Actor v. Character?

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

ok, so some buddies and i were chatting, and the question of who we wanted was raised: Jensen or "Dean"? which you can extend to Jared or "Sam"? Sebastian Spence or "Cade"? i mean, who is it that we really want?

my answer, after several lines of chat back and forth, is it's gotta be Dean. (Jensen would need some converting, besides. he's a cowboys fan, i'm an eagles fan; we're supposed to hate each other on general principle) NOT that i would have a problem with Jensen, really. guess that makes me a Dean-fangirl. NOT that there's anything wrong with that!

ok, so: who do you want, the actor or the character? and who (cause there's multiple fandoms here)

Heh ... since you asked:

I'd pick Sebastian over "Cade" since Cade's got that whole alien population trying to kill him and all. Plus there'd be that whole mess with Jordan to deal with. Ewww.

As for others not specifically mentioned in your question ...

"Drew" over Orlando ... Drew being the character he played in Elizabethtown. I'm madly in love with Drew.

Actually, Drew over Legolas, Todd, Will, Joe, Jimmy, Paris, Balian, or Orlando. :)

But definitely Viggo over any of this characters, although Aragorn is quite appealing.

And Sean over any of his characters. *dies*

of course, since i brought him up, i'd go for Sebastian, not "Cade," cause Cade had one true love in Hannah, and to hell with Jordan. although "Eddie" would be fun to hang out with.

Sebastian, i don't know all that much about, when you get to it.

come to think of it, do we really *know* the actors?

do we really *know* the actors?

Nope ... but some of them play such freaky, intense characters that I'd choose the real them over any of those characters any day ;)

it appears the consensus in this thread is actually a character..."Dean"

hmm.... i'm sure there's some meaning in that, i'll get back to you on it.....
