Okay, so fans always complain about the casting when their favorite book gets made into a movie.

But the Twitter quotes in this article are an order of magnitude beyond regular, disgruntled fannish griping. They're AWFUL. And they're a really specific kind of awful.

Cut for racist language and mind-boggling stupid (also contains Hunger Games spoilers, though one of these things is >>> the other) )
sholio: Peter and Elizabeth from White Collar (WhiteCollar-Peter El hug)
As something of an antidote to my last post - Baby owls in coffee cups. You're welcome.

I have an idea for my sexual-extortion h/c bingo story! The problem is ... it's an epic-length sci-fi AU, in which Adler is the most powerful man in a futuristic metropolis, and he blackmails Elizabeth into marrying him by having Peter thrown into a sort of debt-slavery involving personality-controlling implants. Then jewel thief Neal (who's part of a team of thieves that also includes Kate, Mozzie and Keller) breaks into the mile-high, high-tech tower where Adler is keeping Elizabeth, intending to rob it, but instead she asks Neal and his crew to help free her and Peter.

... I'm at 80K words on an original novel right now; I do not need a novel-length AU plotbunny eating my brain! Help!
