I'm making an uncompensated career out of quoting directly from the book. Which, really, the articles covering it really should, to just forestall shit.
No, he's not forty something. No it's not possible that his eyes are blue...
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
Alex Pettyfer is number one on my list. Garrett Hedlund number two.
Armie Hammer is way too beefy. if Hunnam(he is!) is too old, Justin Hartley(he so is!) is way too old. Kitsch is only a year younger than Hunnam(and starting to look his age IMO).
of that list, only two are age appropriate Zylka and ZEfron and neither are Finnick for me. though i do love me some ZEfron.

I don't feel the actors have to be the characters' ages, they just have to look them. And I haven't seen the pics of Kitsch that you have. Maybe his box office results have taken years off his life. I think Pettyfer looks older than Kitsch right now.

I gotta say, my first reaction is: Ian McShane? SERIOUSLY? WOW.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
I've felt that way about him, mostly.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Huh. That there is a very nice roster of awesome British character actors. In between this and The Hobbit, playing dwarves is in this year, I guess.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Damn, FILM CRIT HULK is in The New Yorker! Writing about Ruffalo's Hulk, no less (with a fairly substantial digression into Bixby's Banner).

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Pondering why the sound of the siren from Prometheus gives me serious heebie-jeebies.

My brother was never into comics. Friends in high school were, and I've been reading them for about 20 years, off and on, but my entry points were Vertigo and the old Warren Ellis Forum. The first time I got an ongoing superhero title was during Morrison's Batman run 2 years ago. There are a few other things like Immortal Iron Fist that I got in TPBs, but I'd guess that maybe 5% of my comics are superhero books.
So I'm all about Nolan's Batman, but the last Marvel movie I saw in a theater was Spider-Man.

My flippant answer is that it was probably specifically created to trigger that reaction, because I know you're not the only person to have that creep-out reaction to it. Every time I see the trailer, I can feel my muscles tensing up when the siren noise becomes audible.
