that fan-made trailers are so much better than the real ones? For example, say you went to see Thor, and this was the first trailer:



But who would you cast as Louis Wu and Teela Brown? Who would you get to voice Speaker to Animals and Nessus? For Halrloprillalar, I'd want someone trained in dance. She has to be both human and very alien.

Okay. I still don't get the connection, but I'll take your word for it, since I figure this is one of those things that's perfectly straightforward to most people but not to me due to my personal peculiarities, and it would be more trouble than it was worth (for both of us) for you to try to explain. It happens. Just ask [livejournal.com profile] kengr. I was essentially absent from the world, mentally, for most of my childhood; things that make perfect sense to others can baffle me, while other things make perfect sense to me but baffle others.
