Hmm, i cannot picture bruce willis as vlad. When i picture vlad i see smone 
a bit thinner and lively looking. Kinda like a dartagnan in all the really 
awful 3 musketeer movies. Actually, i think the perfect Vlad would be the 
main charachter from 'The Count of Monty Cristo'. I just saw that movie, and 
i thought he did an outstanding job.
