Oh you must be Joking! What a ponce! And Extreme were crap, and his sig Guitar was awful, and he looked like a timotei advert!

There is no off-topic in the taverns, Jehanne.

Kinda like Sean Bean myself. No reflecrion on his character, I just think he makes a really sexy Boromir. I never pictured Boromir looking that cute! I even like the beard!

I agree with both of you, Allyssa and Tommy! But then I'm not that picky. There are lots of good-looking actors in the world, despite the bitterness on the Legolas thread. I wonder if that's not a big part of why I liked Boromir for once. I was more forgiving 'cause he was sexy? No, that makes me shallow- it was nothing to do with looks at all!

He's a wonderfully shaggy Irish actor who's made some good movies (Excalibur, Miller's Crossing, Usual Suspects, Little Women), some bad ones (Cool World, Mad Dog Time, Stigmata, End of Days, although he was good in that one) and a lot inbetween (Into the West, Smilla's Sense of Snow, Man in the Iron Mask, Enemy of the State, briefly). He was married to Ellen Barkin for a while. And he's terribly, terribly sexy.

You don't like Stigmata or End of Days? But they're great movies! Better than Excalibur anyway, and Little Women.

Oooooh Plastic.... saying anything's better than Excalibur... isn't that like saying TOlkien wasn't a great writer...LOL.

Sean Bean did make me like Boromir for the first time (since reading ROTK, when you find out what kind of pressure he's been under). I loved how he was with the hobbits, though I did miss his "I told you so"'s in the movie.

Orlando Bloom does indeed make a great elf. He is very pretty...er... handsome. I even liked Elrond, thought he was very sexy (especially in the war scenes), but when I saw the elves in Lothlorien, I thought I was back visiting San Francisco... kinda creepy to find that many pretty men in one place. (no offense to pretty men). Makes a poor California desert rat feel quite... plain.

But I found the hobbits the most apealing. I couldn't look at Frodo without (as someone mentioned in another thread) wanting to adopt him as a son, but Merry and Pippin were quite.. apealing. NOt sexy, but they did get to me...

And Aragorn. Wow. Never even was attracted to him until Viggo got a hold of him. Wow... I give him four point five drool buckets out of five. PP.5

I actually liked Neverending Story and Labyrinth (of course, more eye candy for me). What about Hawk the Slayer...lol

Never ending story is great!! and the 2nd one, and the 3rd.....

'Eye of the Tiger' and all the other Sinbad movies. How about them? 'Dark Crystal' was awesome. 'Willow' was fun.

Jack Palance as the bad guy/knight/king and some prince and a really lame elf who was edited when he shot arrows so that his hand never went to the quiver. It was really corny, but I thought eveyone saw this movie... guess it's just one of those "Gen X" things

And what did you think of legend? with Tom cruise?

It's nice but willow will always be one of my favorites

/me looks in the thread, shakes his head, slips on some drool and leaves again with a slight limp

[Edited on 27/12/2002 by Taz]

LOL

Ooh! ooh! I almost forgot 4 buckets of drool :P :P :P :P for bruce willis for his role in north!! he makes a reall cool bunny

Huh. Never could see the appeal of Bruce Willis, and now he has two drool-votes. He always looked, um, smelly to me. But then I've always liked Keanu, so who am I to talk?

Ooh, hey, swampfaye, you glanced by two of my all-time favorites (not counting Errol Flynn, a classic)! Alan Rickman- there's just something about him (the voice maybe? dunno). And he was by far the best thing about Harry Potter, even if he was a bit "evil drag queen"-esque. And Bruce Campbell. I love him! So funny, so sexy, so willing to put up with horrible abuses for Sam Raimi movies! My sister got me a copy of his new book and had him sign it "Hey (jehanne), give me some sugar, baby!" Yay for Bruce Campbell!

Indeed, the Masters of the Universe movie springs to mind as a notable exception *chortle, chortle*

I forgot "Knights Tale"!

Dragonheart... story was good, lots of potential, but it really didn't pull through.

What's the deal with Bruce Willis was the question that was asked. Well, he's got a smouldering sexuality, and for me, he reminds me of a pal that I find terribly attractive, while Kyle M'gdldkan (whatever) from Dune looks like the other pal that I've got a crush on - wonder if there's a pattern there. . .

Another thing that Bruce Willis did was take an exceptional movie and make it even better - he did wonders for Die Hard, and the deal with that movie is that it was one of the first action movies that didn't have a big burly arnold s. type as the hero. Here was an average guy who uses mostly his brains to outwit the terrorists. I like that. And he's intelligent, so I like that aspect of his character, too. Then there's his whisper voice (when he whispers, sigh.). And he was so touching in 6th Sense.

Oh, and I need to amend my list some

Val Kilmer in the Saint
Heath Ledger - for a night of real disco partying
Sean Connery - as 007, of course
Pierce Brosnan as Thomas Crown
and
Micheal Wallace (I think that's his name - he was Rochefort in 3 Musk'eers, but he's a fairly skinny guy, despite his deep voice. Not much on skinny guys. Still he could talk to me over the phone - right? And his hair extensions are GREAT in the Crow)

10 things I hate about you- was a great movie, and was a teenaged version of Taming of the Shrew by William Shakespear. Great stuff.

what's wrong with 21 drooling high school girls?

(Piecrce Brosnan is a girly man!)

honorable mention to all the other hobbits

Putin - kinda short and kinda dangerous. Yikes, Girly! Your crushes are interesting. I was highly impressed, however, at the news conference he had with GWB in TX with the school kids - hilarious.

Pierce Brosnan is NOT a girly man (in the movies), in interviews, he's ridiculously full of himself (for a skinny guy)
