I haaated R/T too.  So so much.   :P

I like the idea of Tobias being gay in a more mature version...something to further ostracize him from everyone...

honestly, i always pictured them older than 13.
tobias would have possibly turned to drugs of some sort, too.

Tobias being gay would be stupid.  Totally ignoring the books didn't really work for the TV show, I don't know why we would want them to do it again.

No, they didn't.  What I mean is they didn't follow the books and the show sucked.  Making Tobias gay in the movie would have the same effect.

i think that if the series were geared more towards a mature audience there would have been a lot more death. I feel like halfway through the series Rachel would have died and had to have been replaced by somebody (possibly even melissa) then another little while later probably marco would die (saving his mother) and be replaced by yet another person (possibly the newly freed tom even)

That's really interesting.  *ponders*

Tobias as gay? Oh man, no way. The drugs thing is plausible though. And I too always considered them to be 14+ from the start. Jake's maturity at that age seemed out of place..

I think Cassie and Jake probably would've been more serious about their relationship.

Hopefully more open. Relationships can be interesting without drama.

I'd also expect them to make more plans, as well as be less headstrong as to the moral qualms. The entire rush-in attitude, acquiring morphs as they go would be more adverted, and I'd think they would go on to the offensive sooner.

As far as drugs... I don't see that happening, even if they were older/mature. Too goal oriented. Maybe try something after something really stressful, but I don't see it lasting. If something goes down and they get caught up while high, or even drunk... not too good. I especially don't see Jake doing anything, but Marco might try smoking normal cigarettes.

Mature love is more likely, and as far as violence, I don't see much in the way of more, just better described/more detailed. Such things as when Erek reprogrammed himself and went on a rampage would be described instead of calmly ignored.

I don't think Tobias is gay. It was never mentioned in the books; not even hinted on. I don't know where that thought keeps coming from.
