...show, but at the time, I thought it was given that the Pudding would remain all-male. Moreover, I felt that was something the Pudding didn't necessarily have to change.

Point to ponder: This happy movie was written by Joel Schumacher, the same guy who punished us with the last two "Batman" films. Would whoever finds his sense of humor please return it before he makes another. And as you return to the road, remember to buckle up, and remember to rewind...
