MoSeS:
This is slightly off topic, but I thought it interesting how Nicolas Cage is the Executive Producer of the Dresden Files TV show and now he is going to play a "sorcerer" in this upcoming film (another Disney movie by the way).

The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010)
Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina). Balthazar can't do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It'll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes The Sorcerer's Apprentice.

heh, there's a thread dedicated to that in Media Favorites. xD

his costume DOES look heavily inspired by DF covers, though.

Wow! Am I super late or what. That thread was started like 6 months ago.
There is a good argument on there though that maybe it isn't a rip off of Dresden but more of a salute to it.

I personally think it's more of a salute than a rip off.

I don't think he'd call it a rip off, anyway. Fans would rip off his head for that... ha, ha.

Speaking of Sorcerer's Apprentice and it's eerie resemblance to Dresden covers... Anyone seen the posters for Jonas Hex? ;)
