Can you even imagine a better scenario for Dog while we’re away from home? I mean, my GOD. Seriously. I am so thankful for Valria and her amazing generosity and the clearly superior lifestyle she has provided for Dog, goddamn.
In other news, I have almost no news, really. Things have been enjoyable and mild and the hours are just flying by, and it’s apparent to me that I am about a thousand million times happier with other people around while staying at home with the boys. I mean, that’s sort of a no-shitter, and yet it’s been a surprise, this visit, how entirely pleasant it’s been. Except for the tines-up utensils in the dishwasher, which ARE YOU KIDDING COME ON DO YOU WANT TO FUCKING STAB YOUR HAND-MEAT OR WHAT.
I miss talking to you and I miss hearing from you. So can we play a game, just so I have an excuse to hear from you: tell me, who are your all-time top movie crushes?
Here are mine:
• Ed Harris, as his character in The Abyss (the ring-being-caught-in-the-door scene in that movie is the very reason JB has a titanium wedding ring)
• Johnny Depp, especially in the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie
• Nicolas Cage in Wild At Heart
Your turn!

John Cusack in Say Anything and The Sure Thing. I used to hope he would knock on the door of the house I was babysitting in and then conveniently become trapped there with me during a blizzard.
Daniel Craig in Casino Royale. Because he is amazing and British and those eyes!
Jude Law in The Holiday. I know he is a total shit who shags the nanny, but oh, my.
Colin Firth. Mr. Darcy. Oh my. I also confess to loving Matthew MacFayden in the most recent Pride and Prejudice.
Current most recent crush is James MacAvoy in anything, though I did not care for Atonement.
Oooh, this is worth being late to work for:
1) Johnny Depp in pretty much anything … let’s go with Gilbert Grape for now
2) Brad Pitt in Fight Club
3) Harrison Ford in any of the original (can’t believe I have to clarify this) Indiana Jones movies
4) My first-ever movie crush was on the guy who played opposite the young Katherine Heigl in the 1991 classic (ha!) My Father the Hero … I believe his name is Dalton James. So hot.
Here are my old crushes from throughout the years…
Johnny Depp in anything
Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon
A.J. from Empire Records
Both Skeet Ulrich and Matthew Lillard (um, ew) from Scream
I KNOW there are some really obvious ones I am missing but I’ll have to update later when they come to mind…
hahaha…”Johnny Depp in anything” is going to be a popular choice, I think
Glad to hear you are having a good time, company can sometimes be a life saver!
Hmm all time top movie crushes - that shouldn’t be too difficult:
* Alan Rickman - Sense and Sensibility
* Patrick Swayze - Dirty Dancing (predictable I know)
* Hugh Grant - Mickey Blue Eyes (urgh now I need to go and wash my mouth out with soap…)
Nothing shocking, previous crushes have included Sean Connery, Steve Martin, David Duchovny & Mark Harmon
Definitely James McAvoy…OMG! Drool - Oh and Gerard Butler…another OMG.
Life at Valria’s house looks like doggie heaven. I love the “sleeping together with her new best friend” photos. Maybe Dog can go for visits even after you’re home!
Movie crushes, I seem to go for the older guys. For example:
(1) Gregory Peck in “Roman Holiday”
(2) Burt Lancaster in “Field of Dreams” (his twilight years)
(3) I also thought Ed Harris was great in “The Abyss” and just watched that movie last weekend on AMC.
(4) Pierce Brosnan in “The Thomas Crowne Affair” (the 1999 version)
Brad Pitt in Fight Club AND Ed Norton in Fight Club.
Johnny Depp in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?(I loved Gilbert!)
That’s all I can think of for now!
1- Cary Grant. Oh, that man. Seriously hot and dashing debonair.
2- Johnny Depp in anything, but he’s REALLY great as a river rat in “Chocolat”. Mmmm!
3- Colin Firth, Alan Rickman, and Hugh Grant. Can I get a hells-yes for my favorite British men? They all rock Jane Austen.
4- Joseph Fiennes in “Shakespeare in Love”. My husband likes the movie just because he reaps the benefits, if’n you know what I mean.
Mine:
* Leonardo DiCaprio in Romeo and Juliet
* Joseph Fiennes in Shakespeare in love
* Mark Hamil in Star Wars
* Johnny Depp in everything he is in.
* Brad Pitt in Interview with the Vampire
* Heath Ledger in a knights tale. :(((((
Kurt Russell as Snake Plisken in escape from NY or Wyatt Earp in Tombstone
Sam Elliot in anything, the guy he played in We were soldiers is actually related to me
Matthew McConoughy in anything, hot hot hot
Nick Nolte in the Deep, the reason I learned to dive
And last but def not least Shawn Connery, but not so much in the bond movies
brad pitt in fight club. adrian brody in ANYTHING HE HAS EVER MADE.
- Johnny Depp in ANYTHING. But I fell in love with him in Edward Scissorhands and the romance has continued to this very day
- Cary Elwes as the Farmboy/Dread Pirate Roberts in The Princess Bride
- Heath Ledger first in 10 Things I Hate About You and then all over again in A Knights Tale
Hugh Jackman in Van Helsing
-Joseph Fiennes in Shakespeare in Love…. oh the broody eyes. Yum!
-Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy delish :)
-And pretty much the entire male cast of the 13th warrior -Hairy viking warriors… right on!
Michael Madsen as Jimmy in Thelma & Louise.
Clive Owen in anything.
Colin Firth in ‘Bridget Jones’, particularly when he’s lying in bed and says to her, “I like your squishy bits” … the expression on his face when he says that? PHWOAR!!! Also as the other Mr Darcy in ‘P & P’ … oh that wet, clinging shirt :).
I’d quite like to bite Alan Rickman’s lips on any given day, particularly when he’s reading poetry to Marianne in ‘S & s’ and, frankly, I’d like to roll with naked voluptousness in his voice. I’d also really rather like to make babies with the voice of Joe, the husband-dude from ‘Medium’. Yes, I have quite the aural fixation indeed.
Hmmmmm, also, love, love, looooove John Corbett as ‘Chris in the Morning’ on ‘Northern’, John Cusack no matter what, Sidney Poitier and Gregory Peck = BEAUTIFUL and oh God, yeah, Johnny Depp in ANYTHING.
Damn there are a lot of fine looking men out there! Here are my nominees:
Bruce Willis old die hard style, so sweaty and dirty (I really like Clive Owen in shoot em up, are you getting the theme here?)
Carey Elwes in Princess Bride sort of morphed with Matthew Modine in Cutthroat Island
Denzel Washington in Mississippi Masala, yumyumyum!
John Cusack and Johnny Depp in practically anything!
Say no more, otherwise I wont stop!
Keanu Reeves ( The Replacements)
Bruce Willis (Die Hard)
