This is so awesome! If you know me then you may know two of my obsessions are Ryan Gosling and the movie ‘Drive’. This is a really cool animation apparently made in Photoshop!

Gosling
Blue Valentine: Credits
I was trying to explain to my friend earlier that the credits from Derek Cianfrance’s ‘Blue Valentine’ are probably the most powerful part of the movie. In the end, it was better to just let her watch them.
I cry every time I see this movie. I can identify with issues they had in their marriage. This film is hard to watch but the credits…just amazing and beautiful xx

The Gosbot Phenomenon: Pre-Coffee Ramblings of a Woman on the Edge
I have a feeling we are coming close to Gosling meltdown. The internet can’t hold any more pics and info about him. It is going to split at the seams!
Yesterday morning around 6.30am, I started having the strangest conversation with David Harper (‘A Slice of Fried Gold’) about his blog post Ryan Gosling = King of the World. I must add this conversation took place before I had coffee. I can’t be held responsible for my ramblings pre-coffee.
Thanks to David for keeping me entertained

I think men everywhere need to be scared. You are close to extinction. I don’t think I know one woman that doesn’t fancy Ryan Gosling and think ‘father of my babies’ at the same time. Soon we will only need Gosling (and possibly some clones) to keep the human race going

Ha! I don’t disagree. It’s like the comic “Y the Last Man,” except the rest of are still here, just obsolete. I don’t blame you though. I’d be cool with him being my hetero life mate/best friend. I MIGHT be overshadowed by him, however.

Actually, someone else wrote that very soon the world will get to ‘Gosling saturation point’. He is everywhere like some kind of bacteria right now! He is also *too* perfect. ‘Gosbot’ (my nickname for him) will malfunction live on TV or in a NYC street in the very near future.

I feel like he’s too smart for that though. He previously got pretty close to that point after The Notebook, but then he hid for a while, did some renowned indies, didn’t act for a bit, and then BAM. 2011. BAM. Superhero.
He’s already laid the groundwork by saying he’s going to quit acting to make babies. Whether or not that’s with the whole of humanity is the only uncertain part. “Gosbot” though is amazing. Him being a cyborg of some sort would make a scary amount of sense…

This is turning into a conversation, but you are awake so “discuss” :p
This whole thing, ‘The Gosbot Phenomenon’ (have I just coined another phrase?) could be a movie about why both women and men seem to love him (sometimes inexplicably). Or they could make one called ‘Being Ryan Gosling’ and include all the clones so they have a chance to be ‘real human beings’ and do a real job after impregnating all of us.
There is a supreme alien race ‘high fiving’ on a distant planet. Implanting Gosbot was their best idea yet! I can see this turning into a blog of it’s own. We should write it! X

I could totally see this becoming a blog, or a Tumblr page of some variety. The whole “Gosbot Phenomenon” (which I enjoy by the way) I think was preceded to a certain degree by JT Fever, in which men and women equally enjoyed Justin Timberlake after the release of FutureSex/LoveSounds and his incredibly awesome performances as a host of Saturday Night Live.
Unlike JT though, I can’t imagine Gosling owning it. He sort of seems like a guy who just wants to go to Whole Foods, get his whole grain bagels, and do his own thing.
Could you imagine a reality show following Ryan Gosling around? It’s ratings wouldn’t be represented by a number, it would just say “humanity” next to it.
But yes, our alien overlords are definitely pleased by how swimmingly the Gosbot infiltration has played out. It’s going so well, and we willingly relent to his benevolent rule!

This is becoming deep, and I have only been awake for about an hour, and I haven’t had coffee yet! The JT thing never really captured me. He was too manufactured to ever be in the same league as Gosbot.
I never even thought of JT until you mentioned him. He was getting there but I think outside of the whole music thing, the guy is pretty dull. He was like the first prototype for Gosbot that never really took off.
They were both Mouseketeer’s? Or whatever Disney drivel they used to be in…
slicefriedgold
They were! Gos even lived with JT and his family during filming! Oh my god, is it possible that they were manufactured in the same line?! Gosbot is clearly version 2.0.
/mind blown
Get some coffee!
lostlifefound
No! Don’t trample on my dreams! He can’t be manufactured. He has got to be this real. I could have been that British lady he saved in NYC. I am British and I was in NY late last year hoping that I would drop my shopping and suddenly [he would] appear from out of nowhere and say “Hey girl, Let me get that for you” and I wouldn’t be able to speak. I would just watch as my ovaries fell out and rolled into the road along with my apples :/
Gosbot saving a Brit is as close as I will ever get to living that dream!
slicefriedgold
Haha! That is amazing. I hope you get your chance to be saved by him. If you ever see him in public, make sure to immediately put yourself into a role that can only be described as “damsel in distress.”
Checkmate Gosbot. Checkmate.
Drive: What I Would Think If I Was Irene
Being Ryan Gosling Must Be Hard Work
This is going to be the most shallow blog I have posted, but I’ll allow it just this once. Anyone who know’s me offline has heard about my crush on Ryan Gosling, also known as ‘My Movie Hubby’. I can remember the first time I watched him – not stalked him, but watched him on DVD. I had bought ‘Half Nelson‘ for £3 in the HMV sale. It looked pretty good, but nothing prepared me for my reaction when I saw him. I think my mouth fell open and I may have mouthed the words “Jesus, wow, wow, wow” and I may even have drooled a bit or something really similar as I lost control of my facial muscles. Since then, I have been hooked.
I was never a band groupie when I was younger, never had much of a thing for actors either, so I can’t really explain why I am so besotted. Maybe my body clock is ticking, but I know we would make beautiful babies!
After watching ‘Half Nelson’ and ‘Lars and the Real Girl‘ I started asking people if they had heard of Ryan and I would usually be greeted with “Ryan, who?” Usually followed with “Ah, the guy from that movie…Oh yeah, Noah from The Notebook“. So I got that out on DVD too, and not being much of a ‘chick flick’ type I didn’t expect to like it but again Ryan delivered and even managed to make the guy I watched it with burst into tears.
Ryan is partly responsible for my recent bout of what I can only think is OCD. I have been to see Drive at least seven times. I say “at least” because that doesn’t include times I have booked and not been able to go because I have worked late or something else came up.
Why is this guy so gorgeous to the point of distraction? I will say though it is gorgeous in that David Beckham type of way…and then he speaks and the really nasal voice doesn’t really do him justice. But back to his most beautiful points:
- Did I say he is handsome? To the point that I actually caught my breath when he smiles at Irene in Drive. It must be hard being Ryan Gosling. He has to keep up that level of hotness every day. It can’t be easy!
- He seems to be a very nice, good person
- He loves animals
- He is in a band, and they are pretty good! (Is it too late to be a groupie?)
- He practices Yoga
- He has talked in interviews about the close bond with his mother and sister.
- He stepped in and stopped a street fight in NYC! If I had been in that fight, I would have stopped just to stare at him.
I have always loved a bad boy but I am seriously thinking that all my life I made a huge mistake and this is the type of guy I should have taken home to meet ‘Mommy Dearest’. Or is this all a front and underneath it all Mr Gosling is actually the bad boy I lust after? Anyway, I’ll keep dreaming whilst my body clock keeps ticking away.
