    @Dodgergirl: Yes! I also love it so much more than the Office these days. Leslie is so much more fun to love than Michael, and that means I don't have to keep pausing to cringe like I do with the Office. Also the romance between Leslie and, er, Louis CK is AWESOME. He is so funny, even if this is a toned down version of him--his discomfort in every line to the camera is awesome.

    Also I think Leslie might remind me of me a little more than I realize, heh. Man, I want a cop boyfriend just so that I can say that to my own worst enemies. #openthread

    Normally I'd be like, ugh, why are we remaking My Fair Lady? But the combination of Emma Thompson writing the script, which gives me hope that it'll be far more critical of class and his misogyny, Joe Wright, whose directing Atonement made an excruciatingly and sadly beautiful film, and Knightley who I think is really underrated and does in fact make sense in the role...makes me want to see it.

    The thing about MFL is that, if you do it right, it's actually a scathing criticism of classism and sexism and in the end Eliza tells him to screw off and takes what she's learned and does something she actually wants. We've just obsessed on the makeover part, and re-appropriated it, and completely misunderstood that the physical transformation is superficial and not at the core of the criticism. Which is that you have this pompous, misogynistic old white guy thinking it's entertaining to take a poorly educated poor woman and "remake" her.

    Anyway, maybe I'm naive, but that team up actually gives me hope. I like Knightley a lot, actually. I think she has one of the most breathtaking and interesting faces...and she actually usually stars as very interesting, not standard female characters. And I actually loved her as Lizzie Bennett. #lindsaylohan

    @whynotshesaid: Me too. She has a preturnatural presence and poise for someone as young as she is. And frankly, I could look at her forever. I don't know why, but her face is just my platonic ideal...along with Cate Blanchett, she's one of a handful of people whose physical beauty reminds me of why I'm glad to be an artist.

    She was really wonderful in Antonement and The Duchess. Between those and Bend it Like Beckham, Pride & Prejudice, and even The Jacket, she's done a wider range of characters than people realize. #lindsaylohan

I guess I was confused because Julie Andrews had successfully played the part of Eliza against Rex Harrison in the stage version of the "Pygmalion" musical, and there was a kerfuffle in Hollywood because the producers ex-nayed her as an option from the get-go.

Also, Julie Andrews' "My Favorite Things" number from The Sound of Music has proven itself to be more of a pop culture staple than "I Could Have Danced All Night" from My Fair Lady.. And for the record, I adore both Dutch-born Audrey Hepburn and Brit-born Julie Andrews..

    @FattyCatty: I think it's obnoxious they're remaking it just because the original is such an unbeatable classic. But more generally, let's be honest - there's very little that's new, creatively speaking. I mean, "Hedwig and the Angry Inch", about a post-op transexual from East Germany, has a song based on one of Plato's dialogues. The question is whether you can do something interesting with the tradition. #lindsaylohan
