I prefer a good actor who can pull up all Jace personality and I think Jamie could do that.





Exactly! this is gonna ruin the whole movie!


Ugh..Have you seen I am Number Four and Beastly?
If you have, I wonder why you stick to him considering his acting quality.

yeeeah, beastly wasn't anything great. it's too bad people pretty much just want him for his looks. sorry to say, but most of the time he's not even that good looking.

I was one of the fans who support Alex for Jace role for he is so Jace alike. It was before I saw his movies. After watching his acting, I am horrified. I do not think he could pull Jace' sarcastic self.
So...no more Alex for Jace!

I was one o..."
i wasn't against or for him in the beginning, i was indifferent about it. i could have really cared less if he got the role or not. now after seeing his movies, he's not horrible but he's just not anything special with his acting so i would rather it be someone else. either way, i still have the books and the movie isn't going to ruin the written for me.

he's meh. i don't really see anything special about him, guess i have a different taste.


I love the books and since there was a polling about suitable actors for Jace role, I was so excited and pointed at Alex Pettyfer right away. He denied the role. After that Lily made her support for Alex still, and fans wished the same. After watching his movies, some of the fans (including me) were disappointed enough with his acting. after that I chose to be indifference about who will be cast as Jace.

Alex is not good enough as Jace. He is handsome yes, but that's all. Jace is more than just beautiful figure. Jace is also wit and sarcastic.

I totally agree with you!

Absolutely!


Nope, you got it wrong. It is not that he was not picked. Alex was cast since he was number one on the wish list. He denied the role since he said he would be too busy at the time the movie starts.
Jamie, in this case, is a better actor. And he is Brit. I love British actors in fantasy movies. I wish he could pull his best to play Jace...:)

well, Alex obviously didnt have the time to do it so why is every one so upset? He could do the part so they got the next best guy! :)

I think he probably would have played a great Jace! :)

I think more fans are relief with Alex not to play Jace. Upset is felt by readers who are blinded by Alex's figure. And I was just correcting your false statement...:)
There is no best guy before the movie is released, so saying Jamie is the next best guy is absurd.







He isn't my Jace, but I'm hoping he will surprise me.
