hi guys [img]smilies/wave.gif[/img]
I'm a huge Colin Firth fan, I love everything he's been in. Can't wait for Bridget Jones sequel because Colin's actually in the book, it should be interesting to see if he plays himself and Mark in the movie.

Who doesn't love Mr Darcy indeed, P & P or BJD version because he's fabulous in both. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I love that pic posted above, at Bridge's birthday party, I always crack up laughing when he says "This really is the most incredible *****" [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] And I love the fact that he ad-libbed it himself, Sharon Maguire, the director, said so on the DVD commentary. (which I also love) She also said that the vulgar poem that Daniel was reciting in the lake to Bridget was actually made up by Colin and used by Hugh. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]

Nadene, it is criminal that you haven't seem BBC's P & P! [img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] It's the best, go rent it now! I dare you not to blush at the lake scene! [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] And oh, the end. [img]smilies/in_love.gif[/img] How I truly heart that mini-series.

Now, about his role in Edge Of Reason. That's one of my fave books ever and I'm so thrilled that it's being made into a movie and I can't wait to see Colin as Mark Darcy again. Regarding Colin as himself in the movie, I've read somewhere that the scene will be scrapped completely from the movie because they thought it would be too confusing for viewers who haven't read the book. I think it's a shame because that is one of the funniest moments in the book. [img]smilies/rotfl.gif[/img]

Bridget: What's your favourite colour?
Colin: Um...you asked that already. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]

I love the way she just goes on about his role of Mr. Darcy and that she tried to explain the term "*****wittage" to him. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]

I saw Love actually today and awww Colin was so sweet in that film and of course v.sexy!!! He was so good as Jamie! I liked him and his girl in the water trying to get the pages of his book. Yummy he was all wet!
As for the edge of reason, i can't believe they are going to scrap that scene but it would confuse ppl and you can't really have an actor play himself and another character in the same movie. I heard they would put another famous actor instead in that scene.

Does any1 know what movies Colin has done recently (apart from Bridget Jones 2) and also, is he going to be in any next year?

hands in her pockets

Hee, yay! A Coliiiiiiiin thread! I had a very Colin-filled week. I saw Love Actually for the first time and then rented What a Girl Wants (mainly for him) and Bridget Jones's Diary. It really was quite marvelous. [img]smilies/glow.gif[/img]

According to Colin Firth.com, I think he just has 1 movie, other than BJD, coming out next year (assuming that Bridget is coming out in '04). One is called Trauma, with Mena Suvari, which appears slated to premiere at Sundance in January. The other one is called The Dead Wait. CF.com says that Colin is supposed to start filming early next year, so it might not make it into theaters until 2005. Hope that helped! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I loved Colin in Love Actually, his storyline with Aurelia was very sweet. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] And who could complain about seeing him wet in a lake again? [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] I was having P & P flashbacks.

On the whole though, LA was a great movie, I really liked it. And I can't wait to see BJD: EOR. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I loved the whole movie, too. Jamie and Aurelia were so cute together! Hehe, when he was running into the water and saying, "Now I have to run in or else she'll think I'm a total spaz. *****, it's cold!" [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img]

I was looking for info on the release date and found this - "...Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason has been tentatively scheduled for release in November 2004." Ahhh, that's almost a year! I can't wait that long!

Thanx for the info! I can hardly wait til 2005. And a Colin-filled week sounds fab! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] I might just have to watch pride and prejudice again!

hands in her pockets

Teehee, more Colin! [img]smilies/glow.gif[/img]

I was reading the latest issue of Elle magazine today (with Drew Barrymoore on the cover) and got to the last page to see an interview with Colin! I found it on the site and you can find the beginning of it below. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] The rest can be found at Elle.com, at least until the new issue comes out, under In the Magazine.

OOh! I am gonna have to read that! Is there a gorgeous piccie of him in that mag? He's always gorgeous but is it an exceptionally hot pic?
I watched P&P again and ooooooh myyyyyyy god....I forgot how sexy he was in that. Ooh the girls that have been kissed by Colin! Lucky!

hands in her pockets

There is a small picture of him; I've seen it before - it's the one where he's wearing a white collared shirt and he has a really big smile on his face. You should be able to find it on the page of the article on Elle's website.

Thanx! Any picture I can get of Colin is enough to last me the whole day.

Oh, a Colin thread! Yay!! [img]smilies/slinkie.gif[/img]

[img]smilies/wave.gif[/img] Hey everyone, I'm Maja!

I've seen Colin in Shakespeare in Love, Briget Jones Diary, The English Patient and I've watched Hope Springs tonight! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] They're all great movies and Colin's a fantastic actor!

I can't wait to see What a Girl Wants and Love Actually! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I'm currently reading Pride & Prejudice again for the billionth time and every time Mr Darcy is mentioned, I can only think of Colin Firth. [img]smilies/lol.gif[/img] I love that miniseries so much. [img]smilies/sigh.gif[/img]

Star Dreamer

I'm also reading P & P and i think the same thing! Colin Firth... [img]smilies/drool.gif[/img] I couldnt imagine Mr Darcy as anyone else! I am v.desperate to see Hope Springs but it has been delyed here in the UK for ages and it's annoyed me continually. It's to be out next month but i doubt it will... [img]smilies/mad.gif[/img]
Girl With A Pearl Earring was released in UK today and i'm going to see it tomorrow. I just have to get my Colin Fix! [img]smilies/love.gif[/img] [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
