Ehh, I'm Danish ... though not many Viking genes are left by now, 30(?) generations later.
My little secret:
I watched this you-tube thing (actually, more like 6 or 7 of them) with an NZ TV-show about some celebrities playing poker for charity - only because Craig Parker was in it! (He won, btw.) Every time a family member passed by, I quickly switched to watching something else.
I mean, really - at my age!  |

lol. Can't tell you how many flicks I've seen just because Viggo was in 'em. There's no shame in it.  |

Appreciate it, Viv. Ehem ... just put VM's new book on my wish list for my birthday. And it's not like I have 36 favourite Viggo sites on my new comp (they were all on my old comp who died).
I think this was embarassement enough for one day. |

OK, sorry for double-posting, but I have to know: which ones did you see? I have 4 or 5 Viggo DVDs (apart from LOTR). |

Probably the worst was The Prophecy, which was a crummy movie, but he was so smouldering! Vanishing Point was skippable, but for him. I watched A Walk on the Moon j(er, several times, and skipping to Scenes) ust because he was in it (and had a nude waterfall scene), and that actually turned out to be a pretty okay movie. Still have plans to see Indian Runner (because the screen caps are yum), but haven't figured out an excuse yet ("Honey, how about we see this movie." "Okay, what's it about?" "Er, naked Viggo, um, I mean *stuff*." <-- Doesn't go over extremely well in our household.)
I actually watched A History of Violence because I'd heard good things about it, beyond the Viggosity, and I wasn't disappointed. |

The one he did with Gwynneth Paltrow wasn't that bad. He was pretty hot and half naked quite a bit. Need to check out the nude waterfall scene. Has Karl Urban or Orlando gotten nekkid yet? Gosh I hope that if Karl did he finally learned about butt waxing.
I still have that LOTR butt avie.  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove

Haven't seen these two, but read the reviews.

Yes, that's a sweet movie! (I've got the video)

Oh no, you've got to sell it to him on the 'Vietnam-vet-who-doesnt-fit-in', 'freedom-loving', 'two brothers' issues! Es muy macho!! It's Sean Penn directing, after all. And it's not a bad movie; however, the nude scenes only last a minute or so. (I've got the DVD)

Very good, that one! (I've got the DVD) I plan to buy Eastern Promises; after all, VM got an Oscar-nomination for that one.
You know, it was a long time before I recognized young VM in 'The Witness' (another good movie) - he's one of the barn builders and sit between Harrison Ford and what's her name at the table. |

Okay, here's my confession. I downloaded all the Craig Parker pix I could find. Most of them are pix from LOTRs cause I have a thing for blonds.
I have to admit, though, that he makes a mighty fine brunette. (Are guys brunettes?)  _________________ 'I wish life was not so short,' he thought. 'Languages take such a time, and so do all the things one wants to know about.'

Don't blame yourself for that - it's a completely natural thing to do! *wisenod*

In short: no! With that ending on the word, it can only be used about a female. And I think we agree that Haldir is definitely not feminine ... be he blond or ... ehh ... brown-haired. lol |

Absolutely not! Silly me.

Would that make him a brunet then? _________________ Books would not be read, and pipes would not smoke. The day slipped out of his hand, running aimlessly to waste. JRR Tolkien. The Lost Road |

lol - I don't know, I'm ESL. Think the French might call him 'le brun'? Naah, think we'll just have to call him 'dark' or something ... A woman is a beautiful brunette, a man is dark and handsome, right? So much for equal rights. |

Maybe a man is just a brune. Sounds sorta like bruno. Okay, I'll stop making up words now.

*raises hand* I happen to have that one, too. It's called 'A Perfect Murder'. And Viggo seems to get naked in all his films (except LOTR), though most famously so in the latest one.

What?! How exactly would you know that he needed to learn?  |

A girl on here used to have a LOTR 'butt avie' (which I still have lol) that showed his butt in some movie. So we found the larger than 100x100 pics and he had issues with the hairy butt. He might be Rohirrim but his butt was Dwarf  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove
