caithreamDear Hollywood.
I don't ask for much. Sometimes I get unbelievably excited for your movies, but most of the time, I just let you do your thing.
But I am asking you, begging you: omfg please cast Jensen Ackles as Finnick Odair in the Hunger Games series.
From the (spoiler ridden) Hunger Games wiki:
Katniss views Finnick as being kind, though a bit conceited. He was described as being extremely handsome. He was tall, muscular, and athletic, with golden skin, bronze-colored hair, and "incredible" sea green eyes. Katniss also states that he has a seductive purr which he used on her when they met in the 3rd Quarter Quell.
~Incredible~ sea green eyes? BAM. Bronze-colored hair? DONE. Seductive purr? HE'S BEEN PERFECTING THAT SINCE SEASON 4, OKAY. CLEARLY Jensen is the only obvious choice here.
PLUS, he can play the woobiest woobie that ever woobied SO incredibly well, which would be perfect for that section of Mockingjay when he was basically, you know, mentally incapacitated. But then he would die (death by mutated lizards ;_;) and I would cry my eyes out more than should be healthy. SEE, HE'S HAD PLENTY OF DEATH SCENES TO WORK WITH TOO. If you cast anyone else, Hollywood, I will set you on fire.
I honestly don't want the Hunger Games trilogy to be made into movies, though. They're probably going to Hollywood-ize it to high heaven and ruin that feel that it has. I could be wrong; I hope so. Just... at LEAST cast people who are relative unknowns (I've seen a couple articles that have the audacity to suggest Taylor Butterface Lautner as Gale, which, UH, NO AND ALSO NO) and who aren't prolific. And I hope they don't have Katniss go the route of what I like to call the "Scarlett Johansson Action Movie Syndrome," where she's beautiful! and her hair never goes out of place! and she has boobs! and she kicks ass! Which, hey, there's nothing wrong with a hot girl kicking ass, but when the sexiness that they're flaunting begins to overcome her actual character? Not cool. But, I mean, Katniss is only sixteen, so I think they won't go that route, but still, aughhh, I wouldn't put it past anybody.
OPINIONS AND STUFF.
My friends should be here soon and then we're going to attempt to watch Run Lola Run. Last time we tried we ended up just putting on my dvd of MXC and talking for like, three hours. BUT I NEED HARDCORE GERMAN TECHNO MUSIC IN MY LIFE.
