Extremely boring movie about four men who kiss the wife goodbye in the morning, go off to work, put in a decent day’s labors, do not have sex with the secretary, come straight home in the evening, cook dinner, clean the dishes, spend time with the family, put the kids to bed, give several _Ba-booms_ to the wife, and go to sleep, repeating it all the next day.

**Phantom of the Opera** : Richard Wagner is the most famous opera-writer in Germany, but no one has ever met his cast. It turns out that he is a sorceror of sorts, and that instead of watching a performance the audience is able to actually see the events of the Ring Cycle playing out on their stage. Things go wrong when a mysterious spirit appears to Wagner, and asks him to bring the spirit of Brunnhilde off the stage and into the “real” world. It ends with Wagner trapped in Asgard, while Fafnir takes his place in Germany.
