Benonites II

Oh my... I hope Ben Barnes never sees this thread :p

i put that in the book:D
He gets a fan letter from me telling him if he EVER decides to go on the internet,NEVER type benonites II thread into google.
So out of curiosity he does and freaks himself out....therefore making his desire to stay off the internet even more fierce:D
 
If he saw how crazy you all are, he may have to get plastic surgery to make himself ugly so girls will stop crushing on him. :p
 
That's some great pictures of him you recently posted, Narniamoondust. ;) He certainly looks a lot nicer in some photos than others - but I'd have to agree that he is generally a good looking chap. (Not so much in this one film he did, though!) :p
 
What film you referring to Cabbage? I assume Dorian Gray because OMG! That painting gives me nightmares...no seriously it did...with some catfish and madonna in between..which made NO sense.
Yeah,I didn't like the beard at first but I got used to it,but I couldn't handle it with the ponytail in VOTDXD UGLY!
The long hair is sweet though,he does look a lot more young with the short frizzy cut though,which is SO CUTE!!!
And NO i don't think he'd settle for plastic surgery,just get a deep tan,cut his hair,adopt a russian accent and move to Germany! Just kidding,maybe hire better security or stay away from L.A.
Heres some new pics if you want em:
I made this one,because he looks like some adorable troublemaker!I usually hate calling boys cute but when they cut their hair like that I HAVE to use that word!

This one is just so....alluring. I dunno WHAT it is about this pic but I LOVE it!

This is from Killing Bono,he's got the same haircut as the kid my sis has a crush on so it looks so funny. It's like, "THEY MIXED OUR CRUSHES TOGETHER!" I think that short haircut like that makes his face look more boxy that the long hair does though.

Here,I found this! Its an interview with Ben in a dutch magazine so somebody has translated it. He really shows a bit of his true side we NEVER knew and even mentions his family backround a little more.
But beware,he likes kanye west! I wonder if he saw the incident at the music video awards:D
Oh and at the end they ask him wether he has a girlfriend or not and he said:
Nope still single,so bring on the interesting and funny girls!(laughs)
HAHAHAHAHAH I HAVE A CHANCE!!!! I'm interesting to OTHER people and laugh alot soooooooo...weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee(oh and he said he's annoying which is funny because everyone thinks I am at times too:D)

Kay,here you go:
(I highlighted the questions so you can tell who's talking,ben's not bold,interviewer IS bold) Oh and the translation is rough so some sentances are rough
Introduction: Who is the most remarkable presence on the scene lately? Ben Barnes’ handsome face on posters of the movie ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian’. We have had the chance to look in his gorgeous eyes in NY. Sway with us!
The interview
Well, Ben Barnes, where have you been our entire lives?
Mainly on the theatre. I’ve been acting for about 10 years, but this is the first time for me to play a lead role in a film. Before ‘Prince Caspian’ I just couldn’t get a hold of movie parts.
Could that have anything to do with the fact that you look so horrible?
(laughs) Yes, I think that may have been the main cause. Or maybe I am too annoying. There have been long periods when I just couldn’t find a job, and I had to work in bars. Sometimes I wondered what I would do if my acting career would never work out…
But now we can see you in cinemas as Prince Caspian. Is it right that you got the part because of a little bit of cheating?
Uhm… yes, actually! During the auditions I said I could ride a horse quite good. ‘I have been on a horse a couple of times’, those were my exact words. Later on I could my mother to ask whether I’d ever ridden a horse. She showed me a very funny picture from when I was eight and riding a Shetland pony. So far my horseback riding experience!
You still had to ride a lot during the film. A great challenge?
Yes, especially when I had to go through a river on the horse, twice!. The first time in new-Zealand, the second time in Slovenia. In Slovenia the water was so deep the horse had to swim. I had to train pretty hard on the riding before we started shooting. I did have a body double who could take over from me, but I didn’t ‘use’ him that often.
Before ‘Prince Caspian’ you have had a small part in ‘Stardust’. Do you have to hit the girls away from you? (okay, this question might sound stupid, but I couldn’t translate it any more decent)
No, but I would be very good at it now, after all the battle training for ‘Prince Caspian’. I still find it very weird when I arrive at a hotel and there are fans waiting for me to sign posters. How the hell do they know where I’m staying if I myself know it only one day ahead?
In the mean time the entire world knows your face because it stands on huge ‘Prince Caspian’-posters everywhere. Is that weird?
Yes, very weird! Yesterday, my brother Jack had a laugh about it. ‘That’s not really you, the guy on the poster is solarium-brown!’ he said. On Sunset Boulevard in LA hangs a giant poster, it’s about ten storey’s high. When I saw it, I kind of panicked. It should be flattering and cool, but it made me kind of nervous.
There is at least one celebrity very impressed of you: actor Colin Firth (from ‘Bridget Jones’ Diary’) has said in an interview that you are so talented that it’s annoying!
(laughs) But Colin and I are very in love with each other. Ever since we made the movie ‘Easy Virtue’ together, I keep calling him to ask his advice. It’s not easy to find someone in this world who understands your position and what you are going through. But Colin is one of the sweetest people I know. In ‘Easy Virtue’ he played my father, and since then, he signs every text message with ‘love, Daddy’. (laughs)
Speaking of your ‘daddy’: runs acting through the family?
No, not at all. My mother is a psychotherapist and my father is a psychiatrist who loves rock-‘n-roll very much. They told me to go to university after high school, so I could have a proper education. But that wasn’t what I wanted. I wanted to be an actor. Only when mum and dad stopped nagging about it about two years later, I went to study English Literature at the university.
You just told us your father is into rock-‘n-roll. Which music do you love?
Thanks to my father I love the Beatles and the Rolling* Stones. When I was ten, I found in his wardrobe a Stevie Wonder record, now I like him too. But I also love to listen modern music, like Artic Monkeys and Kanye West. It all depends of my mood. I’m a true music fan, but for now, I’ll stick with acting.
What do you think of actors who bring out an album?
I think you have to look at them separately, but usually, their albums aren’t good. I think every actor wants to be a rock star, and every singer secretly wants to be an actor. My admiration is bigger towards actors who play music just for fun, although it can be very annoying when someone is good at absolutely everything. Skandar Keynes, who plays Edmund Pevensie in ‘Prince Caspian’, is someone like that. On set, he was always singing and playing the guitar…
Just one small question that will very much interest our readers: do you have a girlfriend?
No, I’m still single, so bring on all the interesting and funny girls! (laughs)



