Blog Week 5

Hello, the worst character I have read this year is 'Ned Wallis' from the book "One-Eyed Cat" (Don't read it, its terrible!)  His charactor had no 'soul,' many good books make their character life-like and with good thoughts, but this book, ugh, all he does during the story is brood and feel bad over shooting a cat, and this gets old after the first, oh, say... 30 pages, not to mention the 150+ that remain!!!  He is an example of how NOT to make a character.  How did this book ever win a Newberry Honor Medal, did the reviewers even read it?!!

And just the opposite, was 'Eragon' from the book "Eragon."  He is exactly the opposite of Ned Wallis.  His character is pronounced and it makes you feel like you have known him for a while, compared to more brooding.  This is also one of the BEST characters in a fantasy book, due to the level of detail in the character.

That's all,

Since my Conspiracy Books are terrible for this assignment, I instead will be doing "1984" by George Orwell.

Winston Smith, played by Daniel Craig.  Why? His gruff voice is perfect for this part and he has a slight British Accent, and this book takes place in London.

Julia, played by Catherine Zeta-Jones.  Why? It seemed like a good actor choice. 

Big Brother, only in pictures, picture of Adolf Hitler. Why?  He looks right for the poster boy of the evil, all-knowing, totalitarian Party.

O'Brien, played by Liam Neeson. Why? His voice seems like how I believe this character talks and looks.

Emmanuel Goldstein, again, another picture, so for this one I will get a picture of Josh Broline. Why? I just Googled 'gruff actors' and found this guy.

Thats all.  Oh, do you like the Video?
