What's the big deal with Clint Eastwood?

Post by anna09 » Thu Sep 30, 2010 12:14 am

Seriously? :dono:

My husband and all of his friends have a man crush on this guy and I just don't see why. I mean, yea he looks tough and everything but the movies are really cheesy and predictable yet they can't get enough of them. I was just flipping through the channels when my husband yelled out, "SUDDEN IMPACT IS ON!! YEEESS!!" :? So I left the room and figured I'd give him a moment.

Is this just a guy thing? :think:

Your husband is clearly gay. You should leave him ASAP. :tea:

Clint is pretty much as man as it gets. He makes the rest of us go, "Yeah. I could be like that. OK, I couldn't really. But I like to think I could!"

Dirty Harry, the man with no name, hell even in Gran Torino he's a tough motherfucker.
He's the guy who John McClane looks up to.

I have a huge crush on Clint Eastwood.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life

Anna, I used to be a worshipper like your hubby and friends are. The spaghetti westerns were just :awesome:

After that, though, well, his work has been a grab-bag of the very good, the very bad and the downright ugly.
