Don't worry about the long comment. I leave long comments on everyone's blogs! :} <br /><br />I read your post and really enjoyed it. I even commented, and I'd love to figure out how to grab your "Team Raoul" button. As I mentioned in the comment on your post, I'm not sure how to grab blog buttons when they don't have the code underneath them. Can you help? Thanks for commenting again, and for following, too! :)Hannah Prewett (beastsbelle)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15635091328769986946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646962372158228871.post-53812425154455803052011-02-20T07:48:26.136-08:002011-02-20T07:48:26.136-08:00Hi Hana-Marmota...thanks for commenting!

And I agree...I agree - Raoul needs a haircut. lol.<br />And I agree with you about the Phantom and why Christine was drawn to him, although I haven't seen the play. I've read the book though, and that's what I got from the book.<br /><br />I definitely will not be watching the movie again for many reason, but mainly because of the Phantom's character. He was not like that in the book, and I was quite shocked when I watched the movie. Raoul was the only good thing in it, really, which is rather funny because I didn't like him in the book:)<br /><br />I actually wrote a post about the Phantom vs. Raoul on my blog a few days ago. You can read it here if you'd like to:)<br />http://daybyday.plexpedia.com/view-9662<br /><br />I think it's good to analyze the characters in the books we read and the movies we watch. Let's face it, we women are emotional, so it's good to think it through and put everything in perspective through God's Word. I live the story when I read, too, so I know exactly what you're saying:)<br />Sorry for the long comment;)<br /><br />~Tasha~Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05803389006953062232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646962372158228871.post-34544048701072988872011-02-19T17:46:48.292-08:002011-02-19T17:46:48.292-08:00Hi Tasha!! Thanks for commenting. I'm glad to...Hi Tasha!! Thanks for commenting. I'm glad to find another Raoul fan!! I loved Patrick Wilson's Raoul in the movie. I kept hearing comments about him being boring or wimpy, but I didn't think he was that way at all (although I wouldn't have minded if he'd had a haircut, personally). And because I was so disappointed at Gerard Butler's less than satisfactory singing pipes and over-sensual acting, it made Raoul stand out to me even more. <br /><br />Okay, I totally have to go off on a tangent here. When I saw the play, to me what attracted Christene to the Phantom was his beautiful singing voice. With a voice like that, how could you not think there might be some goodness to him? When Gerard sang, he sounded angry and lustful. Not attractive at all, at least to me. <br /><br />Why must we always go after the dangerous when we have the option of the caring, safe love of someone who puts our needs first? That's why we have so many broken homes and abusive marriages today, in my humble opinion. Quite honestly, that's why I have a hard time with the Twilight books. I know they're just stories, but I think it's easy for us as women to get swept up into the stories we read and then look for someone like the character we fell in love with in real life. We need to be sure we're evaluating the character of our...characters. :} <br /><br />Maybe I'm over-thinking this. Then again, when I read a story, I live it. I become the character and experience the story with them. So I have to be really cautious that I evaluate the feelings and emotions that the story makes me feel, and evaluate them in light of the truths of God's Word. Only then can I be balanced in my perspective.<br /><br />Wow, that was a really long comment. But I had to get it off my chest. And at least it's on my own blog, so the blog author won't get annoyed. :)Hannah Prewett (beastsbelle)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15635091328769986946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646962372158228871.post-67877008166842357932011-02-19T13:41:55.703-08:002011-02-19T13:41:55.703-08:00I loved reading your answers to the questions!
Fi...I loved reading your answers to the questions!<br /><br />Finally, someone else who appreciates Raoul!! He was a bit silly in the book, but I did like him in the 2005 movie.<br /><br />Chauvelin is an excellent pick for most dastardly villain!=) He is quite creepy.<br /><br />~Tasha~Tashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05803389006953062232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7646962372158228871.post-77367831759004750362011-02-19T11:35:19.660-08:002011-02-19T11:35:19.660-08:00Hi Kellie!

Lovely.<br />Yes, I am planning on creating some Jane Austen heroine button/mirror designs, and The scripture verse is actually one I had on my design list, as well! Excellent taste! =)<br /><br />Blessings,<br />~Kellie~Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05173990163000504566noreply@blogger.com
