Unfortuately Your right...  I'm just getting worried that this whole licensing
thing might be going a bit too far.  I think Star Wars and Disney were
interesting,

Star Wars I was definitely all over.  I mean, SW is a quality license, and I'm
a huge fan, so of course I was ecstatic.

Disney, same thing.  I mean, the established Mickeyverse characters.  Well, I'm
not a huge fan... but I mean it's been around for years and years and years,
the recognition is there (maybe even more than Star Wars) and it was a good
move.

Harry Potter was probably a good fit,

Since I like HP too, I was happy to hear this.  Although I have to admit that I
wondered if it wasn't an indicator that they were going to be taking on more
and more licenses with less-established products...

Jack who?,

Is Jack Stone a license?  I didn't think it was, I thought it was just an
action-oriented Creator line.

Jurassic Park...
why? isn't that kind of like what the whole current Adventurers theme is based
on anyway?

Well, to be fair these are apparently going to be "Moviemaker" sets.  Although
the same question can be asked... aren't these what it's kind of based on
anyway?

I wonder if they'll use the new "Dinosaurs" peices in the JP Moviemaker sets.

Anyway, with all the dino-stuff in the first run of Moviemaker, and Speilberg's
involvement in JP3, I kinda thought we'd ear about this eventually.

It's a shame, since The Lost World was such a terrible movie.

Oh well if it keeps the $$ flowing for TLC then all the more power to them.

Well.  I feel the same way, sort of.  If TLC thinks that this is the way to
make money, they might abandon the things that make me like them so much in the
first place.

I have to say that I already own a JPIII Studios set already (1371). The
dino is kind of iffy IMHO, but the rest of the set is old school town style
building. If 1371 is any indication of the rest of the sets in the line, I
say bring them on!
