While the premise of “Going the Distance”, a romantic comedy about a long-distance relationship starring Justin Long and Drew Barrymore, doesn’t seem appealing to me in any way, I can no longer completely dismiss it as it has now cast “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” star and co-creator Charlie Day and Christina Applegate aboard.  While I think Applegate is terrific (she really held her own against her four male co-stars in “Anchorman”), I’m really psyched about Day co-starring in the film.  He’ll play Long’s best friend while Applegate will play Barrymore’s sister.  No word yet if Day’s character will be addicted to huffing spray paint and doing impressions of Serpico.
