In which Laura aims to misbehave.

Right now I am -- no, honestly -- working on getting caught up on my RPGs. My brain keeps stalling out, however, on a Brutality post. The rising humidity and falling barometer are not helping matters.
Earlier today, the movie The Other Sister was on television. I was largely unenthused; it was a decent film, but not really my cup of tea, and I only watched it because one of the guys on my hot list is in it. So that's the inspiration for the current post; I'm going to rewrite the descriptions of some movies to describe their inclusion of eye candy. Most of them you will recognize as being movies I love, so obviously I'm not being mean here. In no particular order, I give you the following:
The Other Sister -- A young Joe Flanigan models different tuxedos and performs an endearingly spastic dance in sunglasses at his wedding reception. Some stuff involving Juliette Lewis, Giovanni Ribisi and Diane Keaton happens in between tuxedo scenes.
Pride and Prejudice -- Colin Firth receives a Golden Globe nomination for Sexiest Brooding.
The Princess Bride -- Cary Elwes dresses in all black and demonstrates his athletic prowess via fighting, fencing, mountain climbing, running, and horseback riding. There's also a fairy tale going on in the background, and that kid from The Wonder Years eats a sandwich and sasses Columbo.
The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen -- Sean Connery leads a team of ridiculously hot guys, plus a good-looking woman and one of the lost members of ZZ Top, in an effort to stop a masked freak from doing whatever it is that masked freaks do. They are surrounded by explosions, giant ships, and a lot of water, but the real stars of the film are Shane West's hair, Tony Curran's accent, and Stuart Townsend's smirk.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire -- A freshly-legal Daniel Radcliffe takes a bubble bath. I'm pretty sure some other things happen too.
Lord of the Rings (the complete trilogy) -- Viggo Mortensen, Orlando Bloom, Karl Urban and David Wenham do amazing things involving horses, swords, and CGI monsters. Billy Boyd sings, Dominic Monaghan sneaks into battle, and Elijah Wood has blue eyes and tons of emo. Also, something about a ring and a dark lord and the end of the world.
Serenity -- Nathan Fillion breathes, speaks, and takes off his shirt. There's also a spaceship and a conspiracy, but who cares?
