    Hmm, sounds interesting. It sounds like a good story, too. I'm looking forward to more info. The cast does sound unusual, but they're all good quality actors. I think we may be in for a treat!

    Megan Fox? Damn I'm tired of that bitch. She sucks. A pretty face and a nice body doesn't mean she's talented.
