: Does anyone have the complete text of the disclaimer at the start of the film? I had a hard time reading it (should get new contacts).
: What's the deal with the platypi?
Disclaimer: 1)a renunciation of any claim to or connection with;2) a disavowal; 3) a statement made to save one's own ass.
Though it'll go without saying ten minutes or so into these proceedings, View Askew would like to state that this film is-from start to finish-a work of comedic fantasy, not to be taken seriously. To insist that any of what follows is incendiary or inflammatory is to miss our intention and pass undue judgement; and passing judgement is reserved for God and God alone (this goes for you film critic too...just kidding).
So please-before you think about hurting someone over this trifle of a film, remember: even God has a sense of humor. Just look at the platypus. Thank you and enjoy the show.
P.S. We sincerely apologize to all platypus enthusiasts out there who are offended by that thoughtless comment about the platypi. We at View Askew respect the noble platypus, and it is not our intention to slight these stupid creatures in anyway.
Thank you again and enjoy the show.
