It wasn't just Moulin Rouge, but watching him and Charlie in Long Way Round hurt his cred a tad. I still love him as a draw to the films, but by himself, he'd be like Renton at the end of Trainspotting; getting his due while everyone slept, sneaking out.Shanenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3531814195597647415.post-39871807531625530612010-01-29T11:51:09.383-05:002010-01-29T11:51:09.383-05:00Surprisingly enough, I couldn't find one clip ...Surprisingly enough, I couldn't find one clip of Viggo fighting naked online. I was sure youtube would even have videos of my birth. I did get to watch some clips of Ewan in Velvet Goldmine though.

The man is Scottish, and if Braveheart has taught me anything, it's that you don't take lightly a man wearing a kilt. Ewan would fight dirty. Also, he probably knows a real life "Begbie" who would jump in and try to fishook Viggo.Dan Fleminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12418855013568661590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3531814195597647415.post-48445914080201306142010-01-29T11:43:13.230-05:002010-01-29T11:43:13.230-05:00I don't know that I could actually sit down, l...I don't know that I could actually sit down, let alone - pay!, to see this film unless it was a double feature of chicks settling their issues in some foreign substance, too. But, I digress...<br /><br />I gotta say, the idea is great, but the end seems easy to me: Viggo wins handedly and probably quickly. <br /><br />Ewan strikes me as the type to put up a great front, but when push comes to shove, he'd balk a bit and then find a way to shank you when you're picking up your kid at school, or in line for lunch somewhere. <br /><br />Viggo would fight, bare-ass Roadhouse-style for as long as you wanted to test him, but if he even began to sense he might lose, I wouldn't put it past him to grab a fist o' pubes or jam a finger in his opponent's asshole. You'd have to be fighting for your very soul to continue when someone's taking your temperature the Amish Way!<br /><br />Viggo wins.Shanenoreply@blogger.com
