Oooh, neat...
Feb. 5th, 2010 04:25 pmI will admit, I had my doubts about this movie with all the wank going on about the casting and whatnot, but after seeing this:
I want to go to there.
I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT FOR THIS MOVIE TO COME OUT!
That little boy is badass! I mean, shiiiiiiiit! I would love to offer something more insightful, but whenever I think about this trailer I just start squeeing and stand up and pretend I'm bending things in my room, because I want to live in this trailer.
Legend of the Seeker casting WIN! [containsawesome spoilers]

You've probably heard the news already, but it's so full of win I don't see why it shouldn't be posted again!
[DAHLIA] 20’s, Gorgeous, cunning Mord’Sith who has feelings for Cara and truly believes she’s paving the way for them to be together.
More ghey lovin' for Cara? YES PLZ!!!
Too bad it sounds like she's gon' be evil. Oh well, evil chicks are hot ... ask Denna.
In other news, I'm so happy to have this sexy beast on my television screen every week again! Oh, Polly Walker, I didn't realize how much I'd missed you being awesome, and scheming and sexy until you came back to me.
Okay, okay, I won't go crazy (er). Let's say, "And the Golden Globe goes to ... Megan Fox!"
Currently, this is a fever dream, but it might not be as unlikely as you might think. At least not according to Mickey Rourke who says that Mega Hot *ahem* Megan Fox

is, "probably the best young actress [he's] ever worked with." - source
Yessss! I love Foxy and am always all:

When people are all, 'slut can't act' about her. However, Megan's most notable roles being Transformers and Transformers 2 has thwarted my attempts to convince people to give her a chance.
Hopefully now that will change.
Oh, plz jeebus, let this be true. It would just make me really, really happy for Megan to blow people out of the water and to be all, "I knew she could act after watching Jennifer's Body bitches!"
Not to mention, a legit acting careers means years and years of funny interviews from Foxy.
Plz, plz be good Megan! I'm pulling for ya, kid!
I'm reading the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series now, and I'm really enjoying the books. They're fun, fast reads, and I love Greek Mythology so it's a blast reading about all of the Gods/Goddesses, the Titans and all of the mythological creatures. It just disturbs me that in the books the kids are like 12/13 years old, but in the movie they look like this!

Cause Annabeth Chase (above) is kickass in the books, and because I saw pictures of Alexandra Daddario before I started reading the books, I picture her in my mind as Annabeth ... and consequently I want Annabeth femslash. However, i r groced out because any fanfic out there now would be about the books and I don't want to be reading stories with kissing about 12 year olds.
Therefore, I need the movie to come out nao so that people will start writing movie fic, where the actors are delightfully legal (and characters who are around 16-17 years old), so that I can ship Annabeth/Clarisse and Annabeth/Thalia without grossing myself out.
I want to go to there.

Sweet! Enjoy! It's a really good movie for re-watching. I always catch things I missed before that make me love it even more. Plus, you get to look at Megan and Amanda, which is it's own reward ;)

Hate is a powerful thing. It blinds people. Even after watching Jennifer's Body people will insist that she can't act, and I'm just like "You're jello. Lime green jello."
Whatevs.

Really, the whole hate/jealously thing is mindboggling anyway. I mean, the way people post about her you'd think she was Hitler or Stalin or Ann Coulter or something.
Woot, LotS gay love. Excellent!
This! I liked Leo, honestly, I did. But after that small kiss with Triana all of Cara's hookups were dudes, and she legit didn't even check out of Denna's girls, and I was beginning to wonder if TPTB were even gonna keep her bi (except for sweepsweek).
So this news makes me very happy. Plus, Tabrett getting to flirt with anyone/anything is just pure sex, so you know it's gon' be good.

