Embarrassing childhood movie crushes

Has anyone had embarrassing crushes on cartoon/movie characters as a child/young teenager?

As a child, I had a massive thing for Jafar from Disney's Aladdin, lol. The Jafar fantasy carried on for quite a while when I was a teenager. My friends take the piss out of me for it, and I don't blame them! I also had a thing for Hades from Hercules. No accounting for taste!

As an older teenager, I developed a vampire obsession, and had a thing for Lestat from 'Queen of the Damned' and Gary Oldman as Dracula... oh dear haha

What are yours?

Anyway I should stop procrastinating on here and get on with my college work...

  • True. But, feminist as I am, at that age I had no notion that the bikinis had anything to do with male gaze. In fact, the notion of 'sexiness' would have been beyond me. If they were in a bikini, that must have been because it was hot or they were going swimming, right? Lol.

    They were nevertheless a bit ground breaking as there really weren't too many action women out there.

    I would view them a bit differently now.

    Adam Ant was a few years later - I'd worked out 'sexy' by then.
