Mark Strong picspam ... number two!

You're probably sick of it already, but I keep finding hot pictures of Mark, and I would feel so guilty if I didn't share. In this picspam you will find:
- random pictures (different movies, premieres ...)
- screenshots from The Young Victoria
- and most importantly, screenshots from Sharpe's Mission (including a few cameos by Sean Bean)

This picspam is very relevant to the interests of certain people on my f-list who have a kink for uniforms, boots, and whips ... So even if you don't really care about Mark, you might want to have a look at the pictures from Sharpe's Mission.



It's Mark. And he's smiling. There must be a mistake in the Matrix.


The frown is back. I'm reassured.










That man has more style and taste than most of Hollywood together. The grey suit was already amazing, but he looks even better in black. That jacket is just perfect.


Speaking of style ... I'm sure nobody has noticed because you were all drooling at Robert and/or Rachel - but Mark's red belt buckle is just about the most awesome accessoire EVER!!! Because, seriously? All in black with that buckle? If I were a man, he'd be my fashion role model, I think. ^^ I'd kill to be in Rachel's place just for a few moments there ...


Then again, he looks stunning in EVERYTHING.






Stubble. Eyes. Almost-smile. And I also just noticed that I find his throat sexy. Great. oO






Now I'm thinking even more that Mark looks like Christopher Lee on some pictures ... The entire quote, btw:
"There's a touch of Dracula about him," Strong told Total Film. "He needed to have an element of showmanship about him by virtue of the fact that he's trying to persuade everyone around him that he's so in league with the Devil that he's able to conquer death. I just wanted to make him an equal adversary of Sherlock Holmes."

Which reminds me, I also found more Blackwood pictures, not sure if you guys already know them:




I love his completely emotionless expression. As if he weren't just killing his own father. I love this picture.


Screenshots from The Young Victoria:

Before anyone asks, he only has a small role in the movie. He's amazing, as always, but the rest of the movie is just your average annoying romance. If that's your kind of thing, you'll probably like the movie. If not, it will bore you to death and you will just have to skip from one Mark scene to the next one. He plays Sir John Conroy ... and he's just so good at playing violent characters.







Slapping people around, you're doing it right. In that scene he slapped Princess Victoria (left) through half the room. I tried to cap that, but it's such a dynamic scene, the caps just look weird. But this one is so ... pwnage. ;)


Gratuitous hand shot, and a cameo by Emily Blunt. Looking appropriately terrified.




It says a lot about Mark that he doesn't look absolutely awful with that beard. *shudder*


it's Mark Strong with a puppy. All your arguments are invalid.


From Sharpe's Mission:

For those of you who have never seen Sharpe ... it's a British series of TV movies about Richard Sharpe, an English soldier during the Napoleonic wars, played by Sean Bean - reason enough to watch it. Mark appears in only one episode, called Sharpe's Mission, as Colonel Brand.








Colonel Brand disapproves of everyone's bullshit. ;)


And he's not afraid of telling them.


Best smile ever. You can SEE that he's thinking, "LOL, you're stupid!"




Those legs! Those boots! No wonder they're all staring at him.






Not gay. Not really. ;)

Btw, meet Major Sharpe. Not the best picture of him, but I didn't want to risk getting started on spamming you with Sean Bean pictures as well. ;) Anyway, Major Sharpe fanboys Colonel Brand. Like woaz.







However, the fanboying doesn't last, and the initial admiration-slashiness is followed by potential of hate!sex:




(Sharpe just yanked Brand out of bed in the middle of the night. Yeah.)

But messing with Colonel Brand is a bad idea, because he has a whip:



I'm not coherent enough for a comment. GUH!


What's up with the bedroom eyes? He's looking at Sharpe, btw.

And finally ...



I don't even know what to say to this. LOL?

Thanks for your time. Sorry for the huge picspam, but I didn't want to withhold any of Mark's hotness from you. ;D

Der letzte Auftrag?

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 07:19 pm (UTC)(link)
*shrug* ja. Gabs halt nur auf Deutsch. Keine Ahnung wie der englische Titel wäre. Egal Major Sharpe ist Major Sharpe. Hat mich ja schon überrascht sowas überhaupt da zu sehen.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 08:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Achso, ja, das ist dann glaub ich der neueste Teil, den sie zehn Jahre nach den anderen gedreht haben, da sieht Sharpe sowas von alt aus. ;D Ich kann dir die DVDs ja auch irgendwann mal ausleihen, wenn du willst.

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
He natürlich will ich. Bin grad wieder auf den Geschmack gekommen :)

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 08:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Mhm, wenn du morgen Zeit hättest, könnte ich dir die DVD-Box geben, dann musst du nicht warten, bis ich wieder da bin.

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Hab ich. Wann magst du? Kaffee inklusive?

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Naja, ich hab nicht wirklich so viel Zeit, weil ich ja packen muss etc. Aber ich geh morgen Abend eh mit meinem Bruder ins Kino am Potsdamer Platz; wenn du möchtest, können wir uns ja vorher da beim Balzac oder so auf 'nen Kaffee treffen, halt nicht so lange, weil ich vorher noch Sachen erledigen muss.

