i've been here, i've done this all before
So I'm still having a lot of Narnia cast feelings. I'm not entirely sure where this came from. I have this theory that because there were about three years between each movie, it's a sort of biological clock thing? Like some part of me recognises that three years have passed and there has not been a Narnia fandom resurgence and so it's like. Psst.

A friend of mine moved to the UK and is doing her A levels in the hope of getting in to Cambridge. The lure is strong.
Way back when, didn't Skandar say he wanted to be a doctor? I wonder what his plans are now. I took 4 and a half years to do a degree that is 3 years full time and in the end it's worked out because I think I'm in the right course now, and if I'd done it in the 3 years I'm not sure it would have worked out like this. It took me a while to realise I didn't want to be a psychologist.
He's the least naturalistic for sure, and unfortunately for Wills that's de rigueur now. If you put him back in to old movies from the 40s or something he'd probably fit in. This reminds me of something I read about Nic Cage - is he an awful ham of an actor or is he just pioneering an acting style that we're unfamiliar with? WHO KNOWS.
How apt that he was in Dorian Gray.
I can't remember if I've asked you this but have you seen Pacific Rim?

Yeah, I'd definitely give it a go and see if it can still hold my interest. It probably would be able to! And to be honest, Lola dying would kind of make sense in terms of the plot, so I'd sort of be okay with it - I mean, I still wouldn't LIKE it because I feel like there's still potential there, but at least it wouldn't seem like they were just killing her off for the hell of it? That would be more frustrating.
You know, I think he did? I was rereading some of my old fic recently to get me back into the mood, and there were a couple where I mentioned him wanting to be a doctor and I was wondering whether that was some headcanon I'd just randomly come up with or something he actually said. I do seem to remember it being discussed though. Yeah, I'd like to know what his plans are now, because like you say, that kind of thing can change. His official website last posted some news in February, but amusingly, it's just about his cats. Aww.
Hahaha, I know what you mean! I actually feel like, for some reason, he'd probably do better in British things? Maybe just because he's SO ENGLISH, but I just feel like since he already kind of sticks out as a weak actor, he's going to stick out even more in American projects. Idk.
Lol ikr. I always think that.
I think you have asked me that! Haha. I haven't, I just don't really have any interest I'm afraid. :/ But it's one of those things that loads of people like so I guess maybe I should give it a try someday, idk.

If I were the type of person who made gifsets, I'd use pregnant Lola as a stand in for AU!pregnant Susan. I reckon the clothes style's close enough.
I think from very early on he said he didn't see acting as a career. Hahaha "dragging undercarriage" :P
idk either. Maybe he should be on Neighbours or something.
It's a very silly film in a lot of ways but I think it has a nice message of cooperation. It also has a hot father-son team who have a fractious relationship but in order to pilot the robot they have to literally mind meld. They have an angsty backstory and basically it hit all my buttons.
What about Frozen?
Also I'm so excite for X-Men :D And I'm loving the continued strength of the McFassy bromance, with the addition of Hugh. They've been so fun in interviews. The three of them were on Graham Norton and I was laughing the whole time. I still love James as much as ever. I still have that poster of him from way back when - 06 or 07, I'm not sure. But I have been looking at the same picture of his face for at least 6 years. Still love it. :P

Yeah, I've seen a few posts on Tumblr with people imagining Lola as Susan and it totally works.
Uh huh. It's a shame but obviously the most important thing is for him to be doing what he wants to do. I hope he doesn't just vanish from the public eye entirely, but who knows.
Haha! Actually that Royals thing is English so it'll be interesting to see how he is in that. I feel like it's a more fitting role for him but idk.
I remember you talking about it before! I guess it just doesn't appeal for some reason. It's actually the same with Frozen, which is driving my sister crazy because she really wants me to watch it. She says there's a cute reindeer, so that might sway me. XD Aaand again with X-Men...I did actually watch First Class but I just wasn't that bothered about it. :( I swear there are so many things like that. It's annoying, because the fandoms seem fun and everything but I just can't get into it. :/
Btw, I meant to say - thank you so much for leaving kudos on some of those old fics I uploaded on AO3! ♥

(Though I think Wreck-it Ralph may beat it as my favourite Disney, or possibly Tangled. It's difficult. I just love Disney ok. That's totally ok for a *cough-cough* year old man, right? XD)

AND LOVING DISNEY FILMS IS ALWAYS ACCEPTABLE NO MATTER YOUR AGE OR GENDER. ♥ I actually haven't seen Wreck-it Ralph (though that's another one Anna wants me to watch, I think) or Tangled...I think I lean more towards the Pixar movies really.
