I'm glad. Are you guys in NY getting together to see the film. I think we're going to be doing it here. I hope it does well next week...there's a lot of movies out there right now.

Our DirecTV guide shows Brosnan on LIVE WITH REGIS AND KELLY today April 22 also.

I caught this interview while at work today. They immediately wanted to talk about his Bond work. Regis wanted to keep talking about Bond and at one point, Brosnan said "Do we have to?" The topic then pretty much changed.

He said the usual stuff about not knowing what the producers wanted. Kelly was practically hanging all over him. And the women in the audience were pretty appreciative of him also.

Whenever I've actually been around Pierce I've very respectful of his space. And I don't look at him like he's a piece of meat. You know, I respect him more than that. Even though I'll be all bouncy and oh-ah about Pierce when I'm with friends or on-line or such... that's not something to take with you when you're around the man - that's just sad.

On another note, I think Pierce is just as tired of talking about Bond 21 and it's "rumors" as the rest of us.

Just like for "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" - they had a lacuna site.

I believe it was Zencat who wondered how the questions about B21 would effect Brosnan's promotion of LoA. I guess we have our answer.

It's a shame...this looks to be a great movie.

Just a reminder to those who love Pierce, or want more of a reason to hate him....

The A&E network does their version of "Biography" to him tonight (Monday on 4/26), at 8 PM.

So I went to see "Laws of Attraction" today at The Grove in Los Angeles. And we got these stellar leather seated box seat -- it was awesome. But back to what this is all about... "Laws of Attraction"...

The movie really worked. Scrip and Plot wise. A lot of romantic-comedies these days are so bland and just don't work right (Along Came Polly, for example). It's rare that you encounter a romantic-comedy that works now a

Hee hee, ya THAT is a movie theater. :) I should have panned over a little more to the right when I took the picture becasue there is a really tall revolving pillar that has "The Grove" in flashing lights on it.

[edit] oh here, I found a pic on-line and here's the website to THE GROVE:

The film works in exactly the way that it should, which is more than I can say for 80% of the Hollywood movies I've seen in the past year. Pierce and Moore click and have chemistry, and that

And, yes, that is a movie theater, one in which this same time next week we will be seeing Van Helsing! Athena gets her girl movie this week, I get my boy movie next week.

Haven't seen LoA yet, but I plan on seeing it tomorrow.

Now...

And, yes, that is a movie theater, one in which this same time next week we will be seeing Van Helsing!


I just picked up the new "Wolfman", "Frankenstein, and "Dracula" DVD sets that have all of the respective films on them. 14 films on just 6 DVDs -- Jordan can't be more pleased. I've been waiting for these forever and I'm glad they are finally out!

I'd give the movie an "A." I agree with everything everyone has said about this movie so far but....

Would the Audrey we have come to that movie sit there and do "wifey" things like make his coffee and clean up his shoes? Me thinks not. The only thing that was very Audrey in that montage was when she sneaks a brownie because she doesn't want to be caught.

I think the unsung heroine of this film is Frances Fisher as the Moister, or is it Sisther? :) She did an excellent job. She reminds me of my own mother dealing with her daughter who is a bit too conservative for her own good.

I think Audrey would (and did) do those things. Why? Because at that point she is falling more and more in love with him and when that happens you want to do little things to show that love. She wants to hide the fact that she has feelings for him, and so what she does do for him as small things. But they're still messages of "i like you".

Pierce really does choose good rolls. Rolls that he knows he can pull off, rolls where he's comfortable in the skin of the character.

Maybe he should go on a diet and get on the treadmill to get rid of those 'rolls'! :)

Hehehe, seriously, glad he got some good reviews.He does do good work when given the chance. I hope he does bail Bond and move forward...how about a Thomas 2?

Don't think it'll happened. At the screening of TCA (in LA on March 16th) with Brosnan & Beau St. Clair a TCA2 sounded very unlikly becasue of the plot and idea of the first one not really flowing well into a second film.

You mean TCA to TCA2? That's the thing, people want happy endings. You know? It's like in life happy endings don't always happen. A lot of people watch movies to escape and a certain genre of films are set up to give you the happy ending. Hey all Bond movies have a happy ending... and they still work continuously. :) But TCA is different, at least Brosnan's and Beau St. Clair's "vision" of the film is different.
