to think that Alan Rickman is a NORMAL crush

[BrahmsThirdRacket]

Loads of people fancy Alan Rickman, don't they? Was talking about celebrity crushes with some friends, mentioned AR and they all went 'Err, no! He's weird.' I pointed out that lots of people fancied him, and they all said that wasn't true, I was mad etc.

AIBU?

Yes to Paxman too. I told dp that yesterday and he was v bemused!

I know where Alan lives.

ooh don't tease brightwell!

I reckon I could have a really good argument with Paxman and work up a bit of sexual tension

YANBU - it's that sexy, slightly arrogant manner ... coupled with aforementioned voice.

My DH doesn't understand. Mind you, he doesn't understand any of my crushes ... or he accuses me of having a thing for every male actor who's hit the screen because he can't see the (obv precise and carefully thought through) logic to my choices. I think he's just jealous.

YANBU - and I thought it was just me.
And preferably as a baddie, as others have said. By the way, has anyone else in the whole world seen a film he was in set in the world of competition hairdressing (seriously). Saw it on a plane years ago.

I saw that film Chocolatemoose! Didn't it have Bill Nighy in too? I quite liked it...

Me too......YADNBU!

Although would have trouble choosing between him and Patrick Stewart (my other older man crush).

Sexy as hell. Esp as Snape and in video for In Demand.
YMDANBU, they are!

droooooooool

He is good at being bad, but he is so lovely as Colonel Brandon I actually want to marry him.

would like to add that i have been rewatching "Cutting It" and "Found" Jason Merrells, utterly, utterly gorgeous, but just read he is married with children, guess all the good ones are.anyone else like him? but yes also to Ricmania!!!!!

siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh! at alan rickman.

Alan Rickman - YANBU

You ARE all being unreasonable.

If you don't like him, that's because you are clearly insane.

If you DO like him , you are also insane because he is mine, all mine.

Obviously....

OK, explain why we now have two Alan Rickman threads and this one is old? Walkersmum, did you search and find this one by mistake?
Or is his PR company going all viral on MN?

Men go a bit mad for Joanna Lumley's voice. Is he a male version of that, ie just, droolable, just for the voice alone?

I don't even care if he's gay or not. Makes no difference to me , seeing as how my chance of getting with him is remote at best. I love him regardless.

Once upon a time I was dealing with another celeb in a professional capacity and he was leaning against a wall wearing a long leather coat waiting for her. Part of me was 'not my type' but I can still see him stood there 20 years on so I think he has 'something'.Charisma? Never been swooning in films he's in though!

Totally normal, ever since Robin Hood and that Texas video he was in. He's the same age as my dad

Only in the shitty Kevin Costner version of Robin Hood. No to die hard, hate him in shite actually and he's too old to be Severus but that's the casting not him....

Oh and Texas video. Schwiiiiing.
