(I went and bought the photos above, fr'instance, so I didn't have to take them down. Even though those are low res pictures anyhow.)<br /><br />I'm a strong advocate of Intellectual Property protection -- since that is how I earn my bread. But IP is one of those tangled subjects and I never know where to put my feet in that particular quagmire. <br /><br />I don't get mad at folks who take a fairly loose interpretation, but I try to be strict myself while law and common usage are being sorted out. <br /><br />So. No movie star pictures. :{ Not even really cool ones.<br /><br />Rats.Jo Bournehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13457862962618886252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15617001.post-39955251188552371422011-04-09T10:29:11.629-04:002011-04-09T10:29:11.629-04:00Yes indeed.

In his roles, he manages to convey intensity, raw intelligence, anger and humor convincingly--often in some combination. He's even played a sociopath. He also has the right look, though Whishaw, remarkably, is probably even thinner than Adrian.<br /><br />Of course, you can hardly use an actor on a trading card, and in any case, it probably wouldn't be a good idea to use a face that is associated with several other roles.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00480968583416513772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15617001.post-80600442563764711562011-04-08T11:29:33.819-04:002011-04-08T11:29:33.819-04:00Yes.

Probably C, because he seems to go better with B.<br /><br />So I am all revved up to do this and ready to roll.

In my mind, Adrian will always look like Rudolph Nureyev. I've included an atrocious URL below, but I think if you Google "Rudolph Nureyev by Lord Snowden" you'll get to the same place. Plus! Picture of Naked Nureyev with that Google search. <br /><br />Anyway, for the faint of heart: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4gF6YuGUwVM/S4rbOBd7xoI/AAAAAAAANGc/CK97fwZLRKM/s1600/aaa2-snowdon-rudolph-nureyev.jpg<br /><br />If I had to choose from the six above, I guess I'd go with B. But his eyes aren't arresting enough. C has the eyes, but his face is too narrow. And he's not handsome enough. <br /><br />Is there one of these polls for Doyle and Grey?
