I recently had a debate with DH about who I would have on my 'Top 5' List of favourite male actors...you know, the ones that make you melt, feel warm and special and make your forget about all your worries...
He could easily name his 'Top 5' females but I struggled to find my 'Top 5' males.
So in an endeavour to expand my potential list, I recently ran it past a few people and I think I have the inital one:

1. Robert Redford
2. Richard Gere
3. Hugh Grant
4. Colin Firth (other guy out of B Jones' Diary)
5. Ewan McGregor (a roughie but worthy kinda)

Now, no laughing, but can anyone make any other suggestions that could improve mine? I had a few shockers before upgrading to a few of these.

Hey the other night; we didn't even come up with Richard Gere did we?? Um, I am still saying Grant from Sunrise.



Thanks

Rohan & Harley 1 Oct 02

Richard doesn't have to be on your list Rohan, but he can 'Pretty Woman' me anyday ;p
Oooh, I forgot about Grant from Sunrise, but he is a tad short for me and I would have to stoop all the time when I was around him
Thanks for the good suggestion though...
Kath

hugh grant - *hack fooey* (the sound of me spitting) o:

but i'll have to think about possible replacements... lol

PS: i'm with you on ewan

No, I agree - serious Male shortage

But if I was trying I'd say

1: Colin Firth (especially in Pride & Predjudice)
2: Josh Hartnett (out of Pearl Habour)
3: Peirce Brosnan (have I even spelt that right?)
4: leonardo Dicaprio (only sometimes)
5: Richard Gere (he can 'Pretty Women' me any day too)

Ok, come on ladies there has got to be better then this - ha ha ha ha!

My mind has gone a blank I'm sure I'll wake at 3am with other names but i'd definitely have johnny depp and ben stiller.

oooh i know - Robert Downey Junior, sans drugs

and, has anyone seen that terribly soppy movie with david ducovny and minnie driver? now HE makes you feel all warm and fuzzy and mmmmmmmmmmmm in that movie (though he did nothing for me in the x files)

Oooh, these suggestions are getting good...
Please keep them coming and my dreams are sure to improve ;p

Kath

oh, and another - the guy in the weird movie with julia roberts and jude (blerg) law, the one they were considering for james bond...

hang on, i'll have to imdb it....
Clive owen http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0654110/

can you tell i like em tall dark and handsome?

of course sarah, cusack and damon!

Ooh, I like these sorts of lists! In no particular order:

Sean Connery
Ewan MacGregor
Nicolas Cage
The guy who played 'Duckman'in Pretty in Pink (can't remember the name...)
Erm, this is hard, isn't it? Probably David Wenham!

1. Johnny Depp!!!! I cant believe only two people had him in their list!!!
2. Joaquin Phoenix
3. Ian Somerhalder (I have a recent obsession, he is Boone on LOST...)
4. Orlando Bloom - cheesy but I love him
5. Hmmm... mind blank... I dont think I have a fifth Johnny is enough

Ok, hold off the sniggers, this is my list until someone else further down mentions someone I forgot.

1. Ewan McGregor
2. Johnny Depp (although he's very short and has tiny hands)
3. John Cusack
4. Hugh Jackman

Hmm 5th one is hard, either Colin Firth or Robert Downey Jnr, boy I've loved him since Less than Zero...lol

edited to say Duckie in PiP was Jon Cryer, now in Two and a half men

Cheers,

Nicola

No no no.. Richard Gere can go on my list as long as it is from Pretty Woman.

And Grant will wear Stillettos (i just know he will; he wore a cheerleaders uniform once).



Thanks

Rohan & Harley 1 Oct 02

oh and heath ledger... and nicola, hugh jackman... love your work there!

Good call on Hugh Jackman!!

Sorry Lara but I did laugh about Jackie Chan

OK, heres one that some may find laughable - Bruce Willis!

