Just For Fun

Yesterday I got an email for a Google alert I have set for a particular actor. It took me to a blog where someone listed 10 actors that they would watch in anything. So, I thought I’d do the same thing. I don’t think I can come up with ten though.

James McAvoy. I’d heard of James because of Wanted and thought he was amazing eye candy, but it wasn’t until I watched Becoming Jane that I fell in love with him. Now I own Penelope, Atonement, Wanted (didn’t care for, but James was great), Starter For 10, Rory O’Shea Was Here, Wimbledon, Becoming Jane and The Last King Of Scotland. I need to get Narnia. He’s absolutely brilliant and seems like a great bloke.

Mark Ruffalo. You know, I don’t know how I discovered Mark; I just know I love him. Although I don’t care for all of his films (that Reece Witherspoon one), he’s always fantastic. Some of my favorties include, We Don’t Live Here Anymore, Last Castle, You Can Count On Me, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and My Life Without Me.

Cillian Murphy. My love for Cillian started with 28 Days Later and is still going strong today. Just like the previously mentioned actors, Cillian is versatile and brilliant. Some of my fave Cillian flicks include, 28 Days Later, Breakfast on Pluto, Disco Pigs, The Wind That Shakes The Barley and the insanely funny, Watcing The Detectives.

Ryan Gosling. I really believe that Ryan is one of the most, if not the most, underrated actors in the business. Even his sub-par movies, he is stellar. Like Mark Ruffalo, I am not sure where I first saw Ryan, but I’ve been hooked on him for years. Favortie films include Half Nelson, Lars and The Real Girl, The Slaughter Rule, United State of Leland, The Believer and of course, The Notebook. Is there a role Ryan can’t play?

Okay, so I came up with four. There are many actors that I love; Joaquin Phoenix, Johnny Depp, Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Christian Bale, Sean Penn and Jude Law, but none of them are an instant draw for me. I’ll usually see most of their movies, but I would watch James, Mark, Cillian and Ryan read the phone book. I do believe they are the future of Hollywood, and if so, Hollywood is in great hands.

Long time, no talk

Not sure anyone but the spammers still visit the site, but oh well. Going to try and start it back up. No more politics here though, created a different blog for that.

Anyway, since we last chatted, I FINALLY met Emerson Hart…twice! The first time was by sheer luck. I checked my email that morning and it so happened Tonic was playing a show in town that day. Was able to get a photo pass the very last minute and when I chickened out on going up to him, I paid my son $5 to bring him over. He was absolutely fantastic. The second time was just a couple of weeks ago in Raleigh. Confessed to him about what I had been doing on this site (which he knew about) and he loved it. Adore him.

Let’s see…what else. Oh, I am now unemployed. Long story I’d rather not get into. But I’ve got to take the summer off with Eli and just hang out. Hoping to go back to work in October. Turned 32 yesterday, but didn’t do anything special. Oh, and I’m having gastric bypass on the 27th. Yep. Big changes.

Anyway, that’s all for now. I promise to check in more regularly!

Also going to be on The Rock Boat X in January! YAY! Been active with photography. Finally selling some prints and charging for fashion sessions.
