Joe's inner Hermiod and his take on shipping :)

I love watching Joe's interviews and panels at conventions. He's not the "funny guy" David appears to be in similar stances and gives a lot of insight. But most of all, he makes you think.

Three Scifi interviews from 2007 (probably), when they were filming the 4th season, were uploaded on youtube by neeraffxi  and I like them sooo much:

Yeah, Joe seems to be more the intellectual guy in some ways - besides he is also really funny. But, as you said, he is intelligent and know how to use this intelligence.

I have to confess what made me so addicted was not his looks (although I can watch his pictures for hours...), but how he speaks and what he says when he's not acting. And I like his acting, of course, I think he's so subtle (if needed) and quite obvious, with so many expressions, when subtlety doesn't work.

funny... yeah... he's got a twisted little mind... LOL suffice to read his tweets...

Mh, here I have to say especially his tweets departed me for the first time. Just like I've said/written at GW and somewhere else: Maybe you take some of his tweets in another way when you are involved through personal experiences.
And unfortunately I have to say JM did a great job to me with his blog (in a very sarcastic way!!!). I found myself very often thinking about what JF had said in this or that interview and in the same time I am detecting failures in his words.
I would say "fanatic" never was a way I am a fan of something or someone because I looked with different, and sometimes very critical, eyes on the person/show/novel/whatever came up to my interest. Maybe it is the way I was risen by my parents because especially my father always told me not to act to frenetic about things I enjoy. But especially in the case JF I am mad to find any failure in und about him. Crazy, I know.

I don't read JM blog, it's too much food in there (although I have to admit, he's good with words, I'd love to read more, if he only wrote about other things...), so I don't know what you've found reveling there. As to Joe's tweets: it's so obvious he was putting an act there for us, his "public". He likes to be outrageous, that's for sure, and to stir controversy (that's why I said he has a twisted little mind LOL)...

All the alcohol tweets are the mere proof he was actually "performing" for us: when everybody was telling him they were too much, he kept posting them. He DOES have a problem with the authority, as he said several times.

He was never tweeting to "share with us his thoughts". And he definitely wasn't going to tell us what he'd had for breakfast, he clearly said he finds such tweets to be boring. I always took his tweets with a grain of salt, just as they were (in my opinion): pure comedy :))
