   I enjoyed /The Adventures of Rocky & Bullwinkle/ -- once I realized   
   that it had captured the essence of the show. That is, that it /felt/   
   like the original. And Boris/Natasha planning to settle down and raise   
   "the nastiest children in the world" was an unexpected extension of   
   their characters.   
      
   I never liked either "The Flintstones" nor "The Jetsons" TV shows. I   
   never saw the Flintstones movie (well, certainly not the live-action   
   one) and am unlikely to see the Jetson's.   
      
   But Jim Carrey I have seen, in several films. While I can't say this   
   is always a good thing to do, several of his films were enjoyable. l   
   may even have one in my DVD collection, who can say?
