oloriel: (if there's no movie about it...)


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 Cut for very, very minor spoilers, just in case )

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

Right. Now I've been fed with all those quotes from the Ep III novelization, I am shocked to find that EVERY DIRTY THOUGHT that crossed my mind during that movie seems to have crossed the writer's mind, too. And then some.

In fact, I don't think Matt Stower actually wrote that book. It looks more like he was too busy and handed the whole stuff over to his daughter (I am assuming that he has one, and I'm assuming she writes slashfic) who happily wrote the book, taking all the implications literal and slashing anything in sight.
I can practically see the editors. "Dude, did George Lucas authorize THAT?!" - "Um. Well. George Lucas hates George Bush, so, you know, maybe he did..."
And it was published; and it was good.
