PS I Love You...

I thought Swank was good in this film, but I can take or leave the actress, it's not like I don't like her.

Gerry's accent is a bit strained. The Irish accent just doesn't come off right. Now JDM looks all together utterly sexy and he can pull off an Irish accent!!!

For some reason I thought Butler's accent would have been better, not sure why now, DB's is almost better and my God is his accent horrific!

JDM was all kinds of yummy in this! I think it's the eyes! his accent is better but it's not great. and did anyone else think that Jm dipped into an English accent at times through the film?
 
I just came back from seeing this movie! It was really good! and I didn't know james was in it so the first time I saw the side of his face I'm thinking "Is that Spike!?" and then I saw the front and I'm like "Oh yes. It is!why didn't I see that on BB!" LOL well he was awesome despite his small role! and yeah keanoite he did have a bit of english accent in there! lol!

Loving the icon and your banner is great! Really made chuckle in context hehe
First thing I will say about the movie, nothing to do with James, though...I cried my eyes out...Now, moving on 😛

I realised it was James the second he came into it, I didn't know he'd be in it, so when I saw him, I literally squealed right there...much to the shock of the two teenage girls sat infront of me :lmao: But, I don't think he was really in the movie much, but, I'm glad he was in it 😛

And this is the thing Me and my sister keep discussing: How bad was Gerry's Irish accent...? Couldn't they have actually found an Irish person...?
 
I'm just reading the book now and I really can't get into it. I think that the film is a lot better. I don't know if its just the authors writting style but I'm really thinking about just skipping to the end of the book and having done with it 🙁

Really? I like the book alot more. I mean it's never going to be a Plutizer Prize Winner but it's a nice read. Maybe it's because you saw the film first, it's alot different from the book.
 
Nice that this thread was revived! I wouldn't have seen it, otherwise! I saw the movie in the movie house... wow, I just sounded 50, there... with a girlfriend, and we sobbed through the whole thing. Granted... I'm an easy cry, but I really enjoyed it. And, I admit I squealed a bit with the 'vampire slayer' thing. 🙂

I have not, however read the book. After reading the thread, I don't think I want to!

Oh my God his accent is awful! Really really bad. I mean I like Gerard Butler and all but would Colin Farrell or Jonathon Rhys Meyers not have been more suitabl?

LOL! That's what ruined the whole experience for me watching this movie. I couldn't understand why they couldn't just used Gerard's scottish accent, why go for a badly done Irish one? I kept giggling through the whole movie every time his voice came on....my god.
 
I have not read the book, but I wanted to see the movie. Didn't know James was in it until the opening credits, & the moment I saw his name, told my best friend "That's SPIKE!" 😀 (she doesn't watch Buffy or Angel but she knows all about Spike because of my Spike obsession....)

I really enjoyed the movie, even tho I am NOT a Hillary Skank fan. I love Gerard Butler, and I love James Marsters (he should have had more screen time!) and Lisa Kudrow and Kathy Bates were all wonderful in it.

Now I'm gonna have to read the book... because 98% of the time the book is ALWAYS better than the movie.
 
I just bought the movie(ONLY because of James. XD)
I haven't seen it yet. I haven't got the time, but boy am I looking forward to it!

Don't get TOO excited though. James isn't in it that much, (although of course he's brilliant whenever he is. 🙂) It's an okay movie though, so it's worth it. Certainly more interesting than your average Hollywood romantic drama.

On a side note; have you seen James in Without a Trace? He was in 4 episodes in season 6 (1,2,9,12). Not a "meaty" role by any means, but well, it's James :biggrin: If you have TV3, episode 9 is on this Sunday 🙂

Jeg vidste godt at han ikke var med særlig meget.. Men han var brilliant i de scener han var med i :D "What's that smell?"
I totally just saw it...:O

I must confess :I never liked Hillary Swank... She looks.. Weird, I mean look at her!

Lisa Kudrow was brilliant, and totally sweet. different than her "Phoebe" role, but absolutely enjoyable. (Her scene on the boat where she screams is just hardcore funny!)

James didn't have many lines though. DAMMIT! But he was totally cute, and delish. Ready to eat ya know. 😀

Ireland was just breathtaking. OK, small tv screen isn't the same, but if I can go AW WOW over a 10'' screen, then I just have to go see it IRL!

I also wept a few times. I am SUCH a wuss when it comes to movies like this. I mean, when Holly reads the letter by the fort, and his ghost nuzzles to her shoulder. And just says "PS"... I swear, my room turned into a pool.
 
Didn't know that James Marsters was in this movie. Cool.
I just bought it, but only because Lisa Kudrow is in it.

Haven't seen it yet.
Must stop watching Buffy episodes so I can catch up with all these movies I have laying around unwatched.

/SK
 
I saw the movie when it was out in theatre, pretty good film. Hilary Swank did a great job as the main character imo. I was used to seeing Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe in 'Friends', so it was definitely different seeing her in that role for the film. And James Marsters was alright, I still prefer him as Spike =P

Karma... I feel like that too
I saw it today and really enjoyed it! I can't believe I've waited so long to rent it on DVD. James was soooo cute. From what I heard about the movie, I thought he woulnd't be in many scenes, but he was in more scenes than I thought. Such a nice surprise. And Lisa Kudrow - brilliant! And I thought she was much like her character on "Friends", so loveable and funny. So I really liked this movie, and I don't usually enjoy this kind of movies!
 
I adore this movie. I watched it all the way through once and was kind of like mhew, it was okay. Then I re-watched and I am officially a fan. I cry at the end. True story.
