movie that has been ripe with hot anticipation for a long, long time! This seems
to be the Summer for movies that people are chomping at the bit for! With last
week's INDIANA JONES, and the new BATMAN movie coming in July, along with the
finally-filmed MOMMA MIA, now here we have the long awaited filming of
the HBO series SEX AND THE CITY, and, let me tell you, folks: There are a WHOLE
LOT of people waiting for this one!! If you think this is just the "ultimate
chick flick", you might be <EM>wrong-o</EM> on that one! (or, maybe
not)...</FONT></FONT></STRONG></FONT></DIV>

always FUN!! Big, BIG FUN!!</FONT></STRONG></FONT></DIV>

that by now! Boy, did Spielberg, Lucas and Harrison Ford pull this one off! To
come out of the chute after 19 years, and to have this big of a homerun, is a
marvel! Oh, I know some of the fancy-pantz critics didn't like it, and some of
the fanboys thought it was a little cutesy, but, you know what??<U> IT'S A CROWD

in the world and shorten it to merely "Prince Caspian" <EM>(see "Indiana Jones

no concept as to how to fit such a mouthful on a marquee! This is the last week
