I still think you should try this book. You might not mind it. And the Twilight fans don't really like it because "OMG! Where's Edward?!?!" [only the crazy ones, though]

*giggles* I would abuse my power if I was a casting director.

OMG. I know. It's almost as creepy as the doctor list.

Orlando as DOC.

YES, now why didn't I think of that before?

I love your Wanderer choice, even if the girl looks a little too "tall" for Wanda. You're right. She has that "trustable" face.

He's perfect x] I was scared of people's reactions, though.

Emilie de Ravin is only 5' 2". She just looks tall in those pictures because she's thin.

Heh, I've been toying with Megan Fox as Melanie in my head, too :D

I really don’t like how Jared calls Melanie’s body his and that point is beaten into our heads over and over again. A man should not own a woman’s body. She owns it.

Thank you!

Woot! I'm not alone! I was afraid I was x]

You're welcome! I'm afraid I was a little too outspoken in this post.

LOL You've obviously not heard of the 'Alpha Male' stereotype prevalent in romance novels. Jared is a very typical example.

Haha, it was just something that...irked me.

XD I don't think I'll watch this if Megan Fox was the lead, not that I hate her but I think of her along the same lines as Kristin Kreuk= sex kitten more than tough as nails kick ass chick. She didn't do much in Transformers but fix stuff and look hot lol

Although I'm totally for Emilie de Ravin as Pet/Wanda. I saw her in my head like that actually, I agree, I don't particularly like Taylor Momsen for the role either.

AND OMG! I was just having a discussion on a previous thread that I pictured The Seeker as an Asian woman! I though 'Lucy Liu' LMAO

See, I differ in the fact she seemed very tomboy-ish in Transformers and that reminds me very much how I see a younger Melanie being. *shrugs* To each their own.

So did I! I really adore Emilie, anyway. [Not a Lost fan, go figure] Taylor Momsen is really tall, too. Her age and her height is what throws me off trying to picture her.

Oh, I didn't see that! My flist is out of control. I really need to organize it. But Lucy Liu is so totally awesome! I kept picturing her younger, though. Brenda Song? I think she's on The Suite Life of Zach and Cody.

We'll agree to disagree ^_^

You love Emilie but you're not a LOST fan? LOL She actaully looks a lot like I would picture Wanda in the final two seasons. And yes, Taylor is too tall- I don't think anyone will get the 'I want to protect her' vibe from a girl that's huge XD

Almond shaped eyes is how she was described and that's distinctly Asian most of the time. Brenda's cute too, but she's too cheery LOL

Exactly :]

LOL! Yeah. I first tried watching it for Dominic Monaghan because I adore Lord of the Rings, but I never could get into it. I love Emilie from her movies like Brick and The Hill Have Eyes. Weird, I know xP

Very true. She also plays a girl that you kind of want to smack on Gossip Girl, rather than protect.

It's mostly Asian, but my mum has almond shaped eyes and we're Irish-French. I know, I was trying to think of someone around the age I think Lacey/The Seeker is. Brenda is too cute x]

You're right, I do like this book alot more than Twilight for some reason. It just seems more...emotional and real. Lol as real as vampires and aliens could be I suppose.

*bows* And I think you've done a great job and I agree with most of the choices you made. I do like Megan Fox and think she would be a great Melanie! Everyone else isn't as tall looking or tough. For Ian, well I may have to work on Jared as I never really watched anything with him so it's kind of hard to imagine him as our perfect Ian O'Shea. Who do you think would be a good actor for Kyle though?

But with Orlando, Jensen, and Jared as the pbs for the characters? xD Well, then I can totally understand how Wanda would have more than one reason to want to stay in the caves...

ROFL, indeed! ;)

I think the realness is the fact it's basically kind of a human story, just from an alien's perspective x]

Woot! Another one for Megan Fox! I hope to convert some people. Not even Supernatural or Gilmore Girls? I won't be rude and say you're deprived, but I seriously recommend both shows [The early seasons of Gilmore Girls. It got a bit annoying in the end.]

I tried so hard to find a Kyle, but I couldn't think of anyone that fit and looked like Jared, so I kept his blank and open to interpretation. But I did seriously consider Tom Welling if that helps ;]

Psshhh, I'd never try to leave.
