Neil Gaiman, most definitely yes. I had the opportunity to exchange, oh, twenty words with him at Worldcon last year. I told him that I embarrassed myself by laughing out loud on a public bus while reading Good Omens. He said, "I like embarrassing people on busses".
I also got to hear him read the first chapter of the rough draft of Anansi Boys, and talk about writing and stuff like that. I'm actually writing a LOT more because of it, and I consider my trip to Worldcon one of those points in life where you come to a decision. I decided I actually can write, and want to, and someday when I publish my first novel, Neil will be high up on the list of people I dedicate it to.
Not to mention he looks really good in a tux and glasses. Oh, yes.
And...Francisco Bosch plays a eunuch? Well. I have GOT to see this movie.
