Random JoA Stuff...

You're absolutely right about Adam telling Helen that only to squeeze Bonnie into Helen's class and then turn cad. It was ridiculous. I'm so glad I got to ask Chris about the remarkable chemistry he and Mary had together. It tickled me to no end that he said it was because he was kind of in love with her. I was like, me too!

CappuGirl · 20 Dec 11 :: 21:08

I first loved her in Back to the Future 3 it was my favorite movie saga growing up. My favorite role of hers must be Helen but I always love getting surprised when she gets on screen in movies. she sure gets around!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 20 Dec 11 :: 23:27

Seriously, y'all watch Time After Time. She was 26 when she shot it. She fell in love with her co-star, married him and had two gorgeous kids with him.

Marvalus · 21 Dec 11 :: 05:16

I've loved her since I saw her in "Goin' South" with Jack Nicholson...long time ago. And "Cross Creek" was another good one. She just radiates a something wonderful. I feel like I've known her in a former life!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 21 Dec 11 :: 06:14

I love Cross Creek. I also love Romantic Comedy. I met her when she was touring to promote that movie and came here to Atlanta to do Cinema Showcase. She was very sweet. Then years later, I was picking up my friend Isabel at the airport, she was coming to see me from Miami. And she told me immediately that Mary was on the plane with her kids sitting one aisle up and across from her. So we waited around until she got off the plane and said hi to her, but didn't bug her for an autograph or anything. She'd signed a photo of her and Malcolm from Time After Time for me when I met her before, so it seemed rude. Lily and Charlie were probably 8 and 6 respectively at the time. I really want to interview her someday. My whole journey with JoA is all her fault and I really wanna tell her how amazing and wonderful it has been.

Wow I got behind reading these posts. I agree, I loved the connection Adam and Helen had. I can't wait to see them act together again! It would be great to see!

She would be an amazing woman to interview! I will put Time After Time on my netflix queue

Editsound · 22 Dec 11 :: 05:56

I first saw her in Goin South (her first movie), hated the movie, but kept thinking this woman has something. Then I saw Time After Time, and that was it, she was a star and an absolute delight on screen. I also agree about Cross Creek, and of course Melvin and Howard.
I do also agree that she shined in Back to the Future 3. And more recently, and in the holiday spirit, I loved her in Elf. I only wish there had been more great screen roles for her, (but then she may not have been available for JOA, and that would have been a great loss)

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Dec 11 :: 07:11

Right, right, sho' you right, damn right, so true so true. I fell for both Mary and Malcolm in TAT. And David Warner too. I was 16 and saw the movie on cable. It's still in my top 5 to this day. Look at them. They were beautiful...

Recently, with their kids...

Ooh Mary Steenburgen on 30 Rock! She's so awesome

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 Mar 12 :: 02:40

Nice! I'll have to check that out.

domesticelefant · 13 Mar 12 :: 10:19

You know what, sometimes I still can't believe Mary played that woman in Gilbert Grape. She does a great job, though. It was quite a "shock" when I realized I had seen her in at least two movies before JoA and never realized it was her. LOL

justme · 13 Mar 12 :: 17:59

Hee, if you were shocked by Gilbert Grape don't EVER see "Melvin & Howard". You wouldn't believe that sweet little Mary Steenburgen could act that way.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 13 Mar 12 :: 18:37

She's really different in Nobody's Baby, too. I adore that weird-ass little movie. Probably my favorite thing Skeet Ulrich has ever done.

domesticelefant · 13 Mar 12 :: 19:21

Will check those out if I can get hold of them. I love exploring her talent.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 14 Mar 12 :: 03:33

Gilbert Grape is my favorite Johnny Depp movie. I'm so glad Mary is in it!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 25 Mar 12 :: 21:01

Papa Joe's on Extra Virgin! Woohoo!

domesticelefant · 07 Apr 12 :: 22:16

You know what, a few days ago I was zapping through German television and I happened to catch Mike's Bones ep. When it went to commercial break I changed the channel and who came on? It was Joe in Criminal Minds. That was kinda cool. LOL

Becky Wahlstrom is opening in a solo show in LA!

Saturday, May 5, 2012

It's been a whole lotta talk up to now... but it's finally happening. Me, all by my lonesome on a stage, which sounds like such a terrible idea in retrospect and I'll probably never do this again... (WHAT WAS I THINKING?!?!) ...except Ramsey's done it twice already which makes her "winning" (grrr!) ... and my mom told me I'm funny AND pretty so that sealed the deal.
I'd love to see any or all of you there! We'll drink Margarita's in the beer garden after!
Additional performance on Fri. May 11 @8pm
Call the theater to reserve seats for either night. 10$

TeeJay · 19 Apr 12 :: 23:56

Dammit, I need to fly to LA! That sounds fabulous. Unfortunately, there's a couple thousand miles between me and Los Angeles. Who says being able to beam people is overrated?

TheCentralScrutinizer · 20 Apr 12 :: 01:09

I told her if she'd fly me out and house and feed me, I'd be her superfan in the front row. And I mean it. I adore that woman.

domesticelefant · 20 Apr 12 :: 17:28

Me too! I got the invitation on FB too, and I was like "Oh, you don't know how much I wanna be there!" LOL

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 22 Apr 12 :: 05:30

She just needs Chris to join her and then it would be a perfect must-see!

TheCentralScrutinizer · 22 Apr 12 :: 07:17

Hahaha, thanks, that was funny!
And this is totally random, but it also reminded me how cool old US police cars look. I wish they'd still look like that.

domesticelefant · 24 Apr 12 :: 21:40

Hahaha, just read that on Mary's Twitter:

Loser. RT @McDowellCharlie: My mom doesn't pick up my phone calls but is freakishly fast to comment on my tweets.
