All Roads Lead to Rome sounds like fun. What's your pick, Dez?
ReplyDeleteI'd pick all of them, but I'm extremely excited about WILL! I love everything Shekhar does
DeleteWill was a bit of a punk, eh? I knew I liked him for a reason. :D
ReplyDeletehe is, not that this gorgeous lil' munchkin Laurie looks anything like a punk!
DeleteI like SJP and her neurotic roles. Also, I love anything to do with Shakespeare.
ReplyDeleteboth should be fun for watching, especially WILL
DeleteAll Roads Lead to Rome is my kind of film.
ReplyDeletewe do love relaxed romcoms in romantic settings

DeleteSeems so many romantic comedies end up going straight to cable/Netflix these days. I wonder if Sarah Jessica's will do well in theaters? I just watched a great romcom on Netflix that was never in theaters. It was great, but 15 years ago, it would have been on the big screen (and probably starred Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant!
ReplyDeleteI think her new movie will be released on VOD simultaneously :)
DeleteI hope Jessica Parker's new romantic movie is any good.
ReplyDeleteshe does need a successful one
DeleteAre you accusing her of having low standards?
DeleteI don't actually mind her movies
DeleteI still have to see Outlander's season 1.
ReplyDeletemost ladies liked it!
DeleteOutlander still seems so far away. I already forgot that Claire was pregnant.
ReplyDeleteAll Roast Lead To Rome sounds like a nice little watch, though SJP does tend to grate my nerves sometimes.
me too, she is such a treacherous wench, she is... oh, look there's a hot Scottish hunk ten years younger than me, who cares I'm married and my husband is looking for me dying from sadness, I shall let this Highlander impregnate me with his warrior muscles.... Puhlease... and ladies love her... imagine if it was the other way around....
DeleteI don't care for her character much either. She had the opportunity to go home and didn't, which left me baffled. If Jason wasn't enough to get me home, modern conveniences would be. But, I guess sexy Scottish hunks are where her loyalties lie.
Deletejust imagine if her husband did the same thing to her and stayed in Scottland for some hot lass? The show would have totally different tone. The ladies would claw his eyes out and remember him as the greatest villains... there's not such a one sided hypocrisy as the female one :) I hear the actors are dating now... although she kinda looks twenty years older than him :)
DeleteWho is Claire?
Deletesome evil wench, pure evil
