Wow! I finally got caught up on all the reading for this thread. Let me start by adding my applause for starting this wonderful thread. While I will notice a guy's hotness, if there is nothing more, then he won't hold my interest for very long at all. Same goes for threads that are substantiated around a guy's hotness. hehe
Now if I may, here are my $0.02:
I don't really have a fav CSI:NY ep yet. I'm rather fond of all of them. I'd say at the top of my list though are the ones with Eddie Furlong. His character was GREAT and he played it VERY well and the rest of the cast was fan-f******-TASTIC in them!!!
As for his movies, well to be honest I haven't watched any of them beginning to end. I've only seen bits and pieces. Ohh, the horror! THE HORROR! No really though I plan on seeing them once I get a dvd player hooked up at my house. We have VHS but it doesn't work very well. I do have 2 dvd players but haven't really had the time (or space for that matter) to set 'em up.
Regarding roles to see him in: I honestly can see him in just about ANY role, as long as it's written right. He is definitely one actor that I cannot typecast. he reminds me of actors like Tom Hanks & Robin Williams. They can play just about any role, sometimes more than one in a film at a time. hehe
I think someone metioned him playing a character like in "Philadelphia"? Yeah, I could TOTALLY see that!
If a comedy, something that's satirical but not so much something National Lampoonish (unless it's Van Wilder hehe). I don't think I could picture him in a comedy that's Jim Carrey or Michael Myers-ish.
I could definitely see him in an action flick, but not something where it's all explosions and car chases with porn quality dialogue. It would have to have a great script.
In a romantic film? I could see it if it was something like "Mr & Mrs Smith" or "10 Things I Hate About You", a situation where the main characters hate each other at first but they end up falling for each other. Once again, it would have to be written right (no teeny bopper love stuff like what's parodied in "Not Another Teen Movie"). I dunno.. I could possibly see him in something like The Lake House too... I think he'd prolly pull it off better than Keanu did, altho Keanu was awesome in it.
As a bad guy: when I read you guys talking about that I immediately pictured Keifer Sutherland's characer in "Eye for an Eye". Not as a pedophile rapist but for the sheer sinister quality of the character. *shivers* I think his intensity would play very well into that. I could also see him playing Kaiser Soze or something of that nature. BTW that movie made me fall in love with Kevin Spacey as an actor... wow...
I am also with everyone who hopes that they don't turn Danny into eye candy and nothing else. That's just a waste of talent. Any hot guy could have played Danny, "the sexy CSI guy"... Carmine Giovinazzo made him Detective Danny Messer, Forensic Scientist/BAD ASS. :lol: I hate to say it because the rest of the cast is so great, but thinking of him leaving made me think of when David Duchovny left "The X-Files". They tried to continue with it, but the cast chemistry wasn't the same. I could be wrong, but I don't think it would ever be the same if he left... or if Gary, Melina, Eddie or Hill left for that matter. Their chemistry together feels right and works very well. I'm not trying to bash Anna by not including her in that, but the writers haven't given her much to work with on her character which leaves me feeling like she's "the new girl", which shouldn't be happening after she's been on the show this long.