So that's it. I hope you enjoyed it. I certainly have!!

Just looked it up - I saw Easy Virtue. I thought it was made before Prince Caspian, but apparently not! I don't think I've seen him in any other films... Possibly Stardust because I watched some of it before.

Interesting interview there. Ooh, and Colin Firth! :) And gosh, Ben does look different in that photo with the short hair and clearer stubble...
 
Yes That was done after PC,actually. The interview was just taken later.
OH and it looks like our Angel has a few long lost cousins:

Now looks like Jack has some competition:D
 
I was just thinking,I WANNA BE NO 1 BENONITE SCOUT!!!!
I have a collection of 262 pics already and I know how to follow someone around on the internet,even if the think they aren't on it:D
(and NO i'm not a stalker)
I'll get more pics up soon but I have some news.
I was asking Vicky the other day if she thought he swore,because I wondered if it was just in the blood.
But she said nah,she only thinks people do it because of where they're bred and who they're around.
BUT HE SWORE ANYWAY!!!!
I was looking around on interviews and he did!
Sorry,I was just trying to find his darker side and I think I found out more than I wanted to.
He thinks being in fluffy films is "pointless".
But that is completely ironic considering Easy Virtue is a chick flick.
So think thats some "tough" talk he saying just so people'll take him seriously and not call him "pretty boy"?
I was thinking about what to do in my book because I have to try and get inside his head to write it,but I really don't like a lot of what's in it.
So I take what I can and add some innocence.
Thats what I pretended to tell him, "I don't care how dark you want to be,THIS is a CHILDRENS'S book!":D
Plus I don't think he realizes 20,30% of his fan base is little tweenagers who can't see half the stuff he's in! Maybe he does,maybe he doesn't,I dunno.
Maybe theses annoying chicks that show up at his hotel room are twenty,maybe not.
Okay enough negative talk,now for the funny.
I was scrolling around on google when I found a video of his house!!
Well it was his parent's house but He totally taped it because you can see his shadow and its totally his voice talking on the back round.(heres the link:http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-1995059106144281607#)
Also I found another vid of him as a teen skateboarding but no one else on the webz thinks that him,(plus the vid is TERRIBLE quality so you can't really make anything out anyway)Theres two parts and I haven't seen the 2nd so I'm gonna watch it.
I believe he actually goes on the web sometimes because where are all these personal vids of him coming from?
Plus on the description on Youtube,there's only on sentance or word.
Suspicious!
Hee hee,hope you enjoyed this segment.
Your thoughts on what I said?
 
I'm priming this thread a bit,
I have a feeling our precious Ben is about to do something stupid again:(
Everytime something bad happens to someone I know or love I have weird dreams about it.
The last two dreams I had were about him. The most current one is of him dissing christians:eek:
OH PLEASE DON'T LET HIM DO IT GOD! Everything's turning their backs on me!
*snif* also,look REALLY closely at my siggie. Don't you notice on the left picture me and him's face look really similar? I was like staring at it forever,and I was like "I could be your sister!"
Ha ha,well that's all. PLEASE DON'T LET HIM DO SOMETHING STUPID!
EVERYONE! QUICK! WRITE FAN LETTERS!:D

First of all let me say I do NOT want you to feel responsible for any choices Ben makes. I know you love Ben and want what's best for him. I think you may want to consider your words very carefully before you post them on the web where it is unlikely but possible he may find them. I have read some things on the web that concern me a bit. When I read the post quoted above I prayed and I have been praying. But I also thought ya know that would make sense for him to bash Christians I mean have you thought about some of the things Christians have said about him after he did "that movie". if he isn't a Christian it would seem the natural response to retaliate. Also if he isn't saved it wouldn't make sense for us to expect him to act like he is. He is an actor. He is probably not so nice a guy as Caspian and not near so bad as Dorian Gray.
IMHO. Take it for what you will.

QUITE MAKING ME CRY WOMAN! *Bawls*
I'm in enough puberty related emotional problems as it is!*sniff*
And I don't think Ben will ever find what I say,but if he does and tries to respond(hypothetically)in a reasoning sort of way about how he's and "actor" he's just "acting" By God I'll chew him out till kingdom come!!!
And no I didn't see what christians said about him after DG,and I don't WANT To.
I was curious once and tried to get inside his head,and I really didn't like it.
I know I shouldn't feel responsible for someone elses actions,but seriously.
When I truly deeply love someone,I can't really help it.
I scare myself sometimes because it's like,I care for him like my own blood and flesh and I don't even know the guy!!
Back to him "acting" he keeps saying that he likes to explore different characters and get inside their heads and what not.But what kind of sicko would WANT to get inside Dorian's head?
And chish,he DID NOT really bash christians,I just had a bad dream about it.
I just hope he didn't though. I always have bad dreams when someone's about to do something stupid and I just really really REALLY hope he didn't do something stupid.
My parents know I like him,and they're just like, "Oh she has a celebrity crush" "You wanna marry Ben Barnes don't you," But they don't know how much about him I know....A LOT OF IT!
The only reason I've been freaking out right now is because Awhile ago I began writing a funny fan fic about silly adventures I made up about him,Andrew Adamson,Robert Pattinson,and a made up girl named Norah Jones.
So after it went into production I decided,"Hey I should try and capture his real personality" so I began looking around for interviews.
I read about two before I decided that wasn't really a good Idea.
He keeps talking about how he doesn't want to be in fluffy films and that it's "pointless." Which rules out any hope for me to see any good kids films besides that pitiful excuse for a movie VOTD>o<.
I find it a bit of bluffing because Easy Virtue is a chick flick,which is considered "fluffy".
I mean EV,was not dark or interesting at all! It got the worst reviews ever and was probably the fluffiest,silliest chick flick I've ever seen!
Ben Barnes you little bluffer!
Makes me think of the words of this paramore song:
"And now,you can't turn back..because this road is all you'll ever have!
And its obvious that you're dying dying,just living proof that that camera's lying
and oh oh open wide
Cuz this is your night,so smile!
Yeah yeah you're asking for it! With every breath that you breath in! Just breath it in!
Yeah yeah you do all this big talking,so now lets see you walk it! I said lets see you walk it!"

Makes me laugh when I hear it.
Speaking of the dark attitude again,Did you read the post above you? I told him in my head, "I don't care HOW DARK you want to be,THIS IS A CHILDREN'S BOOK!"
So I decided to STAY AWAY from interviews and just work with the remaining innocence in that bloody brit.
I plan to publish it when I'm still young though,he'll pick it up because it says Mr. B on it,and the description has his name it,so he'll take it home and read it.
Theres' a disclaimer in the beginning though,and he'll get through that and laugh and think It's funny.
Then he'll go through the book and he'll be like, "I wouldn't do that!" "I wouldn't say that!" "That never happened!"
And when he gets to the part where I describe his parent's house he'll say, "Hey that sounds just like my parent's house...wait a minute!"
Hee hee,I'm in a better mood again:D
After saying all this,My siggie sounds pretty stupid:p
But anyway,I really don't care what if he sees what I think of him.
It makes me feel better when I let out what I feel about someone,and now I'm not angry at him anymore!!!
And yes I'll take him for what he is.
When i'm in LOVE,with capital letters,like truly deeply more than ANY OF YOU BENONITES ever will be,I can let things slide.
I mean,people will do bad things sometimes,I mean I'm not a perfect angel either.
I've been REAL bad before,gotten in some real hot water.
When you really really love someone,you might be mad at them for certain things for a little while(Like my parents do) but you still love them and will forgive them♥♥♥♥
Ahhhhh that felt gooooood to get out.
lets just hope he doesn't ever decide to go anywhere but youtube:)
OMG I talked sooooooooooooooooo much....hee hee sorry for gnawing your ears off!

It's ok :) I'm not trying to make you feel bad. I understand how it feels to care so deedly about someone believe it or not :) I didn't say he has bashed Christians. I was suggesting that Christians shouldn't provoke him to do so. I don't think you're trying to offend and I very much doubt you are, as he doesn't like to keep track of what people are saying about him. My previous post was just a suggestion and I am not trying to make any accusations. Of course you are free to post your feelings wherever you like.
 
I hope those dang conservatives don't provoke him:(
Y'a see,my dad really doesn't agree with much of their views and most of them are a bit wrong,and so they come off as self-righteous and annoying(the politicians.) So I really hope they don't provoke him,because I'll get all mad again.
I kind of made up though:)
I mean,its not like I can talk to him,but I sort of forgave him and now I'm happy.
I was mostly upset because when he's got these weird oppinions it takes away the sweet funny comedy from my book.
So Basically I found a COMPLETELY made up way to fix that,and not think about his oppinions.
Here's the solution:
Mr. B(ben,I'll say ben) Has just been talking big on PC interviews and saying how the fluffy films are pointless.
Then of course he signs up to do Easy Virtue which is...seriously..the silliest romance chick flick(totally fluffy) ever written.
So On the night of the premier Norah Jones(the maid) is washing the dishes from supper and he's getting already and he hears her singing to the song on her iPod.
Its that fences song and he hears the lyrics which are:
I'm sitting in a room,
Made up of only big white walls and indoor halls
There's people looking through
The window though they know exactly what we're here for.

Don't look up
Just let them think
There's no place else
You'd rather be.

You're always on display
For everyone to watch and learn from,
Don't you know by now,
You can't turn back
Because this road is all you'll ever have.

And it's obvious that you're dying, dying.
Just living proof that the camera's lying.
And open wide, 'cause this is your night.
So smile, 'cause you'll go out in style.
You'll go out in style.

If you let me I could,
I'd show you how to build your fences,
Set restrictions, separate from the world.
Because the ground that you hate to fight,
Just blame the limelight.

Don't look up
Just let them think
There's no place else
You'd rather be.

And now you can't turn back
Because this road is all you'll ever have.

And it's obvious that you're dying, dying.
Just living proof that the camera's lying.
And open wide, 'cause this is your night.
So smile.

Yeah, yeah you're asking for it
With every breath that you breathe in
Just breathe it in.
Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess
You do all this, big talk, yeah..
So now let's see you walk it.
I said let's see you walk it.

Yeah, yeah well you're just a mess
You do all this, big talk, yeah.
So now let's see you walk it.
I said let's see you walk it.

And it's obvious that you're dying, dying.
Just living proof that the camera's lying.
And oh oh open wide, yeah oh oh open wide.
Yeah, oh oh open wide,
'Cause you'll go out in style.
You'll go out in style.
(sorry that was so long but you have to hear the whole thing)
So he hears the lyrics and he's like "meep",God I ought to live up to what I said...
Norah takes off her headphones and is like, "So,ready for the premier?"
So Ben hearing those words spirals into him wanting to choose his own roles(because his Agent Joeseph has been doing them up till now),which is of course Dorian Gray.
His excuse is this:
"I read the book in high school...the abridged version anyway. I thought it was reasonably dark and so I took the job."
He takes the job. But(I made this up) the director Oliver parker keeps changing the script making it nastier and nastier.
Ben is given a FAKE script for audition and therefore has no clue he was just suckered into the job.
After the first few shots(which are horrible) Ben wants to quite but Oliver knows no other handsome brit can replace him and starts black mailing him to keep acting by saying:"Listen here sonny,you either do this gig or I'll revoke that maid of yours' permit and send your little crush back to the states!"
Ben:"No!"
Oliver:"I'll burn that little sock monkey you're always carrying around!"
Ben:"NO! Not Eddie!"
Oliver:"AND I'll give Robert the keys to your house!"
Ben:"NOT ROBERT PATTINSON!"

So he just grins and bears it and does the job,for Norah's sake.
He lies on all the interviews and well..acts.
Norah gets real mad at him when she sees Dorian at the premier(and vomits in the cinema) and so she won't talk to him or ANYTHING!
Ben tries to make up with her several times and tries to make her laugh with all the usual gimmicks.
(Of course,being a man he won't just apologize! Sheesh I dunno why they do that.)
So finally they both get in a terrible argument and Norah's screaming at him:"Why'd you do it? I saw those interviews! What happened to that nice man I work for? You demon!"
Ben retaliates: "I had no other choice! They forced me!"
Norah:"Oh sure,you're just "acting" yeah right."
Ben:"I DID IT TO SAVE YOU!"
He tells her that Oliver was real tight with the government and so he could revoke Norah's temporary immigration permit before she could become a citizen.
Norah forgives him but makes him promise No more dark films.
But then she tells him she wants to read something to him.
She comes out with a Bible and starts witnessing and so she's trying to coax him into the idea.
Ben is still acting as dumb as a brick and pretends to do it,only so Norah will like him still.
(Plus you know,sinners HATE it when you shed light on their wrong doing.)
But his acting falls a little false when he does Locked In and he ticks her off again.
Norah keeps coaxing him into the idea and really pushes him.
Of course there was the fact he'd have no chance at ever marrying her if he wasn't gonna be serious,so he put his heart into it,and well....it works the scrooge principle.
He makes up with Andrew Adamson,and now Andrew doesn't strangle him anymore,and Ben witnesses to him as well.
Ben also is nice to Rob(who he won't let in the house) and he gives him REAL food and lets him stay in the house and is nice to him. Also he makes up with Rob's sister LIz who stole all his stuff in high school.
He exposes the whole truth about everything he ever lied about to the press(which results in a few beatings but Oh well.)
Finally He doesn't need Eddie anymore.
Eddie was a stuffed monkey he thought was real and talked to.
He says:"Now that I've been saved I can't really see Eddie the same anymore...It's like I don't...need him. So I put him away."
And the very last thing that happens is:Norah finally marries him.
They have a lovely wedding and in the epilogue there is a small adventure about when they have their first child Zoey Barnes.
A cute little ginger(like Vicky) who is exactly like her mum.
Thus ends the book.
Sorry that was so long but You had to hear the story.
I'm sure Ben would just sit there shaking his head at the book like,"I NEVER did that!" or "I didn't do that!" "Oliver was a nice person!"
I don't care though.
When you love someone you don't know and you make up a character based off him,you always incorporate some things you'd want him to do/be like even if they're fake.
Caspian fans do that,so I'm doing it with Ben.
End of post....no more paper left

Okay,I know I just posted a really long post and you're probably sick of me talking:D
But I found THIS weird pic of Ben:
Ben+Barnes%27s+EXTREMELY+TICKLISH+feet+tickled!.jpg

I have no clue where this is(probably japan) but it's really funny.
Plus we never see his feet or what his socks look like so YAY!
Speaking of which,are those therapeutic socks?
Beeeeeeeen!
And wow,his feet are really flat...*whistles*
 
Kay so NODODY but me and chish has been talking on here and now it's down to just me so I'll prime this pump a bit.
I was thinking about all the films Ben got lead parts in and I decided to look up Bigga than Ben. I dared not stick my nose too far as not to horrify myself as with DG,but I got enough possible without doing so. I only got a tiny synopsis of that film and by what I've read it sounds EXTREMELY funny.
Its basically these two broke russian boys who come to London trying to get rich quick and they discover that LEGALLY they ain't gonna get very far.
So they team up with this other guy named Artash and start doing ALL these ornery things.
Like Joy riding on the tube(illegal in london,don't see how that makes you rich but OKay.)
They turn cell phones into drugs and steal from supermarkets and looks like they steal police costumes at some point. Also there's some girl. There's ALWAYS a girl in these flicks,and I think Ben got the girl.
I don't know the whole story but my guess is he falls in love with a british girl and ruins the other two guy's scheme.
Kay anyway,heres some pics I made on Tinypic:
5meiw4.jpg

rmpa1f.jpg

In my oppinion,I LOVE ben's hair in this film. I like the long hair and all too,but when he cuts it short,I like this version better than in Easy Virtue.
I would've had another pic but my computer ATE IT!!!
So Maybe I can re-create it and do it again later.
Kay now someone ELSE swoon in here or I get first dibs when I move to London!!!:D
