Bizarre lights up cue placement...Place the lights up cue at the "CAST" listing. Do not place the cue at the first credit.

Brad,I saw the outtakes/behind the scenes/concert footage (whatever they had there) all through the credits and if I remember correctly up until the ratings card.
Did I possibly miss something?

The entire thing is credits over that song with people dancing around. It didn't serve any purpose that I'm aware of except to annoy ushers, since customers always stay when there is action on the screen.The movie ended...
Everyone starts to dance around as credits flash...
The credits/dancing stops for a "making of"...
*lights up cue*
Everyone picks up where they left off dancing around as credits flash until the rating band.
That's why it makes best sense to place the cue there.

The print that I inspected had nice long leaders and _no_ lab splices! A true achievement for Deluxe Hollywood. (Odd, since Miramax titles are usually printed by Deluxe Toronto...but this print didn't have the "print made in Canada" label).
Why, oh, why did this rare example of quality lab work have to be wasted on such an (apparently) crappy film when there are so many good titles that receive shoddy lab work?

Actually now that you mention it Scott, my print did not have any lab splices either AND as you also found, the leaders WERE of a suitable length.Indeed a true shame for "printing done right" to be wasted on this particular movie.
