I'm curious... who would you choose for Count Olaf?

You need someone visually distinctive, who can (badly) imitate many different people, and who can go over the top in his eeeeeeeevilness.

I don't think that Jim Carrey is that bad of a choice. If he were younger, I would have gone with Robin Williams.

Actually, I'd like to see Hugo Weaving give it a shot. :)

Miss Baudelaire, there are two paths before you. One leads to the certain death of you, your brother, and the little child. The other leads to marriage with me.

Jim Carrey is fine as an actor as long as he doesn't start pulling faces. You might watch Magestic which waa very good movie he was in.
Now, Count Olaf sounds familar, but I don't think I regognise the author...

Run, don't walk, to your nearest bookstore. Buy every copy of every book in A Series of Unfortunate Events.

And then bury them in your backyard. Lemony Snicket must write about these unfortunate events, the Baudelaire children must experience them, but there's no reason that you must read about these woesome events.

The opening words of these books explain it all:

If you are interested in stories with happy endings, you would be better off reading some other book. In this book, not only is there no happy ending, there is no happy beginning and very few happy things in the middle. This is because not very many happy things happened in the lives of the three Baudelaire youngsters. Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire were intelligent children, and they were charming, and resourceful, and had pleasant facial features, but they were extremely unlucky, and most everything that happened to them was rife with misfortune, misery, and despair. I'm sorry to tell you this, but that is how the story goes.

Every book in this series delivers an unhappy ending, much misery, much despair, and much worry. Indeed, it would be best to buy out all of your local bookstores of these books, so that they may not sadden the lives of our youth.

COnsitering what the schools make them read? Somehow I feel that these would be a step up forthe pore little children.
After all ... Surius is dead.
