107. I only read P&P fanfiction that's based on the book - not that it matters much since the BBC series was quite faithful - but yes, that movie was awful and in some aspects not much better than fanfic. That post-coital scene by the lake? Jane Austen must have been rolling in her grave. "They never had sex in my book!"

130. Could it be because he has the face of a Botticelli angel? (http://www.crosswater-systems.com/images/picture_botticelli_primavera.jpg) That's my reason, anyway, and your secret amuses me a lot because I basically said as much when I picked up KHR. I always have the specific Dino picture and the related Botticelli print on hand in case someone doesn't believe me.

149. You think Javier Bardem is hotter because he's Spanish, and Europe makes everything better.

168. Wow, girl!Soul and girl!Kid are really, really moe there. And genderbending can be done well, it's just kind of unfortunate that it tends to attract lots of bad fanfic writers.

They... they what? I don't suppose there's any hope you're talking about Lydia and Wickham and not Elizabeth and Darcy? Or at least that it was at the very, very end, after they're married?

I've stayed as far away from that movie as humanly possible, so this is seriously my first time hearing this. DDDD;

It's the last scene with Lizzie and Mr. Darcy, though I'm admittedly exaggerating and no doubt inviting hordes of movie fans (are there even that many?) to come at me with their protests of, "You couldn't really tell if they had sex!" But jokes aside, that was sincerely the very least thing that went wrong with the movie. The most egregious would be the choice of casting KK as Elizabeth. No love.

Okay, that's a relief. In that case, I can safely put it back in the "Things I Simply Have No Interest In Whatsoever" file. *stows away the "Abominations" file*

I actually prefer the film in comparison to the BBC series. Yeah, the scene at the end was a bit naff, but it was right at the very end and very brief, and the rest of it seems pretty faithful. Also, as much as I can't stand Keira Knightly normally, I think she pulls it off.

It's actually one of the only romance films I own, because I'm far too much of a bitch to like romance movies.

No way XD Hmmm, I don't think I've ever said anything positive about the movie in the last three years, unless, "It's rather pretty..." can be said to count. My problem with it, beside the Knightley thing, was that they trimmed the plot down to size (understandable) by cutting out all the wrong things, so that the film seemed to miss the main point entirely and the Darcy character was reduced to a grumpy guy who was more misunderstood than flawed by pride.

Lizzie Bennet is one of my favorite characters ever written in literature, and I can't help but feel that KK's portrayal doesn't line up with the idea I have in my head. Knightley's characters always seem kind of prickly and shrill (which works for the other Elizabeth she played), and she didn't seem nearly smart, kind-spirited or archly humorous enough for this role. Well, to me, anyway.
