Thread: I think I'm developing a man crush on Ewan McGregor...

haha, so maybe I'm alone in my crush then...?

Ewan McGregor seems to be the kind of actor who accepts the worse roles the older he gets. He's got a talent and he'd need a better manager. What was the title of the film where he was on a barge, had a girlfirend, but also screwed the wife of the guy who was on the barge?

His buddy "Charlie" drove me from watching the entire series. He always tried to make everything they did sound life threatening or like they were some groundbreaking adventurers on a trip where no man had ever gone. I would have left him on the side of the road day 2.

Ewan McGregor, 12 years ago A Life Less Ordinary

I read the book too and found it rather disappointing. In particular because Ewan McGregor, who I was always rather fond of was such a whiny git. I mean he complained and whinged about everything. I was also hoping for a bit more about the countries they visited and a bit less about their bikes but I guess that was expecting too much. I imagine the show would be better. Ewan seems to be more of a screen person. He doesn't come across well...

you can see his penis in velvet goldmine

Bloody hell that turns me off reading the book because Ewan came across whiner and whiner as the series progressed to full blown tantrums when he demanded to be alone. Charlie was the only saving grace of the series - he was funny. Apparently he gets even whiner in "The long way down", add to that - Ewan's talentless wife demanded to be in it too & after some foot stomping he/she got their wish. That alone is what has put me...
