Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I love that title and apparently so does Warner Bros, who just picked up the rights to the eventual book (from a proposal), written by Daily Show staff writer Josh Lieb, who will also pen the screenplay. McG will produce.

It's about a chunky 13 year old who isn't exactly the most popular kid in the 7th grade. But in reality he's an evil super-genius and one of the richest people on the planet. His family is as unaware as everybody else as their son organizes Central American coups from his secret underground lair beneath the house.

Unfortunately, the dirty business requires he hides his identity... he also can't claim his evil empire legally until he turns 18.

He may be evil, but he's still a boy and wants to prove himself to his father, so he runs for class president, which he finds more difficult than most of his evil pastimes.

Sounds out there and twisted. I like it! You?
