Well Played, Ryan Gosling


well-played

Mr. Gosling, you cad, you rapscallion, you rapacious scallywag, you’ve done it again. You are a man-size olive, a walking dirty martini with extra juice, and it WORKS, dammit, it works. And I’m not the only one who appreciates it. You made Intern George positively giddy. Or perhaps he’s just drunk on your essence. Hard to tell.

    I don’t comment at TLo, where they have another set of these amazing photos, so I’ll just say it now: Be. Still. My. Heart.

    No, dear Ryan, the martini suit was NOT a bad idea. It was a marvelous idea. MARVELOUS.

    But you know, if you still don’t believe me, you’re welcome to come over and I’ll do my best to convince you… ;)

      Oh Ditto… I just want to fix the tie in the first photo (I’ll tear it off later.)
      This oddly reminds me of a suit that Richard Gere once wore (in a GQ spread I think) back when American Gigolo came out.
      Anyway, that is some sharp suit and handsome man. (Thomas Jane, please note 1-how classy he looks, 2 -he is in fact wearing shoes.)

    That is some dose of man candy right there!

    As for Ryan’s suit: I love that color, though I never thought about a man’s suit in that shade. It works on him.

    I think that I would literally kill someone to be the shirt on Intern George’s back, right there.

    Any sorcerers on this board? C’mon. Help a lady out.

    Love the colour of the suit!

    However. What George is laughing at, of course, is the fact that it makes Ryan look as if he has a disproportionately enormous head. Well, maybe he always had it and George didn’t realize until now. Ryan’s expression even enhances the Humpty Dumpty effect. George, being the perfect gentleman that he is, is trying not to comment on Ryan’s unfortunate appearance, but he just couldn’t help himself cracking up. Especially since the Intern himself is wearing a suit that perfectly emphazises the manly shape of his own broad shoulders (which are yumm, as is well known). It just wouldn’t do to point these things out right at this moment. So he desperately waits for Ryan to say something hilarious. Which probably won’t happen soon, seeing Ryan’s stern expression. Poor George! Gruelling seconds!

    Well, that’s how I read this situation. I could be wrong. But the head IS huge.

    The fanfic practically writes itself. And yes, Ryan is too hot for words in that suit. Love the retro tie.

    I gotta say… I don’t get it. I don’t think Gosling is attractive. (I don’t think he’s ugly by any means, of course). I think it’s his eyes…?

    Clooney, on the other hand! wowza!

    I don’t really think he and K.Stew should hook up, either, but it would BREAK THE INTERNET and simultanously enrage the loonier of the R.Pattz/Cullen fans (“She broke his heeaaaaaart”) and thrill them (“Now he can be MIIIINE”).

    The two of them together in that movie, so much hotness, but I guess it had to be done since it also stars Paul Giamatti and Philip Seymour Hoffman, who are, shall we say, not as genetically blessed as Gosling and Clooney.

    I love the Martini suit – it is fab and Intern George has a serious case of the giggles in this photo series, too funny!

    I read a recent quote from Gosling where he said “I’d like to be making babies, but I’m not, so I’m making movies.” Did anyone else read that? I hope it was not fabricated because I LOVE it, it makes me like him even more!

    I can’t blame Intern George. I would probably react in the exact same way if Ryan Gosling was standing next to me.

    I tried to visualize another man looking good in the olive suit – Tom Felton? He’d look great, but a bit like the best-dressed boy in Slytherin, which he is anyway. Well played, Mr. Gosling, definitely the best-dressed man London Ontario has ever produced.

    I was an extra in this movie when they filmed in Michigan and OMG. Intern George is even more handsome and charming in person and FYI, he smells amazing. Ryan was there but was doing these behind the scenes shots during the town hall we were filming. With all the college age girls there George could totally overhear them all going on about Ryan and the Notebook and so he went and got Ryan and dragged him out to say hi and chat with the crowd for a bit. The girls went insane for Ryan, it was crazy. You could tell they got along great and George was loving that Ryan was the more the young “hot guy” on this movie and not him. Though seriously, I’d still pick George. YUMMY.

