Anybody else think Alan Rickman is extremely attractive?

<p>Yeah, it was a little disconcerting fantasizing about a guy as old as my father…! What can I say, he was incredibly sexy in a very Alan Rickman way. Add to that the brilliant creative MIND!! And NICE!! And flirty! </p>

<p><em>swoons</em></p>

<p>Completely isn agreement Hayden. I like the analogy to Ben Franklin. Franklin was notorious for still getting some at 80 years!!!</p>

<p>It’s that combination of forceful persona and incisive intelligence, coupled with the absolute conviction that they are right, right, right at all times, that make both Rickman’s Snape character, and Laurie’s House character so strangely sexy. Unlying all these things in both characters, is a carefully guarded emotional vulnerability that surfaces when you least expect it. Yeah, they’re both hot.</p>

<p>SBmom: Tom Stoppard?! I fall at your feet!</p>

<p>signed,
another who swoons over Hugh Laurie</p>

<p>Hey how about Eric Bana, in Munich? Pretty damn sexy, no?</p>

<p>Not in that movie ending. Ugh! Spielberg needs to work on his endings. Then again, so does Kushner. I saw Angels in America finally. Eesh. </p>

<p>By the way, Google Rickman + Brits + Bits+ and + Clips and find the download page that has all these old clips of him on TV. Scroll to find the one from an episode of The View. It’s so cute. Just the way he seems so shy in real life and very intelligent is enough to make any woman go Awww.</p>

<p>More Alan Rickman news
apparently he has written a play " my name is Rachel Corrie"
<a href=“http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002835875_corrie01.html[/url]”>http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2002835875_corrie01.html&lt;/a&gt;
( I think he should bring it to Seattle)</p>

<p>I saw that “Rachel Corrie” item in the paper, too. Yes, I think that play would get quite a good audience in Seattle.</p>

<p>Actually, it opened around a year ago, or ish. The problem is that while it did exceptionally well on the West End, it was coming to the new York Theater Workshop (the one that RENT premiered at in '95). However, the theater itself was in a few months of planning and suddenly dropped it, owing to “political unrest” in the New York area due to the Palestinian stuff and such. Alan Rickman was evidentally truly frustrated and I think hurt that they “postponed” his production. His actual statement was to the likes of, Either way you look at it, it was cancelled. The only good thing to come of this is that he might get it set up with a different theater, and I’m hoping for September in Chicago because i might be going to Northwestern and darn it I’d love to be at his opening night where he might appear!!!</p>
