quote:In reality, though, [Shirley Hendersen] is more than 20 years older than Moaning Myrtle. And she possesses the pragmatic, no-nonsense confidence of her 37 years. She certainly has no delusions of self-importance and no pretensions of fame - nor does she have the incessant weepiness about her that summed up both the Harry Potter role and that of Jude in Bridget Jones’s Diary.
Holy Voly, I never would have guessed.

Well, Gary Coleman is running for Govenor of CA.
"What you talkin' bout?"

Wow...I thought she looked kinda old (for Myrtle) but I just thought it was the ghosty makeup.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Whew, at least I'm younger that she is!

"Moaning Myrtle" sounds like a porn-star name.

I think she's running for governor of California.

Asked if the date could lead to a sexual encounter, campaign aide Jayson Helgeson replied: "I don't think so, that's not part of it. It's like a normal date."
Pressed to clarify what a normal date means for a woman who has appeared in [edited: by me, deal with it], he put the phone on hold to clarify and then responded: "No sex, no matter what."

He had to put the phone on hold? This is getting worse by the second.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
They call them candi-dates for a reason you know.
Don't worry Kat. With all the other candidates, I bet she won't get more than 10% of the vote.

Mary Carey's Platform
quote: My Gubernatorial Platform The most important issue facing California right now is our $38 billion deficit and 6.7% unemployment rate. California needs a governor who will get our finances in order! As a “political outsider,” I have fresh, original ideas for helping the state generate revenue and reduce its deficit. Here are just some of them:
1. Legalize gay marriage in California. This will generate a tremendous amount of revenue for the state as a honeymoon destination.
2. Tax breast implants. From Beverly Hills alone, we should bring in millions in tax revenue. (Note: I am all-natural and I personally discourage the use of implants!)
3. Make lap dances a tax deductible business expense. This will help grease the wheels of business in California and stimulate our economy.
4. If I’m elected Governor, I will wire the Governor’s Mansion with live web cams in every room. We will create a pay site, and all money collected will go toward reducing the deficit. Californians will get to see their government in action - literally! (Also, we will have people from around the globe helping to pay off our debt, so it doesn’t all fall on the shoulders of Californians.)
5. I will create a “Porn for Pistols” program to take handguns off the streets. Dealing with the violence and injuries associated with handguns is a huge drain on our state's resources.
6. As Governor, I will recruit fellow performers from the adult video industry as ambassadors of good will. These ambassadors will be a great help to California when it comes to such things as negotiating rates for buying electricity from neighboring states.
7. I will coordinate the state’s unemployment and jury systems, so that anyone who applies for unemployment will instantly be called for jury duty. This will save California state and local governments millions of dollars, because we won’t have to pay for jury duty. It will also relieve those with jobs from the stress of serving on lengthy juries.
8. I will fight the federal government's attempts to harass the adult video industry. Adult video is an $11 billion industry that creates more than $23 million in taxes each year for the state of California. We can't afford to lose this tax base!

Where's that from Thor? It's hysterical.
Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :
I don't think its a joke, Kayla. I've heard of some of those provisions before.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Sadly, it's still hysterical.
Posted by The Silverblue Sun (Member # 1630) on :
Do a google search on Marey Carey...
the first few options will be some very disgusting things, so don't take them...
go to the one that talks of her for gubner. It's PG-13.
Posted by Marek (Member # 5404) on :
I had never heard that an adult fim actress was running, I guess with all the candidates that are in this race, some really funny ones slip through the cracks.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
You find out all kinds of interesting things that most people have never heard while surfing here at Hatrack. We seem to know everything.
Posted by Ryuko (Member # 5125) on :
LOL, Thor.
I knew Moaning Myrtle had to be older, because she has to stay the same age appearance-wise until the fourth movie comes out, when she comes back. If she really were that young, she'd have aged and would look different.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Wow, that is one screwed up website Thor. How could you stand going through it?
Posted by The Silverblue Sun (Member # 1630) on :
I've got a strong stomach for bad looking boobs.
It's liquids and genitailia that I can't stand.

Maybe we weren't looking at the same site.
The one I was looking at looked like it was a radio interview. It's scroll bar at the bottom of the page looks like the scroll bar on the side of page at hatrack when it gets to its 49th post. It was a mess to try and read.

...unless her definition of "No Sex" is like Bill Clinton's. If they are using the same dictionary, she may get a few donations.

I'm so sad about the turn this thread took. Who can I blame? *scrolls up*
Dante! Dagnabbit.

Sorry.
Let's all get back to talking about Moaning Mertle, no more speak of Moaning Mary.
Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :
Man, Kat sure can wreck a party.
Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :
So.... I pictured her plainer in the books. She was sad in the movies, but her smile was too cute for her to be dreadful.
Posted by dkw (Member # 3264) on :
Her voice was dreadful, though. And not at all in the way I imagined it.
Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :
Too... wispy, or something. I pictured more of low gurgle.
Posted by ak (Member # 90) on :
I thought the actress that played Moaning Myrtle was horrible! She was the most annoying thing in the movie, and looked nothing at all like a young girl. I really hope they get a new one for future MM appearances.
Posted by sarcasticmuppet (Member # 5035) on :
It makes sense to get an adult actress. I was wondering how they were going to explain a three-year older ghost in Movie IV.
As for her part in Movie II, it didn't strike me as horrible. It was a pretty minor part.
Posted by Bob the Lawyer (Member # 3278) on :
See, I'd have to say that most annoying part about the movie was the ending.
Posted by sarcasticmuppet (Member # 5035) on :
Hagrid's triumphant return to the Great Hall? Yeah, it definetely could have been better.
