Alessandra you're spot on when you say Meg Ryan is insecure...
And no doubt she is a victim of her plastic surgeons...
But the idea that Sally left Harry for Aussie is rubbish ...
I'm afraid it is not. I think you have forgotten a fundamental part of the story. She left Quaid and eloped with that vulgar troublemaker (and I'm being kind, by personal experience, both mine and that of a friend of mine, and I mean professionally, so he had no excuse, Crowe can only be described as a douchebag). After having done that... SHE WENT BACK TO DENNIS. And asked him to take her back. Considering she had just gone do whatever she pleased with Crowe, leaving behind BOTH Dennis AND her child, Dennis of course told her "no way, José". And he did not take her back. So clearly Quaid must have not been that bad in her opinion, for her to go to him once dumped by Crowe and ask him to take her back. And yet... the rest is history.
I'm a huge fan of quaid and many of his movies are amongst my favs
(dreamscape, traffic , Great balls of fire and of course far from heaven) but angel he no ain't...
His coke addiction and philandering were legend and this is meg's own explanation of their breakup..
"On February 14, 1991, he and Meg Ryan were married. Quaid and Ryan have a son, Jack Henry (born April 24, 1992). They were divorced on July 16, 2001. In a 2008 interview with Insight, Ryan stated "Dennis was not faithful to me for a very long time, and that was very painful. I found out more about that after I was divorced."
Quaid certainly was never an angel. But neither was Meg Ryan. You seriously believe an interview where Meg Ryan, in 2008, without work and with a completely ruined image (not to mention a completely messed-up face because of plastic surgery), states that? It is not true. And trust me, well-informed friends of mine (who live and work in Hollywood) have told me so. If there was cheating, it wasn't at any early point in their relationship. And (shocker I know) she was the one doing it first. Crowe wasn't the first one, but he was just too big and she was just too foolish at that point to manage to keep it quiet. And the drug addiction? Was before they got married, in fact they got married because she helped him clean up. Except she then had the same problem (cocaine). It was a very sad and vicious circle
In fact, not only Quaid came out of the whole thing (the Crowe affair especially) as the wronged one and not the wrongdoer, but also, he's the one whose career kept going, and with many great-quality movies, after that. His image in Hollywood is great as of now and he started a new life after what Meg did. Fact: Dennis Quaid remarried in 2004 and is still happily married with 2 kids. Meg Ryan? Kept going from one loser to another and never settled down again. Meg Ryan came up with that cheating thing in the interview, trying to overturn the general public opinion by stating he basically constantly cheated on her, in one of her many desperate attempts to regain respectability and attention. Miserably failed, sadly, I love her as an actress but the Crowe thing ruined her for good. And, to go and say "he wasn't faithful to me for that long" after 7 years you are divorced and after you have gone back to that man asking him to take you back after YOU have cheated is just pathetic. Quaid sued her over those statements, btw (it's good to have lawyer friends in Hollywood ) )
As to the Aussie, ever seen proof of life? The chemistry between the two was electric..... No surprise they ended together...
But they didn't end together. He just slept with her for a while. And he made her become, publicly too, just as vulgar as he is for the time they were sleeping together. I think I can speak for quite a few Bond girls when I tell you this: a woman is perfectly aware when there's sexual chemistry with someone and when there's love. Meg Ryan had sexual chemistry with that douchebag, and once he of course DUMPED her, she had the nerve to go back to Quaid and ask him to take her back. Why do you think she did that, if he was anything like what she said in that interview? That's because she realized, of course, where the "just sexual chemistry" was and where the "actual love" was. And where the decent person was and where the douchebag was. Except of course she did all that she pleased with Crowe and then what, expected Quaid to take her back? Not really the way it works. It's a very, very sad story about an extremely insecure woman. But she really and I mean really is the one to blame for the debacle her life has become, not Dennis Quaid. He is no saint, nobody is, but the same statement applies to her.
So...at the risk of a blast.....might I offer poor Meg the shoulder of comfort?....
And as to joker-jipes in the words of Solange, I just ain't that cruel cruel
But of COURSE you can offer Meg your shoulder, regardless of all the above! If you like her, you should totally go for her. Oh come on, the joker one was all about the makeup and the big mouth, which really shows in the Donald Duck one too! If she had a friend telling her "Meg, you have GOT to stop doing this because YOU DO look like the joker and Donal Duck!" she would never have gotten to this point! But again, insecurity is a bad thing to go around with. I just think her new thing with that barely divorced rocker is beyond sad. And yet another statement about how the most messed-up one is her, not Dennis, who built up a stable life and a family again. I feel really sorry for her, don't misunderstand me. But I'm not going to overlook what she did just because I understand she is insecure, or because she is a woman. Men are snakes, they suck at times. But women can really be the masters of their own ruin sometimes, sadly. C'est la vie.
That's why we are Bond girls. There is NO doing that with us, because if anyone kicks ass? That's going to be us first and foremost! ) Of course we are the winning Bond girls. Not the ones who are helpless and end up dead. Basically, we're a storm of Pam Bouviers, and Honey Riders, and Pussy Galores, and Jinxes (no jokes please ) ). We get the man, and we do it right for ourselves
"Are we on coms?" (if you don't know where this is from... you've missed some really good stuff! )
You are obviously far better informed than I on this.
The popular take is that she had an affair with RC after the marriage had split and while she filmed proof...
She also contests thAt she dumped crowe.
But if you know with certainty of course I will trust you.
I know quite a few things with certainty because a friend of mine is the one who handled the divorce... ahem. ) See, the lawyers again ) The whole thing about her going back and begging Quaid to take her back, and him telling her "No way" was also widely reported though. I have heard it from direct source but I do remember that being reported back then.
On the joker pics I have no axe - if i don't like them I can look away..
But regarding ALL men being snakes I take exception - I'm actually a Leo.
No no that is not what I meant, in fact at the end of the sentence there is "at times". Men are snakes and suck AT TIMES, not everyone and not all the time of course! And women sometimes are the masters of their own ruin. I meant that as a general comment in the sense of "while men CAN suck, women can too" ) Anyone can suck, regardless of sex. That was the sense. I don't think all men are snakes at all! Just a good portion of them. ) I'm kidding, there ARE good ones out there.
Further , I actually think meg is too puppydog for me - I think I've already
declared for the honor blackman type earlier in the thread
Excellent choice. And yes, very different type from Meg. But hey, you never know, maybe getting to know her.. )
But the fact that you went to so much trouble replying to my comment is appreciated.
And of course why guys frequent "the cooler"

