And, if we should be very...<i>afraid</i>, it must be about very <i>big</i> cats. ;-) Seriously, though, you've definitely got me curious--sort of like the <i>cat</i>. Though, come to think of it, that curiosity certainly didn't pay off for the <i>cat</i>, did it? Hmmmm.... Jeanne Robert,

You have to view <i>Indiana Jones</i> as if it were a live-action comic book. You MUST suspend your disbelief from the beginning, or it simply doesn't work! Survive an atomic blast by hiding in a refrigerator? Sure, why not? The do it in the comics all the time! On that level, it totally delivers! Narnia was a disappointment because they took what I considered the much of best parts of the book - the spiritual parts - and left them out. At the same time, they added so much to the story it was hardly the same one. As a movie, it was great, and it worked. But as an adaptation of the book I consider it to be a failure. Thus - I liked it, but was disappointed at the same time. Go figure. As far as Iron Man goes - just go see it! But I'm tellin' ya now; stay until the absolute END of the credits. Seriously. ... and as for the zombie idea, well... hmmm... <i>(sound of grinding gears)</i> But that’s the whole point, Marcus! You have to view Indiana Jones as if it were a live-action comic book.

I thought Jones was fun, but empty. Narnia had a bit more to chew on. I haven't seen Iron Man yet! And I'm looking forward to this next project... I figure, since we have to be afraid, we're writing What I Learned from ... Zombies! Bring it on. You liked Jones better than Narnia, eh? I thought Jones was fun, but empty.

I haven’t seen Iron Man yet!
