Take it with a grain of salt Reeder. Dwarf fans have heard this one before, and pre-production isn’t done.

_It’s cold out here, there’s no kind of atmosphere…_

What I really want to happen is for the series to start coming out on DVD. Or if they already are and I’ve just missed the fact, to have it pointed out posthaste. That’s an even better option.

The last series was tripe, what guarantee is there the movie will be better? I liked it better when it was crap, if you know what I mean.
