This morning some of my co workers and I were talking about accents and I mentioned Cillian... so one of them looked him up on IMDB
When the other one saw the picture of him she freaked out 'Shut it down!' she said and said his eyes scared her...

so Wednesday I was at work, talking with my boss about how I was trying to afford my trip to Maine before I graduate...
Boss: Well have you thought about driving? Me: No, it's too expensive. Boss: Well it'd be good for you--whose going with you? Me: Nobody. Boss: It's just you? Me: Yes. Boss: Well then you need to force somebody to go with you...or get new friends. Me: I probably should, cause in December, Cillian Murphy was in New York and nobody wanted to go with me to see his show and then kidnap him... Boss: That totally sucks! Me: You're telling me...
*silence*
Boss: That poor little Irish man, he'd a never known what hit him!

I remember I brought my pal with me to see Red Eye and her exclamation was something like "holy cow!". Actually in an appreciative sense, fangirl squee included. About the eyes, It's the same question Peter Jackson was always asked abou Elijah Wood "are his eyes so blue in real life too?". I would reply as Pete did "no, he gets followed 24/7 by a SFX team to enhance the colour! You have no idea how much it's costing me!!!". ;D Anyaway, my friends are mostly cinema geeks like me so I never get the "he's creepy, no one knows him, I don't like him" answer. More like "he's creepy, he's an effin' amazing actor and.......hmmmmm.....he's really sexy". You know the group of nerdy pals in Watching the Detectives? Those are exactly like my friends!! My husband likes him a lot as an actor and he thinks he looks "weird", but he also says he's one of the best actors alive, so I guess it's OK. I agree to an extent with the "weird look", meaning he's got an unusual face, a very uncommon beauty and he is almost ageless. Has been looking like a 17-year-old for a decade, eat you heart out, you sparkly vampires! Now he looks 25 and he's even getting better, from cute to full blown handsome. I've been a fan for almost a decade and I've always thought he was attractive, but lately he is "how come cute little Cill has grown into this amazing looker?". That was noticed by my friends too, after they watched In Time

I am loving all of these stories!
So yesterday, we had someone new who is working at my school...she was teaching a class, I don't even remember what class, but she was really funny and cool. So I took out my picture of Cillian Murphy I keep in my binder, and I pretended to sob. She was like, "Um, what's wrong?" And I said, "Have you seen this man? He ran away from me three days ago...I guess he was creeped out about how I kept staring at him and drooling, but it still hurts!" And my class busted out laughing, along with the teacher. Than she took a closer look and said, "Ew, I'm sorry. I have NEVER seen THIS before".
-_- Oh well. Not everyone can find his looks amazing...

I have to second that, Blue, your stories are so enjoyful to read LOL
Bunnie, I would love to have a boss like yours !
Blue, your stories always giving me bit of a nostalgic feeling for somehow I miss the time back in school and all the fun I had with my classmates LOL
I have a little storie too. My boyfriend has a good female friend whom he had visited lately. (I was absent) I dunno why but they started talking about good looking actors and celeb crushes. And my boyfriend began to show her Cillian vids on youtube while telling her that I was into him. And that girl said, that Cillian has a very special look which may appear a bit strange at first sight, but the longer you look at him the more you get drawn into his extraordinary, fascinating beauty. And also she said that his handsomeness - because it is so special - would never get boring. Which was exactly what I always thought about Cillian! ;D I wish I had been present at this talk LOL
But my boyfriend, as he told me the story, suddenly began to ask himself why he is always ending up talking with his female friends about good looking men and women's stuff LOL He said he sometimes feels like the "gay best friend" or something XD

tennastottrup I admit I laughed too XD zombiekitten Your boyfriend is awesome haha! He spreads the Cillian love! My infamous obviously-faking-the-fact-he-can't-pronounce-Cillian's-name-correctly father strikes again. Today, during a raid session on World of Warcraft (he plays with me, we're in the same guild) we were on TeamSpeak (kinda like Skype but for games) with a bunch of nerdy guys, trying to win a battle against the last boss of the dungeon. You see, lately, I have been endlessly talking about Red Lights and how I hoped the movie would be as good as the script. And as you can guess I was casually chatting about the plot while backstabbing a fifty feet tall fire-breathing evil undead dragon of doom. I didn't realize I had the whole party captivated by what I was saying until only my father and I were left alive (everyone was so focused on my storytelling they all died). Needless to say we, too, died a while after that, but not without putting up a pretty fight. "How did you manage to stay focused on the strategy?" said the raid leader to my father. "I already know the plot and almost every single line." "You've read the script?" "No, she speaks about it all day long. Which reminds me, now that we are dead, I'll add 138 gold coins to the list of things Sillian Mourphey owes me." (for those who don't know, when you die in World of Warcraft you have to pay in gold for the repairs on your armor or it will become unusable; the higher level the armor is, the more gold you have to pay)
So now my father goes to all capitals in the game and yells "MURPHY, GIVE ME MY 138 GOLD COINS BACK!" and no one gets it but me. ;D We're such nerds haha (and he just did it again, this time I took a screen capture of his impeccable french spelling xD -> TinyPic.com link for my father's tiny gnome character)

I really don't get the vacuum thing. Though if I have to humour that I would say its better than being a shrink wrapped looking prune.

Hmmm... Maybe his face did get in contact with a vacuum cleaner... The vacuum cleaner of mother nature, sucking away everything ugly off of his face, leaving only flawless beauty and ginger and freckles. ;D ;D ;D

I had my husband watch Breakfast on Pluto. Hos comment was - Viggo Mortensen would never do that!!!! Neither Michael Fassbender!! - Now I'm picturing Viggo in drag, which is not exactly a pretty sight! I already know about Michael in drag, thanks to the X-Men DVD extras. Too bad I cannot unsee *that*

At the program for young people on benefits, I have this computer I usually use and I was a bit naughty and put Cillian on the background (someone had set it to a naughty lady before) and this girl walked up to me after class today and asked me if it was me who had set that background of Cillian Murphy (she even said that right)
Then we talked about how perfectly androgynous he is, apparently she was really into androgynies...
I like her, I REALLY like her!

This is hilarious. In the office, I'm sitting at my desk in front of my computer. I'm chatting with my colleague, he's playfully flirting with me. Mind that he's quite tall, but also quite chubby Him: "Soooo, what kind of men do you like?" Me: "Well........." He looks at my PC desktop, I have our London group photo with Cillian Him: "Ah, I see. You like 'em....scrawny!"
