Gosh there has been lots of excitement on MN in the last day or so at the news that he has split with his partner. MNers practically scratching each others eyes out to have first claim on him! Wink Which is all very lovely but....

I just don't see it. And I don't know why - I love beards, I love actors, I love talented men, I appreciate a slightly outlandish dress sense. But he does absolutely nothing for me. Not in his current state, not in his younger days - nada. Not even as Captain Jack Sparrow (see earlier beard reference)

Anyone else feel the same?

I would say Eric Bana is more of a weasel than a gerbil...

TOm hardy does simper and pout i saw him at a 'thing' on the red carpet pouting with lip gloss on POUTING hully POUTING !!

Hullygully · 20/06/2012 12:22

He looks like all his features are runnning towards eachother to get away from his puffy cheeks.

Hullygully · 20/06/2012 12:22

I don't want that pouty child, mrsjay. Gerrof can have him

BupcakesandCunting · 20/06/2012 12:24

Jason Isaacs? Who is he? He looks like most men on the street. Nowt special there, lass.

Hullygully · 20/06/2012 12:24

MOST MEN ON THE STREET?

Where do you live? I'm moving there right now

GrahamTribe · 20/06/2012 12:24

Lotta, YANBU. He does absolutely nothing for me at all. I just don't get the fuss over him.

Mrsjay · 20/06/2012 12:25

oh sorry i misread ok well she can have him and he can pout for her Grin I like jason issacs i think he is lovely and of course i would

Hownoobrooncoo · 20/06/2012 12:26

Depp was hot a good few years ago, lost it somewhat. Was hot in The Astranaut's Wife even thouh it seemed a rubbishy rehash of Rosemay's Baby and he had dodgy blond hair.

Jason Isaacs? Yes, very yummy though was surprised at his regional normal accent.

my man for the moment is Michael Fassbender (not that I'm obsessed or anywhat).

Badvoc · 20/06/2012 12:28

Yanbu I agree
Don't get the whole brad Pitt thing either.
I don't really go for the tortured angst ridden thin pale type tbh
Am more a george clooney type of gal (slobber)

AmazingBouncingFerret · 20/06/2012 12:30

I'll have em all! GIMME EM ALL!

Jason Isaacs mmm yes please, with deatheater robes on, wouldnt mind him calling me a filthy little mudblood before he had his wicked way.

CremeEggThief · 20/06/2012 12:31

Eh? Really? YABU!

Mrsjay · 20/06/2012 12:33

oh that was an interesting journey into your mind amazing i feel kinda grubby now Grin

shewhowines · 20/06/2012 12:36

lottopianos Honestly - nope

AmazingBouncingFerret · 20/06/2012 12:37

Grin I aim to please.

cocolepew · 20/06/2012 12:44

I cant beluive Ive refused to watch black hawk down all these years!

How can you say Brad isn't sexy? Have you not seen Fight Club?

Mindyou its all Bradley Cooper for me now. Hes soooo beeyooteeful.

hackmum · 20/06/2012 12:47

I don't get the Johnny Depp adulation either. I can see that he's moderately attractive but not why women go completely berserk over him. Can anyone explain or is it just one of those things?

helenthemadex · 20/06/2012 12:49

he doesnt do it for me either his hair looks like it needs a good wash and cut, and a thin weasley face with a scruffy beard a hobo would be proud of! give me james Blunt any day ummmmmmmmm GrinBlush

NunTheWiser · 20/06/2012 12:57

YANBU. I've never "got" the Johnny Depp phenomenon. Don't much care for Brad Pitt or George Clooney. Which I'm sure they'll be utterly devastated to hear.
Have you seen Jason Isaacs as Jackson Brodie in Case Histories? Don't mind if I do.

Sidge · 20/06/2012 13:04

Nope, Johnny Depp does nothing for me.

Looks like he needs a shit, shower and shave - ugh.

SaskiaRembrandtWasFramed · 20/06/2012 13:22

JD was gorgeous when he was younger, but he's started to look a bit 'dirty old man' over the last 3 or 4 years, and not in a good way.

Agree about Black Hawk Down - first time I saw that film I had to resist the urge to lick the screen.

GetOrfMoiiLand · 20/06/2012 13:26

Is jason Isaacs not as posh as Lucius Malfoy in real life then?

Don't tell me he comes from Hull, ffs.

GetOrfMoiiLand · 20/06/2012 13:26

Jason Issacs is Rupert Campbell Black, in my head.

Johnny Depp looks how I would imagine Hilary Spurling to look (sans tache)

Hownoobrooncoo · 20/06/2012 14:29

Jason Issaca has quite a strong northern regional accent, I was on telly last wee in an interview, I was surprised.

Hownoobrooncoo · 20/06/2012 14:29

I wasn't on telly either, he was.
