So I lied last time. Since I've started checking out his other stuff and watching interviews and suchlike, I've discovered my inner JEH fangirl. The man is adorable and awesome no matter what he's doing.

Also, finals this term are out to kill me, I swear. I write exams Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Monday. I wrote one yesterday as well, but it was the easiest one. 100 multiple choice, purely factual recall. Oh, how I've missed such exams. The rest unfortunately, are essay-answer types.

Still have no idea how I'm moving myself and all my junk to my parents' for the summer. Which I need to figure out by the weekend. Yargh.

Should be fun. Wish me luck.

Have a good one, all!

I have a problem. I admit it. I have an attraction to the oddest characters sometimes, and am often rather ashamed of it.

Currently, I have a highly inappropriate fascination with Rorschach, of Watchmen. Yes, the little, smelly, psychotic pitbull of a man. This obsession started with the novel. Reading the novel, the character of Rorschach was the one I was the most invested in (with Dan coming in a close second, same in the movie), and the one whose logic, actions, backstory, and end kept me riveted in the story. But, while I enjoyed the character immensely, there was no Rorschach = hot!!1!1 there, at all. Just a fantastic character.

Then the movie happened. Rorschach was done fantastically well,* and for some reason the aforementioned equation popped up in my head and has refused to go away. I tried to pinpoint just what it was. It's not physical attraction to Jackie Earle Haley, as I don't find him attractive(though he does have fabulous eyes, another attraction of mine). But as Rorschach? Serve me up some more of that! I think I finally figured it out though.

Voice kink. Rough, gravelled, deep voice. The realization stemmed from the fact that I've got a bit of a Comedian thing as well, purely because of his voice. Same with Batman. And the recent episode of Supernatural with Dean and Castiel growling at each other, which reduced me to a puddle of glee. Also, come to think of it, Eric of True Blood. In that role I don't find the actor physically attractive, but the voice, oh, the voice.

But it's not just those type of voices; I could listen to Ewan McGregor's voice all day long and be happy if it never ended.

But even so, weird attractions. Particularly Rorschach, a man who appears to depise the very idea and even states that being Rorschach frees him from such base things as lust. And yet....

Also, I adored Heath Ledger's Joker because it was an absolutely fabulously done portrayal for the tone of the new Batman movies. But no physical attraction. Until I ventured into fanfic that I should not have. >.<

Oh the shame.



*Not that other parts weren't done well. I enjoyed all the performances, other than Silk Spectre II to whom I was kind of indifferent, and Ozymandias who was acted decently but not cast as well as the others, IMO.
