Harry Potter's teenage crisis...

[dangermousie]

So, have you guys seen the new Daniel Radcliffe pictures (you know which ones). They are on http://www.mugglenet.com though they might be borderline not-worksafe.

Hmmmmm. Little Harry has clearly been camping out at the gym. But much as the body looks nice, the face sort of wrecks any off-color thoughts I might have. Not manly at all, sorry ;) Another five years, maybe. So I guess if I am going to Special Hell for ogling a 17 year old, it won't be for Daniel Radcliffe (now Takizawa Hideaki in Forbidden Love? Maybe).

Equus, huh? I hope he does well as I have realized that after Harry Potter movies I have no idea whether he can act or not.

I don't mind his face (he's fast becoming a very handsome young man - perhaps not quite to my taste, but anyway), but it's the disproportionality between his head and his upper torso I find somewhat funny.

Perhaps it's just the angle of that one picture, but it seriously looks like his head doesn't belong to that body. And that's the difference between teenagers and grown men. He'll probably bulk up a bit when he gets older, which'll even out the proportions. He'll be a prize catch after that. For someone 10 years younger than me. :P

Yeah, DR still needs to grow up a LOT in order to be my type (which, you know, is just as well, as jail avoidance=good thing). I am more amused by the bouhaha over the pics than the pics itself. Whoever cast him is a smart person as I bet the tix are going to go like hotcakes.

[yavannie77.livejournal.com]

Yup, growth is a good thing. :P And yes, I only skimmed through the first page of comments at mugglenet, but that was already enough. I mean seriously, there was even someone who said they wouldn't watch anything he's in from now on. Pft, buh-bye, then.

And the tix will be bought by HP fans who have never before seen a play (sorry if I exaggerate a bit here) and they'll be in for a, umm, surprise with this particular one. ;) Hmm, perhaps I should try to get a ticket, I'll be visiting England in the summer, after all... *grin* Naah, I won't have the money anyway.

God, those pictures look like a manip. That's all I can say after seeing them this morning. Blech.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Heh. Apparently not a manip though :) I am amused by the thought of all the teenie DR fangirls actually trying to see Equus. With the nudity and perversion and horse stabbity.

*starts laughing and cannot stop*

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I know!

Ah am an actoooooooor

[calixa.livejournal.com]

I, too, feel no attraction whatsoever to Danrad... I just don't care, and those pictures scare me. The fangirl frenzy is hilarious, though.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Exactly. But the fangirl frenzy is as if someone threw some fresh meat down the shark tank :D

[leechunsa.livejournal.com]

I am a HP fan but not HIS fan so well. Haha. I'm never going to look at him the same again.

I can see HG peeps going nuts for manips. HAHA.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

ROFL. And yeah, I can see future manips *shudder*

[plazmah.livejournal.com]

I completely agree with this comment. :)

[janlake83.livejournal.com]

yeah harry potter seemed to have been hitting the gym frequently to get that six pack *shudders at the fact i'm checking out a minor*. anywyays, his actually going full oon nude for a play in london and i'm a bit umm disturbed probably because his always going to be harry potter for me

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

*shudders at the fact i'm checking out a minor*.

ROFL. Yeah, not even dramas :)

I am so amused at him being in Equus. Talk about an about-face.

[katranna.livejournal.com]

I love how I've got two posts on my friendspage about it with wildly different opinions. (The other post is all "Hurrah! Hot! Finally legal in the Uk!)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Heeee. I have no objection to his being seventeen (I went into a fangirling frenzy over the Japanese dramaboy Takizawa Hideaki (see icon) who was 17 in Forbidden Love (yeah, he is mid 20s now, which makes me feel better :D). Hotness? I find lacking :D

Harry Potter frenzy? I find quite amusing.

[scottishlass.livejournal.com]

Haven't seen the pics (and I don't think I actually want to see them) but thinking about all those fangirlies wanting to see Equus - oh boy, they are in for a shock. And there is nothing better than Peter Firth as Alan in the movie Equus from the mid 70s.

P.S: As for Hideaki Takizawa - he grows on me - watching Strawberry on the shortcake atm and he really is cute.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I know! If they go to see Equus for 'eye candy' they are in for a shock :)

Re: Takki. Did you see Forbidden Love? It's my favorite of the ones I've seen him in so far. Haven't seen SoS yet though (it's on the very short list though).

[lydzi.livejournal.com]

I watched it and now my eyes are bloody in pain. Remusly, I was all "what the hell?". Ah well, I guess I'l never find Radcliff pleasant. I like him as Harry and that's pretty much all. Even when he does interviews the guy just bugs me for reasons unknown.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I don't care for him as Harry either so...

But that's the only thing I've seen him in and I really dislike the HP movies (though adore the books) so I am willing to give him a benefit of the doubt.

[crumpeteer.livejournal.com]

The body doesn't really match the face in those pictures. I've never been much for Radcliffe.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Neither have I. Oh well, plenty of other fish in the seaaaaaa.

[allbloomedout.livejournal.com]

I've seen those pictures the other day. Made me feel slightly dirty for looking at Harry Potter half naked. LOL, there's special hell? I'll probably join you since i oogled and want to see MatsuJun's incest movie really bad..^_^

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Yup. Special Hell, here we come. Both because of MatsuJun, apparently.

[allbloomedout.livejournal.com]

LOL! Shame on him! He's constantly growing on me now that I watch him in Gokusen too. The more I seem him the more I oogle...

[lazypadawan.livejournal.com]

I posted about this yesterday. *Shudder.*

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Well, at least the producers of the play are really smart. They are going to get a sold out run (just as you posted: a clever marketing ploy).
