     @batkaren The whole movie is Reaganism in a nutshell. The heroes are scrappy, risk-taking entrepreneurs who have been rejected by elitist academia, are hounded by meddling government regulators, and ultimately have to come to the rescue of a helpless government. They prevail in the end against a world-destroying androgyne by breaking their *own* workplace safety rules (“never cross the streams”).
