heh. I love Just friends too, Chonies. And my girlie hard-on for Ryan Reynolds is well documented. I just think he's the bees knees.

I can't help but have a soft spot for funny, intelligent and handsome Canadians. He is no exception. "Yeah, I did want to beat Tom Cruise. I wasn't talking about the driving though."  I may have a new signature line. |

His facial expressions during the office scene in The Proposal (when Bullock's character announces their "engagement" to her boss) are absolutely hysterical. He's very good at turning from smart alec to office lackey to puzzled victim in a split second.

I thought he came across really well on Top Gear. Very fun and endearing. The Tom Cruise line cemented it for me. Plus, he was the fastest! Go Ryan!
I've always pretty ambivalent about him -- liking him but not really thinking about him that much one way or the other. His appearance on the show definitely moved me over into more actively appreciating him.

I saw Safe House last weekend ( The Vow was sold out  ) and it was a solid action movie. His role could've been played by just about any 30ish actor, though. I wish he would do another Rom Com, a good one, because he is very funny and charming. Safe House has pretty much saved his career as a leading man/prospective A-lister, after the disasters of Green Lantern and The Change-Up. Safe House will easily make over 100 million in America alone. Denzel to the rescue. I think Reynolds will be encouraged to tone down the smarmy "comic persona" that comes along with his romantic comedies (and that he wrongly injected into action films like Green Lantern and Blade Trinity), and start playing more dramtically earnest parts like Safe House. |

Then I turn it off because the rest just doesn't compare to the comic perfection of those scenes. I'm also one of the few who owns Just Friends. |

I really love him in Definitely, Maybe. He was great in that movie and I... well, I cried at the end.

I think he's hilarious, and the "smarmy" sense of humor doesn't bug me because RR seems exactly aware of what he's doing. Waiting really turned my stomach, but his sarcastic sucking-up to the hateful customers just slays me every time.

Who knew he was that eager to remarry? A wary congratulations to the pair.

If I were Alanis Morrissette, I'd be kinda pissed that he didn't marry and divorce me first.  |
