Check out Steve’s Ewan McGregor Movie Ranking Page
Young Obi-Wan Kenobi gets his UMR page.
The first movie I saw him in was Shallow Grave, followed by Trainspotting.
I’ve seen 21 of the 50 films on the list, favorites include The Island, Robots, Jack the Giant Slayer, Black Hawk Down and the much maligned Star Wars prequels.
I haven’t seen the new Beauty and the Beast or T2 Trainspotting yet.
Good work Bruce, the Force is with you. Vote Up!
Hey Steve.
Yep a Scotsman gets a page. I have seen 35 of his movies. I have seen all of your favorites. My favorites would be Black Hawk Down, A Life Less Ordinary, Moulin Rouge and Big Fish. I have seen Shallow Grave but have not seen either Trainspotting movies. I did not like any of his Star Wars movies…with Attack of the Clones being my least favorite McGregor movie ever. Thanks for the feedback.
