You, sir, are an idiot!

Both sound like interesting ideas, especially the Damned. Courtney Crumrin sounds similar to alot of the Harry Potter type magical kid films that are coming out now, but I' m sure there must be more to it than that.

Well, that may be true, wraith, but I was just trying to be funny. Tried and failed obviously.

Almostunbiased; I am sure that if you squeeze your eyes shut tight and pray really hard to Jeebus he will protect you from those bad, bad people at Dreamworks that are trying to corrupt your soul with entertainment. Anyway, I thought your comment was pretty funny.

Sorry 'bout that! I hadn't had my coffee yet when I wrote that, so my sarcasm-meter wasn't working at full capacity! :)
