Lyra & the movies, II

[oloriel]

Thanks to Enlothien, I managed to catch another movie I wanted to see: Inkheart.

The movie is surprisingly awesome, even as a children's book adaptation, and I should write a nice review.

But you know what? I cannot brain this late in the year.

So may I just say OMG DUSTFINGER/FARID=OTP yes/yes?
I mean, holy crap, SO SLASHABLE.

I did get no slash vibes in the book whatsoever - but then in the book Farid is what, 15? and his feelings for Dustfinger are pure hero worship.
In the movie, Farid is 19 or so, seems to come straight (... or not) from the Arabian Nights Wraeththu edition, and where the Farid/Meggie storyline was just vaguely annoying in the book (but then, infatuated teenagers are annoying), now I won't be able to believe in it at all.

Hot damn, now I am really grateful Meggie and Farid don't end up as an item in book 3.

Why the hell are there no decent screenshots around? HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE ICONS LIKE THIS?!
