I thought she was a riot on Arliss. She’s got it all going on…comedy, cute-osity, drama (as long as it’s not 100% heavy). I adore her. ---

I thought she was very believable in [Dancing at the Blue Iguana](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0217355/) . I also saw the Runaway movie - [The Diary of Evelyn Lau](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106717/) . I hated it, but I also hated the book, so I don’t think it had anything to do with her performance. I think she is pretty, although in an unconventional way and an excellent actress! ---

For reasons I do not fully understand, I find her sexy as hell. Part of it may be that her last name is _Oh_. ---

She’s been in some excellent Canadian films, including [Last Night](http://imdb.com/title/tt0156729/) (a drama about the end of the world) and [Double Happiness](http://imdb.com/title/tt0109655/), for which she won the Juno Award (Canada’s Oscar) for Best Actress. ---

[QUOTE=Mangosteen] OK, but do you think she is as hot as Sung Hi Lee? [http://www.askmen.com/women/galleries/model/sung-hi-lee/picture-2.html](http://www.askmen.com/women/galleries/model/sung-hi-lee/picture-2.html) Come on, seriously. [/QUOTE] Based on the photos you provided, I find Sandra Oh hotter. Someone mentioned Ziyi Zhang, _she’s_ hot (still, it’s hard to compare them because of the age difference and also the difference in their personalities). ---

[QUOTE=kushiel] Us girls feel pretty damn bad on that front too. Jet Li and Jackie Chan ain’t exactly good eyecandy. It’s all about Russell Wong and Daniel Henney for me. [/QUOTE] I dunno, as a straight guy, my standard for judging other guys is “if I woke up tomorrow and looked like him, would I be bummed out?” and Jet Li is a definite No. ---

[QUOTE=Beware of Doug] Part of it may be that her last name is _Oh_. [/QUOTE] Maybe because, instead of saying God’s name during orgasm, she says her own? 🙂 ---

[/QUOTE] And Ken Watanabe, B.D. Wong, “Harold” from Harold and Kumar… I don’t think any woman compares to Gong Li in her prime, but she was a cool beauty and Sandra Oh is quite different! She is the best part of Grey’s Anatomy because of her and the part they are writing for her. ---

[/QUOTE] I wanted to mention **Lanst Night** , too. I loved that movie. Too bad you can’t find it anywhere- I got it from Netflix but now when I check for it there’s only the option to put it on your save queue.
