Precisely, MrsLN. My first thought on looking at that pic was moobs (just a trick of the light I'm sure, as everyone else is seeing buffed pecs) and I only broke my resolve never to say anything mean about anyone because everyone was dissing my man Craig. Besides, they are Mr Porter's moobs, not The Man's. Confused

Theresaholeinyourmind · 07/01/2011 23:17

On the subject of moobs I guess it's easier to get rid of those than do something about taxi-cab ears.

asmallbunchofflowers · 07/01/2011 23:23

On the subject of moobs for the last time, I guess the thing is that, from the exterior, buff pecs and moobs can look surprisingly similar.

Taxi cab ears? I have no idea what you mean but I doubt it's kindly meant.

Interested in this thread?

Flowers - you are more than welcome to your Mr Craig, and I will be quite happy with Mr Porter, moobs & muffin top and all!

asmallbunchofflowers · 07/01/2011 23:25

Exactly, MrsLN. 'Tis all a matter of personal preference.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 07/01/2011 23:30

It wouldn't do if we were all the same, indeed, the human race would probably die out as one man would get all the mates and he would eventually expire from exhaustion.

I think JP is mighty fine, myself. What about Guy, too chunky too, Flowers?

asmallbunchofflowers · 07/01/2011 23:39

Exactly, Theresa. What I enjoy about MN (and about this thread especially) is having all sorts of wacky conversations with people who hold different ideas and opinions from mine. When I say that Commander Bond as portrayed by Mr Craig is thudworthy, I don't expect anyone to agree with me.

I'm not going near Mr Porter (oh Mr Porter) but I will concede that Guy's torso is quite, ahem, an arresting sight. As discussed passim, I am not averse to a bit of muscle.

MrsLucasNorth · 07/01/2011 23:41

Actually on the subject of John Porter, RA did say in an interview about Strikeback that although he needed to be/look fit for the part, he couldn't go too far as Porter hasn't been in active service for 7 years.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 07/01/2011 23:44

Yes, tell us more about that, Flowers. Nice bum and all that, but you can't work out what's going on from the photo.

MrsLucasNorth · 07/01/2011 23:44

Tbh I really like Pierce Brosnan ad Bond, so DC was always a bit of a non-starter for me on that front. I can't get my head round a blond Bond either I'm afraid.

asmallbunchofflowers · 07/01/2011 23:57

Well, Theresa it turns out to be a figure from Dante's Inferno, part of an unrealised project. The figure can be seen in context here (top RH corner).

Pierce Brosnan as Commander Bond was hmm nice. Pierce Brosnan in the Thomas Crown Affair was sit down and fan yourself. For me.

MrsLucasNorth · 08/01/2011 00:06

Oh yes, TCA - yummy!

Bit soon for an RA remake d'ya think?

Theresaholeinyourmind · 08/01/2011 00:10

Sorry I disappeared, computer crashed, reading back...

Theresaholeinyourmind · 08/01/2011 00:15

Thanks for the elucidation on the subject of the , ahem bum and surrounding parts. You'd think the inhabitants of hell would look a little less healthy, though wouldn't you?

PB was a rather nice suave twinkly Bond. I didn't like Roger Moore at all in that part, not enough bite, but Connery was masterful.

but that's me...

asmallbunchofflowers · 08/01/2011 00:16

Good. You're both still here.

How many different vids do you think we've watched here? I just counted how many I've got saved - and I think they've all been screened here - and it came to 118. And there have been plenty more that I haven't saved because they didn't pass my stringent quality control tests. Oh dear me. So, as it's late and nobody else is watching, I think we should .

Theresaholeinyourmind · 08/01/2011 00:24

The vraiment fascinant is singularly appropriate. No moobs there on Lucas, sigh.

Concentrated like that it's almost too much.

Come on whose mouth was watering?

Well that wins the Oscar for the hottest I reckon. And the Britney one maybe for the rudest. Any more categories we can think of?

Night night Flowers, swwet dreams and thanks for that

Theresaholeinyourmind · 08/01/2011 00:30

Night night Flowers and thanks for that. Poor Allan looked as hot and bothered as I am

MrsLucasNorth · 08/01/2011 00:30

BANG!!!

Why have I not got that on my spreadsheet already - I think it may have just knocked Rude Boy off the top spot!

PrairieOyster · 08/01/2011 00:31

I have over 270 videos favourited on YT and I don't favourite all of them by any means. There are also some vids on Vimeo, RAfanvids etc that are YT.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 08/01/2011 00:32

MN has gone nuts meanwhile -- sorry about the double post

asmallbunchofflowers · 08/01/2011 00:32

And the winner of the Oscar for Most Impressive Strutting About In Leather Trousers and Sauciest Way With An Apple (joint honours) is ... .

Dors bien.

Theresaholeinyourmind · 08/01/2011 00:33

I hope there are no more like that last one, Oyster, or I fear for my sanity Grin

MrsLucasNorth · 08/01/2011 00:33

Night night ladies.

Mr N Claus and his band of merry men are hoping to stop by for a visit tomorrow...
