Heh heh heh. I agree wholeheartedly with you [Insert holiday stuff here]! That's going to mess it up. There's supposed to be humor, dry humor not toddler humor. It would be better to say, 'Klaus wrinkled his nose and said "Count Olaf was here alright." than "Nasty, man! Who farted?!" That's sounds so childish.

I pray that he is...I wonder if they'll change the hook-nosed man to the "flatulent man". 20 bucks says they'll be a scene where Klaus has to unclog a toilet. God, I hate Nickelodeon...

Or it's just me...meh. I also am going to miss Snicket's little remarks throughout the book...do you think they'll have a narrator do all those? I can't remember if they have a narrator or not...and if so, is the narrator going to just narrate, or are they going to play a Snicketish role Jude Law is playing Lemony Snicket, and i suppose, the narrator. i agree. I can see that as a chore that Olaf leaves them.

No, I mean Nickelodeon will probably do it overly comically.

It's Nickelodeon...*sigh* They'll be lots of fart jokes and toilet humor...morons. That's what I fear, the way Aunt Josephine fears realtors. Other semi-logical things I fear from this movie: -The afore-mentioned Count Olaf action figures. "With interchangeable mix'n'match disguises!" Overmerchandising ruined Harry Potter for me. But not even an evil that great can ruin the Snicket books. I hope. -Three books in one movie. Very bad. Due to the somewhat formulaic plotting of the early books, the movie will basically be three similar stories jammed into two-three hours. -Spontaneously combusting from sheer pyrokinetic anger whilst watching the film, burning down the theater, and getting some innocent man with a cigarette lighter accused of arson. -Enough bad reviews to choke Uncle Monty's perambulator-swallowing snake. At least they'll be mildly amusing to read.

Yeah...Nickolodeon is of course the creator of...*sob* Rocket Power. But then there's the Amanda Show + All That and those other great shows, but... ...all three first books combined into one? I mean, that's...either 3 hours+ or a sucky movie. And I have the feeling it's not gonna be three hours. No one could beat LOTR: The Return of The King's 3 hrs. 20 min! Anyway, 3 books crammed into one = bad movie. You're comparing apples to oranges. Return of the King was a huge book with small print. It has more prose than the first three Lemony books combined. All of the Reptile Room could easily be squashed into a half hour TV special. It essentially takes place in ONE ROOM. These are CHILDREN'S BOOKS. Most of what little text there is is description, which a film elminiates the need for. Lighten up!! You all just need something to whine about, don't you?
