Stop the goddamned presses

::takes a minute to collect myself::

So I get it into my head to check out Internet Movie Database to see if I can find out how tall Lucy Lawless is. Don't ask me why, just one of those random things my brain gets fixated on when it's on autopilot. Right, so I check her page over and the first thing that pops up is the body of work. I glance over the listed BSG credits blahblahblah and then I see the thing at the very top: Dragonlance - Dragons of Autumn Twilight (filming) - Goldmoon.

OH MY FRAKKIN' GOD

But WAIT, this gets better/worse. After I'm done saying "oh my frakkin' God" a couple of times I click on the link to check out the movie's production page. And who's playing Tanis Half-Elven?

TEH ROSENBAUM!!!
Be still my heart.

Once my brain kicked in again I realized the production is animated so, *whew*, better. Here's a link. Kiefer Sutherland as Raistlin? He can do the raspy voice pretty well (see: Dark City), so cool beans. And much Phil Lamarr love. I can see this going straight-to-video, but that's okay. I'm disgustingly excited about how it might work out.

Very cool, I hope they do it right. :) I think Kiefer Sutherland and Lucy Lawless are great choices. I'm not familiar with any of the others...
