Ryan Reynolds - yay or nay

I am watching yet another Ryan Reynolds film and just love his comedy delivery. The man seems like an absolute all-round legend, fit, funny and a gentleman. Lucky Blake Lively!

Reasonable votes: yes, you are right, all other men pale in comparison and he's the best.

Unreasonable votes: you are wrong, he's a pig, totally wooden and unfunny.

Man, just got to give him some appreciation. He cannot put a foot wrong!

I’ve only seen him in Spirited and he was amazing in that.

He looks like such a fun person.

Want to see Ryan Reynolds and Ryan Gosling in the same room because I'm not convinced they're seperate people 😂

He seems like a decent bloke but too much of a boy next door look for me

I'm more Gosling than Reynolds but Blake Lively wins.

TomatoSandwiches · 12/08/2023 22:40

I think he should do more darker roles like the Amityville film.

I wondered just yesterday what he'll do when he outgrows these romcoms. He's the American Hugh Grant.

Didn’t understand the voting TBH. Not keen. Both Ryans don’t do anything for me. Bit cross eyed?

Yes to Gosling too. And Matthew McC (can't spell his name or he bothered googling!)

He's the type of bloke who I wouldn't initially fancy at all but his personality would win me over. I enjoy watching him in comic roles. Ryan and Blake both appear to be great people.

He's smart, sexy and bloody hilarious. I'd do him six ways from Sunday!

MyBrownEyedHandsomeBoy · 12/08/2023 22:47

Yanbu I love him too OP

Him, Chris Hemsworth and Paul Rudd

Oh yes.

Busubaba · 12/08/2023 22:49

Not attractive, not funny and a wooden actor.

IncognitoMam · 12/08/2023 22:49

Bit young for me but he could come over when ds2 is here and talk footy. Blake could come too if she wants? They could come to the workies and meet the locals. Am sure she'd love that 😁

Cocopogo · 12/08/2023 22:50

He’s my number one. He’s the one I always say if anyone asks if I could marry a famous guy who would it be etc

RJnomore1 · 12/08/2023 22:51

Matthew mccaunachey (sp?) is really talented. He was brilliant in true detective.

colouringindoors · 12/08/2023 22:52

BlackboardMonitorVimes · 12/08/2023 22:48

Oh yes.

He’s pretty easy and likeable to watch, but he’s like a one trick pony.
He’s the same in every film.

Sure, can't disagree with this. But that one trick is so good!

I've started liking him more since Welcome to Wrexham.

I read something Scarlett Johansson said about her marriage to him and it made me think he had a big ego and probably was a bit of an arse if her career was going better. Maybe she was the same. But being with a partner who can’t be happy for your successes and competes with you made me think he’s probably not so great as a person.

Ooh good dirt. Hadn't even realised he had been married before.
