not at all! i also forgot that our school mascot is a bear and that a rutgers student was just recently eaten by a bear, so there's been a lot of extra subtext associated with the film . . .
On the bear book, I remember reading a book when I was a kid that sounds like your bear movie. The bear in question was orphaned at a young age and grew up to become the biggest baddest grizzly in his neck of the woods. I think he chewed his paw off at one point to get out of a bear trap. Eventually he got old and broken down and he essentially committed suicide by going down into some valley that had some sort of hot springs situation that spewed poisonous gasses. He purposely laid down in that part of the valley, went to sleep and never woke up again. It was a pretty heavy book when I was in 4th grade. I can't remember the name of it for the life of me.

Just now getting to your previous post. Will check out the movie, but I just wanted to know how this ties into the Greasetruck hit song "The Bear"...
