> [@Guinastasia](#): > > Dita Von Teese and Kate Winslet. LOVE Dita’s fashion sense. (I’m a vintage clothing addict) Funnily enough (and though still a hetero guy), although I don’t find Dita personally arousing I love looking at her in her various outfits. She’s like a work of art. ---

Unapologetically gay for [Vincent Perez](http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Vincent_P%C3%A9rez_Cannes.jpg). Also [Romain Duris](http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fichier:Romain_Duris_66%C3%A8me_Festival_de_Venise_10.jpg), although I think I’m more in love with the character he played in _Le Péril Jeune_. Josh Hartnett, maybe. He’s got a purdy smile. ---

Straight guy here, but if I ever did go gay, it would be for Sean Bean - particularly as he was in filming the Sharpe series. Now that’s a good looking guy!

I’m a straight woman, and I find most traditionally beautiful women (e.g. most young actresses in American movies and T.V.) attractive. The two who really stand out for me are Juliette Binoche and Salma Hayek. [sub]Interesting. When I pull both of them up in Google images, they look very similar. I guess that’s my female “type”.[/sub] ---

I can certainly identify with my wife’s (overt) attraction to Daniel Craig. On the non-famous side, one time we were having a problem with our furnace, so the electric company sent over a guy to look at it. When I opened the door there was a guy standing there that was so handsome, it made me think it was a setup for a bad porn movie. He stepped into the doorway and I realized he was about 6’3", broad shouldered, chiseled face, and a tool belt. I understood why women are drawn to that fantasy. He’s one person I’ve met in real life that, if my wife threw herself at him right there in front of me, I’d sit back and watch them make sweet monkey love. He was an impressive specimen. ---

How about “Men You Wished You Looked Like”? I would be quite pleased to look like Chris Hemsworth. And my wife would be _ecstatic_. [Dan Tyminski](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Tyminski) of Allison Krause’s band Union Station provided the singing voice for George Clooney in _O Brother, Where Art Thou_. When I saw him in concert, he introduced the song with the story about telling his wife that movie viewers were going to hear his voice coming out of George Clooney’s face. She replied “That’s my fantasy!” ---

> [@Acsenray](#): > > In several of Bean’s roles, his character has died before the end of the story. But it’s an exaggerated notion. Yes, that. Bean is often cast in supporting roles (or as the villain) and then gets killed off. See: _Patriot Games, Lord of the Rings_, _Equilibrium_, that James Bond film he was in, _Outlaw_, _The Hitcher_… _Game of Thrones_ too of course. He even got killed off in the video game \*Oblivion \*! It’s become something of a meme. ---
