WHAT. THE. FUCK.

They're making a Pride and Prejudice MOVIE starring KIERA KNIGHTLEY. For god's sake! She's not even British! She CAN'T ACT. Just cause she did Love Actually doesn't mean she can go traipsing around Austen country on Colin and Jennifer's turf

You realize, of course, that Keira Knightly was born in Teddington, Middlesex, England? Rather British, wot?

She came to fame in a British movie, too... NOT Love Actually... Bend it Like Beckham? You recall? She's British, honey. Sorry. And she doesn't really suck that much... at least her accent's real unlike most people.

As for this Matthew MacFayden character... he played Hareton Earnshaw in the 1998 version of Wuthering Heights... not much else of note. IMDB doesn't even have his picture. Born in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, England. So also true blue Brit. Stop dying.

Hareton was HOT, dude.

UH...in the book. I don't know about the movie; I haven't seen it. ^_____^

Except for the part where he beat puppies.

Oh, wait. That was Heathcliff.

...Why did I think Heathcliff was hot again?

[theprophecy47]

I think it was something like... he'd be good in bed. I disagree, but I remember Areiyu saying that. ;) I'm in love with Hareton, personally. :)

Yeah, she's definitely British, yo.

But I'm so loyal to the other version that I'm still disturbed by that news. Oh well. We'll always have Colin... ;)

She's a little too glamourous to be Elizabeth, I think. Bleh.

There, there, honey *hug*

I don't think it would bother me so much if it wasn't for the fact that it sounds like they're casting a part for HER instead of her for the PART, just because she's such a popular actress right now...like what they did with Guinevere, and Lizzie's probably going to be screwed up in one way or another too >_<

..Oh, and no one's ever going to be better at being Darcy than Colin Firth, so the new one is going to suck by default? :P

EXACTLY

[riko]

write your chapter

[riko]

And she is so British!

[riko]

and write your chapter

[arcanapi]

Fine! Geez, I stand corrected. That still doesn't make her good for the part. :P
