"Undermind," Phish's latest and final studio album does not sound like the work of a band on the verge of breaking up. Indeed, for an act that has defined itself through live music while always struggling and failing to transmit its signature sound to the studio, there is a bitter irony in just how good this last effort is. The whole disc seems to scream, "You've finally done it! Don't give up now!"

Much of the success of last year's critical darling "Lost in Translation" hinged on a great American comic actor playing the role of a man completely lost in a strange world he doesn't understand and playing that role with just the right mixture of pathos and silliness. That description fits "The Terminal" equally well, with Tom Hanks in the pivotal role instead of Bill Murray.

Remember Fat Bastard? Of course you do. Remember when the nude, grease-coated Austin Powers character offered fried chicken to Heather Graham?

The late, great futurist and humorist Douglas Adams once described the vastness of the universe like this: "Space is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space." So, compared to the vastness of space, a piddling 408 feet doesn't seem like a big deal.
