Ah, HP wank. Is there any other kind?
As the internet is no doubt aware by now, DanRad gets to root a horse in the play Equus, which he'll be performing some time next year. That 'root a horse' bit might be pre-emptive hyperbole, but it's close enough.

So I thought to myself when the news started circulating around the internet a bit more, "gee, I bet that there will be idiocy over at Mugglenet about this casting decision." My tremendous wank-catalyst powers said: yes, twas indeed so. While most of the responses have been "ZOMG YOU GUYS WE NEED TO SEE THIS!!!" and fairly positive, there have been some charmingly wonderful comments.



There's moral outrage wank!

Posted by Kinz 14 hours ago: I seriously can't believe Dan would accept a role like that!!!!!!!!!! Hey, is he out of roles? I can't even imagine him in such state. Anyway we'll see.

There's "zomg why didn't you credit MEEEEE" wank!

Posted by Gabriel 14 hours ago: Just so that everyone knows the truth, as I'm sick and tired of Mugglenet never giving proper credit, the news was ALSO confirmed to Page over at DanRadcliffe.co.uk as exclusive. You should update your post to be fair to both sites. Just because DR.co.uk isn't "your partner site" doesn't mean you should "cloud" the facts.

There's "pimp dem danrad! hos!" wank!

Posted by voldiesgirlfriend 13 hours ago: what is up with you girls(and maybe) boys who want to see dan nude??? i don't think his parents would want him nude just to make so money, i mean that is meaning like a prostitute (sp?)! well anyway i am glad he is doing more than Harry Potter. cheers

There's moral outrage at him playing a 'psyco' character! (???)

Posted by futuremrsradcliffe 12 hours ago: I don't really care if he is nude but yeah I would have to agree that this play is only for 16 year olds or older if he does play nude. I don't really think that parents should let underage kidswatch this play if the main character is psyco.

There's "YOU'RE ON A MORAL SLIPPERY-SLOPE INTO PORN" wank!

Posted by Witch_Eva 12 hours ago: Dan.... Nude?... OMG... That's soo not Dan... Dan is such a cute boy... I really can't imagine that he's nude on stage... But I love him so if he's nude I really want to see it... But No please Dan not nude... Because if you do that,you have a big chance that you end up in porn movies or so...

There's bad!math wank!

Posted by leroy_jenkins666 15 hours ago: It has been said before, but Daniel Radcliffe doesn't turn eighteen for another three years...

All in all, a wank we can all get behind.

Good for him for playing out of type. I'm not intrested in seeing it though. I've already read the porn, tt's nothing new in HP fandom.

I'm still not sure what I think of this. It's a rather...odd part. Certainly not one I would have taken if I were him, but it's his career and, after all, it's only a part.

Because all actors that do nude scenes end up in porn. Just ask Ewan McGregor and John Travolta.

Radcliffe is going to star in Equus? Good for him. It's an excellent play, if somewhat disturbing.

You know, I'm really surprised that there isn't even more wank on this. These tidbits are delicious, however, especially the one about prostitution. Because the definition of prostitute is totally getting nekkid in a play. XD

bzuh? Are they trying to claim they were the only sites on the internet with this info? Because it's been all over the place - I first heard about it on the G4 network for pete's sake.

I won't even go into my feelings on the nudity=porn crowd. Hello people, art?

Would someone please be so kind as to tell me what this play is about? Because I doubt the entire thing revolves around Dan naked on a horse.

But I love him so if he's nude I really want to see it... But No please Dan not nude...

. . . while I question the boy's acting chops, it's a brave choice on his part. I hope he succeeds.

EQUUS is a bitch of a play to pull off, even harder to pull off well. It's a huge step up from the HARRY POTTER films, and if he does pull Alan off and the play sells out, he'll probably never have to worry about being typecast as Harry Potter the way Christopher Reeve did after SUPERMAN.

At this point, I just wonder if it's possible for anything to happen HP-related that won't eventually cause huge clouds of wank.

My, my. I certainly can't imagine why Radcliffe would want to tear himself away from the possibility of being a man trapped in a boy wizard's body the rest of his life.

A few comments from emmawatson.net,
http://emmawatson.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=25452:

smartperson: I cant belive this guy would agree to playing a mad boy who rides horses naked in the dark and has to say the least an errotic relationship with them.

Plus when he has sex with that girl in the barn he imagines she is a horse ....

He must be preety desperate to prove himself as an actor or something.


This one is just funny because the person is a known Harmonian:
COOLCAROLINE: I want to add: I am not being 'rude' or sounding 'selifish' but I wish Dan would not be doing HBP. I think?..he is better off-doing different roles in different kind of movie...or doing is some-kind of play like this one.

Then she answers the previous comment I posted:
first: well believed it!! Dan is doing this 'play' if you like it or not.
second: how you know if he will be having sex with girl in barn?..did you read book.
third: he is pretty 'desperate' to prove himself as 'actor' didn't you read. He is doing this because he want 'challenge' as an actor. And he want to prove to himself, that he can do this...period.

if you have nothing nice to said: don't posted!!


Enters the 'filmmaker':
Patty_S: .....but as a filmmaker I think he is taking this carrer very serious and I am gald he is taking risks, he is not desperate to prove he is a good actor, he is going to do something that is very artistic, sadly some people are to thick to understand art....!!!

Then, WILL SOME1 THINK OF THE CHILDRUN (or the child)??
Kiramada_Potter: come on I mean what parent would let there child at the age of 17, be on stage naked? Would his parents allow this?

Someone is a bit clueless:
rawr-colour: ol this may be random, but i still dont understand in the nudity scenes do u see everything ?

Then Teh Judgement:
lovebuzz:For goodness sake, you Dan fans, stop saying Dan is a 'real' actor. Wth is a 'real actor' anyway? Someone that is willingly to go naked in roles? Playing bizzare roles?

I think it's absurd that his parents are allowing his to do this, he is not old enough to do this. This is not a good move for him, at all. He doesn't have to go naked in a role to get recognition.

Stop going on about him being a great actor, because if you hadn't noticed, he's not been nominated for an Oscar yet!

[...]
ou can be a great actor without getting naked on stage and poking eyes out. If you think this role sounds good, if you want to see it when it comes out, you are truly strange, indeed.


Oh snap! Lots of fun!

Yes, just think of all the Hollywood actors who have done nude scenes and then ended up in porn. No respectable actor would ever get naked.

*rolls eyes*

And what's with all these people being disturbed? Are they new to the fandom? Because I've read HP fic that is far more disturbing than this play.

Like all the Star Trek actors who have been pigeon holed before him, Dan is going to have to turn to the stage and indie films to establish that he is a reliable actor. It's the only way to go.