ORlando Bloom in anything
Brad Pitt (lost legends?)
Jeremy Imes(sp) (Elizabeth)
Sam Elliot in anything
Kevin Costner (Wyatt Earp or Tombstone Whichever one he played in, I always mix them up)
Kurt Russell (see above mentioned movies)
Patrick Demsy (sweet home alabama)
* Catherine Zeta Jones in High Fidelty
* Ellen Page in Juno (WHAT? She’s 21 okay!)
John Cusack in pretty much any movie but especially from the Say Anything / Sure Thing / etc. era.
Orlando Bloom in his blond elf role for LOTR (I’M NOT PROUD).
Hugh Grant in Four Weddings and a Funeral.
Hm. I’m sure I have some more RECENT selections, but…too early in the morning, perhaps.
* Johnny Depp (loved him since the late 80’s…remember “21 Jump Street?”)
* Orlando Bloom (I didn’t notice him until he was in a movie after “TLOR”-not fond of him as a blonde at all but as a brunette, woohoo!)
* Heath Ledger (especially in “The Four Feathers”…RIP)
Ooh, how could I forget one more: Daniel Radcliffe. Now that he’s 18, I can proclaim him as HOT! Especially in his publicity shots for the play he’s in (Equuis, sp?). What a six-pack he has!
Oh, I just can’t resist.
Rodney A. Grant in Dances With Wolves. Actually in anything!
James Ryan in his karate flicks
Viggo Mortenson in the Rings Trilogy
Joaquin Phoenix in the Village
Val Kilmer in Tombstone. And a lot more…
Alan Rickman in just about anything
Keanu Reeves in Speed
Adrian Brody in lots of things…
Not forgetting Cary Grant and Gregory Peck!
Ah, there are far too many!
Oooh ooh, what fun.
Hugh Grant in Love Actually
Pierce Brosnan in almost anything, but esp. The Thomas Crown Affair
Both Rupert Everett AND Colin Firth in The Importance of Being Earnest
I have a little weakness for British boys :)
Ha Ha, Keri, I saw some pictures of Daniel Radcliffe from Equus! OMG!
Then I felt like a dirty girl because with those pictures were also pictures of him from Harry Potter when he was like 10.
I have a lot of movie crushes but I am just going to mention 1 Jason Statham!! Yum.
Also, Dog looks like she is in HEAVEN!!
Hmmm…I’m sure I’ll forget someone, but:
Matt Damon in The Bourne Identity
Kevin Costner in Bull Durham
Nicolas Cage in Valley Girl
George Clooney in Out of Sight
Adrian Grenier in anything
I haven’t seen Daniel Day Lewis on anybodys list. He is MY favorite most recently in There Will Be Blood…I left the theatre totally in LOVE.
I too am a James McAvoy fan. Yummmyummm.
And Colin Firth–Bridget Jones
Orlando Bloom–Lord of the Rings (really? An elf? YES.)
And the fox in Disney’s Robin Hood. I know. I’m taking them right now.
Andy Garcia in Godfather
Matthew Modine in Vision Quest (high school crush!)
I can’t believe I’m admitting to this, but when I was little my grandparents had a tape of Going Bananas (which has the following review on imdb: Probably the most unfunny comedy ever.) I loved it. And I had the hugest crush on the kid, who evidently is David Mendenhall? Whatever, I was 10. And totally in love.
In high school I was obsessed with Matt Damon (in anything). Can I cheat, though, and say right now I would probably sleep with about 30% of the cast of Lost. Particularly Sayid.
Oh, I have to agree with your first commenter - John Cusack in The Sure Thing. LOVED that movie when I was a teen. In more recent years, Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice (the long BBC version). I could watch that movie over and over again.
I haven’t read the other comments because I don’t want to ruin my in-head-fantasy, lol. My all time favorite movie crush is Jason Bourne. He is dangerously sexy. Do you hear me? DANGEROUSLY.
Daniel Day Lewis in Last of the Mohicans
Viggo Mortensen in LOTR
James Gandolfini as Tony Soprano (I know that’s TV, but I can’t leave him out)
Brad in Fight Club
Johnny in anything, but Chocolat and Don Juan Demarco stand out
George Clooney in O’ Brother Where Art Thou
I would have to say Harrison Ford in Regarding Henry..my all time favorite HF movie.
What fun!
Ewan MacGregor (Moulin Rouge, Down with Love)
Johnny Depp
Colin Firth in P&P
Rupert Everett in An Ideal Husband
Michael S Vartan in Never Been Kissed
Alan Rickman in many things
Matt Damon (Bourne)
At times, I have crushed on Julian McMahon
I don’t know his real life name, but “Jake” from Sixteen Candles…I LOVED him when that movie came out!
Colin Firth in anything really.
Jude Law in The Holiday
Brad Pitt in that movie where he shags his brother’s wife and has long hair and looks dreamy…
Nathan Fillon - in Serenity, Waitress, Slither…anything really.
Ryan Reynolds - I didn’t think much of him in that show 2 Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place, but then I saw him in Blade 3 (can’t believe I am admitting that) and must now see him in everything he is in.
Brendan Fraser - any of the Mummy movies. And anything else around that time frame to now. He just gets better with age.
(hmmmmm. I seem to have a thing for the same type of guy - those personalities are all similar)
John Cusack - in anything.
Colin Firth - He is the dreamiest Mr Darcy ever. God bless the DVD.
Patrick Dempsy - in With Honors. He’s completely dreamy now as well, but the first time I saw that movie and realized how HOT he had become after he grew up from Can’t Buy Me Love…sighhhhhhh.
Not a movie, but I love James Spader in Boston Legal. He’s so complicated, witty and intelligent.
I typically don’t *do* actor crushes, so that’s all I have.
1. Steve McQueen in Love with the Perfect Stranger. Oh, my favorite bad boy/stud muffin of all time. Hot hot, starting with Wanted: Dead or Alive TV series in the 50s.
2. Sean Connery - that voice, yum.
3. Beautiful Denzel in anything, especially Glory
4. Cary Grant, but of course
5. Djimon Hounsou in In America & Blood Diamond
5. Ken Wantanabe in Last Samurai
Mel Gibson in Anything, before he got to old
Matthew McConahey (however you spell it) in ten things…(I married a man even more wonderful)
The dude in my big fat greek wedding, also because he loved a fat chick and I qualify for that catagory.
That’s all I can think of.
So glad you had a great time with your in-laws. I personally am too socially awkward to spend that much time with mine. Although they are nice enough, I am just a misfit.
Your pictures are beautiful.
oh oh oh and Brad Pitt in Meet Joe Black. Holy God in Heaven, that man.
Also, I cannot remember the name of the movie for the life of me, but the one that Bruce Willis is a cop and a bunch of women that he has dated are getting killed, and come to find out his uncle and cousin are in on it and are crazy. He lives in some boat house or something like that, it’s old school….but Bruce is HOT in it.
