Who will win the World Series? Take a survey!

Wow, so the Red Sox came back and won the series from the Cleveland Indians, and I can't say that I'm happy about it. Still, it should hopefully be a good World Series... with the Colorodo Rockies prevailing, of course. And no, I'm not a huge Colorodo Rockies fan, but I am now - and ever since the Sox won a few years back, I no longer have any interest in them.

Anyway, here's a quick InstantSurvey where you can say who you think will win and other opinions about baseball. Take the survey now!

Take a horror movie survey - win 6 DVDs

As Halloween is fast approaching, I figured I'd get rid of some DVDs I had lying around (most, if not all, are unopened), but don't think I'm going to give them away for nothing. No, I require just about 60 seconds of your life to take a horror survey, which allows you to rank the best and worst horror franchises and dictate what the most anticipated horror movie of 2007 is.

The horror movie survey is now closed, but you can see some of the horror movie survey results here.

Harry Potter survey: 75% of people think Dumbledore is still alive

According to a recent GMI Poll, 75% of people think Albus Dumbledore is NOT dead and will return in the upcoming Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the last (maybe) Harry Potter book from J.K. Rowling.

The poll surveyed over 500 people from GlobalTestMarket (an online survey website) to see what people thought would happen in the new book. I'd have to agree with all of the people who suggested Dumbledore is not dead (personally, I think he is either dead or faking it, but regardless his "death" is an intentional move to get Voldemort to trust Snape.

On Snape, readers are torn... a whopping 48% still think that's he a good guy, while the other 52% follow the simplest solution that Snape has indeed turned back to the dark side.

As for the fate of Voldemort, 77% people think that he will indeed fall at the hands of Harry, but over 60% think that Harry will not survive the end of the book. Personally, I think Harry will survive (regardless of how dark the stories have gotten, Harry Potter is still a children's franchise, and I think the series can end just fine without killing off the main character), though I can't discount the possibility of him sacrificing himself to make Voldemort vulnerable - a possibility 52% of people think.
