I mean, I realize that neither of these are trending topics anymore, but on the jimi hendrix vs nirvana thread:

I thought Geir's random comment had something to do with the Postal Service being a Seattle band or something but Postal service: Tamborello - California, Giddard - Washington. So I guess it was just one of his trademark inflammatory comments.

Seattle is in Washington as well, Moka. Gibbard is from Bremerton, which is a 55-min ferry ride away from Seattle.

I thought Drugs A. Money had the wrong Washington.

Keira Knightley and Natalie Portman.

http://www.wildsound-filmmaking-feedback-events.com/images/keira_knightley_natalie_portman.jpg even now i'm not certain looking at that.
it's really only Black Swan that's helped me seperate the 2 in my head.

also i read an article in Premiere in about 1987 once about people getting Charles Durning and Brian Dennehy mixed up and have been doing it ever since.

piscesx, Monday, 7 February 2011 18:07 (thirteen years ago) link

Wow, do they have the same surgeon or something?

Madchen, Monday, 7 February 2011 18:24 (thirteen years ago) link

Knightley was in fact the decoy Queen Amidala in The Phantom Menace.
