I did get that the movie was a spoof on big budget, cookie cuter Hollywood films. I think my prob with the ending of Adaptation was that I was exhausted by that point. During the film, Kaufman got caught up in in being clever to the point where it became it became a distraction. By the time the ending came around, I already had more than enough of his "insights" on Hollywood. Adaptation seemed to be less about entertaining than about Kaufman exercizing his ego. I'm all for a little less "Hollywood entertainment" at the expense of content, but in this case I thought it was overkill..............
