1. Interest 13 braveheart
One of my fave movies - in my opinion, one of the best of many 'epic' films to come out in the last 10 years despite the fact so many people slag it off and whinge about how historically inaccurate it is. Who cares?! It's loads of fun! :D If someone asked me to describe the film in 1 word, it'd be 'freeeeeeeedom!!' - let's face it, that's the movie's theme! Fave quote would be from David O'Hara (Stephen): [to Mel Gibson's William Wallace] "The Lord tells me He can get me out of this mess, but He's pretty sure you're f**ked." [laughs] He stole the show! :)

2. Interest 26 david wenham
Loved him as Faramir in TTT and ROTK - loved the added scene in 'Towers with him and Sean Bean; the casting people did a good job since they both look quite similar and now can't think of anyone else who could have played the role. :)

3. Interest 39 ewan mcgregor
First noticed him in Moulin Rouge and fell in love with his lovely wee singing voice and cheeky grin :D and I adore the Scottish accent! He also seems very down-to-earth on chat shows and friendly with the fans.

4. Interest 52 haldir
A personal fave character of mine in the LOTR movies, the first 2 especially, as they had him killed off in 'Towers *fist* I really liked his snide little comments about poor Gimli breathing so loud (both in book & movie).

5. Interest 65 jim caviezel
First seen him playing Christ in Passion of the Christ - fantastic, but very hard to watch in bits, movie - and thought he was extremely convincing and seemingly very dedicated to the role. Then managed to catch him in The Count of Monte Cristo and well.....I came, I saw, I swooned.....Just watch Jim in this (particularly when fighting Guy Pearce) and you'll know what I mean *winks* The man has got talent, no denying it but boy, he is very underrated as an actor in my humble opinion. *nods*

6. Interest 78 lotr fanfiction
Something which I got into I think during the summer of 2003, just months before the final 'Rings film came out. I thought a lot that I came across were brilliant and HAD to print some out and take them with me on holiday where I even tried having a go myself but failed miserably. Who knows, perhaps one day I'll pick it up again...

7. Interest 91 paul mcgann
Heh, funny coincidence that this ahem, 'interest' was chosen eh? :P Well, what can I say? The man is stunningly GORGEOUS and just turns my brain to mush when he comes on screen, eg. today whilst watching The Rainbow. *thud* And the man CAN act, he ain't just a pretty face like, many of these Hollywood 'boys', and gets better looking with age. I'm quite jealous hahah. :p My first reaction was "Wha-?!" when I read that he had been the original choice for 'Sharpe' and the aftermath of what happened when he was replaced. Think I was first 'introduced' to Mr McGann in late 2003 via Hornblower - then recognised him at Memorabilia in Birmingham, November '03, wandering around the tables, and wish I'd been more familiar with who he was at that time and taken a photo! *headdesk* Have recently discovered re-runs of HH on RTE 2 on Sky, so will be looking out for him in the later episodes and hope to meet him for real at a booksigning in the Forbidden Planet branch in Cardiff next month. *crosses fingers* I just hope my brain doesn't die on me if/when I see him in person and make me look like a babbling idiot!! :D

8. Interest 104 robin tunney
Came across her in The Craft and thought she was really pretty, but also a great actress in other movies like End of Days and Empire Records. Just wonder why she hasn't been in anything for a while...*ponders*

9. Interest 117 the mummy
Laughed out loud during this, and just love it for the action/adventure genre and went to see it several times when it hit cinemas. :D Very Indiana Jones-like and funny in parts and to be honest, thought the plot was quite original. ;)

10. Interest 130 winona ryder
Another gorgeous and great actress - I like that little elfin quality about her and she has beautiful big doe eyes. She has an amazing on-screen presence :)
