Of the Ewan-ness

[culuyetille]

♥s Ewan

ewan_playground really is a brilliant place to be, people are lovely, the atmosphere is fantastic and it caters to my Ewan-needs daily. When I joined in, about a month ago, I had meagre 70 Ewan pics. Today, thanks to the Playground, Eccentricity Online and Ewan McGregor(dot)Net, I'm now at 170. I say that calls for celebrating! :)

First off: check out Moulin Rouge! a recap with screencaps from the film and humorous captions. Made me laugh out loud very, very often :)

Ewan is a really fantastic bloke. He's a fabulously talented actor, he's got his priorities sorted out and well defined and, from what we see in interviews and other whatnot, he seems to be a very nice person, friendly and amusing.

To top it all, he's gorgeous in a knickers-melting, squee-inductive sort of way and, much to our delight, not at all averse to showing off his every inch on screen. He's also amusingly prone to talking about his willy on interviews. I've knicked bits:

On Star Wars: "I'm just looking for that moment to drop my Jedi knickers and pull out my real lightsaber."

Or this one:

"Women are always being asked to get their kit off, so it's only fair that I get mine out. So tell your readers I'm making a feminist stance by shaking my willy around as much as possible. I'M DOING IT FOR THE SISTERS!"

*GRINS* We're surely grateful, hon. Here's on Velvet Goldmine:

Ewan's sometimes unsure whether he's actually flashed in a film or not - "it probably came out somewhere" - but in Velvet Goldmine he waved away at all hours of the day and night, considerably beyond the call of duty.

"The concert stuff was where I really got my rocks off. They couldn't say "Be here", "Be over there". I said, "Just light the stage because I don't know where I'm gonna be", and I lost the plot completely. I dived into the audience just after pulling everything out again. Todd [Haynes, the director] said, "There's a field, an open-air concert, and it's full of hippies." I come on doing all this stuff and they boo me and tell me to get off. And he said just moon them at the end of "TV Eye".

"But I remembered this thing where Iggy just undid his pants, stood with his hand down the front of his trousers for ages, just staring them out. And started jiggling about, and his pants started to move down slowly, like this." Ewan starts trying to dance out of his kidneys.

"So I did this and started to pull my willy about and told them to f*** off. It came out of nowhere and there was a dead silence after he said "Cut!" But I had to do it again and again all night long from all different angles, so must have liked it.

Want to see the final (totally mind-boggling hot) result? Curt Wild performs TV EYE.

And youtube will be the death of me:

* Film Four ad. Featuring tomato!Ewan. Quote:

Ewan: "Why do I have to be the tomato? Am I a fruit, am I a vegetable? I don't know who I am!"
Judi Dench: "But that's the mystery of you!"

And there's this tiny special bit *grins*

And now to the main event of this post... a picspam! Posted at ewan_playground. NOT DIAL-UP FRIENDLY, I mean it. There are thirty-seven pictures, and many of them are big.

( Fake Cut to Thirty-Seven Ewan pictures )

PS: Okay, I know this will sound more than a little insane, but just bear with me on this one... I've been concocting a theory. It was only recently that I found out that Ewan's middle name is GORDON.

*pause for predictable shock from the reader*

My first reaction was WTF?!, as prettily illustrated by Christian:



Then came 'eew'.



Until I put two and two together,



*pets Ew for illustrating the point* Anyhow, I remembered that I'd found out another strange thing about Ewan lately... That sometimes, he shaves the gorgeous beard and leaves only a moustache. Which looks, well, odd. See for yourselves:



And then it suddenly became crystal clear: everything was connected! The moustache weirdness must clearly be blamed on Gordon, regardless of whatever Ewan was filming at the time that probably demanded the bloody moustache. who totally is a sepparate entity with no aesthetical sense at all. *nods to self* What do you think?

LOL honey the pornstache was for a role in Miss Potter. His upcoming film about the life of the author Beatrix Potter. As soon as the film wrapped I think the pornstach vanished. I vaguely remember reading that it annoyed Ewan.

Hey you should hear what Christine Vachon says about Ewan flashing his willy inthe concert scene.......*races off to bookcase.......clears throat*

"Once again, Ewan is throwing himself into it body and soul; two cameras help ensure we get him on film before he burns himself out. In the second take, Ewan not only moons the audience but turns around, kicks off his pants, and treats the crowd to his member as well. (I'd heard that in The Pillow Book, Ewan was so well-endowed that his member deserved seperate billing. I'm not disappointed - nor is the crowd, which goes wild.)

Lucky bastards......

*takes note of the term pornstache* Well, I'm relieved. I was afraid it was Ewan's own doing, it's just so weird. Makes him look funny. *giggles*

OOOOH. Damn. ...why wasn't I sitting about in some random field in 1998, dressed up as a hippie and getting paid to see Ewan hopping about stark nekkid?!

And JRM in a dress. *grins*

YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYYYYYYY!

A Ewan post! A Ewan post! And he SO deserves it! *beams*

*laughs and huggles* Great one, love!! :) And I'd really love to write more, but atm it's just impossible. :( I hope to get back again soon.

Wheee *HUGGLES* yes, an Ewan post. I've been putting this one together for over a week. Tomato!Ewan just cracks me up every time (is it too wrong that I want his shoes?), and I own an woolen sweater very like the one Ewan's wearing in the 'two' picture. Go me! ;)

*huggles more*

[irrlicht74.livejournal.com]

Yes, I can see that you put great effort into that post. :) And I really appreciate it. Must be one of the best Ewan posts ever. A whole week! Wow! I'd never been that patient. :) I want everything NOW and INSTANTLY. :D

No. It's definitely not wrong to want his shoes. I'll send you a pic of Jesse Spencer where I wantHIM HIS shoes. ;)

*chuckles* For me it's quite common to take days or even a week to prepare a post. I'm lazy that way and I always multi-task when I'm on the computer, so it takes some time for me to put together the lots of things I like to have when I write rec posts ;)

*curious* What are his shoes like?

[irrlicht74.livejournal.com]

Like I said, I admire your patience. :)

Oops! I forgot. *runs off to e-mail the pic*

Best. Post. Ever.

*huggles* whee, we keep finding stuff we have in common! (Tho about 1/3 of the women in the globe must have an Ewan-fetish in common, heh). Those ads are brilliant, and my, am I too much of a loon because I'd like to cuddle a tomato? o.O
