And allegations of "weak powers of insight" are...
...the refuge of the intellectually insecure and pretentious.
My metaphor is probably unfunny because it's not a joke. Plenty of art, movies included, benefits greatly from deconstruction. The scatalogical aspect mirrors what I think of this movie and those like it.
But if you find yourself straining to find meaning in something very obviously intended to be made for X dollars and bring in 1.5*X, you're wasting your time.
As stated above, it's alright to think. As it is, your post makes me think you're entirely too vested in what is very clearly just a bad movie.
The most telling aspect of deconstructionists is how defensive they become when people are willing to dismiss their critical analysis of Howard the Duck as juvenile and overreaching.
But please, tell me how I'm immature for not universally applying the thought processes taught in high school English courses.
