2. Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

4. Education: the path from cocky ignorance to miserable uncertainty.

For all the credit Jeff Lynne rightly receives for being ELO's writer/producer/singer and guitar player, none of those big hits/classic albums would have been the same without the amazing keyboard work of Richard Tandy. Unless I'm mistaken, Tandy played on every ELO album except for the first, and some of the recent "Jeff Lynne's ELO" albums.
Are people STILL trying to bury this movie? It's actually pretty good, and was only financially unsuccessful for 2 reasons:
1) They spent too much money making it.
2) Unlike James Bond, younger generations are not as interested in the character. Just by looking around the movie theater where I first saw it, I could tell most of the audience had seen the original trilogy in theaters as well.
