The 3rd Annual Meg Ryan Birthday Blogathon is just hours away, if you are participating please let me know in the comments…Meg’s movie time may have passed but in the 1990s; oh the joy she brought. In Joe Versus the Volcano, Prelude to A Kiss, Flesh and Bone, When a Man Loves a Woman, Addicted to Love; there was just no touching this woman for elevating a film with humour, genuine warmth, depth, great hair and dazzling kisses.
Gamine, sexy, vulnerable and endlessly entertaining, Meg and her smile captured my fool heart. There will never be another Meg Ryan. She’s unrepeatable. Her blazing talent has been a gift that has kept on giving.
Since there won’t be another, it’s best to appreciate the one we have now, while we’re all still around and kicking. I am hopeful the blogathon will provide a fun celebration of Meg’s career, and maybe you’ll discover a new blogger or two who you’ll fall for. Come back tomorrow, November 19th for the full list of posts.
Addicted to Meg?

Just finished writing up my post, yay – was great to revisit her movies, thanks to your blogathon Paul
It’s been absolutely crazy around here the last week so I don’t know if the lame draft I have up on my site is a sufficient effort. Since you are pretty much the only follower of my site I thought it might be easiest for you to view it there. If it’s useful at all I can spend some time tomorrow revising.
Your post is fine and doesn’t need any revising to my eyes. Thanks RB, I really do appreciate your support.
Hello there Paul, here’s my article… on 5 Meg Ryan Tearjerkers x Hope all goes well today x Love Gill from Realweegiemidget Reviews
Thanks Gill.

I hope you aren’t going to set me blubbing.
Aplogies in advance, but fairs fair… you got me blubbing for Sleepless in Seattle alone!
Here’s my review of Joe versus the Volcano!

Lovely post Kim, I’m reading it as we speak.
Mine post is on its way….

Almost there. But boy is my English shocking this evening…can’t even comment coherently 😉

Hi there! I just uploaded my post: https://silverscreenings.org/2018/11/19/updating-a-1940s-movie-for-the-internet-age/
Thanks for getting involved. I’ll be over later to leave my thoughts.
Here you go: https://thoughtsallsorts.wordpress.com/2018/11/19/proof-of-life-meg-in-a-different-role/
Paul, I have too much work to finish my review on time – I will only be able to write my review some time this week. Sorry about that 😦
No problem, there are no time limits, whenever your post is ready is fine by me. Thanks again for your interest.
I re-watched Innerspace … https://diaryofamoviemaniac.wordpress.com/2018/11/19/innerspace-1987/
Dear Paul,
Here is my article about Meg Ryan films that were remakes of classic movies: https://pureentertainmentpreservationsociety.wordpress.com/2018/11/19/meg-ryan-films-that-were-remakes-of-classic-films-for-the-meg-ryan-birthday-blogathon/. I enjoyed writing it! I know that it is the 20th in England, but it is still her birthday in my time zone. I hope your blogathon was a great success.
Yours Hopefully,
Tiffany Brannan
Thank you for your fabulous post Tiffany, I’m delighted you could bring it to Meg’s party.
Alas, Paul, I never got to writing that Meg piece I wanted to write. I still might, though, but chances are it’ll be once November’s done. Sorry to have missed out on participating in your blogathon – the Megathon! – because I was really looking forward to it. Nevertheless, I love your post and I’m excited to read what everyone else came up with.
It’s no problem Michael. I can’t deny I’d love to have read your thoughts on Meg Ryan, but the door is always open whenever you have the time and inclination. It wouldn’t matter to me if November was done, I’d look on it as more of an early Christmas present. You take it easy my friend.
Great post 🙂 You know, it is hard to believe that in 2019, When Harry Met Sally will turn 30 years old 🙂 Now ain’t that interesting? 🙂 Anyway, keep up the great work as always 🙂
It’s a little scary how quickly time passes.
Can you believe I missed spotting your post with all those fab banners Paul… esp the great When Harry Met Sally one… looking forward to seeing your post with all the fab entries for this blogathon.
Thanks for the kind words on the banners. I’ll try and do a wrap up post over the weekend.
They are fabulous Paul, cant believe I didn’t spot them earlier! Looking forward to the post..
Apologies for not contributing but I have read some and very much enjoyed. I commend you on your ongoing tribute to Ms Ryan.
Hey Paul, your last few posts I can’t pull up when I click to read more? And obviously can’t comment as well. I look forward to reading your last two posts.
I’m sorry Sue my recent posts have run into the delete button. I think it’s time I took a break for a while. Thanks for your support.
We all needs breaks from time to time to replenish. Don’t stay away too long 🙂
Enjoy the break, Paul. We’ll eagerly anticipate your return. Maybe cast your eyes over this, in the meantime. I had a feeling when writing it that you’d find plenty to appreciate about it.

BTW, I’m taking a holiday break myself. It’ll be good for us both. Happy holidays, my friend, and cheers.
Hey Paul, it is me John 🙂 Sorry, I have not been replying as of lately. I have been busy with the holiday season and stuff. Nevertheless, I have an idea for your next blog entry 🙂 Do one on Into the Night as If you were introducing a showing of a film on TV (a la Moviedrome). Just an idea though 🙂 Anyway, keep up the great work as always 🙂
Paul,
I wanted to reply to your post about New Years and the apartment. Your words about the decorations being somewhat melancholy at a certain point was so poignant. I realized how right you are. I think from now on out, I will decorate earlier and clean up right after Christmas. And I missed watching one of my favorite holiday movies, You’ve Got Mail, so you have reminded me it’s not too late! Happy New Year!
Hi Paul,
Thank you so much for stopping by! Happy New Year to you!
Glad to see you’re continuing with Pfeiffer Pfilms and Meg Movies 🙂
Evi
