Ann, that's a ferret.

Calli, I can see Jackman. Harrison Ford could have in his prime (think Indiana Jones), but he's proabably too old now.

But it's hard to say, because Flynn had a certain spirit that seems to be missing from today's Hollywood. A sense of joy, maybe -- or at least of enjoyment.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I have not seen him in anything that I remember or know of.)

He was Charlotte's impotent husband on Sex and the City.

Also, just for the record, it was Jude Law being proposed for Cary, not Leo. Now that Jude looks any more like him.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I just now he photographs nice.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

I was going to say -- Jude Law is way too young to play Cary Grant right now. Isn't he? For some reason Cary Grant is permanently 45 in my mind. Also, a big block of a man.

Whereas, playing Errol Flynn -- I guess I need to see the guy move, to know. I can't think of many movies I've seen where the point of Jude Law was anything other than his face.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Ah, there it is then. I didn't watch Sex and the City.

Twin Peaks, Aimee, or Showgirls, or Blue Velvet? He was in all of those.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Haven't you seen Dune, Aimee? Isn't it part of your wedding contract?

Oh, right. And his other big role was on Twin Peaks. Which you also may not have seen.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Kyle was also the FBI agent in Twin Peaks. I think he was also in Blue Velvet and the '84 Dune. Lynch seems to like working with him. Here's his imdb listing.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

No Twin Peaks, have blocked Showgirls, no Blue Velvet.

And we negotiated seeing Dune (or any of the follow-ups or remakes) out of the wedding contract as I countered with "Must watch Annie AND SING at least once a year."
