Completely agree. And he's probably missed more than few times. I haven't seen everything he's produced. But in general, you're right. Hit the nail on the head.

I won't argue that. Honestly, I don't know if I even remember much of the ending beyond what happens after we see the alien.
Either way, the rest of the movie was charming and fun and endearing enough to me that I overlooked a lot of it. It just took me back, reminded me so much of the movies of my childhood.
I had a blast.
