bboyminn:

Did you actually read what I wrote? The examples I gave, and
are you really trying to tell me those examples qualify as
copyright infringement? I don't think so. They are fair and
reasonable discussion and literary criticism. 

I'm not saying we should re-write the entire series. I am
saying as a method of discussing the books and as a change of
pace, we could indicate how we think certain scene could have
alternately gone. 

I firmly say, that in this context, Copyright doesn't come
into play.
