   I'll hold this debate for later it is one I have had with Dix and we   
   would agree to disagree with you, Wil. :-)

   PLay out your fantasies as you wish but including hundreds and hundreds   
   of posts that decry how bad the films are v.s the books in their   
   interpretation of them is neither fantasy nor entertainment. It's   
   purely jealousy and the desire to claim an intellectual high ground   
   that does not exist. It's a waste of time in a delusional reality.

   So happy to hear. :oÞ
