powerpoint to quicktime movie won't import into FInal Cut

[ben]

I'm on Mac OS 10.3.9 using Powerpoint 11.2 and have a deck with a bit
of animation, movies, etc. embedded in it. I saved it to Quicktime, and
it plays fine in Quicktime Player, but won't import into Final Cut
Express v2.0.3. I get a message "File error: unknown file" if I drag
and drop, or a "General Error" message if I use Import. If Quicktime
can play it, why can't FC import it?

Can you import other QT mov files into FC? PPT simply exports it as a
MOV file through QuickTime.
