No, no, not repulsive at all, and I quite liked him in Enigma. But did he have the magical level of hotness in Ever After? Nope.
Looks like civilization finally caught up with us.

Buffista Movies 3: Panned and Scanned
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Enigma. Another too-convincing Dougray crazy. He did a great job making me believe he had gone 'round the twist. Fascinating but not attractive to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Did My Best Friend's Wedding really mean them to all be despicable? That's why I hated the movie.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Dougray Scott is hot.
In Ever After, he wore tights. (Also, Drew Barrymore picked up up bodily and he managed to keep a straight face.) In Enigma, probably no tights. In Mission Impossible 2, there was macking on Thandie Newton, but no tights and anyway there was Tom Cruise to bring the picture down.
In sum, I think tights cause hotness.
It's funny, trying to imagine Scott as Wolverine. #1, as your average white man goes, he looks a lot like Hugh Jackman. In a way that is many details the same but the overall picture totally different. #2, I know Jackman already had MOVIE STAR tattooed on his forehead by then, but wasn't X-Men his first movie? Imagine what we'd feel about his hotness level if we'd first gotten to know him through a series of idiotic romantic comedies.

Hey. New board.
I love Ever After with an undying love. Also, its trailer.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.
...wasn't X-Men his first movie?
His first US movie. He'd done a couple in Australia, along with the tv series where he met his wife.
Paperback Hero could be called a romantic comedy...I suppose, though I've never seen it.

I'm SO glad to not be alone in my love of Ever After. When I am in a crap ass mood, I can pop that in and get lost. If I didn't have other plans tonight....

I liked Ever After too. Liked that Dougray Scott's character was basically kinda feckless and self-absorbed but that Cinderella loved him anyway.
Plus, she rescued him, and then she rescued herself. What's not to love?

Paperback Hero was kinda cute. Romantic more than comedy, but cute.
