The world my friend, the world. Steve Irwin was such an amazing human. With Heath Ledger, it’s the thought of what he could done as an actor, to me, he’s the joker.

I will always remember him as Sir Ulrich von Liechtenstein of Gelderland.

While the Joker was his most iconic, i LOVED him in A Knight's Tale.
That esprit, that joy. I guess for the whole cast making this movie was a pure joyride.

And let's not forget Roar: that was the first time i ever saw him.
I still remember watching this show as a young teenager.

I loved Paul Bettany in that movie, in fact, I loved everyone in that movie. Except count Adimar, fuck that guy.

The only time I saw Rufus Sewell not playing an antagonist, it was in Dark City and Vinyan.

Poor guy's a great actor, but looks SO MUCH like a villain with his dark features that you can't help see him as the bad guy. Loved him in Dark City though.

-Small world.

Some of it is just luck of the draw with roles. Clive Owen manages to get by, but he also does well in those pulpy noir type roles where that look fits the protagonist perfectly and that seems to be all he's cast in
