Scanner-Reader-Inspired "Who Would You Rather": DD Lewis vs. Bardem

Posted by Katie Halper

The People have spoken. Or the Scanner-readers have commented. In response to Tuesday's On Our To-Do List: Javier Bardem post, Andrea Gorenstein, an engaged Scanner citizen, exercised her blog-given rights, and sparked a healthy debate, writing: "Just waiting for a 'who would you rather' Day-Lewis vs. Bardem!"

Well, we at Scanner know that this kind of Gorensteinian civic participation strengthens our Scannerocracy. So we now open the blogging floor to debate  the Bardem-Lewis European 2008 Oscar-winning Ratherability Act. Speak up readers! Or forever hold your comments.

Bardem, hands down, without a shadow of a doubt, for ever and ever, amen.

Bardem, even in that ugly hair cut.

Maybe it's because I'm really not gay, but I couldn't possibly choose between these two.

I'd have to go with surtsey on this one. (Not, not that I'd rather surtsey, I mean I'd stretch my straw across the room. Okay, that didn't come out right...)

I WOULD have said Daniel Day Lewis.  I really would have.  But then I watched the Oscars.  I'm really disturbed by his earring.  I'm not sure why.  I usually don't mind earrings on men.  But there's something about it....it's just wrong.

So, Bardem, I guess.

Daniel Day Lewis???  How on earth could you even consider having sex with someone who says something like this: “it seems to me that this [Oscar] sprang like a golden sapling out of the mad, beautiful head of Paul Thomas Anderson.”

Blech.  Please.  Gross.

Hmm, Celtic Tiger, or Iberian Tiger (credit USAToday special section on Spain)?  I 'heart' Ireland, but if I have to choose, Javi's the one who makes it race.

Senor Bardem! Si, yo quiero! AHIIIIIIIIIII!!! (Bursts into inspired flamenco stomp and twirl, accompanied by lustful grimace)

Bardem!

DDL looked hotter in the movie than he did at the Oscars. Vice versa for Bardem. I'd say Bardem even though the pirate look is totally hot.

Bardem, definitely.

Andrea Gorenstein (DDL Milkshake wannabe) said:

Is that the "Hottest Ugly Man Alive" edition?

=p

Man, I´m a Bardem´s stalker since the very Jamón, Jamón days....But, hell, Day-Lewis has been, to me, what di Caprio has been to you average Seventeen reader in the 90´s...!! I´d drain his oil ocean dry!

DDL-Milkshake-wannabes, unite!

    • about the blogger

    Emily Farris writes about culture and food for numerous publications and websites you've probably never heard of, including her own blog eefers. Her first cookbook will be published in fall 2008. Emily lives in Greenpoint, Brooklyn with her cat, but just one . . . so far.

    Brian Fairbanks is a filmmaker living in the wilds of Brooklyn. He previously wrote for the Hartford Courant and Gawker. He won the Williamsburg Spelling Bee once. He loves cats, women with guns, and burning books.

    Nicole Pasulka is a Brooklyn writer and editor who's always on the lookout for the dirty. Her other virtual home is at The Morning News, where things are squeaky clean most of the time.
