Help me out!

A few weeks ago, when we were still talking about the Genies and various other things, we heard that Paul had been nominated for a few other awards as well. One in particular was due to be awarded on his birthday, but I can't find what on earth this was. I think he's up for a Writer's Guild Award (as well as Martha!) and these are due to be given

At least Elm Street didn't airbrush the photos so that he looked possessed, so I count my blessings in that area.

This is very true.

Actually, and this admission may be sacrilige, I'm a lot less fond of photo-shoots than I am of candid photos of him.

Oh, absolutely. This is sacrilege? Not even close.

a fine example of his good self is that final photo - natural, unrehearsed and relaxed.

That's one of my favourite photos of Paul, ever.

That ToTC photo looks like a recent Bjohan family photo - we're all kinda stuck in about 1975.

I'm definitely stuck in the '70s with some things, but not with clothes. I don't know what you'd call my wardrobe. Early thrift shop?

My other observation about that picspam is that I find him a damn sight more attractive now than I did in his DS days. He seems more...him now, if that makes sense.

I was just thinking about this, and I agree with you, although I think he probably was in his best physical shape then. That top picture, I love it, but to me it's not a picture of Paul, it's a picture of Fraser. And because Fraser is one of my favourite characters ever, it's all good. :D

Ah see, I like Fraser as a character and I think Paul played him absolutely flawlessly but I didn't particularly find him attactive. Yes, in a "Christ Almighty, he's good looking" but not in a "please take me to bed right now, I'll even pay you" way which Geoffrey and the glimpses of realPaul we see, do to me. Seeing pics of Paul-as-Fraser don't interest me half as much as recent pictures of him do. In many ways, I think he's grown even more into his looks which sounds an impossible feat, but he seems to have achieved it. Bastard.

Still different strokes for different folks -I'm reading the thread at Nos's LJ and sitting here unable to comprehend many of the comments there!

One of my favourite photos - I love happy Paul:

Oh, I know what you mean. I've always said that Fraser is my fake!twin brother (we're so much alike it isn't even funny) and that Geoffrey is my fake!boyfriend (in some Ellen-free alternate universe). This doesn't mean that I don't occasionally have my moments re: Fraser, but still.
