Mr. Tilney and Figwit? What a choice!


Well this one looks like a lot of fun! I wonder if it will get wide release. So ladies, who would you choose...JJ Feild (Mr. Tilney from Northanger Abbey) or Bret McKenzie (Figwit from LOTR or Bret from Flight of the Conchords)????

Lets have a vote now!

I think I have to go with JJ! (sorry Bret)

Oh I love them both... but will probs have to go with Mr Tilney!

I'm so excited for this movie, just finished reading the book and they have assembled such a good cast. I really hope it gets a wide release!!

reply

Without a doubt J.J Fields! There's no question about it :)

I'll put in a vote for Bret. Although in the book, I ended up preferring the Nobley character and guessed early on that Martin was playing Jane.

reply

Tilney! He's my favorite Austen hero.



Walt Miller. Am I right?

reply

Although Bret is my second favorite Conchord, I'd definitely choose Bret in this instance.

reply

I choose polyamory so I can have both of them!!!!!!!

As much as I love Brett in Austenland (a real scene stealer), I will have to go with JJ (he was Mr. Tilney). I do love Mr. Nobley in the film.

JJ. Was superb!


It’s good to dream

They both were great in the movie and I honestly didn't know how she was gonna pick one over the other. I loved it. Very good movie.
