Update: We forgot the most important part of the video and for this we apologize, check out #7 and please forgive us. It won’t happen again
Yesterday Bekah sent the following text to Nikki:
Because this video came out (watch it on Entertainment Weekly if this YouTube video gets removed)
And then we broke it down, vanity fair style because VIBRATIONS. and The MAN
Nikki: So clearly we should start this with a big ALOHA
Bekah: haha yes.. what was that?
Nikki: Probably from her Descendents shoot? Which is so oddly compelling yet sad I watch it anytime it’s on tv.
Bekah: well ALOHA to you, Theo James.
Can we break down the top 10 things we thought about this short vid? If we can come up with them (I can: Theo, Theo, Four,Tattoo, Voice, Hot, running, muscles, black tshirt, Theo)
1. The tip of the Tattoo peeking out from beneath Theo’s shirt
Bekah: I will DIE when his back tattoo is revealed. For real. I keep saying it but I am FOR SERIOUS
Nikki: it was hot enough peeking out of his shirt I can’t even imagine seeing the WHOLE PACKAGE (ahem) at this point. Someone get me the smelling salts.
Bekah: I’ll be honest it kinda looks a little bit like he’s dirty.. dirty neck.. but.. we know better. WE KNOW. Gah.. is there like a big back reveal in the book? A scene where she stares at him from behind, checking out his tattoo.. and then he slowly turns… showing his rock hard abs? Is that just in my mind? Because IT BETTER BE IN THE MOVIE.
Nikki: Yes, that’s right between her getting shot and him teaching their initiate group about bravery. I’m pretty sure.
2. The way Theo says Shailene
Bekah: Ugh… his voice. What is it .. when he says Shailene I think he suddenly switches to British… and it’s like Mid-American-Sorta-British Accent. And it’s adorable. And sexy. His voice……
Bekah: I seriously watched the part where he said “She hates anything that is made by the man” 10,000 times. And made you this present:
3. Shailene’s eating habits
Nikki: I hope as part of the press for Divergent they have Shailene give some sort of organic cooking/healthy living demo. It should be called “Cooking with Gaia!” and it’s her in an open field in Humbolt, California cooking with hemp and making black bean hummus wraps for her hippie friends.
Bekah: I’d go. I mean, If Theo was there. Obviously
Nikki: Theo sounds a bit skeptical of it all and that makes me love him even more, she just sounds like a crazy hippie 20 year old or however old she is.
Bekah: I agree.. he sounds fairly sarcastic…And She’s 21. Believe me. I checked, hoping she wasn’t old enough so we wouldn’t have a ROBSTEN 2.0 on our hands. That bring us to #4…
4. What is the chance this is ROBSTEN 2.0?
Bekah: I hope 0 chance. Thoughts?
Nikki: I’m gonna go out on a limb and say NO, not at all though we really haven’t seen much of them together beyond this. They just don’t give off that vibe. Now if we see a video from MTV of Shailene picking crap off Theo’s lips DURING an interview THEN we can begin to ponder it. It seems very big brother/little sister, pals kind of off screen relationship to me. What would their celebrity couple name be though… just for kicks?!
Bekah: James Wood?
Nikki: Sheo?! Like Captain EO? Thailene?
Bekah: Thailene Yes. I like it.
Nikki: Agreed! Sounds like a black market diet pill! I like it!
Bekah: Something “The Man” would make.
5. Okay What Shailene Said about THEO and his MANNESS
Bekah: I need to listen to it again because I think even SHE was starting to sweat about how all MAN Theo is.
Nikki: I think that was a PERFECT way to describe it, he’s VERY manly and most of the other cast members don’t have that vibe minus Jai Courtney (woah). But it’s totally true Four needed to be manly but I think that’s also the problem with people thinking Theo looks older than 18 but that’s because he looks like a MAAAAN, baby!
Bekah: She calls it “Plain old testosterone factor” which to be honest… I don’t get the vibe AS MUCH from the books. I think he’s strong and capable and a leader, but I wouldn’t say like RAWWWRRR testosterone, which is what I think about how Theo will play Four. And I LOVE. Cannot wait.
6. All this other Stuff
Nikki: So let’s count all the stuff we get to see: El Train, The Pit, At :55 does he trip into those crew guys?! hahaha Muscles, Back Tattoo,
Bekah: Shailene looking TALL. Is she really tall? I was picturing hing short & petite. She is not. Actually she seems like a strong, girl… that’s nice..
Nikki: She’s pretty average, like 5’6?? Slim but not teeny tiny. Zoe Kravitz might as well be one of Santa’s Helpers, THAT girl is smaller. Smaller than KStew.
Nikki: We get a full shot of Tris’s collarbone tattoo!
Nikki: I like that they’ve kept the make up and hair pretty simple, it’s not like she has a full on blow out with curled hair, Bella-style.
[strikethrough]Okay so that was only 6 things because then we spent the night snapchatting each other reaction faces #thatsnormal[/strikethrough]7. The Pure Sex Look
Kim in the comments pointed out that we failed to talk about the “Pure Sex Look” Theo gives Shailene. Oops. Maybe this will make it up to you:
IS IT MARCH 2014 YET?
PS: Entertainment Weekly has new Divergent pictures!
