HB to the CB!! I'd like to see the backjack fight scene in the Dome - we could have Leo DiCaprio as the noble hero slugging it out with Mike White (School Of Rock) as the new sidha, chaos ensues until Bevan played by Randy Quaid in a fat suit, and Hagelin played by Ed Harris, show up, and decide to single out a rogue sidha played by Edward Norton, who someone saw passing out Amma brochures, as the troublemaker. Cut to shot of frenzied crowd of pundits angrily shaking the fence around their compound. Stay tuned.
