I think that's a complement Yar!
Don't get me started on the movie. I'm not happy about it. For starters the press releases have the evil capital P that I thought I killed in 2000.
They could potentially make an awesome movie. The BFM war was pretty good with the plotline and all. if that was the movie and they made it well, i'd totally go see it

Yeah but inflation will most defintley go up with a billion and a half new members. I wonder how bad it will get...And how many new users...and how many new pets named lolzneopetzroxcutebabyz1129928380.

``From the very beginning, we wanted to introduce the characters through the Web and bring it into the real world. It's not low budget to make a quick buck. We're making a quality film to develop the story line.''
While the characters boast a sizable following online, toy industry observer Jim Silver said they haven't fully caught on with consumers. While a hot brand such as Mattel Inc.'s Barbie or MGA Entertainment's Bratz dolls could be tarnished if a movie tanked, he saw only an upside for the lesser-known Neopets.
``When you've got a successful property, do a movie and it fails, it hurts the brand,'' said Silver, who publishes Toy Wishes Magazine. ``They've got a successful Internet brand, but not much exposure elsewhere, so they can attract new people. There's definitely potential there.''

I don't think I could go through going from McD to McD seeing which place got what in. If they HAVE to do another promotion, make it short and alot less things to collect.

1st, they have a great site with millions of players, I wouldn't want that to change!
2nd, they have tons of merchandice to get money.
Now why do they want a movie.... because they are golddiggers.
Yeah they have neopets premium, but that probobly money that goes for new merchandice and paying these great people who work for neopets.
But a movie, I wouldn't go and see that its probably just a piece of rotten bolognia.