I am not very keen on gossip at all, so if I comment in a "serious" manner it's because I have first-hand info. Otherwise I really just ignore it or laugh it off. After all, it is Hollywood. Everything concerning personal relationships is very blurry and strange there.
Unless James Bond and Bond girls are involved, of course :v

I can always rely on my two-tonic friend to "mix it up a little"
And the maultaschen was a kind gift but we needed a place to store the fresh meat and veg and fortunately a lovely waitress was forthcoming with her icebox :007)
Its important to keep your meat and veg fresh.....
Ah, private lives generally are, seems the unmessy ones are the notable exceptions.
Ain't that the truth. Wanna try the Italian Prime Minister? ) (except it makes me want to cry, but, better to just laugh it over)

Of course... the sparring partners James and Felix at work. Really. I rewatched Dr No last night, it's funny how differently I look at Felix now, knowing he is Jack Lord and being a fan of the remake of "Hawaii Five-0" (a show I warmly recommend to both the Bond girls and the gentlemen in here.. it's really good. Good actors, good writing, good action). Well Jack Lord's hair (may his soul rest in peace) was surely MUCH better in Bond than it was with that horrid wave on the original Hawaii Five-0! )

There goes the Bond wit. Seriously, the more I read about this, the more I think you and Bondtoys are up to NO good ) Which is of course, always a good thing when done with moderation, and most of all, BOND STYLE!

i'll take that as a compliment.....
BTW Jack Lord is my fav Felix....an amazing man, I bought some of his personal effects after his sad passing....
did you know he was quite an established artist....
" He studied at New York University on a football scholarship and majored in art - his paintings are hung in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and other galleries. "I'd rather paint than eat," he once said. "I'm using acting as a way of getting my name before the public. Then my pictures will have a name value." In fact the Metropolitan purchased a lithograph when Lord was plain J.J. Ryan and only 18 years old."
he was also originally tabled to play felix in goldfinger...but cubby blocked it, worried that this might overshadow Connery's bond....
which is ironic as Lord's real name was John Joseph Patrick Ryan, the name of Tom Clancy's CIA hero ....
and both Felix and Ryan's first screen appearance was opposite ......Sean Connery...
Ah, see! I didn't know about Jack Lord also being an artist, had no idea. I literally found out more about him by becoming a fan of the new Hawaii Five 0 (I know many fans of the original who watch it and think that the new version is great, even if it's different from the original, so if you're into it, you should check it out!). I remembered the theme and Lord's McGarrett but very vaguely... I watched a few scenes etc on youtube just to try and remember more about it. I wasn't even born when the original started airing )
But, I agree, Lord was a very good actor, and I also agree his Leiter is the best (it's the original after all). He had great style for the part (and a great haircut, too ) ) and of course was very convincing.
What a coincidence about the name and the appearance opposite Sean Connery... sometimes life is strange. Just like when you and Bondtoys team up ) (and of course the previous post was meant as a compliment)
"Are we on coms?" (if you don't know where this is from... you've missed some really good stuff! )
I am so happy we get to have Matt again, so far the season is starting out great! I love that show!
Btw...did you know he sings????? I saw him at Christmas time on the Kennedy Center Honors and he sang a Broadway show tune! I was shocked! He's pretty good too! Man of many talents.

