Oh you mean the movies! Even I hate the movies!!!! The book is WAY better! You should check it out. And that guy they find in the tomb is Martin the Warrior! He is the best! He's even cooler then spyro!......Well.... I guess they tie! Although the Book did make me cry I will probably get dawn of the dragon instead of the new redwall book, I think I'll be OK cause I already have 18 redwall books!

Redwall??? I havnt heard that name since i was 3 years old. i watched the cartoons with the bouncing rabbit and the using hot porrige as a weapon.

Also there was some great hero and in one they find his tomb.

DotD is cool!
