What's the fascination with Vin Diesel?

[Blondie]

I know several girls at work say he's the hottest thing to hit the big screen since......since....they really couldn't name anyone in particular. :rolleyes:

Anyway, they just can't get enough of this guy.

DH says he is the "James Bond" for a new generation.

I say whatever! He just doesn't do a thing for me. Maybe I'm just gettin' old!

Vin Diesel fans check in and explain please!

[Princess Michelle]

He doesn't do anything for me either Blondie.

I'm sure there are guys that I think are hot that do nothing for other woman though so I guess it all evens out.

[browneyes]

I don't understand the fascination either, Kathy.:confused:

[MineeBaby]

doesnt do anything for me either..:) i guess its just one of those things...

[kejoda]

Don't even have a clue as to who he is. Is he human?:confused:

[catsrule]

He does nothing for me either.

Sweetie, on the other hand.....;) :teeth:

[nativetxn]

I didn't even know who this was, so I did a google search and found this. If this is him, I don't get it either, but perhaps he's attractive because his characters are attractive???

Umm I don't like him either LOL

[pw2pp]

Maybe I'm just gettin' old!

Maybe that's it Blondie.

Wait a minute...... I think you and I are the same age!
He definitely does it for me.

[preshi]

HE IS TOTALLY HOT!!!! SIGH....... :D

[accomp]

I've never heard of him before today. :confused:

[Minnesota!]

One word - Yum!

The man is HOT beyond flames..

[bfeller]

Not my type.

[MHopkins2]

One word - Yum!

The man is HOT beyond flames...
Sing it, sister! I have zero interest in James Bond-y movies, but I might have to go see XXX (which is his new 007-y movie, *not* porn ;) ) just to see him in it. The line in the preview where he says, in his magically delicious low voice, "The things I'm gonna do for my country," while half-naked and looking at an off-camera woman... Wow. Just wow.

(FYI for those who don't know what he looks like, he's MUCH better looking than that pic reflects.)

[Cindy B]

Doesn't do a thing for me either...

He looks like the guys hanging out on the street corner, unemployed...

[dizneegirl]

oooooohhhhhh

He's YUMMY.

Not so much in Boiler Room, but in Pitch Black, Fast & the Furious and now XXX... yum! He was in Saving Private Ryan, but I didn't notice him, I guess...

I think it's a combination of the exotic-but-not-really look, the body (oh my!), and that VOICE! Mmmmmmmmm. That, and he's not a 20-something "kid" (he's 35). He's just VERY attractive (read: HOT) in my book! ;)

DH just asked if I was looking up pictures of my "big-nosed bald guy"... :rolleyes:


Side note: he did the voice of the Iron Giant for the animated movie, too.

[ShuisFan584]

I'm sorry, but I don't think he's attractive either.

[swankybeth]

He's more sexy to me, than attractive. His face isn't bad, except for that schnozz. But his body...!!! :D :D :D

[nativetxn]

Okay, I heard the voice, and I still don't get it. Great bodies, though, <b>that</b> I understand :)

[Felicia]

I think he is on fire too! ;)

I think it is the whole "bad boy" look he has going and some (like me secretly:rolleyes: ) like that!!!!

[cotye]

He was pretty good in the Fast and the Furious... but he really stunk in Pitch Black... I don't see him as anything more than an action star.

[Chrissi Pooh]

I can't believe you guys are talking about the almost hottest man alive.....he is so fine!!!

I think he has mystery to him like when you look at his face you can see a devious side to him....his voice has got to be the best thing...not to get to rated R here but when I here that voice I close my eyes and wish he were in my bed....oooohhhh lalalalala!!!

he has very good muscle tone....not too much but just enough to see ripple ( six pack) and enough strenght that would be able to hold on tight to me... sorry getting a little to intimate with you people I know!!!

I can't say enough about this guy.........Vin if your out there I am waiting for you!!!

I have been looking for a decent poster to put in my room so I can at least say I had him next to me...never said in my bed!!!;)

[pw2pp]

Here's a pic of Vin on the Jay Leno show last night:

[Hnymoon@Dixie]

I saw him getting interviewed & I didn't think he was that great. Then I saw him in a movie & I think its the way he carries himself, VERY SEXY!! I've had the hots for him ever since... YUM YUM!

[pajamommy]

I agree with you, Blondie, he's just YUCK to me.

[DaisyDebbie]

Doesn't do a thing for me either :(

[Judy from Boise]

Went to the movies last night, and saw the trailer for XXX, he leaves me cold !

[WDWfanatic288]

I don't get it either!!

he has a nice body but I don't think he is that cute!!
I prefer a young Brando,Jimmy Stewart,Frank Sintara-those are some nice boys right there! :teeth:

[dizneenut]

He's got a great bod, and I love that voice!!

[Lars624]

I have to say that he's not my type either & yesterday I didn't find anything about him appealing. Then this morning I saw him being interviewed and I do find his voice appealing...........now if I could just put his voice in George Clooney's body!;)

[MHopkins2]

Vin fans - check out the current issue of GQ next time you're at the book/grocery store. Cover picture and photos in article are, um, *very* nice! ;)

[Blondie]

I prefer a young Brando,Jimmy Stewart,Frank Sintara-those are some nice boys right there!

Um....you are aware that they've passed on to that big screen in the sky, right? ;) ;) (except for Brando ofcourse)

[Robinrs]

Blondie, I swear, I was going to post this myself because, like you, I DON'T GET IT... :confused:... but to each his own, I guess.

He reminds me of the doofus guys I grew up with in Brooklyn. I never liked the "bad boys" anyway, I was a BAD girl so I liked the Clark Kent types... :p

[trayletha]

I think it's that whole anti-hero thing - I've watched Pitch Black about 30 times and still get chills ;)

[Rexfan]

Whew, he is hot in my book! I usually go more for the "doofus" types, so Robin may have just helped me figure out why I like him.:smooth:

[Beauty]

He does nothing for me either. But John-Cole and John can't wait to see that movie....they are both going nuts for it to get here. I guess I'll hold judgement until I see the movie. Sometimes first impressions change after seeing the person in action but for right now, yuck.

[Grog]

He was in Saving Private Ryan, but I didn't notice him,


He was the soldier killed by the German sniper while trying to take the little girl from her parents (they wanted him to take her on to the next town, if I remember correctly). He said she reminded him of his niece.

[minniecarousel]

Another vote for "I don't get it!" It's amazing to me that he has ANY following at all - I just do not see it. (& I've seen him on talk shows recently and saw the trailer for XXX)

[Lars624]

For all of you Vin Diesel fans..........the new issue of people magazine has an article about him in it accompanied by a few pictures, I was a bit surprised to read about his girlfriend though. He's 35 & she's only 18.

[Tiggerlover91]

For me, it's the voice and the look. I have a thing for bald headed men. ;) Doofus.....I wouldn't say that, but we are all entitled to our opinions. Some opinions are like rotten eggs...THEY STINK!! ;) :rolleyes: Anyway, I really like his voice and "the bad guy" thing he has going on! :D
