As I sit watching Stuart Little on DVD with my kids, I find that I am mostly enjoying the voice of Michael J. Fox as Stuart. No, no, I don’t have a thing for a small, young mouse. That would be too weird. But, hearing the voice reminds me of Michael and what a crush I had on him when he was on Family Ties back in the 80’s.
MJF’s most recent acting job on Boston Legal a few seasons ago was also a reminder of how much I like the actor. His character of Daniel was just as engaging and attractive as Alex P. Keaton.
Now, I would have thought that I would enjoy watching Hugh Laurie as Mr. Little, but honestly, those Littles are more than a little annoying. They are just too good to be true. I know that’s part of the comedy of the piece, though. Anyway, I can close my eyes and listen to MJF’s voice until it’s time to cook dinner. Who’s your favorite male voice in a kid’s movie?

There is an actor who is good looking, but is an incredibly wooden actor. He has hardly any facial expressions whatsoever. I don’t understand why he’s even been cast in so many movies. It has to be his looks, because it sure isn’t his acting. I don’t mind looking at him, though. What about you?
Alright, I guess I have to name him, really or it’s not fair to you readers. It’s Clive Owen. He was in a movie with Julie Roberts, even. He never moves his facial muscles. It’s really weird. But, he’s still good looking.
So, he falls into the “Hi, why don’t you just stand there and look pretty” category. And, yes, I realize this is reverse sexism. But, is that not equality? When women can discriminate against men in the same way that they discriminate against us? Okay, I know, we need to take the high road . . . Then, again, this whole blog is about objectifying men and that’s probably bad, but geez, it’s fun.
But, really, I don’t know what to do with this guy. He pops up in my mind from time to time and he’s good looking, but I just can’t get him into any of my fantasies.
