10:32pm: Fanficrants, you amaze me again!
Over at [info]fanficrants, [info]grand_sealink rants about the Howl's Moving Castle fandom.

Included in the rant:
1. The Prince was NEVER in love with Sophie. Shut up.
2. It's MICHAEL. Not Markle. Not Markl. MICHAEL. (YES, you stupid bastards, Hayao Miyazaki and/or fansubbers GOT. IT. WRONG.
3. Sophie has TWO sisters, not three, not eight, not 932857293875. Their names are Martha and Lettie.


HORRAY FOR ELITISM!

What [info]grand_sealink fails to realize is that she was ranting about how inaccurate Miyazaki's movie is compared to the book, and people go crazy. Well, not so crazy as one can get when calling another person an elitist.

And of course, [info]grand_sealink comes to defend herself, but instead of editing her post, leaves it in the comments where no one is likely to see. (besides [info]luna_hoshino, who seems to be moving in for the kill.)

Today's lesson: Think before you act and make sure you specify your "canon". Not everyone has read the Howl's Moving Castle book, so you shouldn't go around all high-nosed about it when the fangirls get it wrong.

A break in the endless stream of Harry Potter coming our way this week? We should be so lucky! But at least this one is about one mostly ignored character and the movies, and serves as a nice change of pace...

 

We finally see the first picture of Katie Leung as Cho Chang from the upcoming Goblet of Fire movie... and the fine net denizens of OhNoTheyDidnt LJ community get to demonstrate their maturity, willingness to believe all "chinks" look alike and deep loathing of anyone who gets to peck THEIR Daniel Radcliffe-- all in one handy, 6-page wank!
