..but PacMan is so much more than a mere thriller - it's a soaring roller-coaster of a tale, encompassing addcition, persecution, vengeance, struggle against almost overwhelming odds and even romance (in the form of Mrs. PacMan)
With the right director, writer and cast, this could be next years' 'Beautiful Mind'

I get to waste 400 more hours trying to figure out the sequence of buttons on my remote that'll let me change the channel and watch something else!
