Great casting, but everything else is a little bit of a letdown.

I feel like they’re about to ruin my favorite book of all time, just as they did with The Host (Not a fan of Twilight, but Stephenie Meyer’s The Host is superb)

How many ways can they rehash this idea?

Seems like good casting so far. Terrible company about to produce it. My favorite book in the world, I swear if they fuck it up. They already have the genre on IMDB set as ‘comedy’ which pisses me off enough. Shit.

I’m so so excited my favourite book is going to be a film, but I’m never going to be happy about the way they produce it, sorry.
