'OBSIDIAN' YA SAGA
TO GET MOVIE ADAPTATION
In the news about new book adaptations, Sierra Pictures will turn
Jennifer L. Armentrout's YA novel OBSIDIAN into a movie! The first of
the five book LUX series, it follows bookish Katy Swartz who moves with
her mother to West Virginia, resigning herself to thick accents and a
boring life. She is hopeful after meeting her neighbours who are a shot
of life, and the brother and sister tandem becomes even more interesting
when it turns out they are aliens. When she falls for the brother and
he touches her, it marks her as a homing device for an army of
extraterrestrial bad guys.

Good trailer, great cover of Paint it Black but Tobey McGuire is in it and I can't forgive him for the whining in LOTR!
ReplyDeleteit is such a wonderfully cut trailer, isnt it? But that ain't Tobey but Elijah Wood :) They're identical twins :)
DeleteWe do like Kate Winslet. Is she ever anything but stunning? Obsidian could be good.
ReplyDeleteLUX saga has each book named after another gem, OBSIDIAN, ONYX, OPAL....
DeleteI'm a witch. Can Vin Diesel come hunt me? I'll even be a good witch and let him catch me and spank me.
ReplyDeletemessage sent to Vin! With your address....
DeleteAwesome! You are the best Dezzy.
DeleteI know :)
DeleteKate looks great. I'm glad to see she's in the Steve Jobs movie, which I WILL see. I so rarely get to the movies these days...or even catch things when they come to video!
ReplyDeleteI hear there's a strong buzz around her role in that one... she might even get an Oscar nod they say....
DeleteLove Kate! Can't wait!
ReplyDeletewe positively adore her
DeleteI may go see The Last Witch Hunter. Then again...I may not. It just looks so cheesy...
ReplyDeletefully agreed
DeleteVery sexy pic of our Kate darling. The movie sounds fabulous and as I know nothing of the story it will be fun to learn it.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to congratulate you on finishing your translations in my last comment. Also I'm glad to hear that you have enough work ahead to keep you busy. Maybe you can pamper yourself with a nice Winter sweater.
Doesn't she have the cutest of bums? :)
DeleteNo, shopping for me, dahlink, we've started with the heating and those bills give me headaches... one full salary goes to just pay the heating bills and electricity
The cost of heat is going up around the globe for years now. They're all monopolies so we've no choice but to pay their high prices. Here it is not unusual to have a gas heating bill that is $700.00 per month.
DeleteWe're going out tomorrow to buy an infrared heater. They are supposed to be good and use little electricity to run. If it doesn't work like they say, it's getting returned and I'm getting my money back.
Ours is often around 200 euro per month and most salaries and pensions barely reach more than that. And that is just heating.
DeleteI told you, dahlink, you need to buy some heater like that, especially since you and hubby are alone in the house. It might be much cheaper than heating the whole house with central heating. I haven an electrical heater in my bathroom because I don't have a radiator there. And most people in my country also use those accumulative electric heaters which accumulate power over night or during cheap electricity hours and then heat away over the day.
oooh, and most people here have little infrared quartz heaters to heat up rooms when other heating isn't well enough
DeleteAnother interesting mix.
ReplyDeletewe sure know how to mix it!
DeleteKate is everywhere lately. I love it! She's my fave!
ReplyDeleteI love it how she and Blanchett are having their moment right now.
DeleteThe movie will end when he finds Sarah Palin
ReplyDeleteor Hilary Clinton she's the mother queen of all witch/bitches....
DeleteGive Kate a burger...
ReplyDeleteAnd give Vin to me... ;)
I got so distracted by Vinny that I forgot to mention the trailer looked awesome. Just sayn...
Deleteit is probably the best trailer they've released for the movie, goes so well with the song
DeleteI love me some Kate Winslet. She's beautiful and talented!!!
ReplyDeleteshe's the queen
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautifully lit photo of Kate Winslet.
ReplyDeletenice curves, right?
DeleteLooking forward to the Last Witch Hunter.
ReplyDeletea lil' bit of witch fun before the Hallow's Eve
DeleteYou got me excited when I saw "Obsidian". I thought it was the Dragon Weather series. So sad now.
ReplyDeletenope, this is something entirely girlish :)
DeleteWhat's wrong with me? I can't stand Kate W. She seems arrogant and omnipresent. Why does she keep getting married? Obviously it doesn't work for her...
ReplyDeleteSorry. Venting.
He he he .... if I remember correctly some of the husbands cheated on her? But I'm not sure... it is sometimes so tangled... who is with whom and who was with whom :) She is not arrogant, she is just British LOL
DeleteThere are still too many witches for him to be the last witch hunter....
ReplyDeleteyou didn't compliment on Kate's bum and tits and now I won't post any naked ladies for next two month! Go and sit in the corner!
DeleteI was distracted by her awful hair and makeup.
Deleteshe has been doing some weird things with her eyebrows lately.... they're black and her hair is blond... do you reckon her..... is also black?
DeleteShaved. 100%. I have intel.
Deletesuch exquisite delight
