They escaped the black hole in the old Disney movie Black Hole, didn't they?

I swore I saw Fred Thompson on that...

Frank, Frank, Frank. Don't you know that there is one thing that can escape a black hole? It's Fred Thompson!

The truth is, we have no idea since all we ever discover is a fine black mist.

Fred Thompson's gravity well is so steep and deep, he eats black holes like other people eat jelly beans.
