A few weeks ago, we watched A History of Violence. Last night, while we were watching Eastern Promises, I realized that Viggo Mortensen is hot in a really unusual way.

Anyone else feel this way? :D

    I don't know about all that, but I thought both the movies mentioned were great....Oh and I have a feeling that D2D will particularly enjoy the shower fight scene in Eastern Promises ;)..

    I was not aware of him until I started hearing his name attached to the Lord of the Rings movies... I am suddenly very interested in watching those movies now! :D

    yes yes yes yes yes! :D

    I've loved Viggo for years, even my husband knows that Viggo would be my "freebie". Not only is he easy on the eye, he is also an artist, poet, and photographer.

    Oh....you can catch a full frontal Viggo in "The Indian Runner" and he has a nude scene in "Eastern Promises". :D

    near the end of The Two Towers? I love that scene.

    I don't think men fully appreciate Viggo.....unless they are gay. ;)

    I thought Eastern Promises sucked. A History of Violence was much better, even though that movie still moved somewhat slow. Eastern Promises, I can't believe I waited for something to happen in it and all that happened was a dude fighting naked in the shower. Completely unnecessary.

    The issue of "good naked" and "bad naked" I thought was made clear to the world in Seinfeld, but Eastern Promises definitely showed the "bad" naked.

    I like him looking a bit rough and ready (LOTR type look). Don't like it when he's too 'clean'.. looks a bit boring.

    clean, dirty.....i'll take him. ;)


    i forgot about the indian runner shame on me! he really has been in soooo many films and managed to remian rather 'unknown' for a long time up until recently. he is fantastic, on all fronts. :D great actor, beauitful man...and as you said, the complete package - an artist to boot! gotta love that.


    in regards to age, some PEOPLE age very well and are beautiful at any age. viggo fits that category thus far, as does our dear ed vedder, etc. there are women 50+ who are still gorgeous as well. age alone would not discount someone in my eyes from the *hot* category.
    Stay with me...

    So true.

    I said men because I was thinking in terms of my own attraction, but there are tons of women in their 50's and 60's that just glow!

    Helen Mirren is a freakin' babe! :D Sally Field is gorgeous, too. Just to name a couple off the top of my head.

    Hehe while I prefer the rugged look I do have to agree I would take him either way. He is not quite Clive Owen but pretty close :D

    hahahaha...that's right! what a lame-ass flick, but hell yea......i think? that's the first flick i ever saw viggo in, or at least took notice since he had a large role. and YES...he was damn hot in that too. :D






    and you KNOW i will share my thoughts on eastern promises as soon as i see it - weigh in on viggo ;)...and on the film. :p


    btw - i actually find viggo hotter than clive. viggo has a bit more 'classical' good looks imho, more refined features...and ooooooooooooooo...those cheekbones! :eek: YUMMM!

    I also thought Eastern Promises was BORING!
    Believe it or not, the new Kevin Costner movie(just out on DVD now) is AMAZING, he is a killer...

    mr. brooks?
    both my husband and i thought it was an absolute piece of shite, and i do believe it was overall panned by critics as well. talk about laaaammmmmmmeee.


    but seeing that you LIKED that, but found eastern promises boring while many here loved it and seemed to get much critical praise.....makes me feel more confident that i too shall love it. so thanks for your assessment. :)

    saw eastern promises last night. it was definitely good, but to some degree...i was a bit disappointed, not quite as good as i expected. well done, but really didn't hook me in, kinda on an even keel....not really 'dramatic' for me. viggo and naomi watts both solid, but yes.....just not enough intrigue for me. good film, just not great.


    and in regards to the steam room scene.......:eek: not to get into any spoilers, but sure....damn fine and all...but so, so, sooooo fucking brutal bit difficult to 'enjoy' from a purely eye candy/visual perspective.



    btw - in regards to being close to 50...that man is hotter and in far better shape than most men half his age. so hell yes, age IS just a number. as i get older, i love that. ;)

    I see my new boyfriend got nominated for an Oscar. :D


    d2d - I think I know what you mean about Eastern Promises. For me, it was the performances that made it really great. AND, I agree about the steam room scene. It was a strange mix of trying to check him out and wincing from the violence at the same time!! It was hard to watch, and also hard not to. ;)

    Love Love Love Viggo!!

    Mainly since I first saw his rugged, sexy, dirty self in LOTR I was in Love!

    One of my Fav Viggo Movies Ladies......Hidalgo.
    Its a Film based on a true story about a Man who enters the most treacherous and dangerous Horse race across the Arabian desert. Set in the late 1800's.
    Its fantastic! and he's all dirty in this one too.
    Ive seen it more times than I can remember.... and yes, I am bias when it comes to Hotness like Viggo!
    he who forgets will be destined to remember