p.s. Brad Pitt in Legends of the Fall, which is the movie several have referred to. I’ll watch that every damn time it’s on, just for him. Aiden Quinn ain’t too shabby in it, either.
Oh, yeah, Indiana Jones… woo, hotness.
I’m also a sucker for Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnen as James Bond - the accents, the killing.
Though I also adore Jake Glyllenhal in Donnie Darko, which is probably not okay to admit since he’s supposed to be a disturbed high school kid and all that.
I think I have a thing for dangerous movie guys.
I’m right there with all the dirty old women and their Daniel Radcliffe crushes.
And Johnny Depp..
Alan Rickman - if you’re looking for a great, older movie with him, check out “Truly, Madly, Deeply.”
And Jason Statham. It’s due to him that I finally allowed my balding husband to shave his head to stubble.
Hugh Jackman.
And, for the inner TV-geek - David Tennant. (Doctor Who.)
OOh, fun game!
Daniel Craig in Casino Royale. OMG.
George Clooney in Out Of Sight. Kind of a bumbling criminal with a soft side.
Viggo Mortensen in LOTR. I think there’s a couple of comments that include him and I certainly can’t disagree.
Matt Damon in Bourne Identity. So manly, and yet vulnerable. YUM!
Steve McQueen - Bullitt. YUM.
Daniel Craig in Casino Royale because looking at him makes me feel funny.
Johnny Depp - yeah.
Has no one mentioned Michael Schoeffling? Holla, Jake Ryan, teen dream boy.
Matt Damon - Bourne.
Jude Law - Talented Mr. Ripley.
River Phoenix - Running on Empty.
What a treat for Dog! She looks like she’s having a blast (can dogs have a blast?)
On to the list!
Liev Schreiber (Mixed Nuts, RKO 281, Narrating ANYTHING)
Jake Gyllenhaal (Donnie Darko)
Viggo Mortensen (Eastern Promises)
Jimmy Stewart (Rear Window)
I’m sure there are a skillion more, but that’s what’s coming to me after only one cup of coffee!
I tend to not fall as much for men in movies. I prefer my guys on television. A movie is so fleeting - it’s a quick two hour roll in the hay. A television boyfriend is a sustained relationship, except without any of the bad smells and the nagging to share the ice cream.
That said, John Krasinski from “The Office.” B.J. Novak from “The Office.” Ed Helms from “The Office.” Rashida Jones from “The Office.” Jenna Fischer from “The Office.” Really, if they have been near the set of “The Office,” I likely have the hots for them.
Lee Pace from “Pushing Daisies” and “Wonderfalls,” and also from the recent movie “Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day” in which the incredibly wise choice was made to have him all scruffy-like and speaking in a British accent.
Hands down: Andy Garcia in When A Man Loves a Woman. So sweet.
And, Jake Gyllenhaal in pretty much any movie. So cute.
I think that Bruce Willis movie referenced above is “Striking Distance,” maybe?
Johnny Depp
George Clooney
Andy Garcia
and my really dirty secret is Ken Wahl, who hasn’t done jack shit in over ten years and even then it was on tv, but OMG, Wiseguy. Swoon.
Pierce Brosnan and Cary Grant. I like suave, gorgeous “real” men who have a sense of humor, can do slapstick comedy in a tux and can laugh at themselves. I dig Johnny Depp too. David Bowie, though, rules my universe. He’s been in movies so he counts.
Hmm, I *must* second Ed Harris in the Abyss before anything else. (I campaigned for a titanium wedding ring, but no dice!)
Pierce Brosnan in the remake of The Thomas Crown Affair. Bonus points for the glider.
Cary Grant in Father Goose–I’ve loved that character since I was eleven, and he gave me an unfortunate taste for rakes.
Somebody mentioned Daniel Craig as James Bond? Yum. Honorable mention.
And, oddly, Natalie Portman in V for Vendetta. Another honorable mention.
The character Will from Good Will Hunting. So my dream guy.
Ha! I’m with Melody. Let’s do TV crushes next.
Ioan Gruffudd in Horatio Hornblower (holy swoon).
Christian Bale in . . .everything.
George Clooney. Of course.
1. Eric Bana in anything, absolutely ANYTHING. He’s just so sexy!
2. I have to second Liev Schreiber, that man has the best voice.
3. Matt Damon as Jason Bourne…YUM!
I love the photos of Dog first and foremost. Perhaps you need to set up play dates for Dog as well?!
Johnny Depp in pretty much anything but I have to agree definitely the Pirate movies!!!
Matt Damon esp. in this last Bourne movie & Good Will Hunting - omg I wanted to die during that last Bourne movie… Of course I was newly pregnant and hormonal and having those weird early pregnancy dreams so who knows what I would think now…
Leonardo DiCaprio - Again someone I normally think eh but in The Departed. Oh. MY. GAWD! Again I was in the same state as above so I may watch that again after pregnancy and see how I react but good lord!
And oddly not that you asked but I have this thing for the guy who plays Charlie Crews on the TV show Life (Damian Lewis) and I have no idea why?!
Brad Pitt and George Clooney in Ocean’s trilogy
Matt Damon in the Bourne series and the Departed (and, oh hell i’ll admit it…Eurotrip)
David Morse in Proof of Life
Mark Wahlberg in the Departed and Invicible
Mmmm…Jake Ryan, 16 Candles - definitely.
Heath Ledger in 10 Things I Hate About You.
Johnny Depp in Crybaby. Lord, I used to LOVE that movie.
Paul Rudd in Clueless.
Matthew McConaughey in A Time to Kill - he’s so sweaty!
And finally, the guy who plays Buzz Ravenel in Shag. Wowza - random list, huh?
….and from the older crowd…..
Richard Gere in Officer and a Gentleman
Richard Gere in Pretty Woman
George Clooney in anything….
I have a yellow lab the same age as Dog and have to go away for ten days in June…..ya think Valria is available? Will she come to Colorado? ;)
Johhny Depp
and
Tadanobu Asano.
Mr Asano is considered “Japan’s answer to Johnny Depp.”
Which makes me ask: Wait a second. Johnny Depp was a question? And why isn’t that question: WHY HAVEN’T YOU CALLED ME YET, MR DEPP?
Seriously, though.
Tadanobu Asano, for the win!
I’m going to have to be choosy, I think. This list could go on forever!
1 - Johnny Depp, especially in Chocolat, but also in Pirates. . . YUM!
2 - Viggo Mortensen in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and in Eastern Promises
3 - Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy (sigh)
4 - Orlando Bloom, for LOTR and Pirates
5 - Hugh Jackman, in “Someone Like You” opposite Ashley Judd
And oh, God, Gerard Butler, Daniel Craig, John Cusack, James Spader. . . I told you I could go on forever here. . . :)
Awwwww. So nice to see Dog having such fun!
As for the list–
Daniel Day Lewis — Last of the Mohicans
Julian Sands — Room With a View
Cary Grant — Notorious
Harrison Ford — Witness
Jake Gyllenhaal — Donnie Darko

