I don't know how it happened, but after getting 3 votes last FYC, my Bill Clinton review actually went lower! It went so low it even left the top 200 list and is now in the top 300!

Anyway, let's try some naught-ies:

What it is:
Ode to Billy Joe: Based on the song by Bobbie Gentry

At the time of the Virginia Tech shootings, I sought more info
on the Columbine tragedy to compare it to what the VT shooter claimed.
I found two films which I ordered on Netflix:

Elephant: A polished take on Columbine, centered around the school environment, showing what Klebold & Harris only alluded to in their tapes.

Zero Day: Chilling docudrama, both basing the characters directly on the real Columbine event and allowing the killers to finesse their plan over what they called other more careless school killers (Klebold & Harris again). The tapes style was that of the Columbine "basement tapes."

Becoming Jane: In the tradition of Shakespeare in Love, a fictionalized story of an affair between Jane Austen and a young Irishman, giving her the life experience that enables her to write the novels for which she is known.

They don't make 'em like THAT anymore! ...


... so I guess I'd better remind you that:

Mrs. Miniver was directed by William Wyler.

Pennies From Heaven is set in the 1930s, a decade of great financial lows. In the film - as in the UK tv series on which it's based - Steve Martin and the rest of the cast frequently burst into song, but they're miming.

Emperors Of Antarctica was directed by a New Zealander.

Dick stars Kirsten Dunst as a teenager who infiltrates the White House during a certain political scandal.

The Lion King 1� celebrates and expands on the original with the cartoon animals spoofing a how-they-made-umentary. Nathan Lane's contribution is leonine. The pun evokes a famous US rallying cry of 1898 which some historians claim was the catalyst for the Spanish-American War.

I am not sure how accurate your 2010 review is. And even though Skunk Puppet was there before you with "Sex on the Beach," it is more appropriate for the film you've reviewed.

Well, to begin with, the monoliths do not carry stars or the "fetus." The latter is not a fetus, anyway; the "star-shild" that Bowman becomes at the end of 2001 is revealed in 2010 to be an incorporeal entity. And the monoliths do not carry the stars as much as they increase Jupiter's density to such a level that it achieves nuclear fusion on a planetary scale, thus transforming into a little star.

Here's Randall's List #321.

What, then, is Bowman referring to when he says, "My God, it's full of stars!"?

Firstly, that's in 2001. Secondly, considering he becomes incorporeal, and thus able to travel anywhere and anytime in the universe through any means to appear in any way, it is safe to assume that the comment is not literal (it most certainly is not in any of the books).

There is nothing, in the book or in the film of 2010, to suggest that the monoliths "carry stars." And Bowman is definitely not a fetus in either of them.
