Thanks.

The birds, the fair weather, the new flowers. It doesn't get any better than this. HOLY CRAP! what's THAT?!?"

If they can stick that ending onto THE AVENGERS mere two weeks before release, then I would hope a text screen would be possible. But who knows? Well, I would guess somebody would.

May 15 12 4:44 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Python, you hit the nail on the head. I'm quite sure Dan Curtis would have some choice words for Mr. Burton. And turning Jonathan Frid's Barnabas into a cartoon of Michael Jackson dressed up as a vampire for Halloween is no honor or homage.
