Oh, Mr. Townsend, how we lust after thee! As Dorian Grey in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, he managed to play both sides of the game with aplomb. And my, how he could handle that sword! Simply yummy in his Victorian clothing, Mr. Townsend made a fairly unlikable character from literature (I mean, how arrogant is it to have a portrait painted of himself with the intent of aging said portrait in order to preserve himself for all posterity), well, actually he was still pretty unlikable. But definitely Hot. Really Hot. So Hot he even pulled off pinstriped pants. And we still wanted him even after he attacked a girl (well, a vampire, but still, not really the gentlemanly thing to do). Kudos, Mr. Townsend. You were just about the only good thing about League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and we appreciated every hairy-chested, nicely tailored moment.

Mr. Townsend also played everyone's favorite Vampire du Jour as Lestat in Queen of the Damned. We have not yet seen this movie (something about a Dead Girl playing the Undead is somewhat unnerving) and, frankly, we haven't heard too many good things about it. However, Mr. Townsend, though looking a little wan (well, duh, vampire, no sunlight) looked to be quite the Stud Muffin. We may have to reconsider our position on Queen of the Damned.

Oh yes, and Mr. Townsend, we're sorry that you lost the role of Aragorn in Lord of the Rings to Fellow Hot Bad Guy Viggo Mortensen. You have Our Most Sincere Sympathy.


Hotness: even in the Victorian Clothing
Badness: traitors and vampires, Unite!
Guyness: sorry sweetie, but you're dead average in this department
