The Second Voyage of the Mimi (1988)
I blame "The 2nd Voyage of the Mimi" for......
I blame "The 2nd Voyage of the Mimi" for getting me interested in the Maya. I was always interested in Archaeology. But when I saw the Mayan sites on that movie series in junior high, I was really awestruck.
Now....I am just one semester away from getting my degree in Anthropology/Archaeology and I will be going to the Yucatan for the second time this coming May to help excavate a Mayan site. :-D This past May I backpacked around the Yucatan and saw just about every Mayan site you can think of. Weather kept me from getting to one, but I hope I'll be able to go back and try again.
If anyone knows where I can get a copy of the 2nd Voyage of the Mimi, I'd love to get it. I can't find it anywhere.

Funny guy, Funny Movie
I understand that some people don't get Jack Blacks comedy. You really have to have seen a lot of his movies to get his form of the funny. I thought it was a funny funny movie. He isn't the best actor in the world, but he doesn't have to be. All of the little catch phrases in this movie, along with the funny segments, the singing, the really funny wrestling, and the skip around story make this movie all about laughing and not about acting. Its just like a parody movie. Some people hate those, other don't. I myself love them. Like Airplane, Monty Python search for the Holy Grail, and National Lampoons movies....this movie just delivered laugh after laugh. I found myself rewinding parts to hear them again.
