[up]You're welcome!

Just watch Panda eventually release the lyrics sheet and my transcription turns out to be totally wrong.

Maybe you'd be less disappointed if you stopped expecting things to be Carmen Sandiego movies.

FINALLY got the To Boldly Flee DVD! I haven't been able to listen to everything nearly at all, but the extras do not disappoint!

There are a lot of new tidbits to add to the Trivia sections here from the Making Of doc! Apparently, Doug thought up this cut character who would've been a parody of Jar-Jar, but would instead speak very well, and be wise and insightful! Brad's answers to the interviews are the most hilarious. Marz Gurl goes off on a very long-winded answer to "how would you like your character to die?" that's probably the most hilarious I seen her in a while! And, yes, the Bum Review of this film is also hilarious, as these usually are.

The menu for the commentaries and the extras is a still shot of "the plant that really ties the room together", with the elevator music from Zod's party playing over it!

I had a bit of Fridge Brilliance concerning this after rewatching it just now:

I realized how much like the original The Neverending Story the plot of To Boldly Flee is. All the characters live in a world created by the imaginations of their...well, creators and there's a big, black hole thingy that's going to destroy it unless stopped. I'm not saying that they ripped it off or anything, but considering what a big fan of that movie Doug and Rob are, it's highly possible they were influenced on some level by it. Anyone else agree?

So is To Boldly Flee completely useless now? Do I throw my DVD out yet?

Not necessarily. The fact that the Plot Hole is included in this video proves that the events of the movie still happened, but that leaves the question of what the Critic was doing OUTSIDE the Plot Hole, creeping out Doug. Plus, it's 3 hours and 30 minutes of good entertainment with a solid storyline. I think it still has relevance.

Still it makes the Snob's line about how the face of the Internet is changing kind of hard to digest now, especially considering that's the best scene in the movie, for many reviewers.
