'Sleeper'
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
The bird's only natural predators were hawks and eagles.
Although, I bet that owls took a few too.
And even if we didn't slaughter them they would have suffered because we destroyed their natural habitat. (By clearing all so much of the forests between the Atlantic and the Mississippi.)
Is there a SciFi movie about a mad scientist who harvests passenger pigeon DNA and regrows them á la Jurassic Park, and then they breed rapidly á la Gremlins and begin attacking people á la The Birds ? If not, why?

That must've been like a buffet line for the raptors.
If not, why?
Have you seen Night of the Lepus?
Because horror films about not-horrible animals tend to not ping the primal fear centers in the brain.
P-C, you should totally propose that to SciFi. Perhaps you could include the Giant Auk and the Sea Mink. Ooh and the Carolina Parakeet!
Well, maybe something like the Attack of the Were-Rabbit. . .
Some of these I totally see--Chow Yun Fat as Morpheus in The Matrix, and others make the movie way too different.
I think the turning down that surprised me the most was Kate Hudson picking The Four Feathers over Spiderman.
I just .... man, I didn't even like Spiderman. I still would have taken the role.
Daniel Day Lewis would've made a good Aragorn.
Not that I'm unhappy with Viggo, but DDL would've been good.
Have you seen Night of the Lepus?
Generally, Hec, the answer to "Have you seen [movie]?" coming from you is no. Heh.
I wonder why Christina Ricci didn't get the role of Lolita. She seems perfect. Perhaps too perfect? Dunno. Never saw it.