Sorry Lara...gotta laugh but he's funny though ;p . Here's mine:

1. Richard Gere
2. Pierce Brosnan
3. Hugh Jackman
4. Harrison Ford
5. Dustin Hoffman

Is that a good lists ;p ?? Next please...

Yani

Julian McMahon...Very yummy
you can keep the other 4, he would keep me entertained for a while!

speaking of famous actors, my inlaws who are cleaners got offered a job working for someone VERY famous, they start next week.

How could I forget about Julian.. he was super delicious in Charmed. Michelle, you are not having him all to yourself.

Thanks

Rohan & Harley 1 Oct 02

Don't forget the infamous Tom Williams.......that bod!
Yum! Yum!

DD Brittney Jade 88
DS Jesse Darren 91
DD Brydie Jean 00
DD Delaney Grace 02

Oh, I just realised that I have to change my list and drop Ewan...I left off one of my youthful favourites and I can't forget my obsession with him, I even have the Mattel doll made of his most famous character...

I am talking about...LUKE PERRY...(aka Dylan McKay from Beverley Hill 90210). The movies he acted in were real bad, but he had me completely through my high school days...

BTW, I notice no one has Tom Cruise on their list, what has happened to the old Tommy boy?

Kath, dropping Ewan? Are you mad!! lol

ooh no hang on, less of him to share around, no no you're right, you should have Luke Perry on YOUR list

I have to remain faithful to Luke, he has given me so many happy memories... ;p

I can't go past the accent, really annoys me when he has to do an american accent, couldn't watch Nightwatch without cringeing.

Speaking of which, Johnny Depp in Finding Neverland, a perfect combo, Johnny and a scottish accent...Bliss!!

Did someone mention Tom Williams? Do I really have to pick four more? LOL.

Okay, here goes in no particular order:

Tom Williams
Rob Thomas (from Matchbox 20)
Jay Kay (aka Jamiroquai)
Vincent D'Onfrio (L&O: Criminal Intent)

and last but definitely not least .......

My Husband

Cheers,
Helen.

hmmmmmmm.....
Olivier Martinez
Colin Firth
John Travolta
Hugh Jackman
and i cant believe i am admitting to this....
Hugh Riminton- sad but true!

Hugh Rimington, as in the now CNN anchor, ex channel 9 reporter????? If so, just had a good laugh, but what a good choice! He's quite a good selection...any more?

Harrison Ford, how could I forget him? OK, take David Wenham off and put HF in for me!

Mine would be Johnny Depp at numbers 1-5, but I guess if I had to dig a little deeper:
1. Johnny Depp
2. Ewan McGregor
3. Robert Downey jr (also a fan from L.T.Z days)
4. Gary Oldman
5. Vincent D'Onofrio or Matthew Modine (it's a tie)

I've always liked the old crusties too, Jack Nicholson, Sean Connery, Harrison Ford etc.

(and I had a huge crush on Bruce Willis when I was just a girl).

I haven't seen Brad Pitt mentioned here yet. Has he lost his shine??

Mel

ok here's my list....

In the category of "Toy Boy" : Jai from Queer Eye (ok so it'll never happen but I can't help but look!)



In the category of "Man my Age": Captain Feathersword AND John Corbett (aka "Chris" from Northern Exposure" and also My Big Fat Greek Wedding) AND Joseph Fiennes (aka "Will" in Shakespeare in love)


AND



AND



In the category of "Geriatric Love": Richard Gere



ooooh that was fun!

Ooh Joseph Fiennes and John Corbett ... how could I ever dare to forget them?

Hey, can I suggest one that's no longer with us? In his heyday, CARY GRANT. Okay, I admit it, I'm a sucker for a good old black and white occasionally.

Cheers,
Helen.

This person is not an actor but Kelly Slater (Surfer) very hot and a very nice person, just adds something different to your list...

Lol Eilleen at Captain Feathersword....but thats only 'cause im a bit partial to Ben Murray who is the blonde Wiggles Dancer.
and Yes charling that would be Hugh.

