Uwa! nino! this sounds very promising! I hear the manga is quite violent/gory and there's lots of nudity and sexual situations, so now I'm sort of divided because on the one hand it would be good if they make it for general audiences since it would mean more exposure for our boy and the movies might reach more people and become famous, but on the other hand... if they water down a manga that's supposed to be "edgy" to put it mildly... fans are gonna be pissed... and that's never good for manga-to-movie adaptations...
Meanwhile, if they do make the movies following the tone the manga has then, it would be very interesting to see nino in such a role.

"My Darling is a Foreigner" to be filmed at Presbyterian Church, Mindowaskin and at E. Dudley house.

The Town Council will be approving a film permit from High Field Entertainment to shoot a Japanese language romantic comedy in town on Oct. 1 and 2.

The film, which is shooting half of its four-day U.S. schedule in Westfield, will be shot on the lawn of the Presbyterian Church, in Mindowaskin Park and at the Rudlow residence at the intersection of E. Dudley Avenue and Lawrence Avenue. The filming will likely include some minor disruption to the sidewalk in front of the church and to the area surrounding the house...

If you live there, or near, please share whatever pics you take, pretty please? XD XD

A little news about mao-chan's Boku no Hatsukoi wo Kimi ni Sasagu movie that will come out in the fall.

Good things come from stalking Dramabean's Blog!

A producer confirmed that rights have been acquired to adapt the novel into a movie... Since this will be the third version of this story to be told, the rep said that “the movie will show a different story from the drama.”

After the script is completed in May, the production will begin casting for its characters of Go Eun-chan, Choi Han-gyul, and the rest... The production’s plan is to begin filming in October, and aim for a February 2010 release, with simultaneous premieres in Korea, Japan, China, and Southeast Asia.

First reaction: AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (joy)

A few seconds later: wait a minute...

Then: oh oh oh... this could go wrong...

No original cast (YEH has said no, Gong Yoo won't make it for military reasons, Lee Eon: Rest in Peace T_T).

They want to make a different product from the k-drama, that could turn out to be good, or bad, depends. What about the soundtrack? CP was a heaven for indie music... if they don't deliver on that account... it could turn ugly. Oh God, now I'm getting worried. Still, if the movie turns out to be bad, or average, or good but not great, we still have the novel and the k-drama, don't we? nothing's gonna change that ♥

Anyway, we know the story is gold, so whoever re-does it has some pretty big shoes to fill, expectations to meet, they have to make it shine, otherwise everyone is gonna laugh in their faces.

I'm beginning to see this as that, they have to make their own CP, new, fresh, awesome, comparisons WILL be inevitable, so only a product with the same, or higher, worth value will be accepted.

Now, casting... god... I can't even begin to think about that... YEH and my Yu were so amazing... who can do it equally good (or better)? and what about the princes?

Please God: let it be good.

In the book, at the end, eun chan asks han kyul if he would be more confortable with her beign more feminine (she didn't have the make-over/years-of-growing-up/becoming-a-woman k-drama eun chan had), han kyul said he definitely did not want her to change...
I hope they leave that in the movie, it's an interesting combo, because when han kyul says that he's, at the same time, saying she's wonderful as she is, he loves her no matter what, he's confortable with her looking like a cute guy, doesn't mind what people and still-strick korean society think... but it also makes me wonder... is he actually bi? would he consider that possibility? does it even matter? XD

I saw it...

 

Oh the LULZ!

The movie is better than the book. Maybe cause we didn't get to be immersed inside bella's teen-angst mind so much, maybe cause they tried to give the actual plot some presence since the beginning...

Moments, at the top of my head, that had LULZ written all over them:

• When bella walks in Biology for the first time and wardo gets a whiff of her scent.
• The sparkles! (this is the skin of a killer!)
• The morning after, wardo walks with bella to school with that smug "we totally did it" look all over him, even though they totally didn't.
• The cullens cooking italian food watching nick stellino's "cucina amore" thinking bella's gonna like that cause they assume she's "italian".
• Bella using pepper spray on james... OMG!
  
• Wardo and Charlie waiting for bella to come out for prom, and the following "I'll take care of her - I've heard that before" combo.
• Jacob pouncing on bella at the prom... and wardo pulling his "back off buddy" vibe.
• Watching jasper's "pained" expression in every one of the, what, 5 scenes he's in? without saying anything I might add.

Oh god, the whole movie is filled with lulz. It's great.
I can see why people are going more than once to see it.
And James and co. kick ass.

On casting comments: It was fun watching Peter Facinelli as Carlisle. And when Mike came on screen I remembered the actor, he played Joan's brother in the TV show Joan of Arcadia (show that I liked a lot).
