I loved Empire of the Sun, too, (and WOW has Bale matured since then!!!! :) ) but another of my fav Bale roles was in Little Women. I think it shows some nice versatility when an actor can switch seamlessly into something a little more period. In fact, I think it would be a really nice stretch for Tom to try something with a bit of a period flavor to it--not Shakespearean, but something with a bit of Victorian or Period decorum....something Pride and Prejudice--y or even umm....North and South--y. Aw heck, I'd just settle to see him in a high-necked Great Coat, white gloves, billowy black cloak, (and atop a 17-hand Black Fresian Horse... just to complete the visual)...heeee.
Anyway, it would be a GREAT contrast to Clark, anyhow. Lol.

Christian Bale seriously oozes sex appeal. That man can stop traffic with his look! Tom Welling is unbelievably attractive AND has sex appeal to boot and could stop his own traffic as well. A movie with these two actors would be my undoing!

I am really out of the loop I don't think I've seen any of Bale's movies. Maybe that's why I'm only mildly impressed. I'll probably be a fan after Batman though. You guys don't really think he's as good looking as Tom do you? Well face wise at least? HIs body looks great.

A personal aside: however, that particular scene kinda bothered me a bit (although it was only very little a bit) because it was so obvious to me that he wasn't really chained up.

I mean, not that I would want Tom uncomfortable or anything, but him hanging onto the ladder like that was a dead give away that was all that he was doing... couldn't they fake it better?

Given a choice of the two (in my dreams, right ;)) I'd absolutely take Tom.. first. His looks are about as perfect as they come.

IMO, both men have that certain unquantifiable "it" that we've talked about so often here. Sex appeal, charisma, mesmerizing presence... and of course, hot bodies. :) Bale has proven himself on the screen time and time again.. hopefully Welling will do the same in time.

Anyway, we were watching Visage (you know when Tina Greer came back and Whitney kicked it). During the tease showing Whitney running for his life, she actually paused the DVD on a frame of Whitney, and his very dirty face, and then turned to me and said:

"Boys are cuter when their faces are dirty."

I couldn't stop laughing...

She got upset but I explained that it was funny because it was so true. What a smart girl I have.

So, long story short: I also think boys look cuter when their faces are dirty.

Mmmmm... James, do you mind if I'm picky?

You need to adjust your settings when you scan magazines to get rid of those little dots...

What kind of scanner you got?

I can probably help, especially if it's an HP (since I work there, those are the ones I'm familiar with...) so let me know if you're interested in learning how to get rid of the dots.

Just let me know which scanner you got.

[jas01724]

You need to adjust your settings when you scan magazines to get rid of those little dots...
Eh, no I don't. The picture was about 1x2 inches, that's the printer moire pattern, not a scan pattern. Any good hi-res scanner would scan that picture as nothing more than a jumble of printed dots.

[AgentPat]

That, and I know the person who made it - or at least the site it was originally made for.It's a manip? Really? I forget where I scarfed it from.

Ah vell... It's still nice to look at.

[triplet]

Eh, no I don't. The picture was about 1x2 inches, that's the printer moire pattern, not a scan pattern. Any good hi-res scanner would scan that picture as nothing more than a jumble of printed dots.
Ahhh.... that's where you're wrong, grasshopper.

Let the officially certified scanner geek explain:

The moire pattern is accentuated by the scanner because there are dots on the page (magazine and newspaper is printed with a process called half-toning which is just a series of dots laid upon each other) and the scanner captures images in dots. So the dots on the page actually get enhanced by the scanning process.

I bet the original didn't look that bad.

You can change a setting which will help the scanner makes adjustments for this affect.

I'm not trying to be a show off, nor am I trying to be critical. I sincerely just want to help you get better results...

I tested scanners for years and still work with HP scanners and still deal with image quality from time to time.

[jas01724]

You can change a setting which will help the scanner makes adjustments for this affect.
On a Canon that's the descreen option, and I always have it on. :p The larger than normal dots on that particular scan are because I was lazy and scanned at lower resolution... which is still a scanning no-no of course.

Even on full resolution, the best scanning this picture would do is this:

Better, granted, but still not good. The paper that image was printed on was tissue thin, and the print quality was terrible. Does not a good scan make, even when you do know what you're doing.