Date: 2010-02-05 11:43 pm (UTC)She's not listed :( Which is stupid. I mean, other than Luke she's the camper who's mentioned most whose name isn't
Peter JohnsonPercy Jackson, Annatbeth Chase, Grover or Luke.The casting bugs me for the percy jackson movie because of how old the actors look
Well, considering the series spans five books, casting so old does seem problematic. I mean, are they going to have Percy in University or something? Logan Lerman could pass as a maturelooking grade nine kid, but Alexandra already looks like a student teacher, no way could they pass Annabeth off as a grade nine. And the guy that's playing Grover looks like he should be picking his kids up from school, not going to school.
If the movie does well, they're def. gonna have to fudge around with Percy's RL setting to four the other four movies.
but damn does it look bitchin' O.O
Doesn't it though? Doesn't it? I can't wait.
and I think I need to start watching this legend of the seeker, or at least reading fic
You need to do both, but you need to watch the show first. Just start with the second season, they'll give you a nifty recap of what happened the first season and then you'll see Cara and you won't care about anything but seeing more of that blonde goddess of pain. Honestly, after the season 2 premiere you'll want to just keep watching and watching and watching the show!
no subject
Date: 2010-02-06 12:01 am (UTC)I'm pretty sure she at least is around 15 to 17-ish in the first few books, and besides, you can still write PG fic or age them up a little... ;)
But Goddamn, if you haven't gotten to book 5 yet Clarisse does not disappoint-- not only is there some heavy femslashy subtext with her and a 'best friend' in her actual age group but she wins the award for Supreme Crowning Moment of Utter Badassery in the entire series bar none. ♥
Also re: the movie-- as glad as I am that Rosario Dawson's character is getting expanded thus = more of her, I am quite saddened that they went through all the trouble of getting Uma Thurman... for a bad guy who's in there for all of five seconds. )':

Date: 2010-02-06 01:39 am (UTC)Yeah, I'm not really thrilled about the casting for the movie. The Ang kid seems good, he looks like he's going to be amazing in the action sequences anyway, but the other main characters are kind of 0_o.
Like, it's awful when I wish that they would've been able to keep Jesse MacCartney as Zuko.
Also, Percy Jackson = good series? I just heard about it because of the movie and it's been a long time since I've read anything other than university books.
I'm really enjoying the series. I just demolished the first two books. And it would definitely be some nice, light, imaginative reading to give your brain a break from those heavy, intense university books.

Date: 2010-02-06 01:14 am (UTC)I hope Dahlia is like Berdine in the books, personally. She was snarky like nobody's business and she flirted with Richard like she was hot for his trot, but then she was like, "Yo... I'm super lezza. I just like teasing you." And Kahlan laughed because she had awesome gaydar... but obviously love is blind when it comes to Cara.

Date: 2010-02-06 01:33 am (UTC)lol! OMG, this made me laugh for so long. I love Bernadine now and I haven't even read the books! That's just awesome.

Blindfolded, maybe! Cause Cara insists that the agiel feels better when you don't know it's coming, lol!

If you want you can even just start with the second season (cause Cara is awesome personified and once you see her you will want to devour the show like is drizzled in caramel), and then you can go back and watch the first season when you run out of second season episodes so that the lovefest never has to end!
And swords. Weaponry is hawt.
Wait til you see the agiels in action. You'll feel like you shouldn't be turned on my them, but you will be ;)

Date: 2010-02-06 02:23 am (UTC)And I just actually finished the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. I started it because the movie looked like fun and i LOVE Greek Mythology.
I wasnt a huge fan of the writing style at first but the content pulled me through the first part of the first book and then I just couldnt stop. But yeah their ages in the books kinda bugged me:S
However it was still a fun read and i'm psyched about the movie and future femslash:p hahaha
But hey! I havent seen if Clarisse is even gonna be in the movie yet- i cant find her on the imdb page:S
also i feel like Artemis in the books shoulda been a but older in the books and slash the heck out of her and any female character!!!! hahaha