The dude from Sweet Home Alabama. Ahh…
Ohhhh, Leonardo DiCaprio in Romeo+Juliet. He was so baby-faced and had those piercing eyes, and….hummina.
Also, Brad Pitt in A River Runs Through It; Johnny Depp in just about anything; Taye Diggs in Go; and Jake Gyllenhaal in…anything. I also found Tim Olyphant in Catch and Release (worst movie ever) and Skeet Ulrich in Scream to be hot in a grungy/bad boy kind of way.
By a long shot it’s Colin Firth as Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice. My God, I’ve watched that movie far too many times, all 6 hours of it. But I see that I’m not alone in this obsession at least.
1. Michael Schoeffling in Mermaids and wild hearts can’t be broken
2. Will smith in hitch
3. brad pitt BUT ONLY in the oceans movies
and for nostalgic purposes I had the HUGEST crush on Jonathon taylor thomas and joey lawrence WHOAH
Harrison Ford in anything Indiana Jones and Star Wars, Matt Damon in Good Will Hunting, Daniel Craig in Casino Royale, and Ryan Gosling in The Notebook. Oh, and looking at Annie’s comment, I second Josh Lucas from Sweet Home Alabama.
Sam Elliot in anything (love the voice)
Pierce Brosnan in James Bond series
George Clooney in anything (yum)
Cary Grant - Bringing up Baby
Hugh Jackman in Someone Like You
First off I’d just like to say The Abyss is one of my all time favorite movies and I haven’t seen it in years. Anyways though…here’s my list.
1. Freddy Price in Down To You - It’s the part at the end when he sings. Ahhhhh
2. Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible and Jerry Mcquire. In Mission Impossible he’s sexy and tuff. In Jerry Mcquire it’s the ‘you complete me’ part.
3. Heath Ledger in 10 Things I hate…especially the singing part. I seem to have a thing for guys who sing.
LLOYD DOBLER. i hardcore crush on lloyd dobler. (john cusack’s character in say anything.)
Tim Robbins in The Shawshank Redemption (not really the moment where he’s crawled through human yuck yuck to his freedom, but more the moment he is on the beach at the end, basking in his freedom all bare foot and HOT!
oh yea, and micheal vartan in just about anything.
Dog looks like she’s having so much fun! My dog is jealous of her “kennel” arrangements!
As for the list (I’ll try to keep it brief):
1. Christian Bale in ANYTHING, but especially “American Psycho” (and, ahem, “Newsies”)
2. Paul Rudd in “Clueless”
3. David Duchovny
4. Andy Garcia
5. Timothy Hutton in “Beautiful Girls”
Once I lost my “first crush on a movie star” virginity, I never gave my heart to another. And, IMHO no one else compares so why bother.
They are both from the same movie actually and even though the movie came out in 1980, they are both still searingly hot and I will watch anything either of them is in.
From “Little Darlings” (cinema magic)
Armand Assante and Matt Dillon.
Smokin’
Ed Harris in “Needful Things”
Michael Keaton in “Batman Returns”
Bruce Willis in “Die Hard”
Tom Berenger in “Major League”
George Clooney in “Out of Sight”
Gary Cooper in “Morocco”
Paul Rudd in “I Could Never Be Your Woman”
Hugh Grant in Notting Hill and
Colin Firth (NOT Hugh Grant!) in Bridget Jones’ Diary
Harrison Ford as Han Solo - especially in the scene where he and Leia kiss. “My hands are dirty.” “I like dirty.” My first movie star boyfriend. *sigh*
The Jane Austen crew - Colin and Alan. Pha and Rowr! Would you mind please, just reading the encyclopedia to me whilst I soak in bubbles?
Angus McFadyen as Colin - Sandra Bullock’s boyfriend in the Ya-ya Sisterhood.
John Cusack as “THE BOYFRIEND” - but not as the guy in High Fidelity. Hated that character.
Tom Arnold as Marty in 9 Months. I know, I know, eww… but he plays such a cute family man! Especially in the scene at the vineyard where he exchanges unpleasantries with Hugh Grant and Jeff Goldblum. “He’s a dick! And you’re an even bigger dick for siding with him over family.” Love that scene.
And GAWD YES Daniel Craig! The eyes. The body. The body and the eyes. The line, “That’s because you know what I can do with my little finger.”
Cary Grant and Jimmy Stewart in The Philadelphia Story. *Sa-igh*
I have more, but these are my go to guys.
Oh Dog, how we love thee. I was wondering where she was hanging during this trip. I LOVE the picture of her in dog park just SITTING SO CLOSE to the people who brought her. Loyal is gooooood.
OK, let’s see I’m going to go with:
John Cusack in Grosse Point Blank
Viggo in A Walk on The Moon
Russell Crowe in Mystery, Alaska (good lord the Dear Abby scene makes me weep just EVERYWHERE)
Tim Roth in the Legend of 1900
Yes, let’s do TV crushes next, please, I’ve got a million of ‘em!
Haven’t read any comments yet - but I doubt anyone has picked my biggest all time crush ever in the history of movie crushes. I’m talking, if this guy shows up at my door, I’d have to think REALLY hard about how well-behaved I’d be.
Ready? The male leads in Crouching Tiger are both seriously heart-melting… but my all time movie crush is the Desert one, Luo, the Dark Cloud. Makes my knees weak just thinkin about him. Yeah. He’s just… wow. Just… Wow. :)
also - there’s a certain appeal to Jason Statham in… well any movie he’s ever been in.
OH this is a GREAT question!
Matthew MacFayden as Mr. Darcy in “Pride and Prejudice”
Ewan McGregor in the late “Star Wars” movies
Ewan McGregor in “Moulin Rouge”
James and Oliver Phelps as the twins in “Harry Potter”
Matthew McConaughey in “Sahara”
Heath Ledgar in “Knights Tale”
Hugh Grant in “Notting Hill”
And I know this isn’t a movie, but I have to put in on here because of my infatuate love…
Hugh Laurie as Dr. House. Do me now with your sarcastic wit, sir.
I was just thinking about this last night!
Ryan Gosling in anything, but come on — “The Notebook”? Swoon.
Cary Elwes in (what else?) “The Princess Bride.” As I wish, indeed.
Matt Damon from “Good Will Hunting”… What IS it about damaged boys that is so appealing?
And finally, George Clooney. In anything. The man could read the phone book and I would sit mesmerized.
omfg - i cannot BELIEVE i am about to divulge this list.
First Movie Crush Ever:
Thomas Ian Nicholas in “Rookie of the Year”
Most Lasting Movie Crush:
Christian Bale - started in “Newsies” but lasted until…well, RIGHT NOW BECAUSE HE IS STILL SO UNBELIEVABLY HOT.
Most Ridiculous/Unexplainable Movie Crush:
D.B. Sweeney in “The Cutting Edge”
I’m seriously blushing right now. So embarassing. I might as well be sitting at my desk naked right now. GAH
Val Kilmer in The Ghost in the Darkness
Jude Law in the Holiday
Michael Schoeffling in 16 Candles
i wonder if dog will want to come home. ;)