The paper that image was printed on was tissue thin, and the print quality was terrible.A neat little trick I've discovered that works pretty good when scanning images on thin paper is to put a piece of BLACK construction paper right behind the image you're scanning. It cuts down on the see-through tendency pretty effectively.

I've found that white works better as long as it's very thick; black blocks the light more easily, but can also darken the scan.

[triplet]

On a Canon that's the descreen option, and I always have it on. :p The larger than normal dots on that particular scan are because I was lazy and scanned at lower resolution... which is still a scanning no-no of course.

I didn't mean to sound like I thought you were an idiot or something, but most people have no idea what to do with their scanners....

Sounds like you do.

[jas01724]

Sounds like you do.
Yeah. :D No offense taken, in case it was implied at all. I scanned that one when I had an older computer that took a long time to complete hi-res scans - scanning it now, I'd use AT LEAST 600dpi, but at that time it would have taken about half an hour to do that. The computer was that slow.

Besides, I don't have scans on my site anymore, and I don't see why other sites should have the best quality scans that I could get - it's not like they'd have thanked me for sitting around twiddling my thumbs whilst the scanner did its business. ;)

[AgentPat]

I've found that white works better as long as it's very thick; black blocks the light more easily, but can also darken the scan.Emitted light from the scanner passing through the page and reflecting back is the reason WHY you'd want to use a black backing: to prevent it. Otherwise, you end up scanning the image you want as well as an image you don't: the print on the opposite side of the sheet. A white backing will only compound the problem since white is more reflective. ;)

That said, if there's no print on the opposite side of the image you're scanning, then it wouldn't matter. Nor would it matter if the scanned original is completely opaque. :)

[jas01724]

A white backing will only compound the problem since white is more reflective. ;)
You'd think so, but i've tried with white, black, grey, brown... white works *for me* - but only if it's thick and non-glossy, like mount board or some such. You can think i'm whacked if you like. ;) Sometimes experience can beat the physics!

Well day-uum :rolleyes: LOL
Post some cool pics here if ya got 'em. And Tommy Lee Jones doesn't count! :mad: ;)

[jas01724]

Did YOU originally post 'em James?Yes and no. I showed them to about three people (can't remember how many) by email, rather than actually posting them, and those people promised not to share them - I HATE paparazzi photos, so I didn't want them getting out. One of those people ended up being completely untrustworthy, and now those pictures are everywhere. I know they're the copies I shared, because they have a watermark on them.

Are there more?You won't like the answer to this anymore than Serene did, but yes, there are. And I won't be sharing them because the last time I shared something ... well, y'know. I don't like paparazzi pics, I wish none existed, but they do - and I won't be responsible for anymore of them doing the rounds.

Paparazzi should be strung by the gonads.

[AgentPat]

Okay, fair enough. But why did you spend so much time removing the press company watermarks? I wouldn't have bothered - I only take the time to make images "pretty" if I post them publicly, but that's just me.

Can you say where they were originally scanned from? Tabloid?

A friend sent me the link to aol videos.. where there are 4 nice short interview vids with TW. Actually, three are with Tom alone, and the 4th is interviews with several of the cast members of CBTD. Tom is interviewed with Hillary Duff and Piper Perabo (sp?), and he's sporting a very Relic-like hairdo. :) The other 3 are mostly Tom, but also some KK and MR (who is hysterical). They are not new, but still very interesting to hear.. particularly Tom's comments on the internet fans, and superhero movies.

I think you have to have AOL to see these... but maybe not. If anyone knows of a way I can try and copy them to share with non-AOLers, I'd be willing to try.

All very good, but that first one was most interesting...

At the very end of the interview, Tom says "I don't really get into that..." (meaning the internet, I suppose given the context) and then goes on to say that Al & Miles have someone that sits around on the internet all day and keeps tabs on what people are saying...

Makes me wonder if some of the spoilers are leaked on purpose early to guage fan reaction... It must be. After all a lot of the spoilers later turn out to be "false"...

And it even appears this season that they may have pushed back Unsafe due to negative reaction to certain alleged plot points...

Very interesting.

If he did.. it would only make me even more sad that TW isn't playing Supes. That would have been a movie worth flying to the premiere of. (I'm not kidding either).

