[/QUOTE] Oh, please, BARNEY would be a better James Bond than that Craig guy. Clive Owen was definitely yummarific in [Gosford Park](http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0280707/Ss/0280707/DISC1-19copy.jpg.html?hint=tt0280707), but his character was so creepy in [Closer](http://www.imdb.com/gallery/ss/0376541/Ss/0376541/SG-03.jpg.html?path=gallery&path_key=0376541) that I need a bit to get that out of my head. I really regret not seeing _Children of Men_ in the theater. It’s on my rental queue! ---

Genetics is the world’s most bizarre crap shoot. Isabella Lloyd Webber, whose two parents are not going to win any beauty contests, is not only destined to be extremely wealthy, but she’s growing into quite a beauty. I saw her at Phantom a couple of years back. The only photo I can find of the family is a couple of years old, but [here](http://www.voltegyszeregycsapat.hu/Actual/Pictures/Webber_kitunt/Webber_kitunt01_h.html) they are at the Hungarian opening of The Beautiful Game. ---

I also think it’s incredibly cruel to pick on the offspring of celebs. The celebs themselves, one could argue, bring it upon themselves by going out into the spotlight. But their kids? What the fuck-they didn’t choose to be famous. Like everyone picking on Chelsea Clinton, because they didn’t like her father’s politics. She was _13_. Which is probably one of the most insecure, toughest ages for a girl to be. Of course, she had the last laugh-she’s pretty hot now, and Rush Limbaugh is just a fat, thrice-divorced drug addict. ETA: not having seen the _Bond_ films, I can’t comment on that. But Daniel Craig is pretty hot. AND he wants Bond to have a guy-on-guy fling. THAT’s pretty damned sexy if you ask me. ---

Isabella LLoyd Weber not only has a lovely mother, she is a little beauty herself. Andrew is not a looker himself, but damn I love his musicals. ---

**Guin** I totally agree. Kids are off limits until they enter the business. And Chelsea is a cutie. So is Tori. So is Karenna Gore Schiff. And, yes, so are the Bush twins. I’m sorry I cannot agree on the Craig guy. I don’t like him. Maybe you’ve heard I like Clive Owen as Bond. Oh well, I’m not in charge. ---

[QUOTE=WhyNot] Alright, I’ll out the elephant in the living room: But it’s not going to go that way for you, I fear. That level of discourse requires a comfortability with all the trashtalkers involved that we (okay, _I_, I can’t speak for others) don’t feel towards you right now. All you’re going to get is hostility and resistance. And, frankly, you’re trying too hard and it’s a little embarrassing. [/QUOTE] Oh…I can see your point. It’s a fair point to make. I’ll not open any new discussion threads for a while, unless I have a valid question. No hard feelings, please. 🆒 ---

I saw her in **Hostage**. She played the daughter of Bruce Willis’ character in the film. I thought she looked nice in the movie. Not unattractive at all. ---

[QUOTE=WhyNot] I’m totally sincere in my wish that she finds happiness, but I feel a pit of anger and ick in my stomach when I see her username (the new one) and it \*does \*influence how I read her posts and how I respond, even to a seeming fluff thread. She did that, and she deserves to know it. [/QUOTE] If you feel she deserves to know it, then let her know in either private communication, in an appropriate Pit thread, or in a thread where she’s soliciting such opinions. What doesn’t need to happen, however, is a hijack in unrelated threads just so you can bring up her past actions. If, for some reason, you do not feel you can post in a **MizGrand** without bringing up (unrelated) past disagreements, then it’s wiser to stay out of her threads. This, of course, applies to everyone–not just **WhyNot**. ---

I think that the ladies here arent’ looking at Ashton from an 18 y/o POV. Which is um, gosh should I say it(?) NORMAL. I personally find [Matthew](http://www.imdb.com/gallery/granitz/2919/MatthewMcC_Cohen_4742707_400.jpg.html?path=pgallery&path_key=McConaughey%2C%20Matthew&seq=48) incredibly hot. And yes, he’s a young’un to my 41 years, I’m sure. I just can’t wrap my brain around my mom, say, doin’ a guy that’s less than 10 years older than myself. ---

Rumer’s beautiful. She has shitty (or at least, worrying) taste in friends, but she’s beautiful. [QUOTE=WhyNot] Oh, please, BARNEY would be a better James Bond than that Craig guy. [/QUOTE] :eek: Oh my, no. Did you actually SEE **Casino Royale**? All the way through? If you did, then I’ll accept your (sadly, wrong-headed) opinion, but if you didn’t, please get back to me after you’ve seen it. The trailers and still images did NOT reflect how charismatic and hot Daniel Craig was in that role. He was perfect. Not that I disagree about Clive Owen. He’s an amazing actor, and very very yummy. And yes, he would have made a good Bond, but not _better_ than Craig. [QUOTE=WhyNot] I really regret not seeing _Children of Men_ in the theater. It’s on my rental queue! [/QUOTE] It’s so good, I’m sure you’ll love it. (and btw, I loved your ‘other’ post). ---

When I saw her [in Hostage](http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2088/2881/1600/host_Image5.jpg), I thought she was homely. But a lot of teenagers are. I think she’s grown more attractive since then.
