Have to give you that, Lugsy. Reportedly it was 3.7 million dollars.

Total Recall was based on a book by Philip K Dick, responsible for Blade Runner, Minority Report and A Scanner Darkly, amongst others.

the elephant is is widely regarded as having a pretty decent memory,and this gives me a tenuous link to my question;
who's last words were(mistakenly reported as being)"they could'nt hit an elephant at this distan........."?
