Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I know Amber Benson didn't get dressed in the most flattering outfits on Buffy, but I remember being shocked at how tiny she was when I saw her a Wizard World Chicago ages ago.
Kevin Smith, on the other hand, looked how I expected. (And I found him just walking nonchalantly though the crowd of geeks at the end of the day with no one else even seeming to notice he was there rather amusing.)
That's pretty much the extent of my celebrity encounters. Summer Glau showed up at the one Serenity fan pre-screening I didn't attend and Joss dropped by the fan table a bunch of us were running at the aforementioned Wizard World the day I wasn't there.

Nathan Fillion: chunky side of normal, refreshingly.
Tarantino: way taller than I'd thought. Looks actually to be taller than claimed 6'1".
Alexis Denisof: waaaaaaaaaay better looking in person.
Amy Acker: actually the only actress I can think of who looks larger in person.
Djimon Hounsou: possibly the most attractive human being on the planet holy crap nothing does him justice, and ita agreed with me so I AM NOT WRONG.
This concludes my infodump on actors I've seen in person and have opinions about.

The only really famous actor I have seen in person close up was Jessica Tandy, and she was about 85 and, obviously, tiny.

Denisof is also much taller than I expected - If his claimed 6'1" isn't accurate he can't be fudging by more than an inch - his eyes were at least level with mine.
As opposed to Christian Kane, who looked me right in the chin with the aid of some impressively-heeled cowboy boots. 5'9" my ass!

A friend was posting yesterday about this scandinavian fellow who is on Game of Thrones and just won some 'strongest man' competition. He's listed at 6'9" and 415 pounds, and my goodness that is a large human being. Ah, here he is: Hafthor Bjornsson: [link]

He was up on a stage and seated most of the time, so it was hard for me to tell (his hair! SO AMAZING!). Sadly for Joss, he was next to Denisof, and wow. Contrast.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Entirely non-actor-related, but amusing since flea is here: my brother is 6'2", and I view him as an Ent-like beast. Until last summer, when he was standing next to flea's husband (who is, I think, 2 or 3 inches taller than 6'2"). That is literally the only time my brother has looked short as an adult.
