@CelestialStarlet I think the best thing about Legend is the emotional connection you feel with the characters. Marie Lu makes you feel what the characters in such an amazing way.
PERCY JACKSON is special. And DIVERGENT is just plain epic. It's better than THG (which I love, but basically hate the sequels to)
Ugh. The Divergent movie. You know, I was actually looking forward to it. Shailene Woodley is an okay actress for Tris. I mean, if she looked younger and not so "perfectly-hollywood" she could actually be a better Tris. Thing is, I love Tris because she's short and looks like a twelve year old since it shows how innocent she is. It plainly says in the book that she looks like a twelve year old. I just wish they had an actual sixteen year old to play Tris. And also that Shailene is flawless. One of the reason Tobias (male love interest) likes her is because she isn't pretty, she's brave and smart. TOBIAS ACTUALLY TELLS HER STRAIGHT OUT HE DOESN'T LIKE HER FOR HER LOOKS. At that moment, I realized how perfect their relationship was going to be and that it wasn't based on lust.
But that's not even what ticked me off. I could handle Shailene Woodley and her twenty-year-old-flawlessness. I HATE who they cast as Tobias.
The actor Theo Frikkin James or whatever doesn't look like Tobias. I tell you, they should have cast Max Irons. Max Irons is the epitome of perfection for the role of Tobias/Four. But sadly, stupid movie casters probably haven't read the book.
The main thing is, I just don't want the movie to be ruined by stupid hollywood fluff. Now, we don't want another "quality" work like the PJO movie, now do we?
Man, I rant so much. xD
