Also going beyond Hugh Laurie's incredible sexiness.

Karen, ...Haha Trisha, drool does not cover it. ^_^<br /><br />Karen, not cliche. He's a classic. ;-)<br /><br />Theresa that would make for some interesting reading. <br /><br />Hehehe Sarah, I tend to fixate for a little longer. Especially if things happen that reminds me of the character. <br /><br />Hahaha Christine, it can make me a little sad too. <br /><br />Judy I liked that post you did. ^_^ I tend to squee about the best-friends and badasses, though. Generally not the heroes, for some reason. Unless the hero is badass. <br /><br />Hart, maybe I could, but his own story has been done as well. As well as the sequels. Sigh.<br /><br />Cherie, as it happens, I did download Phantom of the Opera by Leroux. Perhaps I will rest it until after I finished Les Miserables. <br /><br />Madeline, I love it. (As if I didn't make that obvious before. ^_^)<br /><br />Jessica I love that line! It's one of my all time favorites.<br /><br />Aaaaah... Sorry Steph... You made me google him again. ^_^<br /><br />E.J. I agree 100% Minnie was perfect in the role. But Gerard Butler was sheer genius. <br /><br />Hahaha Tony that's so true. <br /><br />Hahaha TayLyee, I'd never suggest otherwise. <br /><br />Kristina I also watched it multiple times. Gets me every time. <br /><br />Myne I also always root for him. Raoul is such a fool in comparison. A spoilt but big child. <br /><br />Julie, if you like musicals, Phantom will be more than worth your time. :-)<br /><br />Summer, there is definitely that aspect to my squeeage.<br /><br />Erin, now that you mention it, Kevin Kline's character in The Usual Suspects stuck with me as well. But I'm not saying why. <br /><br />Raelyn I actually did download the book (Gaston Leroux's) from Project Gutenberg and will be going to see the stage version in November. The South African production's Phantom is said (by Andrew Lloyd Webber) to be the best one ever. So I would love to see if he lives up to the hype. <br /><br />Lol Ali WATCH IT!!!! It's wonderful... ^_^ <br /><br />Ah yes, Johnny Depp's characters tend to stick with me too. Thanks for dropping by, Lee. <br /><br />Michael I am so jealous! <br /><br />Lynda... Yes you should. ;-)Misha Gerrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06364173848456424521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5190412120537448720.post-75616450377230905692011-06-21T10:13:55.907+02:002011-06-21T10:13:55.907+02:00erm, cough, I've never actually watched the Ph...erm, cough, I've never actually watched the Phantom of the Opera in any of its forms.

Christine was a bloody idiot. And, if you want him out of your head, I strongly suggest not reading Susan Kay's PHANTOM or Gaston Leroux's PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. In other words, they are worth reading but just add to the obsession...seriously. <br /><br />But I know what you mean. Characters get into your head, but they are "been there, done that" type.
