Anyone else here see "The Long Way Round"? Ewan McGregor and his actor friend Charley...something take motorbikes around the world. Mom kind of rolled her eyes at me for being fangirly at first, but she got interested in it...there are, like, no roads in Mongolia.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
This isn't the same article but it's another good one about Nikki Blonsky

I heard a review of La Vie En Rose this morning that basically said the story was only OK, but the actress was the reason to see it. He said the same thing about Nancy Drew, surprisingly enough!

This was on Bravo a year or so ago--it was really fun to watch!

I'll delurk for Ewan. I loved "The Long Way Round". The countries they travelled through were fascinating, and their bonding and friendship was really neat too.
Apparently they are gearing up to do "The Long Way Down" next, riding down through Africa, IIRC.

I thought so, too, Abby. And like I said, it overcame my mother's eyerolling and she got into it too. The Long Way Down sounds dirty. Not that that's a bad thing.ETA: I had Bravo last year...how'd I miss that?Too many channels.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I love the Long Way Round. It's on my tivo wishlist permanently, so that I can rewatch it a lot.

Newsflash: Originality is dead.
I found this disheartening: " The Taking of Pelham One Two Three starts shooting later this year." Although not quite as bad as when they were talking about remaking The Women.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Pelham doesn't sound like a good remake? I mean, it's a decent thriller that's slightly slow now and can be adapted pretty well. They better hurry before they fix South Ferry, though.

To me, the NYC-in-the-70s vibe is so strong, I can't imagine the remake.
