with you on that...while i'm obviously not against RPF, i do still have mild weirdness feelings when seeing the actor/character slide. not sure whether that's ingrained from years of taboo thinking or whether there seems to be less of a performance aspect there. I.e., when i read JT, i *know* it's JT as performer whereas reading Ewan as stripped of his SW character seems to get a little too close to the actual person??? which is why it's differnt yet when we see actorsdo reality shows like that motorcycle thingy or ben affleck very clearly performing his life and his friendship publically...not sure if it's canon concerns or reality sqwuicks, but i want to see the RL/PR performance rather than the slide from fiction into real life....

and hey ratcreature! how *are* you??? and will you be around more??? (b/c then i need to move you from my people who rarely post and whose posts i do not want to miss filter into my regular default one :-)
