I agree with Mark Leeper: I didn't like WIZARDS either.  During the film, the
corners of my mouth started sinking, as did my stomach; scantily clad females
don't do a thing for me; all that footage that I thought was interesting in
Lord of the Rings I saw had been used before in WIZARDS; bad guys are Nazis--
I agree, Nazis're bad, but this just felt like a crutch because Bakshi couldn't
make up his own bad guys.  And then the easy-out, absolutely-wrong ending.

The worst part of it was, that so many of my friends thought this was a movie
to end all movies, and I thought (and still think) it was male-juvenile humor
at its trashiest (come on--what girl wants to see a movie in which there is only
one female character (-: okay, and no totally gnarly dudes :-) ).  Well, that's
just my opinion.
