EVIL TREES!?!?! DAMN THOSE EVIL TREES!!!

Just kidding. Love Gaiman's work and I look forward to seeing how this translates to film.

Gaiman's work is great, now we need a film of American Gods! I'm a huge fan of Gaiman and Vaughn!

Gaiman rocks!!! American Gods was awesome, but makes me feel inadequate because I couldn't figure who all the gods were in the book. I can't wait to see Mirrormask.
Vaughn should have been the director for Xmen3. I can't believe it's Ratner. I think that franchise is gone, but I hope to be proven wrong.

Uh-oh, I think someone just opened the Ratner/X3 pandoras box on yet another comments thread!! ;)

Dude, American Gods would totally rock!!! I'd love to see that hit the big screen.
