Nope. You are so utterly and completely wrong. Two words, dear: Scientific Research.

You just keep telling yourself that Solar.

Here's some moving Benedict for you to enjoy. Note the hair, the profile, the slight lisp at times and....pause.....HANDS!

Why, what, do you mean... you don't believe me...???

I realized despite all of Ben's successful roles, no one really wants to talk about his role of Paul Marshall in Atonement. I just rewatched it and I had this weird fascinated/excited-because-it's-BC yet repulsed-by-Paul feeling. I kept thinking over and over, "I know you but I suddenly don't know you anymore." It was...disconcerting to say the least.

We talked about Paul just recently, I just don't remember in which thread. I think Benedict is doing a brilliant job here, his slimy, aggravating, dislikeable Paul truly sends shivers down my spine at times - and when I saw the film for the first time, I didn't know Benedict yet.
Remember Mary's face when she drank from that whine in TSoT...? I'd say that's the face I made several times in connection with Paul when I saw the film for the first time. Yuck!

I know this is off-topic but I just have to write on here how much I am enjoying this thread, meeting all you lovely people who share in a mutual appreciation of Benedict, not only in his fine physical form but also as an exquisite actor, who has the best years of his life ahead of him.

It's great to be able to share, with you all, the success he is about to enjoy. Not that we have any ownership over him or his career, but to be able to collectively chat and appreciate him and his brilliant work, is a great thing. Beyond The Thing, the suits, and the general gorgeousness, there's a massive mutual respect for him, and I love that.

I just felt the need to say it. Thanks to you all, it's been an absolute pleasure, and I know it will be for ages to come

I agree ^^

All you guys are wonderful, and it's a massive pleasure to be able to come on here and express what I'm unable to express to my friends in the real world, paha!

You're welcome ladies. I only found this place lsat May but I've been here everyday since!

Next topic:

Can we talk about his thumbs?

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 14, 2014 4:46 pm

OMG he´s looking like a boy!

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 14, 2014 4:47 pm

lovely pics, tonnaree!
/and you´ve put Havel´s quote in your sig! /

He got ten years younger within one or two days. Must be a magic trick.

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 14, 2014 4:52 pm

and a magic hair styler!

Well, my motto is, if you're going to dream, dream big. Why not.

This thread is the best one on the whole forum, IMO. It does, however, eat up lots and lots of time. Not complaining, just saying. The scenery is first rate, to say the least. thud-worthy, drool-worthy and delicious I'm glad you found us!

clareiow · February 14, 2014 5:16 pm

As I'm glad I found you all

rebeccaholmes · February 14, 2014 5:20 pm

Thank you for another eventful day, ladies! I must be off for my anti-valentines nights with a friend of mine.

I look forward to catching up on some beautiful images later on. ;)

Ha, funny, I read exactly the same thing on some blog this afternoon. He does look younger indeed, but I couldn't say if that also makes him look better... the pics from the last few days were all brilliant, he looked so gorgeous in that dark-blue jumper he wore at the Convention... Maybe he had the chance to have a good night's rest somewhere in-between.

Le Bear Polar · February 14, 2014 5:41 pm

I had the same impression! About him looking younger. His cheeks look more filled out, in a good sort of way!

SolarSystem · February 14, 2014 5:47 pm

But he looks really, really slim, don't you think...?

Mrs.Wenceslas · February 14, 2014 5:51 pm

far too much. he needs to have dinner with me again
