ok, so not only is Eric Bana in The Time Traveler's Wife, he's in The Other Boleyn Girl....I think that book was mentioned here. For EB, I might have to do some reading. LOL!

I loved TOBG. PG does a great job with her research and history. She brings the characters to life, and does justice to the history.

I'm so-so about the movie coming up. I love all the actors, Eric, Natalie, Scarlett, but can't see any of them in the roles. That's why I usually hate movie adaptations from books. Big Hollywood studios usually trounce on historical accuracy and facts, and make a muck of books. I love me my English history, and being an obsessed English history person, am a stickler about it.

I'm gonna try (try) to keep an open mind about it though. If anything, EB is a hottie for me to watch.

Well, they didn't make Henry fat. LOL! So I think I'm good with it. Eric Bana looks good.

I was so-so until the trailer. It's right up my alley - so I know I'll be checking it out. But I am so-so on Natalie Portman's role.

I'm glad too they didn't make him fat, cuz he was really athletic and attractive during his relationship with Anne. It wasn't until later w/ his leg injury that he got fat. Glad we don't have to see fat EB. That would be bad.

I saw Little Women over the weekend - the older version with Elizabeth Taylor. I really liked it! Of course, they took a ton of scenes out, but it was very heartwarming and emotional. Still don't think Amy deserved to have Lori though.

I love the old Liz Taylor version. That's probably my fave LW version.

I was reading Stephanie Meyer's website about the Twilight movie. In one of her interviews, she noted that she originally wanted Henry Cavill to play the role of Edward. Yum!

But I think I like Robert Pattinson in the role. He's grown on me.

Seems like Henry Cavill is so damn popular these days. Everyone wants him, and I can see why :-) He is once again being mentioned as the forerunner to play Superman in the next movie. He was almost cast in the last one too. I don't think it would be a good role for him, but given his attitude toward working as an actor I can see him doing it.

"In one of her interviews, she noted that she originally wanted Henry Cavill to play the role of Edward. Yum!"
--I can see why since he's so damn eat-him-up yummy :-) I don't like Twilight, the story, the concept or anything (not my type of thing) so I'm glad he won't be attached to it.

Oh no no no. I love Henry Cavill, but definitely not as Edward Cullen. I imagine Edward more on the "pretty" side. Henry is more manly.

But I'm sure if he was cast for it, I would have gotten used to it. I actually see him more in the role of Emmet, Edward's brother.

I'm happy with the casting with Pattinson. I enjoyed him in Harry Potter so I'm interested to see what else he can bring to the screen.

OMG, my little sis (she's 12) loves Taylor Lautner. She says he's going to play a werewolf or something like that. She keeps talking about him and telling me about Twilight. She's so cute! We're now fighting over whose boyfriend is hotter :-)
