I just finished reading the book Dear John, another classic novel by Nicholas Sparks. It was everything a romantic book should be, a humble and sensible young college girl meets and falls in love with a rebellious, tattooed soldier. It has earned the spot as my favourite book of the month, I just started reading The Choice(yes, another Sparks book) so that might soon change. Dear John, like all of Spark's books, had me heartbroken by the end. It probably sounds weird but when I finish a book I always miss the characters afterward. When reading a book I kind of feel like I am part of the characters journey in a way. It's not as weird as it sounds!!
Last week I got a phone call from Becca telling me that they will be making a movie based on Dear John!! After the disaster that was Nights In Rodanthe I was hoping the film wouldn't ruin it for me. Then I heard who is to play John and Savannah (the two main characters) Channing Tatum and Amanda Seyfried!!!! Ok granted Channing is a babe and all but no no NO!!!! He just isn't right for the part. When I was reading the book I always pictured James Marsden as John.I am SO disappointed, and as for Amanda Seyfried, I'm sorry but she just doesn't fit into the humble, innocent category.PLUS she has blonde hair..(Savannah is a burnette) ok, they could dye her hair but I can't picture Amanda Seyfield with brown hair. The movie isn't even made and I'm angry already.
