I mean, he's got very subtle facial expressions that are fun to watch. He was pretty cool in Henry VIII -- kinda thuggish, but not enough to outsmart Henry VIII.<br /><br />And you should know by now, Bean will die in pretty much 90 percent of his roles. The death is messy, but I wasn't surprised. I kept muttering, "dead man walking" when I saw him. The death didn't register for me because (1) He always dies in movies and (2) I was more impressed with the thug-style meeting between Aske and Henry than the death.<br /><br />But he's shirtless! You can be happy about that.Vivhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07143093739225121136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541804.post-1100535147656053292004-11-15T10:12:00.000-06:002004-11-15T10:12:00.000-06:00You know, I just read a page of the Fametracker Se...You know, I just read a page of the Fametracker Sean Bean thread. Those chicks are hard core Bean fangirls. They are scaring me, and I'm scary.<br /><br />BTW, why did you not tell me that they actually *show* his horrible death in Henry VIII? Jesus, I'm sick of him dying in everything I see him in! I'm sticking to Sharpe, low production values and all.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10685935004988095531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6541804.post-1100533885583362252004-11-15T09:51:00.000-06:002004-11-15T09:51:00.000-06:00I'll ignore the Sean Bean/Ben Affleck comparison. ...I'll ignore the Sean Bean/Ben Affleck comparison. Because that's just ... wrong. But different strokes, I say! Not ovaries of stone, but The Power of the Geek is just too strong for ya, because I actually *get* Alan Cumming, but not as a hawaiian shirt wearing dork ;) Sean Bean is actually very different from the well-manicured Jude Law/Christian Bale types that usually float my boat, and a lot of that has to do with the acting. He does ambiguously evil/fatallly flawed macho man reeeeeal well. I'm a sucker for that. <br /><br />I had a lot of fun! We *must* get together again soon.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10685935004988095531noreply@blogger.com
