Funny thing is, that idea came to me but more or less having Pual Giamatti's Exterminator come over to help Wayne (Church) the exterminator. I want to write an Over the hedge fic really bad, I just need a solid idea to start with.

Funny you mention the exterminators because I remember the critics complained about both of them in both films, saying how both Sideways stars Giamatti and Church ended up as exterminators in family CGI flicks.

I think Hedge did a pretty good job covering all characters, even though some did shorter periods of air time. But I found Heather to be a sweet character and I liked seeing her with Ozzie, even if it was brief at times.

When she got kicked in the staircase, I was hurt because she REALLY looked dead to me. The Exterminators though I have to say Church did a far better performance then Giamatti, Paul barely had any lines and was WAY too cliche.

No personality was established and his defeat was too stupid to swallow. Wayne was much more tolerable and while his whole "verminator" attitude was typical, at least they gave him a personality and an idea of who he is.
