Yep, it's like in TV series how they sometimes replace the kids over and over so that they're permanently the same age. When they do this, people tend to stop watching because the characters are just too different, and it's just "not the same show anymore".

Oh yeah, for sure. When I first saw "Grease" when I was ten years old, I had absolutely no idea how old the actors really were. They played the part of teenagers so well, it didn't matter that some of them had grey hair and crow's feet (lol!). I myself am 21 and recently auditioned for the part of a 17 year old in a film project. I still look 17. I still look 15! And just look at the woman who they've got playing Myrtle.

Erm, in short, ITA with you. ;)

Yeah. They seem to have a lot of fun now, but in a couple of years other things will become more important to them, like education and career choices, etc. I'll forgive Emma for leaving the films if she decides to commit her life to becoming a doctor of applied chemistry or something. :)

Eh. Why do you have to be 13 to have a crush on him? I have no problem admitting that I do! Heck, when I was 17 I had a crush on Flik from A Bug's Life. (Okay, stop laughing!!).

(who is sorry if she offended anyone earlier about wanting to stop the "eye colour" conversation, but it seemed to be just going around in circles and getting a tad repetitive and boring. Sorry again.)
