Yes, I agree. I'll probably watch it again in a month or so.
I was in Denver a few years ago, and after going to a baseball game I happened to stumble across the same bar, as shown in the movie, with the arcade games, but I was refused entry because I did not have my driver's license with me. WTF ???? I thought the guy on the door was joking. WTF is this driver's license all about ? Over the top security or what ? Anyway, by the time I got back to my hotel, it had been a long day, I just could not be bothered slogging back across town to go the arcade bar. Wish I had .... It was crowded with people and was pumping out loud music - everyone was obviously having a great time.

Absolutely. I almost switched it off, but had a feeling there might be something after the credits because ~6 minutes of pure credits is just way too much, so I fast forwarded just in case there was some bonus content after the credits and there was. Very funny !
