> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Katisha \* > \*\*Me too! But that’s not that disturbing. What’s disturbing is that one of his swooniest roles IMHO is Professor Snape… :eek: 😉 \*\* I think his dreamiest role is as the rancher in _Quigley Down Under_. Gotta loves the cowboys…especially when they’re bad like Rickman was in this movie. _swoon_ ---

Hmm … many of these posts have made me remember more closet cuties. Okay, **Angua** , I’m rescuing you. Yes, I think Jonathan Frakes is a cutie too. But Patrick Stewart is better. **Crescent** and **jsgoddess** : I third Chow Yun Fat. Swoon! And, um, also … Christopher Walken. A little. I don’t _know_ why. ---

I lost track of how many Oliver Platts we are up to, but I’d like to throw my hat into the ring… Also, votes for Alan Rickman, Christopher Walken (especially when he reprises his role as The Continental) 🙂 Patrick Stewart / Ben Kingsley (I hear they are friends…hmmmm…threesome!) Harland Willaims George Lopez and the guy who plays Ernie And any of the Asian actors ---

I have to echo the votes for Christopher Walken, Oliver Platt and Adrian Brody. I’ve also got a thing for Willem Dafoe. ---

Right now, I’m nursing crushes on: [Skipp Sudduth](http://www.nbc.com/photos/Primetime/Third_Watch/1THRay00.jpg) _and_ [Tommy Walsh](http://dev.bbcamerica.m23.com/genre/home_living/ground_force/gf_tommy.jsp), though he’s a “TV personality” and not really an actor. ---

> [@](#): > > I didn’t quite understand ‘The Truth About Cats and Dogs’ because she was supposed to be the plain Jane while the role of was played by Uma Thurman. I had this exact problem. Aside from politics, I have little fantasies about cuddling up with Janeane almost every time I see her picture. I think that some of her pictures I’ve seen are actually stunning. Let’s see… Bonnie Hunt is a little old for me, but I still like her a lot, especially with her being more ous on her new show, as opposed to stuff like “Jerry McGuire”. Fran Drescher looks great on those new Gap ads. Now we just need to get her a larynx transplant… Oh, and I have a guy-crush on Anthony Stewart Head. I want to be him when I get that age: trim, intelligent, masculine, sophisticated. ---

No secret, but Molly Price whets my whistle. Yow. Yeardley Smith, too. Oh, and I wouldn’t kick [Cathy Jones](http://www.cbc.ca/onair/personalities/22minutes/jones.html) out of bed for eating lutfisk, either. Wanna make something of it? ---

Sad thought: I also loved Phil Hartman’s work, but fell in love with the charcter he played on “Third Rock.” OH YEAH! French Stewart and Alan Rickman are pretty cool. ---

Add another vote for Alan Rickman. And Joeseph Malina (although I used to watch him on Seaquest DSV) Jonathan LaPaglia (Seven days) Vincent Ventresca (Invisible Man) It’s like a feast from off-beat scifi! Also, from the other side of the ocean– Rowan Atkinson (esp Blackadder II) Hugh Laurie (even when he’s playing a twit) Stephen Fry (yes, I know he’s gay) And way more that I will rememer after I hit 'submit" ---
