Getting Old

Maybe it's just me, but I find myself a bit weirded out to discover that Meg Ryan, who did all those romantic comedies with Tom Hanks, was recently in a direct-to-DVD film in which she played the mother of Colin Hanks, Tom's adult son.

It's not just you. That is a bit unsettling.

Actually, Meg Ryan just being in any direct-to-DVD film is unsettling too.

No, this seems to make sense.

It would be weird if she were doing a romantic comedy with Colin after doing them with his dad. That might be a little creepy.

That's the weird part: it seems to make sense, and even though there's only a 16 year age difference, it's not totally ridiculous casting by Hollywood standards. But still... my brain refuses to wrap around and accept it.