Nah sorry Julian McMahon is mine.
he is extremely easy on the eyes in ' Nip/Tuck'

noticed no one said Russell Crowe either.

Oh Mel, how could I forget the Gary Oldman!!!

Can we make it a top 10 instead? I've got a bit of a soft spot for both Bruce Willis too.

Brad Pitt is a little too pretty for me, but I love seeing him roughed up a bit like in Kalifornia and Snatch. Did you know he's in LTZ too as an extra.

Helen I love Cary Grant too, always seemed like such a gentleman.

oooh yes, i'll go along with gary oldman and captain feathersword too

and if we're going to do singers then i'll have rob thomas please

And I'd take Jeff Buckley (if he was still alive -sob-).
Brad Pitt must have been about 10 when he was in LTZ!?? Actually, he's in his 40s now isn't he?? Probably explains the younger woman, died blonde hair thing!

Mel

Well this was really hard as there are just so many spunks out there but I have managed to narrow it down to my top 5 :-)

Danny DeVito
Michael Jackson(current look)
David Gest(Liza Minelli's ex)
Barry Humphreys
Johnny Howard

Heaps more out there but I am just getting started...hehe


Laura-mum to Nicholas, Ashleigh, Benjamin

I just thought of somebody else but I have to find his name..

Gary Sweet, yummo!

LauraT, your list made me just spit out a mouthful of coffee...good work ;p

I would have to say Colin Firth and Ewan Mcgreggor (but only in some movies)... from that list...

To add to it...

Alan Rickman

And most do not agree with me on this one but I think Tim Curry has something about him.

OH yeah! I've always liked both Alan Rickman and Tim Curry! I might not put either of them on my 'sexy' list, but they are great actors!!
Mel

Eye-candy only: I'd take Tom Cruise, Keanu Reeves and Joseph Fiennes any day, as long as they don't try to think/talk (Tom Cruise's latest PND blunder...).
Alex.

Ok have been thinking about this for a few days.

My top 5 are:
1. Colin Firth (I'm another P&P tragic. But he is so gorgeous)
2. Johnny Depp (He has been in my list since 21 Jump Street o: ).
3. John Cusak
4. John Corbett (I love his voice)
5. Jack Black (He just cracks me up)

Kath: Really Robert Redford at # 1. Isn't he like really old??? Oh well if he takes your worries away

Susana & DH Chris[size=1] aka GoateeCat
DD Delia Jade 13/11/02 & DS Darcy Cole 2/11/04

Mmmmm I have a thing for men called John

Yeah but I LOVE him in The Great Gatsby and the one with Demi Moore, completely slipped my mind at the moment.

Kath- Quite offended that you think my choices would almost choke you. There is more to a man that looks, sweetie.


(NB Please take this as a joke )

Ok, so I dont live in Canberra anymore but I still lurk occasionally.

I had a good laugh at this, especially when I saw Dino-Mite's pick of Grant Denyer.

I know him and his whole family very well, and I might just have to head him over here to read it himself!! Yes he is very short, and to think Channel 10 gave him the flick! Don't think he'd wear the high heels, but you never know he may have a secret fetish. Oh and by the way he does have a lovely girlfriend.

Ok, I'll finish lurking.

Hey Kerry, nice to see you dropping in on us former neighbours of yours, lol. How are your gorgeous kids? Go on, shock me - how old are they? I hope life's treating you well now.

So tell me, is Grant more like yours and my height? In that case Rohan you would tower over the poor guy, lol.

Cheers,
Helen.

Hi Helen

Yep, he's the same height as his mum and I know for sure she is 5'1". Definately a short ass.

I'm doing good, hard being a single mum to twins, but hey them is the breaks! Am planning a trip to Canberra before the end of the year, hopefully. Oh and they are 3 1/2, and start kindy end of this year!
