Say WHAT?

An Odd Experience

autobotamy:

This basically happened to me when Katy and I talked about Sherlock at Pass The Hat.

I met a JohnLock anti today. It turned out to be my sister. I didn’t even know those types of people existed.

  Seriously

She was like:

And I was like:

I’M SORRY I LIKE IRENE/SHERLOCK TOO MUCH, OKAY?!?? SHE’S SUPER SEXY AND AN EXCELLENT MATCH FOR HIM. SHE’S THE GODDAMN WOMAN.

That awkward moment when a comedian kind of hits on you, then implies that you’re liable to be viciously raped in the city you’re moving to.

I’ll take “Gameshow hosts who were super foxy back in the day.”

Alex Trebek was a dreamboat.

So, the casting for The Hunger Games was phenomenal.

I’m super picky about book-to-movie adaptations, and casting is a big part of that. So I’m willing to concede that I liked the movie, in spite of the long list of things they did wrong. Stanley Tucci as Caesar Flickerman? Kind of perfect. And Josh Hutcherson is such a sweetheart as Peeta. I don’t think there was any casting choice I disliked.

However, I doubt there’s any way they’ll cast Beetee as I see him in Catching Fire, since I have such a clear vision of him. So that’ll be a disappointment right off the bat. He’s one of my favourites.

Also, how will they be able to get across how terrifying Snow is? You can’t show the smell of blood. Sometimes, movies, you really can’t touch the power of words and the imagination.

How did some people not realize Rue was black?

For starters, she’s described as having dark skin. But for real: she works in the field, gets whipped for misbehaving, and sings to keep her spirits up. Is District 11 in the deep south? ‘Cause girl might as well have been picking cotton.

So I’ve finally started reading The Hunger Games. That said, I’ve pretty much resigned myself to the fact that the internet has more or less ruined any surprises for me. Oh well. At least I don’t know when they happen in the books.
