Hot fantasy
The red head from the Wendy's commercials, don't know her name but she is so hot. Also the two girls on the Citi card commercials they look like sisters, it would be a great 3 some. A guy I have a crush on also is Matt Bohmer from White Collar.

Too hot
Right now my I can't remember my obsession of the week's name. It is the late Rob Stark from game of thrones. He is seriously hot.

So I just saw the second Hobbit this weekend, and I can see why you are smitten. She did kick ass!
Overall, though? PJ has gone so far off track from the book. I'll probably see the third just for completeness sake, but I won't be looking forward with as much anticipation.

bail: see, i think it was better than the first one for several reasons, including expanding from the original text. the hobbit as written would never get published now* and PJ has to satisfy a modern audience.

*who the fuck needs 12 dwarves, most of whom have no distinct, clear personalities? why in the text are any of them worth a damn since they never do anything that impacts the plot in a meaningful way? why does tolkien not have any female characters worth a damn?

I never really thought of it that way, I just enjoyed the book as written. The lure of PJ was that he tried to stay true to the way Tolkein wrote. Granted, there was that whole Aragorn/Arwen thing in TLOTR that was only a minor blurt in the appendices, but overall, I feel he stayed mostly true to that series. This one? Not so much. I guess I'm just one of those people who get really shirty (great word, isn't it) when movies diverge too far from the book.

i'm OK with diverging from the text because film has demands that prose does not--provided it serves a purpose*. but hey, different strokes & all that.
the most recent adaptation of three musketeers diverged but in ways that are goofy & anachronistic. i cannot abide anachronisms, esp in one of my favorite fictional works of all time. :>

*the entire knight bus scene in the film of harry potter & the prisoner of azkaban pissed me off as it served no story purpose & was extended solely for the visual wackiness.

I have not seen any of The Hobbit movies, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading the above exchange. 
It made me laugh.

I've read those books so many times, and then out loud to the kiddos when they were little, I thought I'd get twisted about changes, but I didn't. Same with the Harry Potter books (I was so hoarse by the time we were done with those behemoths.) To me, and YMMV, it's like a chef's spin on my favorite comfort food. I love the original, but doesn't mean I can't love the transformed version as well. Then again, heh, I'm easy. Anyway--just enjoyed your conversation and wanted to butt in.
So as not to hijack--I would lie down with Richard Armitage, even with the outrageous facial hair.
And I'm half in love with Martin Freeman. I've loved him in every movie I've ever seen him in--even Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (a movie version of a favorite book I did NOT like). His facial expressions are hysterical and I just bet he would be so much fun.
Joaquin Phoenix. What I would do to him...
Yes!! Oh yesssssss....

Oh lawd, don't EVEN get me started on this. Plus the whole fire-bombing of the Burrow in one of the subsequent movies. I was pissed!
I saw Saving Mr. Banks a couple of weeks ago, and I thought it rather interesting that PL Travers held out against Disney for so long (more than 20 years). Mary Poppins is a favorite movie musical, but had I read any of the books, I'd probably feel differently.

Pourquoi?
What an interesting way of looking at it, Saucy. I don't mind small tweaks, but bigger ones irk me. That's why I opted out of True Blood somewhere along the middle or the end of the second season. Not even the chance of seeing Alexandar Skarsgard in the nude was enough to lure me back!
Plus, I just irritated the shit out of my husband by constantly saying, "That never happened, that's out of order, etc." I think a lot of it also depends on which genre I've been exposed to first - film or text.
Back on topic:
I'm probably old enough to be his momma, but I've been crushing on Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix. I've got a thing for baritones. Plus, the guy's just got this amazing vocal range.
