I'm not too hot for bald Ed either. I don't even prefer him all bulked up like he was in AHX. He's sexy being his lean and lanky self.  Yeah, his look in The Italian Job was pretty bad. What is up with the wimpy little moustache? Ugh. I totally hated his character, too. It was definitely not one of his better roles, but that's okay, he was forced into doing it. I don't mind his look in 25th Hour and The Illusionist though. If he's going to go for facial hair, I'd rather have him go for the full beard rather than the wimpy moustache. Clean shaven and baby-faced Ed is the best though!  P.S. I just found out from a poster on Ed's board on imdb.com that Ed's going to be hosting the second season of National Geographic's Strange Days on Planet Earth. I haven't seen the first season he hosted, but I'll definitely be tuning in for this one when it airs on PBS on April 23rd. Yay! I just love hearing his voice! He looks great in the trailer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VwaEGlJkRf8 I'm such an Ed nut.  |

Yeah, I heard about the Earth Day concert. Too bad you won't be able to go, but urgh, you're so lucky anyway, Haley! You'll be within a few miles radius to where Ed's going to be! He's going to be on the Today Show on Tuesday, and don't forget that the Season 2 of Strange Days on PBS will premiere this Wednesday! That's good enough for me... in addition to The Incredible Hulk coming out in June! So excited...  Anyway, to update on my Ed list, I just saw The Score recently. Eh, it was okay, just your usual conventional heist movie. I'm going to watch Rounders next and heard Ed's pretty good in it! Can't wait. 1. Fight Club2. The Painted Veil3. American History X4. 25th Hour5. Primal Fear6. Death to Smoochy7. The Illusionist8. Kingdom of Heaven9. Everyone Says I Love You10. Keeping the Faith11. Down in the Valley12. Red Dragon13. The Score14. The Italian Job

Really? That sounds awesome! I was not at all interested in seeing that film, but if Ed is in it, I might just have to give it a go. quackattack-everytime I see your name, I think of the Mighty Ducks.  Don't ask why...random... |

^Haha, actually that's what I named it after. When I was little I was obsessed with the Mighty Ducks and there was one part when Goldberg was like "The quack attack is back!" and I liked it, so it stuck, haha.

I'm glad you're interested in seeing The Incredible Hulk, bookworm. From your first response, I thought maybe you were going to say that Ed is totally miscast for the role of the Hulk. A lot of people are saying that about him. At first, I was a bit skeptical, too, but Ed's made smart choices in picking his roles so far, so I trust his judgment. In Tyler - ahem, I mean Ed - we trust. Heheh, I'm so obsessed with Fight Club right now. Anyway, here's the trailer for The Incredible Hulk, if you haven't seen it: youtube.com/watch?v=QnBNTtgo2mY It looks a tad bit cheesy, I have to admit, but I'm soo excited for it!! Go Ed! Oh, to update on my Ed list, I just saw Rounders. It's pretty good, but I kind of got sleepy at some parts just because I couldn't get myself to follow all the poker stuff. It got a bit too technical for me. Ed and Matt Damon were so young in it though (and cute too). I have to say that Worm's perhaps the sleaziest, scummiest role that Ed has played yet. He was a total smart-ass but a total coward, too. 1. Fight Club2. The Painted Veil3. American History X4. 25th Hour5. Primal Fear6. Death to Smoochy7. The Illusionist8. Kingdom of Heaven9. Everyone Says I Love You10. Keeping the Faith11. Rounders12. Down in the Valley13. Red Dragon14. The Score15. The Italian Job

Ed as Bruce Banner/Hulk sounds pretty interesting. I'll admit though, I'm not as much into Marvel (much The Hulk) as I am into DC (Batman forever!!) but I'll see this, if only just for Ed. And the first movie was pretty damn awful, so maybe this one will get it right. And also!! I'm totally convinced that Ed could/should play Gordan Freeman from the Half-Life video games (if they ever made a movie off it, that is)! He totally looks like Gordon, doesn't he?     Wouldn't that be perfect, or what? |

And the first movie was pretty damn awful, so maybe this one will get it right. Yeah, I've watched bits and parts of the first Hulk, and it was a bit of a snooze, I'll have to admit. I'm right with you, Kizuna, about Batman. I'm totally excited for The Dark Knight!! (Even more than The Incredible Hulk, I have to say.). Out of all the comic hero movies this summer, I think TDK will be the most successful, next will probably be Iron Man, and then TIH. Definitely see TIH though everyone! Support Ed! I definitely see a similarity, Kizuna. He also looks a bit similar to Hugh Laurie from House, too, don't you think? Maybe a younger version? Anyway, your video game posts are very amusing! I'm the same way when it comes to novels I'm reading. Or when I'm watching other movies... I'm always inserting Cillian or Ed in the roles of other actors. |

Yeah, Gordon also does look quite a bit like Hugh Laurie, LOL. But I just love the idea of Ed as Gordon, though I'll admit that I never played Half-Life, but Ed was such a dead ringer for the character. Yeah, I'm horribly obssessed with video games. It's almost freaky. |

Haley! I know that you wanted to go to the Earth Day concert, and I just found these pics of Ed (and other people) at the concert over at wireimage.com: www.wireimage.com/ItemListings.aspx?ipp=120&igi=313963&nbc1=1 Aw, he looks so cute and down to earth! Gotta love that cap on him.  Wish I could've been there. And here's the link to Ed on this morning's Today Show: youtube.com/watch?v=FdL4nenHsD4 . He's so cute, and I just love hearing him in interviews. He's always so articulate and knowledgeable. I really admire his passion and commitment to environmental issues. |

Yeah I had a few friends go...one of them said, "Oh yeah....so I got to see ED NORTON in person!" When I asked my other friend, "Did you see ED NORTON?!" She said, "Who's Ed Norton?" UGH that made me so mad! Oh yep I definitely watched him on the Today show. Hahaha he was just adorable. I never see him on TV while not in character, so it was nice. AND I DVR'd the Strange Days series...my mom has it playing right now in the other room! Gotta go watch me some Ed Norton in High Def! |
