Beautiful Creatures

As a major fan of the book series, I was excited when I read that the book was going to be adapted from book to the big screen. Then I saw the trailer and was, well, really disappointed. All the older chracters look great, the girl playing Lena looks good but Ethan, Link and especially Ridley were extremely miscast. Now I'm dreading the movie release and I'm afraid that movie isn't going to live up to the book. I think this book adaptation's going to flop because alot of other fans of the book feel the same way. I'm just glad John Breed, Marian, and Liv aren't introduced in this one. It gives me hope that if the first does well enough to make the second movie, that they find people who will fit the part.

Just bought this trilogy online 'bout a week ago, along with the first three "The Mortal Instruments" and first two Dresden Files.

Yay for spending Christmas money on cheap books on AMAZON!!!

I'm only somewhat interested because of Jeremy Irons. The trailer looked pretty weak.

I haven't read the books but the movie has potential. Now I will just wait for it and weigh in accordingly. This looks like it could give the movie versus more matchups against the Harry Potter wizards. I hope this movie is enjoyable and does well as I love fantasy film movies.

The film's potential is confined entirely to Jeremy Irons' voice and Emmy Rossum's everything.

Jeremy Iron's voice definitely stands out. Personally, I don't think this will be even close to a mega hit from the preview but I have no idea what kind of following the books have garnered. I didn't know anything about Twilight or Harry Potter until the films. Once I get started in one medium I can't really go to another.

I read the book I am Legend and when I saw the film it thoroughly disgusted me. I like these movie chain fantasies to take off to have more comparisons for the versus if anything.

Where is the love for Emmy Rossum? She's sexy by any reasonable standards (i.e. physical sight & pulse).

Looks like standard Twilight-esque angsty crap.

Rossum is great in Shameless though.

Yeah but what about Emmy Rossum? Have you all no appreciation for eye candy?

So you'd rather not have the Twilight films not exist ?

Is it true she gets nekkid with titillating frequency?

Don't care if they exist or not.

What does that question have to do with what I said?

Oh yes. Just saw her naked in this last Sunday's episode. It's nice.

She's thoroughly intoxicating. A top 5 pick for me.

It's good for the movie industry overall that they do exist. You simply only care about yourself.

I recommend you watch Shameless. It's a well written show.

There's plenty of other naked women in it as well. Some dudes too, if you're into that.

The Twilight saga is fractionally redeemed by the alluring presence of Ashley Greene, another top fiver.

You're trying too hard again.

I am making valid points. I care about the movie industry not just movies I thoroughly enjoy. You think with your feelings too much. In closing you are a woman.

That's what the word on the street is. My girlfriend is presently entranced by the hour long monument to gore and fvcking that is Game of Thrones. With the exception of Californication and a few others, I've avoided the premium channel shows.
