"... The english is just too old and too difficult for most people to read to be anymore than a chore ..." Good point. Now if we are talking say "The A-Team"

"... The english is just too old and too difficult for most people to read to be anymore than a chore ..." Good point. Now if we are talking say "The A-Team" I'd agree. Bodie, Doyle, Tiger and jewelry man, Mr-T. I can see how some might spell Mr. Tee, Mr T or even Mr. Tea if you're a Brit. But meddling with the spelling of the greatest, most recognised writer in the history of English literature? "... Harry Potter is REAL present-day entertainment, and anyone who wants to get into the industry has to understand that ..." I agree J.K. Rawlings, is a modern master of story telling. But I can name plenty of classic literature novels that have gone straight to mass visual media bypassing their literary cousins. Behind each great bit of entertainment is a great script. A lot of these scripts are based on classic lit.
