I saw this question on another board and thought it was a good one. What movie character (doesn't matter if the actor/actress is dead or alive) would you date and why? I think I would date Robin Williams' character in Good Will Hunting (sean). He seemed so understanding. Ben Affleck would be my choice of someone to date and then dump  |

LOL believe it or not and you will think I'm nuts but I would date Dignan. There is so much good in his heart and he's so lost in some ways. I think I would be good for him and I think he would be fun - if all that enthusiasm was guided in the right direction  I would definitely date Alex Scott too - I love shy guys!! they're so sweet and usually wild in other ways  I would also love to date Rochester (played by Tim Dalton) from Jane Eyre - dark dangerous passionate ooh la la I don't know if he would be a keeper but I think he would be pretty exciting ;D |

If I had to pick from Owen's characters, I'd pick the same ones you did, Polly! If I had to pick from Luke's, I'd say Richie Tenenbaum or the guy from Home Fries. Who am I kidding? I'd take any of them except Vann from Minus Man!  |

This is a good question! I would date Mitch from Old School, Roy O'bannon, and/or Alex Scott (if he consented to wear the blue shirt constantly  ), Will Turner from Pirates of the Caribbean (in fact, any character Orlando Bloom ever played ;D ), Aragorn from Lord of the Rings and Christian from Moulin Rouge.  Phew, that ought to keep me busy |

If I could date any character, it would probably Prince Henry from Ever After. I just love that movie. He starts out as a spoiled brat, but by the end of the movie he would do anything for love. Its very romantic. ;D

I have thought very carefully about my response to this one and have used my useless moments today (while on "hold" playing telephone tag with clients) to arrive at the conclusion.
This is a CHARACTER now and not an actor- I would be very happy to date NY cop Charlie Lang from "It Could Happen to You". The guy is generous and sustains a love for simple things. He is loyal to friends and kind to kids. He is honorable, a quality that is priceless due to it's rarity these days. He is brave and willing to take chances for higher principles. He is funny and creative in the ways that he brings happiness to others. He is faithful even when life and wife are hurting him. He is persistent in his pursuit of his own happiness and yet is willing to change his life choices to be the the woman he loves.
I think Charlie is a sterling example of all that people, men or women, can be for each other in a loving relationship- Hollywood created a great one here.

Wow HT, now that really is a guy you would want to date. If you ever find anyone like that in real life, let me know. I have enough trouble trying to find a guy who is willing to pay for the popcorn at the movies.

Some great choices there ladies! Reading your posts has reminded me of one of the great male characters in film - Atticus Finch (played by Gregory Peck) from To Kill a Mockingbird. I saw that movie on the TV when I was pretty young and I remember even then thinking I hope I meet someone like that one day! He might have been my first ever crush ;D

Wasn't "It Could Happen To You" based (loosely) on a true story?
I think the real guy did give the waitress 1/2 the $, but no love affair - he was married.
It's nice to know that an honorable character was actually based on a real man!

umm....i'm not really sure. there's a number of guys. um. it could b Keanu Reeves in Speed. He plays this really good LAPD cop. Or umm.....Peirce Brosnan in Dante's Peak. He was a sweetheart in that movie!! I might hafta agree w/ Pollyanna on that one and say Atticus Finch! Or ummm......who else??? Oh!! Jim Carey in Bruce Almighty at the end of it, cuz he learned a really valuable lesson at the end of that one! Or the really hott guy that plays in What a Girl Wants w/ Amanda Bynes. His name is like Ian or something, I think.

mmm..interesting question..I think I would date the Stranger (Gerard Butler´s character in Dear Franky), hotness aside, he´s so sweet with the kid and with the mother, and you can apply the never judge a book by its cover saying with his character. if not him, any Mr. Darcy you want, the one from Bridget Jones or the one from Pride and Prejudice. Or Luke´s Ben in "The Family Stone" ;D

Good choice, HH. Ken Hutch definitely would be a fun date! I swear I had that same set of coffee mugs back in the 70's when they were popular. Also I dated a guy who had a yellow Ford camper/pick-up just like Ken Hutchinson's - I kid you not! Guys' name was Tim, and he worked at the Ford plant in Dearborn, Mich. When I saw that truck in S&H, I just about died.
