Foolish Slayer

It turns out Sarah Michelle Gellar- Buffy- turned down the literal Star role in Stardust (went to Claire Danes). Tsk! She and Freddie have an agreement not to let work separate them, and it was apparently Freddie's turn. Still... Gahhh!!! Headdesk. No, really, sensible brain gets it. Don't turn into one of those Hollywood couples that sees each other only once every few moths, then divorces because you never really see each other and end up in a torrid romance with Angelina Jolie (Sarah + Angie, sitting in a tree... please feed Ang a few dozen cheeseburgers and chocolate frappes, plz). But fan brain is saying Sarah can act soooo much better than Claire, are you kidding?! Mind you, still haven't seen Stardust. Very soon, just not yet. Claire hopefully is good enough. It's just... I want to see a movie made with Sarah that isn't a horror story. Ms. kills-the-monster turns into the thing she was supposed to not be. It makes me irritated that she's thrown away her wesome role model image embraced the yucky and by doing so thumbed her nose at everything Joss did for her and for that matter the rest of the world. /fangirl shuts up...  Fangirl realizes that this role wouldn't necessarily be a whole lot different since the Star isn't what we'd call an ass kicker. But Gaiman!!! Sheeeeeeeesh.
