the church, hence the producer label

Yep, was definately way off on that one. I think I've been getting my info from the same source as Rush Limbaugh, the Bureau of my Butt.
