Iconmania!

beelikejOnce again I managed to break a meme. It's a miracle I'm not struck by lightning yet for always getting those chain-things broken :-p I'm finally catching up with all the promises I made back in January when I was on a jetlag-high. Here is my response to the icon-meme that was doing its rounds...
1. Reply to this post and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.
(Except of course when you are me and you leave the meme unanswered in your mailbox for months.)

I'll participate in any meme where I can babble about things and people I love. Don't worrry, only the first three are film-related. Although it seems also beyond that subject I'm able to chat endlessly, oops ;)
01. Walken - ...I'm supposed to say "what?"... like I don't get it, right?
The enigmatic Christopher Walken has been one of my favorite actors ever since I saw him break down in The Deer Hunter (1978). Somewhere in the late eighties I rented the video with my brother and I watched it three times in a row. FYI the film is over three hours long. Stunning.
The quote that goes with the userpic is from Wayne's World 2 (1993), which is a completely different film.
I recommend both to see the massive range between serious and funny Walken!
On a shallow note: I adore his hair. Always.
02. DN38416 Reese Sgt Tech-Com - Come with me if you want to live.
Actor Michael Biehn as Lt. Kyle Reese in one of the best films of all time: The Terminator (1984). Forget the special effects of the sequels, this is the heart and core of the story. Spoiler: it is NOT about The Terminator. In the lead an actual 3-dimensional woman. I should really make an icon of Linda Hamilton as Sarah Connor too, she is such a feminist rolemodel, just like Lt. Reese. Respect is the keyword here. They are both heroes.
03. JDM grabby - How to put long arm to good use
Heehee. Only recently someone else asked for clarification of this pic. It's a shot from the promotional tour of P.S. I Love You (2007) This is Jeffrey Dean Morgan grabbing Gerard Butler's butt (and bypassing Hilary Swank). There is reprocication as well, you can find another image in my iconlist;). The film is a bit of a sentimental story, but a must-see for all lovers of JDM. If anything, just select the twenty minutes of scenes he's in; that's what I force my friends to watch when they come over;). Bring chocolate.
04. GayBoys - Me neither
If I remember correctly I got this image from the Comically Vintage tumblr. It made me giggle. Yeah, me neither *shifty eyes*
05. JDM hands - Jeffrey.Dean.Morgan.
Well, this kind of speaks for itself, doesn't it? If you ever heard me squee about my fetish for hands. And JDM. And skulls. And jewelry on men. *sighs* His full name serves well as a curse. Damn you, Jeff.
06. Doodle Skull - A doodle. I do doodle. You too. You do doodle, too
One of a series of doodles. I've been sketching skulls ever since highschool. Don't ask me why. I like bodyparts; they are all over my house as decorative statements. Piece the resistance is a full size skeleton out of paper I made when I was trying medschool. It's left over from my wish of becoming a pathologist. (I figured out early on that I didn't want to deal with all the living people I would have to study before finally settling on corpses only;)
07. Knufffel - MINE
Dutch word 'knuffel' means 'hug', but is also a word used for a stuffed animal. This yellow bear(?) is always going with me on my travels around the world, even on sleep-overs nearby;). One time I went to London and forgot to bring it (which was an excuse to buy a bear at Hamley's, heh). That was the reason I made an icon; to make sure I'll always have my Knuffel available, even when I'm far away from home.
08. CollarMe - Sssht
This is the lovely neck of Alyson Hannigan, whom I know best as Willow Rosenberg from Buffy The Vampire Slayer. The image was not only a Photoshop experiment in colouring, but also kind of outs a side of me I usually keep hidden.
09. SuperTwink J1 - Fiddle fiddle
Ahw, an adorable photo from the twink days of Jensen Ackles, such a precious pouty boy. The fiddle-comment refers to a song from rockopera Tommy by The Who; it's a quote from wicked Uncle Ernie, who loves to touch young boys. Sorry. It's just because this image always makes me feel a little pervy.
10. JDM hands - Jeffrey.Dean.Morgan.
Speaking of pervy images, there he is again. Those hands make me imagine all kinds of things. Pervy things. Good, good, pervy things.
Well, if that wasn't a disturbing peek into my mind. Bet you're happy you asked.
