Re: Our Worst Fears! I have to agree with the BW that the only thing in those comments that make me think she's money grubbing are the aside comments. I happen to have a lot of respect for Cate Blanchette as an actress (se Elizabeth, it's great) and can think of MANY MANY actress who would be MUCH worse. I, too, shudder at the idea of our precious characters gracing Happy Meals...but I don't think we can blame the actors/actresses. As for the ears, yuck, but you knew they would...you had to know. How else would the public be able to tell they were elves (as pointy ears=vulcan or elf in the public eye). After all, Santa's elves have pointy ears. *blech* *blech* *blech* Sorry, self induced purging. -*-The X Phial-*- You must believe in free will, you have no choice. Isaac Singer