Date: 2010-02-06 11:51 pm (UTC)This. I already want to eat it up with a spoon (ridiculous casting and all)
I just actually finished the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. I started it because the movie looked like fun and i LOVE Greek Mythology.
It looking awesome and loving Greek mythology is exactly why I started reading as well. I just finished the third book, and I can't wait to finish the other two.
But yeah their ages in the books kinda bugged me:S
I'm much happier now that they're like 14/15 years old. I can picture teenagers adventuring like they do, and not dying. But at 12 I was just like, "baby no, don't fight the monster. You should be at home drinking hot coco and watching the Disney Channel!"
I havent seen if Clarisse is even gonna be in the movie yet- i cant find her on the imdb page:S
I didn't see her listed at imdb either, which is mystifying considering that she plays a pretty big role in the book series. I mean they've got Silen Beauerguard in the movie (who's not even mentioned in the first book) but they don't have Clarisse?
also i feel like Artemis in the books shoulda been a but older in the books and slash the heck out of her and any female character!!!! hahaha
Yeah, Artemis looking 12 really bothered me. In fact all of the Hunters being 12-ish bothered me, simply before that whole situation was like made for slash fic. I'm hoping the movie does well, so that we can see the Hunters on screen eventually. Cause you know they'll be played by people in the 19-25 age range, and once that happens I can slash them easily. I mean, Zoe/Artemis was like fucking true love.

Date: 2010-02-06 11:58 pm (UTC)The movie is based on the animated series "Avatar: The Last Airbender" which aired on Nickelodeon in the U.S. The animated series is actually really, really good. I would totally recommend it.
I've just started on LotS, still in season 1, I like swords...
Heh. Swords and badass chicks are totally why I started watching as well, and it definitely doesn't disappoint. The series honestly just keeps getting better and better. Enjoy the awesome!
I'm excited for the Percy Jackson film too, Annabeth/Thalia totally...!
I cannot wait to see that on screen! The movie better do well so that we can see Thalia, and the Hunters and Clarisse (if she's really not in this film).

Date: 2010-02-06 10:59 pm (UTC)I can't wait for The Last Airbender. All I know is that it has to produce a sequel so I can see Toph, the most bad ass earth bender ever.
Cara gayness and Megan Fox are obviously awesome.
Annabeth/Clarisse, I would so read that. Just wait till they introduce the hunters. If that doesn't ooze gay potential I don't know what will(sadly they'll too young, so I just think they've go potential and will be awesome if ever introduced in movie form). Plus Clarisse dominates in book five. Lets just say I hated her when I started the series and now she's my favorite character. I can't wait for you to finish the series!
And for fun, if I was in these fandoms/worlds were real I would be:
Avatar: Earth Bender(but water and fire are pretty awesome too)
LoTS: Mordsith...duh
Olympians: child of Ares(that one was really hard) and I would totally join the hunters

This. I was so sad when I realized Toph wouldn't be in this one. M. Night better not screw it up because I want more of these movie. I want live-action as well as cartoon Avatar awesomeness!
Just wait till they introduce the hunters. If that doesn't ooze gay potential I don't know what will(sadly they'll too young, so I just think they've go potential and will be awesome if ever introduced in movie form).
I literally just finished reading the third book and I LOVED the Hunters and Artemis. I'm very displeased that they were all in the 12-ish age range because the Hunters and Artemis in general were like made to be femslashed. I hope the movie does well so that we can get 19-25 year old actresses playing the Hunters. When this happens I'mma slash them like its my job. Zoe/Artemis was like true fucking love.
Avatar: Earth Bender(but water and fire are pretty awesome too)
LoTS: Mordsith...duh
Olympians: child of Ares(that one was really hard) and I would totally join the hunters
Avatar: Waterbender (the earth, wind and fire last, only because it's so destructive)
LoTS: Mord'Sith for sure, Confessors not gettin' the sexin' makes it less appealing. Being a Sister of the Light/Dark would be alright as well.
Olympians: Child of Athena (I've always thought Athena was kickass), I'd say Hunter next but I'd wanna look like a mid-late teens at least. Being eternally pre-teen doesn't appeal to me, lol. Then child of Ares, seems like fun.
