Oh, my friends...

I'm not really sure how I feel about this, but it was too squirm-inducing not to share:



On the one hand, Ewan McGregor is congenitally adorable. On the other, well, Jim Carrey. I mean, I really enjoy some of his movies. The Truman Show was awesome and Bruce Almighty was a lot of fun. But I just can't see where they are going with this. Goofball RomCom? Another movie in the "Gay is Funny" genre? I just can't tell.

Maybe I'm just pissed off that Jim FREAKING Carrey gets to snog Ewan McGregor.

I fear to look, yet I cannot turn away.

That. Is. So. Wrong!! JIm Carrey cannot put his hands on Ewan. Ever.
But Ewan is lovley, as always. Jim Carrey is not, as always. I'm traumatized. Need to go lay down.
Jeez.

I have to admit, I'm more bothered by Ewan's Southern accent, per usual.

Well, I don't live in the South and I think Obi-Wan... err Ewan's Southern accent is horrible. Makes me cringe. So is deadcat saying it's an authentic Southern accent or not? I'm confused.


But more importantly, why, oh, why did they pick Jim Carrey of all people to be touching Ewan???? Ick, ick, ick!

I don't know about this movie. I can barely figure it out from the trailer. But actually, I like Jim Carrey. If the reviews are good, I might see it.

I'd say my biggest problem with this (besides the only Jim Carrey movies I can remember liking being The Truman Show and Earth Girls Are Easy ;), is that it's mostly about him, so Ewan is just a side character. I like my Ewan with lots more screen time. *snicker*

Hee - that must be it. Logically, there can only be a finite number of movies where Ewan plays a gay/bi character. And one of those roles goes to, as you say, Jim Freaking Carrey!
