Save your breath and your indignation -- Vernian accuracy has never yet
swayed a single filmmaker. After all, the Michael Todd film whose showing
began this thread added the balloon trip through Europe (so for many people
that's the signature of 80 DAYS), and has Aiouda show up in the Reform Club
finale. Let's see if this even gets off the ground (and if it does, believe
me I will have seen worse!)
