You didn't know that you could find a romantic retreat on a Mom blog, did you?
Welcome to Battle of The Leading Men!
Your Romantic Getaway...
Would you like to play?
First, meet our one and only Hosts, Clint Eastwood & Timothy Olyphant. Why are they so special you ask? They have been designated untouchable, and shall never battle.
Thank you Gentlemen.
And we, Mommy LaDy Club and Beth of Far From Camelot shall be your honorable Co-Hosts for these two special RE-MATCH BATTLES! These contenders both ended their clashes all tied up. Therefore, we must have another round to seal their fates!
Since Beth has not only been an avid player in our Battles, but an experienced Co-Host, we thought you might enjoy what she has to say...
Mommy LaDy Club: Who is your favorite on screen Mr. Darcy...Colin Firth or Mathew MacFadyen, and which Pride & Prejudice movie do you prefer(A&E or Keira Knightly version)?
Beth: If I had to chose between Colin or Mathew, it would be Colin of course! Not a fan of Keira Knightly, so I prefer the A&E version. My ultimate Mr. Darcy has always been Laurence Olivier. No one compares!
Mommy LaDy Club: Whom do you predict so far will win as our ultimate Leading Man Champion?
Beth: Keanu Reeves brings back memories of my adolescence as he was the star of the day, but I believe Beckham will be the eventual winner...fabulous eyes and killer thighs!
Mommy LaDy Club: Who is your favorite Battle loser, and should have won his Battle?
Beth: Gerard Butler deserves better treatment...300, Phantom of the Opera,P.S. I Love You...he's done it all and looked better than a man should be allowed! I can't believe he's over 40...he turns me to goo with his Scottish lilt!
Thanks Beth! Spoken like a true romantic and author of your own Mr. Darcy.

I'm going with Colin and Raoul!
Courtney
Jude and Raoul!
I'm gonna have to go with Jude and Ashton =)
Colin and Raoul :)
Jude needs to take it all. Can he win the whole thing? LOL!
If I have to pick two, I'd say Jude and Ashton :)
Definitely Jude and Raoul! I'm not an Ashton fan at all.
And Mathew MacFadyen was my favorite Mr. Darcy. :)
Colin - Because I'll never forgive the trecherous miscastings of a fabulous book, Cold Mountain!
Raoul - OMG, my heart's still beating like I ran a 10k...
Mathew is my favorite Mr. Darcy too!
I've never read Cold Mountain, but loved that movie. Probably because I didn't read the book to ruin it. I'm wondering whom that cast should be??
Courtney
Collin totally! Loved him in in Bridget Jones Diary as well and Ashton. Love playing!
Definitely Jude and Raoul. Both are very hot!
I'm going with Jude and Raul too!! Thanks for always making me smile!!!
STILL hate Jude so I am going with Colin and I have to say Ashton, though honestly I can't say why...can't think of him as a leading man but... there's something there...
sorry Demi.
Jacqueline, you are so funny, and I hope Colin wins this time!;)
Colin and Raul, and I just LOVE looking at Timothy. *Sigh* He's so hot...I wish I could bump into him in some dark alley. I'd teach him a thing or two about a thing or two!!!
Go Colin :)
Sharon
Sharon, I love you!;)
Ooh... I'm going with Jude and Raoul! But I was disappointed because when I clicked on the video of Ashton, a message popped up saying that the video had been removed due to a copyright claim. PBBBTTT!!! Tricksy YouTube Police!
By the way, may I make a request for a future battle? I would love to see Jason Statham up against another action guy. Not sure who (Jason Statham always wins in my book), but it would be nice to see him featured!
Stopping by from voiceBoks! Enjoy the rest of your week!
Smiles, Jenn
Ah man, I didn't know YouTube took it away! It was tough to find a good one for Ashton, and I know he's well liked from That 70's show. I'll see if I can find a replacement.
We can definitely do Jason Statham!;)
