WTF?

How did I not realize that the owner of the Chinese restaurant in the Freaky Friday remake was Keiko O'Brien?

I don't know. How did you not realize that? :)

She's also in the new Reese Witherspoon movie "Just Like Heaven"

i wonder if Miles knows she's moonlighting.

*grin*

Which by a stunning coincience

Is directed by the same guy.

This probably means that M.W. probably has some pull now with casting and can say, "Hmn, I want Chao" for this one.

Heh. :) I didn't know that either.

Does she have a kid named Molly?

[terracinque.livejournal.com]

It was a nice surprise to see her in Just Like Heaven.

After Reese's last two comedies, I wouldn't go to this one if you paid me.

[yendi]

And she was Soon-Lee on AfterM*A*S*H.

Especially for any parts after the top-billed ones.

[yendi]

Heh. Must be another ST Time Travel plot.

It was highly predictable, even considering how predictable chick flicks normally are (as in I predicted to my friend the three main plot points long before they were revealed to be true), and I really didn't like the casting for the leading man.

Last thing I saw her in 'fore this was "The Importance of Being Earnest" which I adored, and now that I think on it, I'm not sure I've seen her in anything else ... *ponders*

According to the always-unreliable IMDB, she only has a son.

[alladinsane.livejournal.com]

yep, but she left Klinger for Miles...he kept wearing her dressses behind her back...

[yendi]

The two I was thinking of are Sweet Home Alabama, which was the most insultingly awful piece of shit I've ever sat through, and Legally Blonde 2, which was just bad (but didn't give me any urge to kill).

Knowing your tastes, I find this difficult to believe.

Just Like Heaven is a real charmer, though. And it's very difficult to dislike Reese, even in a mediocre movie.

[yendi]

I see many bad movies, but not many that directly insult the audience. And, to be fair, those few that do are ones I normaly stop watching early on, but I failed to do so here.

I do agree that Reese herself is eminently watchable. She's done some bad projects, but she's never actually been bad in anything I've seen.

However, Miles and Keiko's daughter is named Molly.

[sarabellum.livejournal.com]

its easy to overlook!

[sarabellum.livejournal.com]

i'm torn, because i really want to see the new Johnny Cash biopic. guess who's cast as June Carter Cash?

[yendi]

Well, I figure that's not likely to be a romantic comedy, at least.

[yendi]

Yeah, that makes sense after my afternoon coffee, but not before. :-)

Oh, you caffeine addicts!
