I read Don Houston's DVD review of Creme Brulee at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=21060 and...you said: Summary: Crème Brulee was the best David Stanlet release to date on so many levels that I'd be hard pressed to find the best spot to begin so I'll use the metaphor mentioned in the audio commentary where the listener is asked: "Do you like soup?" If Crème Brulee were a soup, it could be described as being stocked with the finest ingredients ....." That, sir, does not compute. How can they or you use "soup" and "creme brulee" in the same train of thought? I'll bet you've never had creme brulee. The best I ever had was at the Top Of The Mark in San Fran. They also served me some wonderful lobster pumpkin SOUP that night. I know, it sounds ucky, but it was the best soup I've ever had. Soup is not dessert, one just can't compare the two.

My point being the brulee is a custard with a hardened caramelized sugar top and one has to "break" through that crust to get to the goodies. Soup, to me anyway, is generally more salty than sweet.

Creme Brulee is a cute name for a porn flic however, but not as cute as the <a href= http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=21020>Big Rack Attack </a>you didn't like. (If they did one called Big Sack Attack about men would it sound too much like rape?)

"That, sir, does not compute"...

The concept is called "context", which is why I pointed out where the "soup" idea came from (it was a running gag on the audio commentary, based on one of the dialogue lines of the movie). I know it may be a novel idea that a reviewer listened to the commentary track (especially for a porno), but the movie was very well done and a thorough examination of the extras seemed somehow appropriate given the circumstances (there've been times when the commentary was more interesting than the movie too; either way, I like to listen to them as long as they have something worth listening too).

Thanks for sort of reading the review though. Check out the movie and I think you'll enjoy it.