Oh hell yeah White Collar is baaaackkk And so is our Thomas Crown meets Bond favorite character!
It's such a good thing to have Matt Bomer to regularly drool over again ) ) Of course I know he sings! I can tell you do not follow the White Collar writers on Twitter, do you? They posted MANY a videos from set with both Bomer and DeKay singing, the singing is one of the "things" on the White Collar set... clearly Bomer is a man of many talents. By the way, have you ever seen that absolutely HILARIOUS video with Bomer and DeKay dancing with the new Wii game at Comic Con? With a kid in the middle who was hilarious for how miserable he was ) )
That was possibly the coolest thing ever two actors did at Comic Con... Needless to say Bomer kicked ass ) It's too bad he can never be Bond, but it's still good to be able to see a man with such a distinct sense of style on TV every week!

FINALLY someone has listened to me and Minka Kelly has INDEED been cast as one of the new Charlie's Angels! Yay! Stylish, gorgeous, sexy, she's the perfect Jaclyn Smith replacement. -{
She plays Marisa, "described as a former U.S. Marine, a weapons expert trained in all forms of hand-to-head combat, and a neat freak." Wow.
I guess this means we can't have her as a Bond girl for now... or can we? Maybe this will actually help her case, make her more well-known (not that she isn't already, but this will probably be one of the big hits of the fall, so..)

I'm glad you approve of Minka Kelly. I looove her. I loved her character on Friday Night Lights (especially with my favourite, Tim Riggins, who was played by Taylor Kitsch). I said even on here I wanted her to replace Jaclyn Smith on the new Charlie's Angels and.. there it is! I'm very happy for her as I think she hasn't been very lucky with parts on TV lately, she was cast in a couple of pilots but it all went wrong (not for her, for the entire pilot LOL). This is sure going to be one of the big hits of the fall, so I'm really pleased!
Not to mention, with the part she plays in the new Charlie's Angels, she has more of a chance to be cast as a Bond girl thinking about it! Henry Cavill as Bond and Minka Kelly as Bond girl.. I would think 90% of the world population would go see it if only to stare at one of them ) )

Lexi... I LOOOOOVE Simon Baker. Loved him ever since "The Devil Wears Prada". He's great. And "The Mentalist" is a great series. Procedural, but not the usual trite one. And he's really good in it (he's had award nominations and whatnot for it). .
Now, Bondtoys, about Colin Farrell... I need to talk to your wife. I HATED him too. Until I A) saw him in Miami Vice and met him at a club in NYC, where he was checking me out (I am not bragging, I didn't even freaking notice, my friend had to tell me! ) ). He is... I can't explain. He's got that something. He's not incredibly attractive but he oozes mystery and sexiness in person. Mind you, before Miami Vice and before seeing him in person I couldn't stand him either )
Bridget Moynahan: GORGEOUS. Love her, and she's so classy, too. But yeah, very tall. Don't think they'd cast her with Craig. I don't think they'd cast her with Cavill either because she's older than him ) You should watch "Six Degrees" she was in it, and while the show was short-lived (only one season) she was the lead so you will get to enjoy her!

