...Davy is half octopus, half man, and his crew seems to have been recruited from the Star Wars cantina of yore, though they have even worse skin problems and are covered with the kind of slime that has recently become fashionable among the villains in fantasy films.

I picked at least four knit hats off the floor and about three Livestrong bracelets doused in apricot-flavored slime. That’s commitment to the art of dance.
