Yes it is.

Maybe it's just me (it probably is), but sometimes when I'm watching a Harry Potter movie, and Voldemort shows up on the screen in his wizarding robes, I can't help but remember a certain bumper/promo for the Jackie Chan Adventures that was often played during the credits of other shows, where the following exchange (as best as I can remember it) took place between Valmont/Shendu and his minions:

"What's with the dress?"
"It's not a dress. It's a sorcerer's gown."
"Isn't a gown a dress?"
"No it isn't."
"Yes it is."
"No it isn't!"
(Pause)
"Yes it is."

It makes me laugh every time and I wish that I could find it again, but try as I might, I haven't been able to. (Believe me, I've tried.) I don't think I'm crazy because I know of at least one other person who remembers it, but still, it would be nice to see again. (Maybe it's tucked away on one of my random VCR tapes.) Anyway, I always have a good laugh when I think of it.


















(Sorry, boys, but it is.)

(And another thing. Voldemort dear, maybe if you'd invested in a good pair of boots, some sensible shoes, or even a pair of sandals bought at the wizard dollar store, you might have stood a chance of winning, or had a far better attitude. I'm just saying, there's a lot of stuff out there to step or stub your toes on...)
