Dice picspam (2)

One last post before I head home.

Dice or Men with Brooms? I got my list and my trusty die out to see what they'd tell me to do.

Dice.

To quote helleboredoll, watch as Egon transforms from "long-haired freaked out and freaky weirdo to short-haired freaky hot-ass".

Great pics, thank you! Is Dice a complete thingy, or is this a particular episode?

Looks like he had a face lift at the same time as the haircut, doesn't it? Either that or a good trim and dye-job really does take years off you. It's almost enough to convince me I should stop trying to grow my own locks and go back to the short & blonde look, too.

Just for the record, is there a Callum performance anywhere that doesn't involve him playing a freak or a weirdo of some sort? I know Johnny in MLaaD is lovely as anything, but there's more than a hint of oddness about him, too.

Hmmm... Duck McDonald in Wilby Wonderful. Mike in Bliss. Inspector Wood in Torso. Detective Keegan in Murder Seen. Gray Wellman in La Femme Nikita. Just to name a few off the top of my head.

I don't know. Even Duck was a stalker. A nice stalker, but still.

malnpudl July 19 2006, 21:37:12 UTC

Duck wasn't a stalker. He was an angel. *nods* Dan MacIvor said so! ;-)

timian July 19 2006, 21:41:27 UTC

Did Dan say that? Awwwwww. ::melts::

malnpudl July 19 2006, 21:45:18 UTC

Yep, in the Wilby commentary. *hearts*

And Dan said that Callum said that was the first time anyone had cast him as an angel.

mergatrude July 20 2006, 02:45:53 UTC

Hmmm, angels are kind of stalkery, aren't they? Always checking up on you, hanging round...

*signs up for Duck as guardian angel*

capella_fic July 19 2006, 21:44:21 UTC

OK, I'll rephrase that - any movie where he doesn't play a weirdo, freak, or somewhat odd loner? Don't get me wrong; I love some of these characters (particularly Duck and Ray K) but am interested to know if Callum has ever been cast completely against type? I haven't seen the other shows so can't comment on those.

(And I agree with Dan MacIvor - Duck is definitely an angel. Still not your run-of-the-mill character, though.)

malnpudl July 19 2006, 21:51:37 UTC

Check out the other ones I mentioned. See what you think. (Um. You know where to get them, right?)

Yes, thanks - just haven't quite got that far yet. ;-)

Dice is a six part mini-series. Callum's character shows up in scenes throughout it.

Not a freak or a weirdo?

Hmmm. In addition to the ones Mal mentioned. Tom Struck in Purple Toast is a psychic detective. Then there's one of my all time faves, Mark from Double Happiness. Craig from Last Night. Jim from Curtis's Charm, he's a nice guy. Dr. Rollie from Whiskey Echo, he's another good guy. Anthony in Trapped, he gets to be a hero.

Ed fromFlower & Garnet isn't a weirdo but he is emotionally stunted. Jim Field from Falling Angels, a bit of an alcoholic tyrant. Though I highly recommend both of these.
