(We’re back with another weekly installment of G.W.W.E [Guys We Want to Eff]. We have always been a fan of the underdog around here (maybe because we were always picked last…for everything), which is why we are going with Edward Norton this week. You may have found it hard to fall in love with him as an anti-Semitic skinhead in American History X, but we saw through the hate. Especially after watching him get all sweaty and angry in Fight Club.

He may not seem all tough and cool, but it’s that complexity that makes us totally wanna eff him.]

Ed Norton. Mmmm. There aren’t many 39 year old guys we wanna eff, but boy do we have (naughty) dreams about Ed Norton.

The star is as talented as he is sexy. He has played all sorts of roles, from a sociopath to a card shark to a quarky Priest in New York City. And no matter what kind of part he has, he pulls it off flawlessly…and makes us wanna jump into the screen and eff him. Yes, even in the church get-up.

Norton isn’t your typical sex symbol. He doesn’t have killer abs or really defined arms; he just has a sweet and kind demeanor that makes you wonder if you want to hug him or tear off his effing clothes.

Which is why we wil be first in line for tickets for his latest police flick, Pride and Glory. Guys in uniform are always sexy, and Ed Norton will be no exception.

I love a terrible chick flick as much as the next girl, but sometimes you need a night with the boys to have a quality cinematic experience. Below, I’ve listed some movies my guys have endorsed or introduced me to, and hope you love them as much as we do:

Swingers. “You’re so money, baby, and you don’t even know it!” And it’s so, so true. Guys are just as bad as girls when encouraging their friends to hook up, and you can appreciate the other side of the story, as well as a young Vince Vaughn and Ron Livingston (from Office Space!).

Rounders. Mmmm Matt Damon and Edward Norton. My guy roommates used to play online poker for a ‘living,’ like so many other young men these days, and nothing seemed more awesome than a movie about poker. Also, part of me believes that all men share our love for Matt and Ed.

High Fidelity. Another movie about a guy’s girlfriend breaking up with him, and John Cusack’s adorableness is just another perk. This is one of my absolute favorites and I hope to marry a Rob Gordon-esque character someday.

Grandma’s Boy. I am ashamed to own this/cannot help but think of how I watched this at least a hundred times senior year with my boy roommates. One roommate always fell into hysterics during the Dance Dance Revolution scene, and I can’t watch it without laughing myself to tears thinking about it. Read More »
