Coldplay - "Spies"

I challenge Little Mishelle to dislike this:



I can't remember whether she outrightly disliked or was just indifferent to Coldplay. But I don't think her capable of disliking the above song.

In case you haven't noticed, I've been in a bit of a Pride & Prejudice funk (good type) again. I was thinking about the different portrayals of Mr. Collins in the 2005 movie and Lost in Austen (har har... Oh, Lost in Austen. That's good shit).

In the movie, Mr. Collins was a short, kind of mousey, eccentric guy probably about 30 years old. In the miniseries, Mr. Collins was a tall, gangly, elderly "gent," possibly pushing 45-50.

In the movie, he was sort of a harmless but eccentric and annoying character. In the miniseries, he was outrightly a creeper (case in point: squeezing his testes and sniffing dem fingers). I found it hilarious that in the miniseries they made this excuse about how he couldn't sleep with Jane after they got married (in case you haven't watch it, the miniseries deviated from the book considerably) because of something-something-some-formality.

Why is this hilarious? Because Pristine Jane is not allowed to be deflowered and defiled by that monstrosity of a man. I'll be honest; I was extremely relieved (possibly because I was totes shipping Bingley and Jane at this point. More on this later).

Conversely, Movie Collins was a somewhat innocent guy. You could imagine him being completely nervous and fumbling around on The Wedding Night and, as such, much less intimidating.

I don't know if I had a real point to this post.

Also, I thought that Miniseries Bingley was too hot for Miniseries Jane but Movie Jane was too hot for Movie Bingley (even though he was really quite attractive... Miniseries Bingley was better).

I would post compare & contrast pictures but I'm in science library.
