Buffistas

Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good

Closed Threads

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Jean-Paul: Cillian Murphy? I think he's described as being nearly pretty, and CM has the coloring and charisma. OK, I find him a little creepy, but I think he could make that work for the role.

Jason: Oh, if only they could afford Ewan MacGregor for this. Bleach his hair a bit and hey, no worries about him balking at the nude scenes.

Nathaniel: Hmmmm. I'm out of touch with who the hot 18-22 year old fellas are. I mean, sure, Orlando would be fine but again with the whole budget thing.

Anita: No idea.

move out and draw fire

Milla Jovovich as Anita?

Otherwise I can only come up with people who shouldn't play Anita, like Carmen Electra, Natalie Portman, Dakota Fanning, or Keanu Reeves.

Actually, wait a minute, Keanu Reeves might be PERFECT!

Keanu was born to play Anita.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

BWAH!

I thought about Cillian Murphy, too. Hmm. I also thought Jonathan Rhys-Meyers...he's pretty.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Is Anita supposed to be partly Hispanic? For some reason I keep thinking that she is. If so, I'm picturing Girlfight girl who's on Lost now.

If I only had a brain...

Yes, Anita's Hispanic.

Book purchase news--I went to Borders last night and finally used the 10% off coupon and gift card that my boss gave me for Xmas. I got two Jasper Fforde books, the second Tuesday Next novel (I've had The Eyre Affair for years even though I have yet to read it) and The Big Over Easy, the first in the Jack Spratt Investigates series (according to the review I read in EW, it's a cross between Film Noir and nursery rhymes). Looking forward to reading them both!

You know, it occurred to me that, for all her writerly faults, LKH created a world that stuck with me. I was watching the weather channel this morning and they talked about St. Louis and the first thing that came to mind was the Anita Blake books.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I'm thinking of Eliza Dushku or Jessica Alba for Anita. Dark and attractive to the geekly audience, and both experienced with the ass-kicking.