    That totally works. And can I say, I love a pop of color on a well-dressed man. Navy, black, gray, and brown all have their places, but it sure is nice to see something that isn’t the same old, same old, but also isn’t totally cracked-out.

    Note to Alan Cumming: Not that there’s anything wrong with cracked-out. Promise you’ll never change.

    This amount of handsome should be illegal. I really have to believe that Ryan Gosling is not real to carry on with my normal life. As far as I’m concerned he is CGI’d/S1MONE. I wish I could do the same with men who think sports jerseys and leather flip flops are formalwear. Excuse me while I sob into the sleeve of my cardigan.

    They BOTH look a-freakin-mazing if you ask me. I’ve never been a Gosling fan girl but I often appreciate his sense of style. Unfortunately I watched him being interviewed once and he came across as painfully douchey, but he’s fab onscreen. Awesome suit on the Gos and I love geeked out George. That’s a whole lotta’ hotness there.

    Does olive make people look jaundiced? I’ve always worn it and gotten compliments, but maybe it’s a skin tone and eye color thing.

    I LOVE IT! Ryan Gosling keeps getting better and better, just like Intern George! The pictures are awesome and so is the obviously true to life dialogue! Bravo, Heather!!! *applause*

    I love the olive green suit and that tie is wallpaper worthy! And, that movie poster is genius… It makes me want to buy it and hang it in my room, it makes me want to go see the movie and it makes me randy!

    Maybe it’s just me, but I didn’t take the exchange between the Gos and the Intern as star-struck George – seemed more like extremely stoned George with a case of the ganja giggles. Which would be awesome to witness.

    I don’t care if this movie is good, bad or ugly – I can’t wait to see the smoking hotness of these two on the big screen! And the suit? I think he looks good in it and mostly definitely out of it!

    May I vote for an affair with Milla ….however you pronounce her name. The one from The Black Swan. He’s not gorgeous. That’s the appeal. He’s utterly, totally, insanely confident. He is a delight (in the good sense). How about Michelle Williams, actually. She could use some cheering up. They do have chemistry. Prickly, but that’s not a bad thing.

    I’m a day late on this one but OH MAN WAS THAT EVER FUNNY I almost choked on my sandwich reading this G-rated foray into slashfic from Heather. They both look divine, and I love that Gosling wears so much COLOR!!! But you know who I’d really love to see him get together with? NICKI MINAJ. I don’t think anyone would “expect” it but they are both so cute and sartorially interesting (in WAY different ways but who cares) that I would love to see them together, even if it was just for a few weeks as a publicity stunt thing. I really think GOSINAJ needs to happen, if he and Intern George decide not to actually make a CLOONLING.

    He is rocking that green in a most unexpected way. I’ve never thought much about him before, but in that suit…I have this sudden compulsion to chew on his lower lip. Om nom nom.

    Also, I agree with the other commenters, this is one of the funniest bits of dialogue I’ve ever read on this site. I had my hand clapped over my mouth so I wouldn’t laugh out loud at work and give myself away. “This? It’s for work, I swear…”

    @mini_pixie: Glad I’m not the only one–I thought it was Ryan Reynolds in the poster as well. (And personally, I think he’s much more attractive than Gosling, suit or not.) That’s a manwich I could get into.

    A friend told me that she was talking to her husband about movies and mentioned Ryan Gosling had a new movie coming out, and the hubby says, “Oh the dude with all the kids is in a movie?” Are we not all collectively insulted that someone could confuse Ryan Gosling with JOHN EFFING GOSSELIN?

    WHO REMEMBERS RYAN GOSLING ON “BREAKER HIGH”?

    My sister and I watched that show every day. Ryan Gosling played sort of a doofus trouble maker, and my sister used to laugh her butt off at him. We said “That young man is going places!”
