You guys know fancasting exists because the fancasted actors/whatever’s “acting” is in my head only right? It’s not even a matter of acting, it’s a matter of looks and similarity to the description in the books. It really has nothing to do with the series inspired by the books.
#I’m just saying this cause I’ve read some notes under the fancast gif set of Theon#and there were people that went like#who’s this bad imitation of Alfie Allen#or#why do you need a fancast if the actor already did an amazing job?#okay first of all YES Alfie Allen was amazing like seriously#he’s so amazing he managed to bring his own justice to a character in spite of d&d’s bad writing#and yes I do get that maybe if you watched the show first (but even if you didn’t it doesn’t change a thing) you still see him as Theon#cause that’s fine too I mean that is YOUR imagination while reading the book or fics#but if while I’m reading I see a character described as dark and therefore I fancast someone who LOOKS and only LOOKS#like the actual book description it doesn’t mean I’m saying the actor who played it is a bad actor especially if that actor is ALFIE ALLEN#I do admit I hate Kit as Jon cause imo not only he didn’t look like Jon but he didn’t even understand how Jon was like#blame it on the bad writing or whatever I just don’t see him as Jon#while Alfie DID understand Theon#but if while I’m reading I tend and WANT TO imagine the characters as they’re described I CAN#cause the BOOK and the SHOW are two whole different things.#I ADORE Alfie he was the best actor in the series but he’s not my Theon fancast (he used to be but now not anymore)#cause he doesn’t LOOK like Theon but yes I get it he IS Theon#but since I’m no producer and I don’t work in movies or tv series and it’s my imagination only I’m talking about#let me imagine Theon to be how the fuck I like.