Why do I feel like I'm watching Bond and Leiter here? Seems like you could basically ruin each other's lives if one or the other opened their mouths... but of course you never would. You just do the whole sparring partners thing.
Surely the gentlemen who attend this place must be worthy? Because if they aren't we will go Bond girl on them
What's this about pretty waitresses and vegetables and meat? I swear, Bond and Felix. Up to NO good
You reeeally shouldn't feel too safe... Bond girls all around, dangeeer!
Don't worry, our praises for Henry Cavill are keeping us very busy, especially the video evidence that requires pause, rewind, play MANY a times in order to judge his many good sides properly
But, we do mention you... so who knows :v
She's cute, unlike other women I actually like her
You are indeed perceptive Alessandra .....
I can always rely on my two-tonic friend to "mix it up a little"
And the maultaschen was a kind gift but we needed a place to store the fresh meat and veg and fortunately a lovely waitress was forthcoming with her icebox :007)
Its important to keep your meat and veg fresh.....
Ain't that the truth. Wanna try the Italian Prime Minister?
Of course... the sparring partners James and Felix at work. Really. I rewatched Dr No last night, it's funny how differently I look at Felix now, knowing he is Jack Lord and being a fan of the remake of "Hawaii Five-0" (a show I warmly recommend to both the Bond girls and the gentlemen in here.. it's really good. Good actors, good writing, good action). Well Jack Lord's hair (may his soul rest in peace) was surely MUCH better in Bond than it was with that horrid wave on the original Hawaii Five-0!
There goes the Bond wit. Seriously, the more I read about this, the more I think you and Bondtoys are up to NO good
i'll take that as a compliment.....
BTW Jack Lord is my fav Felix....an amazing man, I bought some of his personal effects after his sad passing....
did you know he was quite an established artist....
" He studied at New York University on a football scholarship and majored in art - his paintings are hung in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and other galleries. "I'd rather paint than eat," he once said. "I'm using acting as a way of getting my name before the public. Then my pictures will have a name value." In fact the Metropolitan purchased a lithograph when Lord was plain J.J. Ryan and only 18 years old."
he was also originally tabled to play felix in goldfinger...but cubby blocked it, worried that this might overshadow Connery's bond....
which is ironic as Lord's real name was John Joseph Patrick Ryan, the name of Tom Clancy's CIA hero ....
and both Felix and Ryan's first screen appearance was opposite ......Sean Connery...
semper...
But, I agree, Lord was a very good actor, and I also agree his Leiter is the best (it's the original after all). He had great style for the part (and a great haircut, too
What a coincidence about the name and the appearance opposite Sean Connery... sometimes life is strange. Just like when you and Bondtoys team up
I am so happy we get to have Matt again, so far the season is starting out great! I love that show!
Btw...did you know he sings????? I saw him at Christmas time on the Kennedy Center Honors and he sang a Broadway show tune! I was shocked! He's pretty good too! Man of many talents.
Oh hell yeah White Collar is baaaackkk
It's such a good thing to have Matt Bomer to regularly drool over again

That was possibly the coolest thing ever two actors did at Comic Con... Needless to say Bomer kicked ass
FINALLY someone has listened to me and Minka Kelly has INDEED been cast as one of the new Charlie's Angels! Yay! Stylish, gorgeous, sexy, she's the perfect Jaclyn Smith replacement. -{
She plays Marisa, "described as a former U.S. Marine, a weapons expert trained in all forms of hand-to-head combat, and a neat freak." Wow.
I guess this means we can't have her as a Bond girl for now... or can we? Maybe this will actually help her case, make her more well-known (not that she isn't already, but this will probably be one of the big hits of the fall, so..)
Wow....
Your gloat just floated my boat....
Thx alessandra
I'm glad you approve of Minka Kelly. I looove her. I loved her character on Friday Night Lights (especially with my favourite, Tim Riggins, who was played by Taylor Kitsch). I said even on here I wanted her to replace Jaclyn Smith on the new Charlie's Angels and.. there it is!
Not to mention, with the part she plays in the new Charlie's Angels, she has more of a chance to be cast as a Bond girl thinking about it!
Ever seen 'The Mentalist'? staring Simon Baker
Now, I don't normally go for Blonds, (apart from Daniel of course
She would have made a very good "smart and equal" Bond Girl, what happened to her?
P.S. My wife HATES Colin Farell? How are the ladies here feeling about him?
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
well hate is a very strong word.... but I don't like him either..... or Brad Pitt.... or George Clooney.
Really!
well, she leaves the room. She refused even to discussing to watch a movie where he's in
Coming back to Bridget Moynahan: She seems to be pretty tall. Not a problem for me ;%
But maybe for Dannyboy....
Dalton - the weak and weepy Bond!
a man that likes a taller woman.... well that says a lot about the man
However I doubt they would ever cast Bond with one.... (although Grace Jones was the exception...although not a very good one
Bridget is pretty.... not familiar with the programme you mention though.
Now, Bondtoys, about Colin Farrell... I need to talk to your wife. I HATED him too. Until I A) saw him in Miami Vice and
Bridget Moynahan: GORGEOUS. Love her, and she's so classy, too. But yeah, very tall. Don't think they'd cast her with Craig. I don't think they'd cast her with Cavill either because she's older than him
