Whoa if people didn't ask for him. XD I can see why.

Actor and martial artist, this man is hot. Has practiced martial arts since he was a child and has portrayed martial artists since the beginning of his acting career.

He also portrayed an Iroquois man in a French movie (something about wolves) where he wore loincloth and spoke in a pidgin. His character also apparently didn't have a last name. (I just had to share it because we all know Europe is so different in terms of racism.)

Anyway, the man is hot.













Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, his father is Filipino descendant and his mother Japanese descendant. He is now in Iron Chef America as "The Chairman". He also appeared in Stargate: Atlantis and CSI

I know right. XD

Even though it's not right they got him playing an NDN in Brotherhood of the Wolf, I really love the opening ass-beating he delivers.

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

Aaah, that was the one! Heh, well, at least they casted a man of color. Damn, I haven't watched it, just read some lines and saw some pictures that made me cringe.

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

WHOA! That was... awesome. Man. *___*

Thank you!

[yeloson.livejournal.com]

The DVD has an extended ass whupping scene. Might be worth a netflix or rental...

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

Aaah, damn, I'm poor. My life is spend around bittorrent. XD

Coff, keeping my fourteen-years-and-going-on-strong crush on him in check, he is, actually, more or less how I picture Kurogane. The only but being that he's not very tall, but seriously, that picture with the sword? YEAH.

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

Heeee. Glad you enjoyed! &hearts

Oh my, really? Whoa. I hadn't even thought of that. But it's... very plausible, now that I think about it. XD

[allira-dream.livejournal.com]

Yup! He's not a 100% perfect, but still, yeah.

(... then again, I'm thoroughly biased for this man, so XD)

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

Pretty good choice anyway, maybe younger, but pretty good.

(I can see why. XD)

There's an icon on the ka-bloom Orlando Bloom Fansite that is very very apropos to these pics. Its the *ovaries exploding* one. God I wish someone would make something similar for LJ!

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

I know! Some icons are necessary for certain times. XD

[fujurpreux.livejournal.com]

*paws* I'd totally tap that. Rawr o.o

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

XDDD yeeees. I agree.

[danly.livejournal.com]

........... Hot.

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

I KNOW. XD

Brotherhood of the Wolf? Wolves? The french, ovie, that is. His character did all the work while the main character made time with women, then he died and the main character got all the credit for doing a couple things at the end. (Naturally, he ends up with the virtuous-but-abused-at the-last-minute-so-he-can-save-her girl he mostly neglected the whole movie.)

The general consensus, in my experience, is that the movie would have been way better if he were the main character.

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that one.

Aaaaah, the same tale as always. But it sounds better than what I first thought. And well, apparently there is a lot of undress. Worth checking maybe. XD

And in Crying Freeman, of which you have a couple of pics, by the same director of Brotherhood of Wolves.

ETA: I mention Crying Freeman cuz it's a case of a white guy going "hey this manga is cool! I wanna adapt it into a liveaction movie. And then he did not whitewash said movie, and actually casted Asian people in it! And the world did not end! And the movie did not flop! Isn't it amazing?

ETA2: you know what, I checked the wikipedia, and apparently I have been too hasty when saying there was no whitewashing, they just didn't whitewash everyone :(

[la-vie-noire.livejournal.com]

Damn, well, what can you expect. Also, I haven't heard of that manga. :/
