Keanu reeves and Brian Cox?

The answer is more than likely yes so you will need to share your unreasonable crushes.

Actually I have loved him now for a few years.

notsofrownieface · 14/07/2012 12:25

Yy to Keanu Reeves but only in Speed.
Jonathan Rhys Meyers
Alan Rickman
Jeff Daniels
Alec Baldwin

Lottapianos · 14/07/2012 12:26

Tim Vine? You don't mean Jeremy Vine? [baffled]

Pancakeflipper · 14/07/2012 12:27

No deffo not Jeremy ( his unfunny brother). I mean Tim.

Lottapianos · 14/07/2012 12:28

Aah, Tim. The other unfunny brother Wink

Just kidding Pancakeflipper. What is it about him?

Disclaimer - I do not fancy Jeremy Vine. As you were.

mycatoscar · 14/07/2012 12:31

Hmmm Hugh jackman Grin

Also like the guy who is Ted in how I met your mother. And Andrew Flintoff Wink

Pancakeflipper · 14/07/2012 12:32

Don't pick on Tim, or I will cry.

Clueless to what it is. I think it's because he makes me giggle and is tall But so is John Bishop and I don't fancy him.

Lottapianos · 14/07/2012 12:34

Ok Pancake, I am officially backing off. Enjoy Tim Wink

Pancakeflipper · 14/07/2012 12:35

Thank you for your courtesy Lotta, I will go back to my small club of "We Love Tim Vine"

Lottapianos · 14/07/2012 12:36

Smile Pancake. I'm sure you're not the only one by the way!

Hownoobrooncoo · 14/07/2012 13:42

Right now, which Brian Cox are we on about. Dweeb scientist or charismatic older actor? I was aye aying the actor!

Rhiana1979 · 14/07/2012 15:19

Jeremy Renner ...drool Grin

MrsHelsBels74 · 14/07/2012 15:23

Jamdonut I am very jealous Envy Have you seen them before?

But yes to Professor Brian Cox in response to the original question (I wasn't even aware there was another Brian Cox)

RedSquizzle · 14/07/2012 15:43

OP i agree with you 100% but prepare yourself............my DH used to look like a cross between Keanu and the Prof.
He still does to me, but he's very thin these days, so has fewer women fainting as he passes them in the street. I promise I didn't starve him deliberately

Oooooooh, Keanu.....

dreadingseptember · 14/07/2012 15:44

Just to clarify there is only one Brian Cox! There may be others who bare his name but they are not and never will be my Prof. Brian Cox, physicist, TV presenter & D-Ream keyboardist Confused

Yip, Brian Cox the little known actor in

Troy
The Bourne Movies
Braveheart
Rob Roy
Coriolanus

MrsReiver · 14/07/2012 18:15

Hownoobrooncoo thank you! Mentioning the Bourne movies reminded me of
Nolan Ross out of Revenge - real name Gabriel Mann.

MrsHelsBels74 · 14/07/2012 18:58

Jamdonut Wembley stadium was awesome! I was there both nights.

Am gutted I can't go to the gigs this year but it's a month after my due date so a bit optimistic Sad

Anyway, back to the thread without further ado....

OAM2009 · 14/07/2012 20:00

Fireandashes, all my crushes are on here too!

It's not a crush, it's actually LOVE, but Harrison Ford and I have been together for over 30 years now (in my dreams). He's older than my father and I've loved him longer than my DH Grin

Indiana Jones is the best man on Earth.
Although Han Solo and Aragorn come close.

For completeness, my weird crush is:

Tim Curry
Sex on a stick.

I've also got the hots for Helena Bonham Carter. She is awesome and could never, ever do anything wrong.

tedmundo · 14/07/2012 20:09

SPsFanjoLves .. Ohhhh I want details of your Sheldon dream... I have day dreams about seducing him, I don't even wait to be asleep! There is something so sexy about intelligence.

As a mother to an uber geek in training, I am loving that there is a fair amount of lusting for geek chic on here.

mcyawny · 14/07/2012 20:20

Ooooh Tim Curry....... in Rocky Horror - is that weird.
And I will always always love Ewan McGregor, especially in Moulin Rouge.
Val Kilmer (think Willow)

CaveMum · 14/07/2012 20:21

In the vein of geek love, I have a very soft spot for Matt Smith, making this a firm favourite Grin

yesiamanaturalblue · 14/07/2012 20:43

James Wong (oh yy to who said that upthread)
Shane Ritchie
Gary Barlow
And Blush Billy connolly
