Yes. (view spoiler) The one who played Luke looks like Hugh Jackman.
Magnus Bane is gorgeous! he's hotter than Jace. lol. I agree with you.

I think Luke looks like Zachary Levi in a way. For me, he's the hottest in the movie. Lol!
I like the short shorts of Magnus. Haha!

I can't stop laughing on those super-mini shorts. =)) I really like the movie. Hopefully City of Ashes is better

I don't think so,but movies in English doesn't get much priority here.I just hope that when Divergent releases,I'll be able to see it.


message 2864: by Tati (new)

Tati Greta,

it's about the United Nations, and how it depends on state's interests to fulfill its role (with a case study about Iraq). So far, I only have the first chapter ready (still editing the other two).

I'm kinda dispirited, so I think I'll give up on having it proofread, since I can't stand the thought of having to read the whole thing again to make any corrections.

But thank you, and Sarah too, for offering to help!

Luke played by Aidan Turner who also plays Kili in The Hobbit. Never thought that a dwarf could be so hot :D

i always used to do that. I reasoned that I needed to know how the story ended, just in case I died before I finished it. I know that's strange!

I used to do the exact same thing, with the same rationalization! I now consider myself a recovering spoiler addict, and I'll probably have to fight the urge a bit forever.

It fell and now she's looking around fearing for her life. Haha.

My boyfriend's mother did something similar. she called at 10 at night sounding all panicked, and I was like 'what's wrong? Is somebody dead?' and got told 'The sky box isn't working!'

She woke me up at 3 in the morning once, screaming her head off, because one ran over her hand.

I used a cup, and threw it out the window.
She turned around and said "He'll be better outside"
She keeps looking around for more!

Cross country starts tomorrow and usually I'm very excited to get started with it. This year I haven't felt particularly motivated for anything :(

Disappointed with this. I was rooting for Ian Somerhalder. :\ He's more of Christian Grey.

Me too. Ian Somerhalder has the sexy smoldering dominating look. I would have loooovvved him as Christian, but I might be ok with Charlie Hunnam if they keep his hair short and his face clean. His look on Sons of Anarchy doesn't work for Christian at all.


message 2898: by Greta (new)

Greta (goodreadsgreta) | 4545 comments Charlie Hunnam is attractive, but I don't know. Isn't Christian supposed to be suave and urbane? Charlie just seems more rugged.

So true Jalyn! When I've read it, Ian Somerhalder came up to my mind. He's just perfect for Christian Grey. Charlie Hunnam is attractive but I see him as a different character. More of Caleb from
Captive in the Dark (The Dark Duet, #1) by C.J. Roberts
