wow, what a question...have to say, ummmm oh sod it, Matt Smith, because i have the feeling he'll love doing it


if you could recast any DC movie character, who would it be, and why?

[hammard]

Ohhh good one. Obvious choice but Ryan Reynolds as Green Lantern. Swap him for Chris Evans. I know he has plenty of other good offers but he's pretty awesome.

Planes, trains or automobiles? Which is your preferred mode of transport?

[Veela Magnet]

I like planes, by virtue of the fact that being on one means that I'm going somewhere abroad/fun! I really love that Vic Reeves cartoon they show on flights, because it reminds me of imminent holiday! (unless I'm on my way home, which is a bummer)

Same Q!

[Pie Man 70]

Damn, very tricky.

I love cars, in day to day use the general convenience usually makes it a prefered mode of transport. However long drives, particularly with long motorway stretches are dull. Similarly I love flying, The excitement of a journey where I will be actually flying still fills me with wonder despite the way airports and flights try to sap as much of the enjoyment from the experience as possible. Finally trains. I have commuted and travelled a lot by train, and I work in rail maintenance which means by osmosis I have aquired some railway nerd aspects, and, when the train isn't packed to the gunnels or occupied by too many idiots it is a great way to travel and see some beautiful scenery.

In the end all have ups and downs, but I'd prbably opt for planes because some part of me still associates flying with holidays and fun. Also shows I perhaps enjoy travelling more than getting there.

Opposite Q, Planes, Trains or Automobiels, Which do you least like

[FREEFALL]

I work at an airport, so as i'm there for 40 hours a week. I've totally gone off flying. I used to love it, but now it holds no excitement.


Do you think Hugh Laurie could play a James Bond Villian?