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 09:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Ok dann ein Stündchen vorher oder so? Wann geht ihr? Nachmittag oder Abends?

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Der Film fängt um 19h30 an. Also vielleicht 18h30 an der U-Bahn? Ich muss dann aber noch schnell die Karten abholen im Kino.

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 09:43 pm (UTC)(link)
Ok 18:30 da oben U-Bahnausgang beim Cafe würd ich sagen.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, super. Soll ich außer Sharpe noch was anderes mitbringen?

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 10:00 pm (UTC)(link)
öh nein besser erstmal nicht. Sonst bin ich nächste Woche gar nicht mehr ansprechbar :)

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay. Dann bis morgen. :)

[identity profile] evoe.livejournal.com 2010-02-26 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Jup. Bis morgen *freu*

It took me like 2 days, but I DLed the entire series. And WTF YOU DIDN'T TELL ME MARK IS ONLY IN THIS SHOW FOR LIKE ONE EPISODE. I WAS EXPECTING A WHOLE SERIES OF HATE!SEX AND WHIPPING POTENTIAL.

Oh well, at least it whet my appetite and will hopefully inspire me to be doing some ficcage.

DUDE, I LOVE HOW EVERYONE IN THIS EP PRACTICALLY SQUEES OVER MAJOR BRAND. First Sharpe watching his butt cheering him on as he clambers over rocks, then random VaguelyLatino!Extra being all like "MAJOR BRAND~ *WIBBLE*". Too bad his five second daydream about being ravaged by Brand's manful sideburns is thwarted by a round to the chest :/

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-27 11:13 am (UTC)(link)
I mentioned it somewhere in the post, but I understand that it was easily overlooked with all the pretty pictures around ... sorry. :( I'm sad, too, that there isn't more of him. If you want more Mark, watch RocknRolla or (AND) Body of Lies. I made the mistake of watching both movies yesterday, I am now completely incoherent and incapable of having any conversation without going like, "fglsgblc Mark gndlgkbrciberl unf!" ^^

Yeah, it's awesome. Everyone fanboys him so hard, and he's just a wonderful asshole. What's up with his sparkling and smiling when he's sparring with one of his men? :D

[identity profile] poisonsoda.livejournal.com 2010-02-27 11:46 am (UTC)(link)
Ugh, I've been on Percoset since Tuesday, makes me a bit flighty/prone to scan rather than read.
Saw Body of Lies already (forgot he was in it), and RocknRolla was epic. I've probably had a burned OST CD in my car since it came out.

FFFT RIGHT. Who knew he was such an accessory whore too?

Also, yeah Sean Bean kicking fools in the face and swinging around a sabre. His fanboygasms are so amusing.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-27 02:17 pm (UTC)(link)
If you forgot that Mark was i nit, you should definitely watch it again. He's beyond awesome in that movie. Arabic accent and all, it's surprisingly sexy. And STUBBLE! :D And RocknRolla was one of those movies I want to watch again, immediately after seeing it for the first time. Like, the movie is over, and I'm thinking, "It's so awesome, I could just watch it again, no?" :D

Sean Bean is generally amusing. I got Sharpe after watching LOTR and another movie he did in his early 40s, and then I watched Sharpe and could hardly believe that he was once even cooler than he is now. ;)

OMG I NEED TO REWATCH THAT EPISODE OF SHARPE, CLEARLY. Because I just spent the series staring at Sean Bean's ass. A fine pursuit to be sure, but MARKIEEEEE!!!

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-02-28 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
Definitely. I didn't notice Mark either when I first watched the series, Sean Bean distracted me as well ... now I wonder how I could ever overlook Mark. His legs are even better than Sean Bean's ass. ;)

*clicks on link*

*jaw drops*

Holy moly, dude! Ffffff....

That whip! THAT WHIP! I think my brain just combusted from an overload of hot. Uniforms, boots and whips! Oh my! Very relevant to my interests indeed! :P

(Also, I am lusting after Mark Strong's wardrobe now. Man, those clothes! Dude has style like nobodies business!)

[identity profile] assassin-nariel.livejournal.com 2010-03-01 04:51 pm (UTC)(link)
*giggles* LOL Linny, you're so obsessed.

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-03-01 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Exactly my reaction. Uniform, boots, and whips are just too much for any brain to handle. And the way he plays with that whip, and the dirty smirk ... guh ... *drools*

(THANK YOU for commenting on his wardrobe, I thought I was the only one who noticed that he has incredible STYLE! He looks so perfect in his black suits, and that red belt buckle is just the bets thing ever.)

[identity profile] linndechir.livejournal.com 2010-03-01 08:03 pm (UTC)(link)
You say that like it's a bad thing.

[identity profile] donatien1740.livejournal.com 2010-03-14 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG!!! HE'S IN THAT ONE TOO???? I didn't know!! OMG!! Now I HAVE to watch it!!! OMG!!

And the picture with the whip, that killed me - SO SEXY!!!!!
