I finally have one! Tom Hanks. I've always been a massive fan anyway I just think he's amazing as a person and as an actor but lately I find him really handsome even though it's never crossed my mind before. My tastes are changing as I age I suppose (38). He's getting on a little bit now but I still think he's lovely, more so thinking of Green Mile / Saving Private Ryan era. It's the lopsided smile... it just grabs me 😍

So come on I'm curious. Who's yours?

Oh another one is Aaron Eckhart, especially with the long hair in Erin Brockovich 🤭

He's a bit like Aragorn though in that I only fancy Aaron Eckhart in EB.
Mine is probably Toby from The West Wing.

Non obvious...Like

Lol I wasn't sure how else to phrase it. Understated? I guess when most people imagine Hollywood studs or whatever most people probably think of Brad Pitt, Chris Hemsworth etc etc. Nope. Give me a normal looking 55 year old any day of the week!

Oh my God really?! Aaron Eckhart is HARDLY non obvious crush come on!!! On what planet would Aaron Eckhart be a quaint obscure ordinary looking bloke? He's a famous, objectively good looking man of course he's an obvious crush.

Zinedine Zidane

LilCat · 05/03/2023 19:59

So non obvious here is used like not super famous, not the flavour of the month celebrity? Someone who isn't currently in the limelight or under 35 it seems...

Oh okay, I didn't realise he was that famous to be honest but I don't watch a lot of films so not really up to date.

Sent off in a World Cup final for headbutting an opponent, letting himself and his country down.

Yeah, what more could you want in a man...?

I always get funny looks when I tell people I fancy Adam Driver. Although I do think he has grown into his goofy looks recently. I think growing out his hair to hide his ears has helped.

Michael! Jason would always come up to him and imitate his Scottish accent and be like "Alright mate?" and Michael would always low-key blush Blush

Ardal O'Hanlon, who was very hot on Taskmaster.
