So, what's your general opinion on James Mcavoy?

This dude.

I've only seen him in Shameless, X-Men 1st Class and Wanted, but I love all those things :D
I think he would be a good James Bond one day..

Anway, opnions? Like/hate?

Cool dude.

Would like to see him in a good leading-role, something to breakaway from the films he's known for.. Wanted and X-Men. Whenever I see him on screen, I expect him to be reserved, witty and snarky.

Hypothetical: He would have been a good fit for Fight Club (replacing Edward Norton), in my opinion. Though Ed Norton is pretty bad ass.

Yeah, I saw Wanted just after Fight Club, and I kept thinking of Ed Norton's character when he was talking about his life and stuff..

I still think his best performance was in the modern re-imagining of MacBeth with Vincent Regan. Gave plenty of depth to the character...

Also... he's much better than Michael Fassbender at covering up his accent. His RP English was a tad forced at times in X-Men: First Class, but it was quite a bit better than Michael Fassbender's, you could hear so much Irish come through at times...

Sean, you make waaaaaay too many threads >.<
I'm not too sure if there's a rule against it, but some people might get annoyed with the constant churning out of threads.

OT: I like him, I haven't seen him in much but he's a good actor. Think he did that Sport Relief football thingy so I'd say he's a pretty nice guy too.
Made a pretty good Professor X IMO.

Thought his best role was in The Last King of Scotland. Were it not for Forest Whitaker he would've been the best actor in that movie.

I've only seen him in X-men First Class, and I loved it. He's batting a thousand for me right now.

Hate Wanted and Shameless, loved First Class, but not because of him. He's alright though, just not great.

He's a sexy beast! XD

He was also in Band of Brothers for two episodes, and Fassbender was in it too, for seven episodes if I remember right.

He's the Super OP! :D
Been making tons of the threads since his early days - shine on you crazy diamond Sean!!

OT: I'm a James McAvoy fan (Capital A, btw) - and like his less-well-known stuff like Starter For 10 as well.

He was in Children of Dune (the SciFi miniseries)! He played Leto II! If that doesn't give you geek-cred, I don't know what else does...

I enjoyed him quite a bit as Xavier in "X-Men: First Class". Otherwise I haven't seen any of his other performances.
