AIBU?

AIBU to be gripped in the throes of a teenage style crush on Eddie Redmayne?

He is not even my type! I am worried about myself. I am old enough to be his.. well old enough! But there is just 'something' about him & I am having filthy thoughts about him. I blame bloody birdsong coz I didn't even like him in pillars of the earth.

So, am I alone?

Yep. Vertical expression of a horizontal desire, and all that.

limitedperiodonly · 02/02/2012 15:01

I had a sex dream about Alistair Campbell. I worry about my subconscious when I'm not there to keep an eye

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 02/02/2012 15:03

That's bad luck, limited!

though.

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 15:05

limited, you made me laugh out loud at that

DYING to get home so I can click on all these!

limitedperiodonly · 02/02/2012 15:35

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 02/02/2012 15:40

Probably wouldn't say no to Alex Zane actually.

Hardy, on the other hand ? no. Just no. Pillow lips. And he's short. And bulky.

And it's CumberBATCH. Not fecking patch.

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 15:44

Is this ANOTHER hijack? Oh does this link actually feature E.R.????!

OP posts:

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 15:46

ok, ok, just sat through that for NO REASON whatsoever! Tom Hardy, no thanks! Limited, he's all yours

LadyC, I share your opinion on Alex Zane too, though it is a mild flirtation in my case, unlike my dying devotion to ER.

OP posts:

limitedperiodonly · 02/02/2012 15:47

See, I care so little about him that I don't even know his name.

And Tom Hardy isn't short, but I suppose it depends on how freakishly tall you are.

The bulk was just for a film. So was the baldness and Village People moustache.

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 15:47

Ummm..that should, of course, say 'undying devotion'....

OP posts:

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 15:48

Yeah yeah yeah Limited...what your selling..I ain't buying...no way! You can keep him!

OP posts:

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 02/02/2012 15:49

I think Hardy had to have lifts in his shoes for the Batman film ...

I am elegantly tall, not freakishly, ta very much . And I still think he naturally tends towards bulk. bet he cultivates a Village People moustache for private thrills too

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 15:49

ooh I am all in a flutter today, making silly mistakes everywhere...that last one should say 'you're' not your...sorry!

OP posts:

limitedperiodonly · 02/02/2012 15:50

What?? Alex Zane?? I don't know whether he's gay but he's doing a good impression of it with Tom. He even giggles about 4 mins in. Not that I've watched it obsessively or anything.

And Tom likes Beverly Hills Cop which is one of my favourite films too.

limitedperiodonly · 02/02/2012 15:54

No Redmayne. Can't be bothered to link to ER. He does have pillowy lips like Tom but they've been deflated.

WannaBeWildCosMyLifesSoTame · 02/02/2012 16:01

You're not the only one, he wouldn't normally be my type - too clean and posh looking - but ever since I saw My Week With Marilyn I have had a similar crush on him - he is just so damn beautiful! In fact I'm not sure if I actually want to do sexy things with him or just have him sit in front of me so I can sigh and run my fingers over his immaculate cheekbones I haven't seen Birdsong yet and it sounds a bit crap but he looked delicious in the trailer.

HueyMorganismyboyfriend · 02/02/2012 16:04

A tad too pretty for me

I need stubble, Max Beezley is doing it for me in Mad Dogs

Wasn't ER in that film Inception?

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 02/02/2012 16:07

Don't know if he's in Inception, but Tom Hardy is.

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 16:24

At last. Another person who appreciates the sheer beauty of Eddie Redmayne, welcome Wannabe! I know exactly what you mean, I would be happy (sort of!) to sit and stare too. Is My Week with Marilyn any good (apart from the obvious HUGE plus of it featuring ER). Birdsong is def worth a look if and when it is repeated. He looks fiiiiiiiine in it, and there are sex scenes so plenty of fuel for the imagination

Was he in inception? I have no idea...he has only come to my attention recently.

LadyClariceCannockMonty · 02/02/2012 16:28

I didn't think My Week.. was all that good. However, Michelle Williams is terrific in it, as is, surprisingly, Kenneth Branagh. It's a rather plodding and obvious film IMO. Might be worthwhile for your Eddie fix though.

Yeah, I think I can say with some certainty that I will be going to see it at some point in the very near future . Actually, when I was googling him like a demented loon the other day I saw some very nice piccies of him with Michelle Williams at some premiere and thought they looked prefect together, they would make a lovely looking couple. I love her! Sigh....

Limited I am disappointed that you would not be bothered to link for me, very disappointed.

Oh god, will somebody please make me get up off my arse and start getting dinner sorted. It's all very well me mooning about like a love sick teenager, but there are people to be fed here. And laundry to do. And. And. And. Sob.

MitchieInge · 02/02/2012 16:41

awwwww! I have to say you are not being unreasonable because am a bit prone to odd infatuations myself, but can't say I share your feelings in this case

redmayneslips · 02/02/2012 16:46

I know MitchieInge, it is all a bit tragic really. I am old enough to know better. And yes, I am still here. Haven't moved. Must. Go. Now.
