To find Mr Tumnus far more attractive than I was expecting a faun to be?

Just watched the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe with the dc. Should probably make very clear that it was the most recent film, not the BBC version or the 1970s cartoon...

Am imagining the pre-casting meeting. "So we've got some kids, a lion and a beaver? I guess we'll have to make the faun the sexy one then..."

Hmm not sure. I thought he was quite creepy. And how a scarf keeps him warm when that's all he wears is very Confused

I find James McAvoy attractive, but all I could think of when he was playing Mr Tumnus was how cold he looked, bare-chested in the snow -something awful about cold-ruddy skin and just a scarf round his neck...

Mythologically, fauns are sexy, of course, all goatish and rampant and continually surprising napping nymphs in forest glades etc.

I did think that too Banana. About the scarf. And he's still wearing one at the end when it's meant to be summer. Maybe it's just a fashion accessory..

I thought that too, put a shirt on James.

Good God, no!

James McAvoy is sex on a stick (obviously), but not as Mr Tumnus. He has the legs of a goat, for a kick off.

And the nose!!!

Surely when watching James McAvoy bare chested your first thoughts should be 'How can I warm him up', not 'put a shirt on.'

ProfondoRosso · 05/01/2014 13:38

Well, he is 'a very bad faun.' Wink

He looks exactly like my ex. From the waist up and down actually, he was mega hairy
