I was emailing people the gifs in an attachment, but some lovely soul (I'm
sorry, I can't remember your name) directed us to
http://www.animation.arthouse.org/
were there are several variations on the flying ravens, and some other nifty
animated gifs as well.

"Top of the Food Chain" is a much better title, why did they change it?  I
seem to recall seeing a similar situation before.  Is there some law that
says Canadian movies can't keep their original title when they come o the
States?

I hate to admit that I am a stupid American, but when I first saw "Top of
the Food Chain" in a heading months ago....I thought it was an advert for a
grocery store! <blush> I mean, of course I've heard of the "food chain,"
but my mind was just playing stupid.  I have to say that "Invasion" is a
very poor substitute.  It's so blah and generic, and wasn't there a TV
miniseries with Scott Bakula that was entitled "Invasion?"
