And like Messy Mom, I had never heard of Eric Bana so thanks Chelly for that pic... Holy Smokes! Yeah, not scrawny. Who needs a subscription to People magazine when we have Mary and Chelly?

I'd much rather hear that someone liked a movie than didn't! :)<br /><br />Brenda - I've never seen War of the Roses; I'm pretty sure I would not enjoy it either! :) And we do sure have different tastes...but like you said, it's okay and I like you anyway!!<br /><br />Oh, also, I'd heard that rumor about Hugh Jackman, too. Good researching, Chelley!<br /><br />HM - no, I haven't seen X-Men. I'm going to use that as my excuse. :)<br /><br />And seriously, you guys, I realize I was totally wrong! :D But haven't you ever gotten something settled in your brain, even though it's based on NOTHING? Poor Hugh and Eric - that's what happened here. I just got it in my brain that they're scrawny little guys, when they're (apparently) not at all! :)) Gitz – I’m GLAD you liked it!

I just don't do well with 3 hour movies, I barely have the attention span for the normal 2 hour ones. I have never heard of Eric Bana, but as for Hugh, not bad at all ;) Sounds like one that I will skip.

Or Tony awards? I dunno... but I know that he also does theater (he's been in Beauty & the Beast, Oklahoma, & others), & did some numbers for some award shows. So hopefully that's all that is. ;) When I found those things out about him, I just liked him a lot more. :D<br /><br />I read somewhere that when he was in People magazine, his wife referred to his "Body of Doom" :D but said she likes how he looks on the inside -- he sings ballads at home & makes the kids pancakes. Awww... :D <br /><br />I also read that he thought those rumors about him being gay meant he was finally someone important in Hollywood. ;) I think that pic might be from when he hosted the Oscars?

What a horrible picture!!!<br /><br />Mary...I LOVE Hugh Jackman! He's one of the few actors I can have a "crush" on that my husband doesn't mind because he likes him too (in a completely heterosexual way of course! :-D). And have you SEEN X-Men??? How on earth could you think he was scrawny??? I guess MAYBE I could see it in "Kate and Leopold"...maybe. (If you haven't seen that, I think you'd like it...)<br /><br />That being said, although I didn't hate Australia, I was very disappointed (especially because I am against people living together as if they are married when they are not--just call me old-fashioned!) I also spent the last half of the movie thinking that it had to be over any second...and it never ended! <br /><br />Oh well... Ooh Brenda! What a horrible picture!!!

I also like how normal his wife looks. I had read that someone else suspected he was gay and then I saw this photo which is really scary!<br /><br />http://bighollywood.breitbart.com/files/2009/01/hugh-jackman_l.jpg <br /> <br />Sorry, I don't know how to do a proper link in a comment.

To somebody not famous (although I looked her up on imdb & she is an actress).
