tiny update

QUERY, FLIST:

How can the actor who played Johnny Storm in the Fantastic Four movies, go on to play Cap in the Captain America movies and the Avenger film? Of course the movies are from different universes from the comics, and even the movies are set on their own earth sometimes from movies that relate to one another (see X-Men and X-Men Origins, though don't quote me on that) but SERIOUSLY? It would be like casting Hugh Jackman as.. someone far less hairy and nice. And with less adamantium. And more patriotism. But seriously, The Human Torch ≠ Captain America.

I sort of wanted Jensen Ackles to get it, ngl. WE SHALL SEE HOW THIS PLAYS OUT.

I ALSO SAW HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON AND I AM IN POST-MOVIE-GLEE ABOUT IT. More on this later though, possibly when I've seen it again. (OH GOD IT WAS SO CUTE AND I WANT A TOOTHLESS PLUSHIE THE FUCK RIGHT NOW) ...and Hannah just showed me some popcorn that she just pulled out of her bra. My cue to end this journal I think.

That's why you have to separate them, otherwise you're going to hate it haha. And it's a different medium so things have to be done differently, it's not really meant to just be a carbon copy of the original. I used to be a huge stickler about this even though I'd try not to be, like I'd freak out about the tiniest little changes but I'm taking a film class this semester lol. sorry. Ranting.

But yeah. I'm going to have faith in him because I want to :]. I want this movie to be good.

Well, I now consider Howl's Moving Castle the movie, and the book as two totally different things, as they are both good, but very different. It's just one directors take on a piece of media, and since the director is different from the original writers, of course it'll be different.

I WANT IT TO BE GOOD TOO. SO BAD.
