'Thankerverymuch.'

Film The real triumph of Bubba-Hotep is that is that it turns what could have been an extra-ordinarily camp idea -- Elvis battles The Mummy and turns it into a heartfelt and touching discussion of the aging process and how it quietly, slowly, reduces all the choices available to us, to the point that eventually we'll start generating our own. If this is supposed to be comedy drama I found it heartbreaking, especially that ending. Mission accomplished, but at what price?
