Have I mentioned yet how much I love Rachel McAdams? Because oh -oh- oh I do. She embodies beauty, class, and femininity, but she’s not a shrinking violet, either.
And yet – sigh – and yet, Ryan Gosling is still *allegedly* dating Eva Mendes. EVA MENDES. You all know how I feel about this. I realize that Ryan and Rachel had their go ’round (more than once or twice, I believe) and couldn’t make it work, but I mean, for the sake of their fans, their friends, their families – they couldn’t pair up Michael Sheen and Eva Mendes and stick them in a refrigerator in a dump for the next few years? Just, you know, to see what happens between the two of them once more? Can’t they just try to recapture the magic one more time?
No? Alright then. Let’s just look at these new Sherlock Holmes stills and forget I ever said anything about refrigerators, OK?
Two things I find distressing about these pictures – A) I think McAdams seems like a nice girl, but she was the WORST thing about the first Sherlock Holmes. B) Creepy Asian Stereotypes as disguises. What do you call that? Yellowface?
I don’t think much of Rachel McAdams. I’d disagree that she’s a nice person. I find her to be dull, stupid, shallow, and self-centered. This is not unlike a lot of the actor/actress crowd.
Here are a couple of quotes to get you started:
“I wanted to be a secretary, I love paper clips and staplers.”
“If I hurt someone, if I were to accidentally poke someone’s eye out, I would laugh. And then I’d say, ‘I’m sorry, I really do feel bad,’ but then I’m on the floor rolling.”
“You never really know the person you’re sleeping beside. You have a right to your secrets, but that’s very difficult when you’re supposed to be someone’s partner.”
I could go on. I mean, she doesn’t own a car. She doesn’t do relationships, she does “relations” i.e. have sex until she’s tired of someone.
She’s been with Gosling, if that tells you anything. And she’s preposterously over-hyped.
Oh, and I think I’ll go with the fact she was the worst thing (aside from butchering Sir Arthur Conan Doyle) , I mean, Rachel isn’t fit to polish Irene Adler’s silverware. Admittedly, Adler is a fictional person but probably has more depth.
Yeah, I don’t guess I care for her much. The works are much better anyway; I learned to separate “book works” and “movie works” a loooooong time ago.
The movies definitely don’t touch the books, I agree.
