[The Mortal Instruments]

[(Anonymous)]

This movie was awful.

I went to watch it with a friend, because she's a fan of the books.

I had never read the books, so I had no damn clue what was going on. The plot was an incoherent mess, I couldn't care less about the characters.

It felt like watching a bad fanfiction. I was thinking "Oh, there's Draco. There's Harry. There's Ginny. There's Voldemort."

When the bad guy turned the ring upside down to reveal it was actually an 'M', I had to use all my willpower not to laugh out loud.

But I'll probably go see the midnight screening of the sequel, because what are friends for?

[(Anonymous)]

Omg I laughed so hard at that "reveal". I wish he could have just gone "NUH-UH!" and turned it back around. "SEE IT'S A W!"

I was basically in the same situation as you were. A friend who read the books took me to watch it with her. I knew it was a mess, but oh well, friendship.

We were 10 people in one room, and we snarked at the movie and had so much fun.

I kept thinking, "This is from Buffy. Hey, this is from the second episode of Buffy! (Sewer escape scene.) Hi there, stuffy older librarian dude in a big library!"

Is there even going to be a sequel? I heard it didn't do too well at the box office

[(Anonymous)]

DA

They have "delayed production" of the movie. AKA we are going to act like this mess never happened and hope it disappears.

[(Anonymous)]

It was Harry Potter fanfiction once, soooo...

[(Anonymous)]

The books are pretty awful too, tbh. I had little hope the movie would be any better.

[darkmanifest]

I liked the books, too, so I didn't want this movie to be awful...at least, no more awful than Twilight. But the more I hear about how it turned out, the more I'm like, siiiiigh.

[meishuu]

To be frank, I enjoyed the movie more than the book. I loathe that book.

Don't get me wrong, it certainly wasn't a good movie (and I found myself cringing at the cheesy,ridiculous lines) but the characters were less, much less annoying that in the book.

[(Anonymous)]

I hate the author/like the book too. Granted, it's like as in "this is terrible why is this so fun to read" like, but still.

[(Anonymous)]

Yes, this. The Alec was just terrible and wooden, there wasn't enough Magnus (for my taste), Jace was strangely ugo (even though I've seen him in other things and he was attractive there), Isabelle was about 30, Clary's eyebrows (seriously, wtf?, Valentine was so far off base (but his hotness did a lot to make up for it), and on and on and on.

So much wrong with this movie, but I've already accepted the fact that I'm going to see the sequel when it comes out. *shrugs*

that eyebrows were fine

[(Anonymous)]

I like Clary's eyebrows!

[(Anonymous)]

If something is fun, it's fun - you don't need to justify it. Everyone has their guilty pleasures :)

That's why they're called GUILTY pleasures...

[nyxelestia]

I mean, personally, I think Mortal Instruments wasn't great literature by any means, but that doesn't mean I didn't have some fun reading it. (Granted, I was about 14-15 at the time of reading it.)

I'm pretty sure that as long as I never read it again, it will remain a fond memory.