Amazing what good casting can do for a film, eh? Yeah, it can make or break a film, something a lot of people over on the other forum choose to ignore...

Would Casablanca have been Casablanca if Ronald Reagan played Rick?

Or would Gone With The Wind had been Gone With the Wind if Bette Davis had played Scarlet?

Prolly not.

I don't know for sure whether Singer's choice will do a face plant, only time will tell at this point.

However, I do know that right now excitement and anything having to do with HWSNBN are mutually exclusive.

To get back on topic: It woulda probably helped if HWSNBN were truly drool worthy, but IMO he's really not.

Cut body? Yes, and apparently getting better even though he's lost too much weight....

Attractive? Yes.

Drool worthy? Definitely not.

I'm not a Keaton fan... I never loved his Batman even though I feel I'm probably in the minority.

Keaton has an intensity that I find very appealing, whether he's doing drama (Clean and Sober, My Life, Pacific Heights) or comedy (Mr. Mom, Night Shift, BeetleJuice). The trailers for his new movie "White Noise" look really good. :)

I never bought him as physically imposing either and he was never sexy.

Batman should be sexy, that's one thing that Cloony had all over Kilmer and Keaton. Too bad he had to suffer being The Dark Knight in such an awful film....

Bale, on the other hand, is physically imposing and intense and sexy.

It's so great when they cast someone with ALL the necessary ingredients. Look at the overwhelming fan approval. This is a prime example of how important casting can be in the pre-buzz and subsequent anticipation of a film.
*ahem* :rolleyes:

[rumpuso]

When Michael Keaton was cast as Batman, I thought that his casting was really strange because at the time he was especially known for being a comic actor...and he was good at it. I just couldn't imagine him pulling off a role such as Batman. I went into the theater very skeptical. However when I left, I was mesmerized by his performance and believability. He WAS Batman! I was very disappointed that he didn't continue on with the franchise, but again I was pleased with Val Kilmer as well. It stops there.

Christian Bale just gives me that little flip inside my stomach that tells me he is well placed in this role. I'm very much looking forward to his Batman. He just looks the part and has the mystique to go along with it.

I'm afraid that this http://www.deephousepage.com/smilies/smokin.gif would probably only lead to this http://www.deephousepage.com/smilies/sleep.gif these days.ROFLMFAO!!!!

Just to stay on-topic.. I'm wondering if anyone has this picture without the text on it. (I can't seem to get it to post as a picture)
http://www.tomwelling.com/cgi-bin/view.cgi?Gallery/magazine118.jpgI don't have a different version of that shot, but the repository of everything Tom Welling *cough*James*cough* might. :cool:

Love the caption in that spread, btw. ;)

Yep I don't mind clicking on a link at all.

Nice photo...

One of my favorites. It's got a nice "bad boy" attitude to it. :cool:
Now if only James will come around with a clean copy of it.

[jas01724]

James has a small clean copy, but you'd be better off cleaning the text from that one. Shouldn't be difficult.

Seems a crime to let the beloved Drooling Thread fall off the first page...

I guess the originals were initially posted at fresh-faces.org, but I wasn't able to see them there. Maybe you have to be a member or something, I dunno. :mad: ;)

Anyhoo, the couch photo two posts back is my new wallpaper, much to my husband's chagrin. LOL!!!

You have to be a member, so I joined! It's free. :D

I actually modified one of the fresh face pics for my new wallpaper, made one of them into a grayscale image and fiddled with the brightness and contrast, but don't have the guts to use it at home.... I'm such a wimp.

So it's my work wallpaper. I use an Alex Ross painting as my home wallpaper.

This is a copy of a post I made on the Community forum in response to a post by Babs Gordon requesting female Hypesters to list their 5 hottest celebs.

I'll show you mine, but you have to show me yours. :)




Top 5 is tough, and choices may change on a daily basis.

1. Tom Welling (big surprise)
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/Serene23/twot058jv.jpg


2. Nathan Fillian
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/Serene23/mal4_162752.jpg


3. Christian Bale

(BTW: the image files on that server start at 01.jpg and iterate down through 09 to at least 35.jpg, skipping 22.jpg oddly... just in case you're interested... some great large images there...)

2: Russell Crowe:
