Never seen that film although I love the John Hughes movies.

I just ordered the Blu-ray despite the stupid German title: "Kevins Cousin allein im Supermarkt" ("Kevin's cousin alone in the Super Market").

My crush for Jennifer Connelly started 5 years earlier with the phantastic "Labyrinth" movie:

And she is still gorgeous in "Top Gun: Maverick" (2022) and "Dark Matter" (2024)

Another crush was Daryl Hannah in the 1984 movie "Splash":

Such a shame that this early Tom Hanks movie ain't available as Blu-ray or 4K UHD... so my DVD will have to do until a proper restoration is released.

And the streaming version of that innocent movie (rated PG / FSK6 back then) is cut and reedited on Disney+
Some of the most unnecessary cuts ever!

Damn I never made the connection before now, she's also Melanie Cavill in Snowpiercer. Yep she stood out from Labyrinth and has aged beautifully.

Damn was just going to post Jennifer Connelly and then half the thread is already about her haha.

Interestingly my girlfriend looks pretty close to her in the 90s (nose, hair, lips and body just with browner eyes) so I guess that's still the kind of woman I like the most.

Probably Rikku from Final Fantasy X, but I'm not exactly sure why. I mean, she's great, I'm not sure what exactly caught my attention. Obvliously she's pretty, but even more obviously that can't be the only thing, so it's got to be something about her personality. I'm guessing positivity, the way she shows her weakness as well, and her being kind of different (in a certain way) might contribute to that. Might also have something to do with her liveliness. I don't know. I have no recipe for what I look for in women, and I've never had one. I like a lot of things, but it's the whole that's important.

On the other hand, I really dislike what they did to her in X-2. Of course it's not like they treated her any worse than Yuna - if anything, Yuna got utterly ruined. It's only fitting that they have Paine to go along them, who, for some reason, seems like the mature one of the three, despite Yuna's maturity in X.

Anyway, I think Rikku is probably the only celebrity/fictional person I think I could somewhat reasonably call a crush. There might've been some shorter interests in other people/characters as well but nothing I remember anymore, so they probably don't really count.
