As much as I Hate the book/movie and wish people not go see it, that's bound to happen (probably one of the reasons why they chose to cast Dan and plaster his face all over the promotion of this- so his fans would all go see it *eyeroll* althought at least the big R rating will stop the large teen crowd from adding numbers to the viewageship [yes I know I'm being terribly petty- I just hate this book/movie that much)
But spoiling people would not only be a Mean thing to do (I'm angry at the author & the book/movie Not Dan or the people who read/see this, so taking out on them would be bad), it would get people upset at me and I don't want that.
I mean on top of me dumping a rant on here (which I hope you forgive me for)
yes, I don't think a book before this one has upset/mess me up this much in.... ever. But at least, regardless of the author's credentials, this book/movie is sort of fad-y so it's not like it's going to go up in history as amazing piece of literature/cinema. people are probably going to forget about it soon.
(not like any of the author's father stuff, and Harry Potter/any of Dan's future projects is going to forever overshadow this so...)
and hey, at least now I have someone who I know that I can ask wether or not the awful awful stuff that upset me stayed in the movie, without actually seeing the darn thing. so there's that.
okay I'll stop now I promise. I don't want to sound bratty.
if anything, thanks for being open and understanding to let me talk about this.
