Actors everyone else thinks are handsome

IMPORTANT NOTICE: I have nothing against these average looking men. They are merely not my type. They are apparently everyone else's type. That's fine too.

Exhibit A: Tom Cruise

Did you know this guy is 50 years old? He looks slightly plastic to me.

I suppose that a good thing to some.

Exhibit B: Ashton Kutcher

Yeah. I never had a "Future Mrs. Kutcher" bracelet.

Exhibit C: Matthew Mcconaughey

I respect that he makes comedies. He doesn't seem

to think he's too good to make fun of himself.

Not my type.

Exhibit D: Hugh Laurie

He's just a mean doctor. That's why people like him.

But in real life, people don't like mean doctors.

They feel like House has a reason to be mean because

he's so much smarter than everybody else. He doesn't.

Exhibit E: Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint

I'm pretty sure everyone else thinks these guys are

good-looking because everyone else grew up liking

the characters. That's understandable. 

From an outsiders point of view they're

pretty average.

Exhibit F: Taylor Lautner

Just not my favorite look.

Audrey Hepburn and her very inspiring self

Happy Audrey Hepburn's birthday, everyone!

In honor of her birthday I'm posting an article I wrote about her sometime last year. Sadly, it's already embarrassing how poorly written it is. Oh well, I'm not a writer. Just a person who writes once in a while. Here it is! 

We’ve all heard of Audrey Hepburn. Right? We’ve seen the oh-so-famous photo from “Breakfast at Tiffany’s” where she’s holding the uber long cigarette and wearing the big jewels. Well, at least most of us have. But do you know all the other reasons she’s famous? Did you know that before she began her acting career World War II broke out and she and her mother had to flee to Holland? Even there the Nazi troops marched right up to the Hepburn’s front door. They ended up living in a little house in the country with 40 other people, no heat and little food. Though even in those desperate circumstances Audrey pulled through. She taught the other children dance routines and held performances to raise money for the troops, even though they couldn't clap for fear of being found. Once the war finally ended Audrey realized her dreams of being a ballerina were hopeless due to the fact that she was too tall. So, she decided to try out acting instead. She ended up being in at least 31 movies. She not only nailed every roll but won over everybodys admiration in the process. She always had her lines memorized and still found time to do things like cook dinner for the whole cast and crew. She later went on to have 2 sons and when they were grown she put her fame to good use by becoming an ambassador for an organization called Unicef. It was the same organization that had helped her as a child during the war. And in 1989 she spoke to Congress and asked for help for all the people she had met during her travels. Funding for Unicef double and she inspired other celebrities to join the movement. You see, Audrey Hepburn’s life was not always as easy as she made it look in the movies but she chose joy over sorrow, and it’s that kind of outlook that’s an inspiration.

Adventures

I love adventures. In real life and in the movies. I'm not just talking about action movies, scary movies, or spy movies. Sometime those things are incorporated in adventures but they don't define them. Anyhoo, I'm super excited about a couple of upcoming things.

Exhibit A: "The Avengers" Premiering tomorrow!

And...

Exhibit B: "Sherlock" Season two airs in the US on the sixth!

Get super excited people!
I'm hoping to get some more actual well thought through posts out soon. Until then, enjoy the heroes, demigods, giant green men and consulting detectives that we call entertainment!
