I thought for this final Thrusty Thursday post of the year, I'd take a look back at my favorite of the fifty-odd thrustees of the past twelve months. Do join me! In unbiased order of appearance, I give you my…
TOP TEN HE-FOXES OF 2011
1. The now tragically late Andy Whitfield, thrusted upon January 13:
2. Jamie Dornan, April 21:
3. Vincent Gallo, May 5:
4. David Gandy, June 9:
5. Romain Duris, July 14:
6. Sam Worthington, July 21:
7. Shirtless Jason Statham Rescuing a Baby Owl From a Fire, September 8:
8. Henrik Lundqvist (oh, Lundy), November 10:
9. Michael Fassbender, December 8:
10. Joe Manganiello, December 22:
Happy New Year, everyone! See you in 2012 with a fresh crop of man-flesh for your she-perving enjoyment. And hopefully by this time next year Gandy and Lundqvist will have finally settled the loin-burning question of who's more sickeningly handsome by naked-pudding-wrassling each other for the distinction. I will adjudicate, naturally.
Quick post to share that Welsh-Australian actor Andy Whitfield (Spartacus: Blood and Sand star and highly popular thrustee here on the Super Lucky #1 Fun Blog) passed away yesterday at age thirty-nine, after an eighteen-month battle with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Very sad. If you haven't seen Spartacus, I urge you to check it out on Netflix Instant Watcher—both Whitfield and the entire show are fantastic.
I noticed recently just how frequently this blog gets keyword traffic from people with good taste searching for "Andy Whitfield with a beard" and "Andy Whitfield with long hair". I'm afraid I've been luring those folks to my Thrusty Thursday post about the foxy Welsh / Australian Spartacus actor under false pretenses…but I'm now going to remedy that! And so I present, as a much-needed public service, screen grabs of Andy Whitfield with a beard and long hair! Get your sexy-Jesus kink on:
Foxy as a ye olde asse-kicker, foxy as a civilian.
If you're a pervert like me, you wish there were just hours and hours of 300 deleted scenes, full of muddy, muscly, stylized men fighting and shouting in ye olde ancient tymes. Well there is! It's called Spartacus: Blood and Sand, a Starz show that premiered in 2010, and is poised to come back for a second season at the end of this month. I just started it last night, and it didn't disappoint. It's mad-gory, but it's that over-the-top digitized gore that's borderline silly…too like a comic book to really make me flinch.
Anyhow, the chief fox is Spartacus, naturally, played in the first season by thirty-eight-year-old Welsh-slash-Australian actor Andy Whitfield. In the early episodes he's got long hair and a beard and a sort of sexy-caveman (or perhaps sexy-Jesus) thing going on, though I wasn't able to find any excellent pictures of this. No matter. He's foxy with short hair as well. If you're super pervy (you know who you are) you will be pleased to know he (and other ancient-times foxes, many with vaguely Antipodean accents) spend much of the show scantily clad and in shackles. Plus, there's a lot of softcore porno going on. Maybe that was just to juice up the pilot episode…but I hope not. It's like butts and boobs and thrustin' every-dag-where. A good show for husbands and wives to watch together, as there's something for everyone! Also, the chicks occasionally get to kick ass alongside the men. Blam!
Bonus: Spartacus is taped in New Zealand, the most thrust-upon-able nation on Earth.
Now for the bad news—Whitfield will not be returning as Spartacus in the second season, as he's currently battling non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Sadness! But don't let that diminish your enjoyment of his thrustability. If you have a Netflix subscription, sign in and click here to go to the Spartacus: Blood and Sand page. All thirteen episodes of season one are available on Instant Watcher, joy of joys.
