Great story! I've never heard of that one, I think i'll tell it to my annoying little nieces and nephews on Christmas eve, last year I told them that Santa was wasn't coming because the police arrested him on a serial murder charge. Merry Christmas to you too Sir William.

Thanks a lot. Yes, tell the story to your nieces and nephews and perhaps add Gaiman's version of Snow White. That will be a Christmas to remember.

By the way, what happened to that jerk who posted your video as his own? I hope he got stapped with a mistletoe and cooked with his own turkey.

I sent youtube a complaint but I'm not sure if anything will become of it, It pissed me off so much that i deleted all my videos, I'm only gonna make videos that i can call my own with no copy rights attached to save me the pain of going through all this crap again.

Haha he might even choke to death on his turkey, I think i'll add that to my list to santa.

That was stupid. You invested time and passion into your movies and now you deliver a cheap victory to the plagiarist. And as long as youtube doesn't block your videos why should you do them this favour?

Howsoever, you could create an account on vimeo. They aren't as strict with the copyright as youtube is. You could post trailers or summaries here and the full clips on vimeo.

Happy Holidays to you too! I´ve never heard of this story before, it goes on to proof why Gaiman is next to Moore and Miller as one of the greatest.

Thanks a lot. I think now you know which book to wish for Christmas. :-)
