Ok. We all have them. This thread is to vent the top twenty-five of your TV and movie crushes. Male or female, real people or cartoon, short or tall, big or small, put 'em down here. This is inspired in part by katrina's thread on "Top 25 TV Characters." Here goes:
1) Dr. Jack Hodgins, Bones - Brilliant. Funny. Conspiracy theorist. Rich. Good dresser. Able to survive underground for prolonged amounts of time. Devoted. Loyal. Frequently attempts to spike communal bowls of liquid. Amusing drunk. Awesome hair. Even more awesome (don't make fun of my English) beard. Oh. And did I mention he is BEAUTIFUL? Abs. From. Heaven. But if I can't have him, I'll let Angela go for it - and ship them madly. Of course, if she hurts him again, she's dead to me.
2) Mark Cohen, Rent - I have mad love for the skinny Jewish boy with a camera. He sings, he dances, and he's totally devoted the lesbian free spirit who's so wrong for him. He's awkward, he's tiny, and he dances alone on tables. Wonderful.
3) Logan Echolls, Veronica Mars - What can I say? He's broody AND snarky. Not to mention those wonderfully sculpted arms. So he has issues. Issues, when combined with sexiness, are just hot.
4) Peter Parker, Spiderman - He's sweet and loyal and he even makes to time to go help out his auntie. Life would never be boring with him around. Besides, I like a man who can kick butt without using guns or swinging fists every which way.
5) Captain Jack Sparrow, Pirates of the Caribbean - As if that needs an explination. Because he's Captain Jack Sparrow, savvy?
6) Jake Perry, Sweet Home Alabama - Those eyes! That smile! The ABS! Add a sexy Southern accent and ability to love a woman for, like, ten years while she's off getting hitched to McDreamy, and I'm sold!
7) Patrick Verona, 10 Things I Hate About You - He quits smoking, does a musical number for the whole school, and spends all the money he made doing something wrong to prove he is totally in love with a prickly yet kick-ass chick. Awwww. He's a rebel with a heart.
8 ) Luke Danes, Gilmore Girls - He serves coffee and manages to make flannel look sexy. Plus, land him and you never have to cook, shovel your driveway, or kill insects ever again!
9) George O'Malley, Grey's Anatomy - Horrifically awkward and totally adorable. He makes my world stop, too, Callie. Well, only on Thursdays at nine. And when I watch clips on YouTube. But still. Not to mention the sweetest curly hair ever ...
10) Pete Monash, Win a Date with Tad Hamilton! - God, he's so cute! "Oh, I remember what I was going to say!" I'd take him over a movie star any day of the week.
11) Legolas, Lord of the Rings - Ok, yeah, it's shallow. But when he slid down the stairs on a shield, shootin' arrows every which way ... I think I drooled a little. Hottest elf EVER!
12) David (the Prime Minister), Love Actually - The leader of a country geeking out over a chick. Love, love, love - actually. Ok, I'll stop now.
13) Gordo, Lizzie McGuire - Ok, ok, this shows my age more than anything else. But he was my first TV crush. So adorkable! And the Jewfro - classic. Plus, he reminds me of one of my closest friends, always having to put up with us girls gabbing about clothes and cute boys.
14) Dr. Gregory House, House - He's snarktastic! I know, I know, total asshole, but who doesn't love a good asshole? That didn't come out right. Whatever. He makes you love him even while he's frustrating the hell out of you. That, my friend, takes talent.
15) Chris Gardner, The Pursuit of Happyness - I don't know why. He's just .. he's such a good daddy! And he's so strong to get through all the stuff he gets through. Plus, even with extra pounds and a porn star moustache, he's still Will Smith. And Will Smith is just plain sexy.
16) Dr. Zack Addy, Bones - Ok, his hair isn't floppy anymore. But still, how cute is he? Geektastic! Awkward and endearing, but still totally confident and brilliant. Besides, life with a forensic scienetist who works with the FBI? Never boring!
17) Wesley Wyndam-Price, Angel - Dorky, dangerous, and damn sexy, all in one. And that last scene with Fred ... it broke my heart a little.
1
Dr. Preston Burke, Grey's Anatomy - Has anyone, man or woman, ever fought harder for a relationship? He is sweet, he is dedicated, he is smart, he is very nice to look at, he has wonderful dry humor, and he can cook! Not to mention those sweet dance moves.
19) Josh, Clueless - Those eyes! That smile! I know I'm repeating myself, but seriously, that's what makes me love him. He's just so ... so ... "Awwwww!" Not to mention the stuttering. "Do ... you ... care about me?" Woobie!
20) Dr. Perry Cox, Scrubs - Yeah, ok, doctors galore, but you have to love the guy. He's an asshole, and his insults last about ten of an average person's attention span, but he makes me laugh every time. I can even find love for the ever-changing hair.
21) Agent Seeley Booth, Bones - I don't have a good reason. He's just hot. That's pretty much it. He's hot and funny and a prude, which is hilarious, so yay him!
22) Clark Kent, Smallville - Again, hot. Plus sweetly overprotective. And he's hot. God, those eyes ...
and ... Evil Lex Luthor, Smallville - Whenever Lex does something evil, a chill runs down my spine. Who knew that bald could be sexy? Not me, until now. And I know it's cheating. But they go together, and I ran out of room.
23) Westley, The Princess Bride - Funny, pretty, nice accent, pretty, sweet sword skills, and did I mention pretty? Because he is very, very pretty.
24) Ephram Brown, Everwood - Broody piano player with the floppy brown hair and those beautiful sleepy eyes. He was just so passionate, so in-the-moment. Damn you, CW, for taking him away from me.
And last, but certainly not least:
25)Spike, Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Horribly inappropriate, evil, and somewhat obnoxious, it's true. But the bleached hair and that gorgeous yet totally fake accent made me love him in spite of myself. So sue me.
I would've included Aragorn, but I couldn't make him fit. Ah, well. You don't have to have twenty-five. I just thought I'd make it a big number and narrow it from there, rather than making the people (like me) who have several crushes narrow it down. Have fun!

Also, a little bit of Kathryn from cruel intentions. While You Were Sleeping was my favourite movie when I was a kid...