Indiana Jones.
1. Johnny Depp in just about anything. (Seems to be the popular answer.)
2. James McAvoy, also in anything, but especially in The Last King of Scottland.
3. And my new one, Michael Cera in Juno. He is so exactly like my husband when we were in high school, he really touched my heart.

*Clive Owen - fabulously sexy in everything, but first fell in love with him in Gosford Park
*Hugh Jackman - mmmm Logan (Wolverine!)
*Heath Ledger - A Knight’s Tale and The Four Feathers
*Edward Norton - he just has to go on the list

Colin Firth– Bridget Jones’s Diary
@Jess, I too had it bad for the fox in Robin Hood at one point in time, and I can still definitely see the attraction. But I’ll see your fox and raise you Justin the rat from the book (not the movie) *Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH*.
p.s.
hi…I read you from whoorl & betternow. I feel all stalker like.
Oooh fun! For some reason I feel the need to break these into categories.
Adolescence:
Christian Slater - Pump Up the Volume

George Clooney
**John Krasinski from the Office
Harrison Ford in pretty much anything, but especially as Han Solo

This list makes me think I’m a sucker for a scoundrel with a rueful smile… Le sigh.
Thanks for the distraction!
Can I second the James McAvoy (he had me after The Last King of Scotland) and Daniel Day Lewis? Damn.
And not movie, but TV: Jonathan Rhys Meyers in the Tudors? SWOON.

Also thank you for posting pics of happy Dog.
My list:
Willem Defoe in Platoon.
Harrison Ford in The Fugitive.

Also love The Clooney in Out of Sight and O Brother. And David Wenham as Faramir in LOTR. And Daniel Craig in Casino Royale.
Ok, I need to stop!

Also…
John Cusak in “Serendipity”
John Travolta in “Phenomenon” and “Broken Arrow”

I can never who was even in a movie, so I’ll skip the game. But - I have to say that Dog appears to be having a fantastic vacation, too. It all works out just right.

I’m going with Harrison Ford in the Jones movies, Whoever-played-Aragorn in the Lord of the Rings movies, and…
…hm. I think it doesn’t get better than that, for me. Manly men with some dust on them. :)
Benecio Del Toro in Traffic, but never again after that.
Gael Garcia Bernal,in ANYTHING EVER but for example, Amorres Perros (sp)
I’m such a lame sucker for Brad Pitt in ANYTHING where he is even remotely naked.
AND lastly, Dax Sheppard in let’s go to prison.
Terrance Howard in anything, but especially in “The Best Man” when he puts the garter on Shelby. Good God I wanted to jump the tv.
Gary Sinise- in “Ransom”- he is so bad but so yummy. I also like him in “The Stand.”
Will Ferrell in “Stranger than Fiction”- he had such a sweetness and vulnerability that is so different from his normal characters. When he sings to Maggie Gyllenhall- ahh..
I have weird tastes, I know.
James Spader ~ Sex, Lies and Videotape
Kevin Costner ~ Bull Durham
George Clooney ~ Anything
Sean Connery ~ Medicine Man
Andrew McCarthey ~ Pretty in Pink
eh. I could go on and on. Movie star crushes are fun.

Gregory Peck as Atticus…sigh…
Brad Pitt in Thelma and Louise (so funny)
Clive Owen in you name it
Christian Slater in True Romance (and only True Romance)
Sean Astin in The Goonies (yup)
Luke in Star Wars
Jim Caviezel in Thin Red Line

Will Ferrell in “Stranger than Fiction”- he had such a sweetness and vulnerability that is so different from his normal characters. When he sings to Maggie Gyllenhall- ahh..
I know this totally cheating because it isn’t from a movie, but I have such crushes on Will Arnett and Jason Bateman because of the show “Arrested Development.” Jason is just adorable as Michael and Will as GOB is so funny and hilarious. He could totally dip me in spicy club sauce.
I have weird tastes, I know.
Judd Nelson in Breakfast Club ~he was the ultimate bad boy
John Cusak in anything
Older movies with Ed Norton
Benicio Del Toro in 21 Grams
Johnny Depp in anything
So glad to know Dog is having a good time! I was wondering about her the other day. So who is taking care of Cat?
I like the geeks:
David Ogden Stiers from M*A*S*H
Patrick Stewart in Star Trek: tng
Still… Michael Schoeffling as Jake in “Sixteen Candles”. Hubba!
Now… George Clooney in anything. Matt Damon in anything. Ashton Kutcher, but only in the movie “A Lot Like Love”.
Kevin Kline in The Big Chill
and my first ever movie crush was that kid in On Golden Pond
Wow. 125 comments before me, eh? That’s a whole lotta hot mens I need to go check out.
Mine are:
Hugh Jackman as the Wolverine.
Thomas Jane as the Punisher.
Orlando Bloom as Legolas (not in Troy when he was a pussy bitch)
Glad you’re having a good time.
John Cusack in, um, The Adventures of Natty Gann. (Ahem.)
Vince Vaughan - Swingers
Brad Pitt - Legends of the Fall
Sam Elliott- Mask
No one has mentioned Robert Downey Jr.? Am I weird?
Jude Law in Everything.
Leo in The Departed.
James McAvoy. Period.
I can’t believe no one said Barry Pepper, or Vin Diesel!
And the kid from Fast and the Furious, Tokyo Drift, with that accent, mmmmm. I’ve liked his voice since American Gothic.
Sean Penn in mystic river. Kevin Bacon in tremors. Yes, the entire cast of 13th warrior. Will Smith in I am legend, those abs when he’s doing pull ups, you could run cars over them. The guy who played Lancelot in Excalibur, so so hot! Brad in Troy and Legends of the Fall. Oh Oh, I almost forgot, Dennis Quaid in the big easy, remember the scene where they are in her bedroom and she says I’m not very good at this? HE was though! LOL.
Colin Firth, who I successfully stalked (in public, not creepily!!) while living in England. Even hotter in person.
Matt
Jake
Eric Bana
For their lovely forearms
George
For his classic-ness
and cuz Emma just reminded me,
Colin Firth! Love him!
Okay, I REFUSED to read the preceeding comments lest my original list be comprimised:
1) Michael Keaton as Batman. (I DON’T KNOW WHY.)
2) Cary Elwes in pretty much anything, but particularly as Wesley/Dread PIrate Roberts in the Princess Bride.
3) William Katt in the tv show “The Greatest American Hero” (I AM LAME, I DO NOT DENY THIS.)
4) Kevin Spacey in American Beauty.
You don’t do tines up? Does your silverware actually get clean tines down? It never even occurred to me that you could put them in tines down.
Huh.
Oh, um, Val Kilmer in Tombstone. What can I say? Consumption suits him.
Uh, this is where I reveal that I’m weird and maybe pervy, but also very GEEKY:
Gary Oldman as Dracula. SWOON. Yes. Oh my God. YESSSSS. And to be clear, I mean the young Dracula, not the one where he’s got the white Princess Leia shit going on around his ears. That would too weird even for me.
Oh, and Donna reminded me that Sean Penn in Mystic River is HOT, people, HOT. In that macho South Boston mafioso kind of way. Oh yes. Super sexy. And Laura Linney makes him hotter, in the way that she plays off of him.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to take a cold shower, oh my hell.
1) John Cusack as Lloyd Dobler (of course!).
2) John Travolta in “Phenomenon”.
3) Paul Newman - anytime, in anything.
4) Jimmy Stewart - ditto.
5) Gene Kelly - ditto to the 10th power.
Casey Affleck — Gone Baby Gone
Edward Norton — 25th Hour
Leonardo DiCaprio (whom I NEVER find attractive, usually) — The Departed
Ryan Gosling — The Notebook because I’m full of sap and cheese

James McAvoy — Becoming Jane
(Wow, my list is pathetically long)
Hmmm…lemme see…
Marky Mark (lawd don’t judge me) The Italian Job & 4 Brothers
George Clooney in ANYTHING!
I’m sure there are more I just can’t remember.
The Rock (The Scorpion King! YUM!)
Vin Diesel (The Fast and The Furious)
Johnny Depp (In ANYTHING)
Brad Pitt (Troy… OMG… that’s all I have to say)
Travis Fimmel (from the TV show Tarzan… OMG… again that’s all I have to say)
Johnny Messner (in Anything)
Dax Shepard in Zathura
Marlon Brando in, well, any of the earlier stuff; man he was hot.
Hugh Jackman as Wolverine. Reow.
Michael Keaton as Batman (he was so tortured!)
Johnny Knoxville - A Dirty Shame
Johnny Depp is redundant, but well, there you go.
my friends and i have played this game - each person has to name their top 5. we all keep each other updated via email when our top 5 changes. lame, i know.
you all are going to think i’m so weird. i can’t help it - i have a thing for non-white guys…
- naveen andrews (sayid on Lost)
- chow yun fat (look up replacement killers on imdb - HOT; although, when he played the gross asian pirate in the last Pirates movie - NOT HOT)
- john cho (harold and kumar)
- kyle chandler (coach on friday night lights (on tv), OMG - the bedroom eyes KILL ME)
- djimon hounsou (so hot - i can’t even imagine what gorgeous babies he and kimora lee simmons would have)
that’s enough. :)
i have a LOT but i’ll stick with the most embarassingand most obvious:
keanu reeves (speed)
and
george clooney (even though he could be my dad).
mmmHMMM
Hello! Long time reader, first time commenter here. (…I feel like the new kid at school *Cough*)
Hmmm… SO many to choose from (does that make me sad? :S) so here’s a few:
1. Colin Firth - Pride and Prejudice
2. Gerrard Butler - pretty much anything. *Swooon*
3. Eric Bana - Troy (That was love right there!)
4. Viggo Mortensen - LOTR Trilogy.
And that’s just to start! :)
Oh, and I can’t tell you how much I agree with your tines down rule. This is coming from someone who uhm, “experienced” the horrors of ‘pointy-things-facing-up-in-dishwasher’ in a way that required surgical removal just under a year ago.
Yeah, I’m klutz, but it’s still a good idea!
(And that was a really, really weird first comment. *Face palm*)
I’d like to second Gary Oldman in Dracula (and as Sid in Sid and Nancy)- what the hell is it with that man? He is walking sex.
And oh hell yes to Ryan Gosling in “The Notebook.”
Ewan MacGregor makes me writhe in my seat and giggle like a little girl. When I see him, I feel like I’m being tickled. It’s a little embarrassing, honestly. Especially for poor Simon, who has to watch me lust so shamelessly after another man.
Can I get a little Thomas Jane from the Punisher? And he wasn’t bad in The Sweetest Thing either… while we’re on topic I’ll take Jason Bateman in anything. Even with the weird beard thing he had going on in the Sweetest Thing. Justin Timberlake could get this too…
I agree with most of your posters (except M McCona-gross, whose arrogance and politics turn me off despite his fine form). My current favorite is Matthew MacFayden in the recent P&P (I’m a long-time CF as Darcy lover too). His second proposal to Lizzie is hands-down the most romantic thing I’ve ever seen. I love, I love, I LOVE it.
Clive Owen for sure! In the latest Elizabeth movie and Shoot’em Up (which I don’t necessarily recommend watching, ugh) but it was worth staring at him for 2 hours, even if he was having gun battles with a baby under his arm. Weird.
Vin Diesel . . . his voice is oh so nice. :) And the muscles don’t hurt the opinion any.
Anyway, love dropping in and reading your blog . . . first time commenting though.
God Bless!
my first comment on your blog - but I couldn’t resist… My list is very diverse :-)
11. Robert Redford - old and young cuz man there’s a guy who ages well! (he was hot in the Last Castle)
10. Brad Pitt - but only as Joe Black
9. Matt Dillon - as early as the Outsiders
8. Jeff Goldblum - I get the strangest looks over this one, but I love his swagger in Independence Day
7. Adam Sandler - the man just makes me laugh!
6. Edward Burns - first fell in love in Brothers McMullen
5. Josh Lucas - Sweet Home Alabama
4. Heath Ledger - especially in 10 things I hate about you
3. Michael Schoffling - Jake in 16 Candles
2. Taye Diggs- in How Stella Got her Groove Back
1. Matthew McCona-HOT in everything ever made (first fell in love watching Boys on the Side)
George Clooney in anything - although he never really plays sexy characters.
Paul Rudd in - and I know this is silly - Clueless! he was just so adorable.
Sorry, I can’t leave out my TV hotties but here’s my list:
*Cary Grant in anything
*Gregory Peck in anything
*George Clooney in anything
*Brad Pitt - Legends of the Fall
*Henry Simmons in anything
*Naveen Andrews - LOST
*Jimmy Smits in anything but SNL
“the ring-being-caught-in-the-door scene in that movie is the very reason JB has a titanium wedding ring”
OMG! This is exactly why we are getting titanium bands as well.
Somewhat chronologically:
Rob Lowe - Outsiders and that movie with Meg Tilly, also the West Wing
Robert Redford - The Way We Were, Out of Africa
Kevin Costner - Bull Durham, Revenge
Mel Gibson - Tequila Sunrise, maybe Lethal Weapon 2 except for the hair
Matthew McConaughey - A Time to Kill (Hot & Hott!)
Colin Firth - Mr. Darcy, ’nuff said
Soon to be - Jake Gyllenhaal (Oh those eyes)
Shhh, don’t tell - Daniel Radcliffe (I know! Harry Potter! I can’t help it.)
First, I always put my forks tines up, but I HATED when people put knives blades up. Then I realized that my dishwasher sucked and I pretty much have to put my butter knives blade up. To solve the stabbing problem, I just remove the utensil tray and lay it on the counter when I’m putting the dishes away.
And now onto the important stuff:
Josh Hartnett in Lucky Number Slevin. He spends a great deal of the movie wearing only a towel around his waist.
Kevin Costner in Bull Durham, particularly the kitchen sex scene when he throws the bowl into the sink right before doing it on the kitchen table.
Not a movie, but John Corbett as Aiden in season 4 of Sex and the City. This is when he comes back and has short hair and doesn’t dress like a lumberjack anymore. HOT.
Orlando Bloom as Legolas in Lord of the Rings. I don’t mind him in Pirates (speaking of which I just bought myself a notebook for meetings with Will Turner’s face plastered all over the front of it and it was only a buck! I won’t talk about how I squealed in the store when I found it.)
Also, Viggo Mortenson as Aragorn.
Hayden Christensen in Life as a House. Great movie, if you’ve never seen it.
Nope, not too many more. I’m predictable.
Oh! The volleyball scene in Top Gun. Of the three shirtless men anyway. Swoon!
Oh! And I forgot Patrick Dempsey in Grey’s Anatomy. Not a movie, but so what.
Also, Eric Dane, the guy who plays Dr. McSteamy/Sloan. God I hate that nickname, but damn if he’s not some fine looking man-flesh.
Mine will be variations on a theme but here you go anyway…
Gerard Butler in P.S I Love You
Colin Firth in anything
Johnny Depp in Pirates and Chocolat
Colin Farrell in SWAT
Clive Owen in Closer
Yum yum yum! :)
What a freaking awesome question.
* Chris O’Donnell in “Mad Love” and again in “Circle of Friends”. Such a cutie.
* Tom Cruise in “Top Gun”. Guilty pleasure.
* Mel Gibson in all of the “Lethal Weapon” movies. Love that smile.
* Brad Pitt in *Se7en*. Oh yes.
And not a movie, but man was I in TOTAL love with Kirk Cameron on “Growing Pains”. For real.
Sundry, I just realized you didn’t mention Clive Owen. You’ve swooned over him in the past… what gives?! :o)
I’d have to ditto an awful lot of the above list (funny, I’d always thought I was alone in lusting after Alan Rickman), but a few I haven’t seen mentioned already are:
-Mel Gibson in The Year of Living Dangerously
-Tom Cruise (cringe) in Top Gun (but nothing since), especially the scene in the elevator, you could cut the sexual tension with a chainsaw.
-Gerard Butler as the Phantom (of the Opera)
I have to second donna on Dennis Quaid in the Big Easy, that scene was HOT.
Always fancied Keanu Reeves, not for any specific role, just to stand him in the corner of my room to be looked at.
But my very, very first, deepest ever movie crush was Christopher Walken as the tragic Nicky in The Deer Hunter. And that man still has it going, imo.
oh…one more from me!
Josh Duhamel in “win a date with Tad Hamilton”…can we talk about when he took his shirt off!! Also very yummy in Las Vegas!
You are very welcome, we love DOG now.
She will be happy to see you in a few days but is welcome anytime!!!
In anything and everything:
Harrison Ford
Brad Pitt
Jake Gyllenhaal
James McAvoy
I’m sure this says something disturbing about me psychologically but:
- Matt Damon in the Bourne trilogy
- Ryan Gosling in The Notebook (I know, BARF)
- Alan Rickman in anything (My favorites are bumbling or seriously evil roles. God, I just love his voice!)
- Jamie Bamber as Lee “Apollo” Adama on BSG (I know it’s not a movie, but I had to include him)
You seriously opened up a can of worms with this one…hope you’re not bored anymore. I am 40 and my first movie crush was Humphry Bogart. I know, WEIRD, but he was very handsome in a rugged kind of way. My friends had Tom Cruise posters in their rooms and I had Boggie! (still hate Tom Cruise…weird teeth)
I like the oldies, Harrison Ford, Mark Harmon, John Travolta (especially in Phenomenom…but my all time true movie love is John Cusack! I love him and my husband has just had to come to terms with the fact that if he walked in the door and wanted to take me away I’d go in second : )
Matthew McConoughy - The Wedding planner
Mark Wahlburg - Boogie Nights & Rock Star
Philip Seymour Hoffman - Almost Famous.
The two biggest crushes off the top of my head -
Cary Elwes in pretty much anything - but especially “The Princess Bride”
and
Daniel Day-Lewis in “The Last of the Mohicans”
I realize you probably won’t read this far but here goes:
Up to about age thirteen I had a HUGE crush on Elija Woods (I think he’s about a year older than me).
During my teenaged years I moved on to Chris O’Donnel. Especially as Dartanjan (sp) in The Three Musketeers.
After Batman and Robin, I had to let that go. My most recent crush was Ewan McGreggor. I still think he’ll make a fantastic James Bond some day.
Linda…aw, can I tell you? I thought I was the only one who crushed on Ed Harris. Most of the time, people say “Ed who?” For me, it was him as Charlie in “Sweet Dreams” - just fell in love with his charming and ornery ways with Patsy. I’ve been enamored of him ever since.
As long as I’m spilling it, I’ve always had a thing for James Spader for some reason - he’s captivating onscreen I think.
And doesn’t everyone love Anthony Michael Hall, if only secretly?
…I think I’m dating myself here.
I will second Alan Rickman, Robert Sean Leonard in “Dead Poets’ Society”, George Clooney (whenever, wherever), and Phillip Seymour Hoffman.
Also, Tom Everett Scott in “That Thing You Do” (he was the drummer), Jim Sturgess in “Across the Universe” (ahhh, singing), and John Travolta in “Grease”.
Finally, in re: the silverware - I too used to believe in tines down only, but a friend who owned a restaurant said that tines up is required for them to be clean (and the health department requires that.)
Matt Damon, The Bourne Identity
Toby Maguire, Spiderman
Jake Gyllenhaal, The Day After Tomorrow
Harrison Ford, The Fugitive and The original Indiana Jones
Kevin Costner, Dances with Wolves
Daniel Day-Lewis, The Last of the Mohicans
Adam Beach, Smoke Signals
Ok. I have to stop there, thought I’m sure I could go on. I’m all worked up thinking about all these hot dudes in movies! ;)
Isn’t Valria the best!? She has been generous enough to watch my pup on occasion and I practically have to hang bacon from my neck to get Sophie into the car to come home with me! ;)
Oh yeah…just one more and I can’t believe I left him out.
From The Mummy - Oded Fehr.
Seriously, google image this guy if you aren’t
familiar with his name.
Oy.
Oh, this is a fun one!
1. Mark Ruffalo in “30 Going On 30″….he’s so darn cute that I named our second son Matthew so we could call him “Matty” after his character—-I don’t think my husband knows this!
2. Eric Bana….in “Troy.” Not so much in “The Incredible Hulk,” but oh my gosh SOOOOO much in “Troy.”
3. Jude Law in “The Talented Mr. Ripley”
And…Jason Patric in “Lost Boys”
Oh I need to go watch me some old DVDs now!
Glad your trip is going well!
james woods in “immediate family” (before he turned into a dirty old man)
james spader from “the secertary”- he can spank me any day
jim carrey- just because he looks like he would make a good fun boyfriend
tommy lee jones- back in, like, 1972, before he dried up and shriveled
tommy walsh- from the bbc series “ground force”. once i finish with him, i can send him outside to dig some holes and do some gardening then i will give him a pop-tart and send him home
robert downey jr. when he is not too strung out
matthew mccoughney, but he must wear a shirt
owen wilson, who must wear a shirt also
kid rock- just because
Jude Law in Talented Mr Ripley
Andy Garcia in When a Man Loves a Woman
Andrew McCarthy in St Elmo’s Fire
Jude Law in The Holiday
Val Kilmer in Top Gun
Ashton Kutcher in Just Married
Sighhhhh….
Another Wild at Heart fan! I think there are only two of us on the planet. I *heart* Nicolas Cage, in anything.
Also, Jude Law, in anything.
Also, although they are not movie stars per se, I have out-of-nowhere sex dreams about Jon Stewart and Henry Rollins.
1) Daniel Day Lewis as “The Butcher” in Gangs of New York. I have such a thing for tall, striped pants and the men who can wear them.
2) Milla Jovovich in “The Fifth Element” because, COME ON! she’s the perfect being. And naked, mmmmmm…
Hmmm…
Jeremy Piven anytime, anywhere
Jim Sturgess in Across the Universe
Colin Firth in Love Actually
Surely I’m missing several people, but, those were the first to pop to mind!
Janet just reminded me — Mark Wahlberg! Yes! I can’t believe I left him off my list.
MMM…Johnny Depp. I remember crushing on him at age 12 when he was in 21 Jump Street. And he is hotter every time I see him. My fave roll is Edward Scissorhands…or pretty much any Tim Burton movie he’s in. But the first POTC made me want to throw my panties at the screen.
Robert Downey Jr. - yummy in Good Night and Good Luck, Wonder Boys, A Scanner Darkly…
George Clooney - the grayer the hair the hotter he gets. But I especially loved him in the Oceans movies.
David Bowie in Labyrinth. I see he’s been mentioned here once already, so I’m not alone in that! :D
I don’t even know where to begin … Joaquin Phoenix in anything (damn!), Matt Damon in the Bourne movies, Mark Wahlberg in Fear and everything else … BUT, the most intense crush I ever had on an actor was when I was about 10 years old and I saw TIM which I believe was Mel Gibson’s second paid job after that surfing movie. I became obsessed with the character - I didn’t really care to see Mel in anything else, but I couldn’t get enough of that movie - I remember crying when just reading the name Tim in a magazine about three weeks later. I remember that like yesterday even though it must have been 25 years ago. It was my first hint of what I thought love was as a ten year-old.
Mark Ruffalo in “13 going on 30″
Brendan Frasier in “School Ties”
Dermot Mulrooney in “My Best Friends Wedding”
Kevin Kostner in “Message in the Bottle”
Antonio Banderas in “Zorro”
Christian Bale in “Batman Begins”
Eric Bana in “Munich”
Zack Braff in Garden State, Oliver Martinez in Unfaithful, Ewan McGregor in anything, anytime, anywhere.
*Sam Elliot in anything and everything- Seriously, what IS it about that man? He’s not even that good looking… It’s beyond me!
*Hugh Grant in Briget Jones Diary - It’s a sickness, I think.
*Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones
*Richard Gere (ack! gag!) in Pretty Woman
Okay, three more because I cannot be stopped!
Matthew Broderick in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
Ron Livingston in Office Space
And, not a movie, but Chris Noth in Sex and the City
In looking twice at my own addition to your request, I think I have pinpointed my problem in/with relationships.
My list is as follows:
Nic Cage in “Valley Girl”
Aiden Quinn in “Restless”
Richard Gere in “Looking for Mr Goodbar”
Frederic Andrei in “Diva”
Marco Hofschnieder in “Europa, Europa”
Daniel Day Lewis in “My Beautiful Laundrette”
Viggo Mortensen in “A history of violence”
Bill Pullman in “Zero Effect”
Peter Firth in “Letter to Brezhnev”
Jean-Mark Barr in “The big blue”
Rupert Friend in “Mrs Palfrey at the Claremont”
David Keith in “Independence Day” (the original one)
Dennis Quaid in “Breaking Away”
Jack Black in “High Fidelity”
Gael Garcia Bernal in “Amores Perros”
Javier Bardim in well anything!!!
David Straitharm in any film directed by John Sayles
Okay, you might get the jist of the problem
Paul Rudd in Clueless (still can’t believe other people have this one)
Kiefer Sutherland in 1969 (unending teenage crush)
Harrison Ford in Star Wars
Uh oh — I need and addendum to my previous list (and while I’m at it, yes, I’m aware “The Notebook” is pure shmaltz but when it’s pouring down rain and they’re on the dock and he yells “It STILL isn’t over” and then grabs her? Come ON — that sort of obsess-y teenage love? Yi!)
Okay, so addendum:
1) Can’t believe I forgot Campbell Scott in “Singles” — “YOU belong. WITH. ME.”
2) Then entire lead ensemble cast of “The Right Stuff.” LOVE LOVE LOVE astronauts :)
