Itxamara | 779 comments Please! I need news about the movie, I can't wait for all the movies of TMI! :')

Sabina | 11 comments Hey, I can't wait either!
Cofa is coming out later than expected because they weren't going to make the film because so many people didnt like the first one but the producers decided that they could improve so yeah it won't come out until like next year or maybe even the year after :(

Sabina | 11 comments *coa


message 4: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments I read something about that but damn! I just hope they make it very cool. Even though every time I see the movie characters makes me think that the people playing the roles are not the people I imagined :/ makes me sad but I really hope that it gets better for COA! Can't wait to hear more news


message 5: by Sabina (new)

Sabina | 11 comments Yeah same, and yeah I feel the same way about the characters too but I just can't wait for it to come out I hope it's better than the first :)


message 6: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Totally, I'm totally hoping to see good improvement. I know I'll cry lol. I really hope they get to film the second part of the books :) CoHF was just <3

Melodi Goldraven (goldraven) | 14 comments If we assess the movie in its own, movie was good. But we know the book we read the book so we know the characters, we know the whole story so we know the details. But i'm waiting the second movie! But i thing the should stick on the book.


message 8: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments I totally agree, I liked the movie in its own but to be about the TMI books it wasn't nothing as I expected. Of course, I think the audience was too harsh but I really hope the next movie comes out with more details and more action :D


message 9: by Naomi (new)

Naomi Speakman (missmorgenstern) | 1379 comments The producers/director or whoever signed a contract before the CoB movie ensuring that they are under strict orders to make the first three books into movie adaptations.
They are still going to go through with CoA, but it could be ten years from now. And truthfully, if CoA is going to be successful, they would have to remake CoB, because the plot differed so vastly from the original storyline.
And I can't see that happening anytime soon.


message 10: by Caty (new)

Caty (buecher_huhn) I couldn't care less if the movie Valentine has white hair or not, but I was pissed about the major changes in the plot. For example, there was this huge explosion in Clary's apartment right at the beginning of the film. Why?! Why stick a huge explosion in there?
Sigh.


message 11: by Naomi (new)

Naomi Speakman (missmorgenstern) | 1379 comments Precisely.
It was totally uncharacteristic for the Clary we've grown used to in the books. Blowing up her kitchen would not have been the last resort for book-Clary.
Though Jocelyn I thought was pretty badass in the movie. I dislike her in the books, but I admire Lena Heady for her badassery.


message 12: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments I totally liked Jocelyn and I liked Simon, Isabelle (even if she didn't have brown eyes), and Alec, but I think they got it wrong with Jace, Clary, and even Luke. Hopefully they get a good Maia and the Lightwoods :P


message 13: by Naomi (new)

Naomi Speakman (missmorgenstern) | 1379 comments All I care about is Sebastian.


message 14: by Naomi (new)

Naomi Speakman (missmorgenstern) | 1379 comments ... Conor McLain is Sebastian. Literally. If they do go through with CoA, and they cast a sloth as him or something, I am done with the movie franchise.


message 15: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Oh yeah, the guy on your picture display. I totally want CoG to be a movie :')


message 16: by Naomi (new)

Naomi Speakman (missmorgenstern) | 1379 comments Omg so do I!
CoG would be an explosive movie.


message 17: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Best movie! It's my favorite book I think... I mean I loved CoHF but CoG has always been my fav idk why :') hopefully they get that movie right if they make a movie lol

OMG!!! YES!


message 21: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 29 comments PLEASE NO RECASTING OR I S2G I WILL RIOT


message 22: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Recasting can be a good thing :3


message 23: by Jamie (new)

Jamie | 29 comments but they're like branded into my mind forever ill just feel so uncomfortable if they did


message 24: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Well, you know. It would be a whole new story since CoB was a big alteration to the actual book so a recast could mean that it will be a change in the story. Idk, who knows?


message 25: by Eri (new)

Eri (musicspeaksforemotionsunsaid) | 123 comments OMG OMG OMFG!!!!! IM SO HAPPY!!!
They better not re cast doe... Like I can no longer picture someone else as Jace or Clary. OR ALEC OR MAGNUS OR IZZY OR...
I just can't picture it.


message 26: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Idk I feel like Jamie Campbell ruined Jace for me. Lily too. I like them both, I have nothing against them but idk... Jamie eh he can adapt to my imagination but not lily. Simon, Magnus, Alec, and Isabelle are perfect. Oh and Jocelyn! Everyone was perfect, even Hodge! Lol, except for the main characters. I'm weird like that <.< oh well.

Yeah. I watched Jamie in different interviews and I think he should be himself more on the set. He is very rigid when he was playing Jace. I thought he could loosen up a bit. Does anyone else think that?


message 29: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments I do. I think he tried to act much like Jace that it looked more forced than natural.


message 30: by Isabella (new)

Isabella (livbet) | 20 comments I'd almost go so far as to blame the casting of Jace for the failure of the movie.


message 31: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Sad and harsh but true. Jace aka JCB wasn't what we all expected...


message 32: by Isabella (new)

Isabella (livbet) | 20 comments He has - imo - zero scene presence, and Robert Sheehan acted him off the screen. I don't see how any girl would go for Jace rather than Simon, and Jace needed to be irresistible.


message 33: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments I know! I was disappointed :/ oh well, I HOPE they recast <.< :D anyway

message 39: by Josiane (new)

Josiane Claremont I think that most all of the characters were pretty fine. JCB had to be so serious, because remember that in the beginning Jace was a cynic. If JCB chooses to produce a somber Jace to be cynical, I'm perfectly okay with that.


message 40: by Isabella (new)

Isabella (livbet) | 20 comments I don't think it was anything to do with him being sombre and cynical, Josiane - it was just his look. And no charisma.


message 41: by Josiane (last edited Oct 17, 2014 11:14AM) (new)

Josiane Claremont His charisma was definitely lacking, I'll agree with you on that, but I think his appearance...well, let's just say that I had no idea a guy could pull back his hair that far

As for the character itself, the only other issue I had with him was that he seemed a little too apathetic, until after the greenhouse scene when Simon catches him and Clary outside her room. Then, he's just full of rage, and I liked that.


message 42: by Naomi (new)

Naomi Speakman (missmorgenstern) | 1379 comments The greenhouse scene was my favourite. It was in the book too.


message 43: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments oh my God I love the books... Simon <3 my love

Itxamara | 779 comments oh my God I love the books... Simon <3 my love


message 45: by Jeannette (new)

Jeannette | 37 comments Will there be a CoA movie? I thought they canceled any plans of TMI movies because of the tv show

Yeah. I think that if he had just acted like himself, the movie character of Jace would have been better.
I wouldn't exactly blame Jace for the failure of the movie.
They didn't exactly " Show it off " Like they should have. They focused more on interviews which was a waste. Also it wasn't just Jace that was messed up.

Like Valentine was pretty bad casting xc BLACK HAIR??? WHAT is with those dread locks???? I thought a lot of things contributed to the fail of CoB


message 47: by Renee (new)

Renee I really liked Jamie as Jace and Jonathan as Valentine!
I didn't like Lily Collins as Clary that's all. And I LOOOVED Robbie as Simon!
I guess that if they had just dyed Jonathan's hair white (woah this is turning opposite of the books! XD) and Not had such forced lines (befcause some of them were really cheesy) then it would have been better. They did a great job of publicity, but maybe a bit more could have been done. and also, no offence to anyone but I didn't like Kevin Zegers as Alec. I don't think he did a very good job at all and same with Jemima for Isabelle...sorry but just. erh no.

BUT I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT THEY DO WITH THE TV SERIES!!! :D :D


message 48: by Itxamara (new)

Itxamara | 779 comments Omg I know! And there will not be a movie. It's going to be a TV show and they will start all over with city of bones
