That was my reaction, too. "What? He...what?!" And the only reason I saw it is that I became a bit of a Bale fan after Batman Begins (another movie my friends had to drag me to; I'm beginning to think they know more about what movies I'll like than I do). Newsies isn't really my type of movie, but the period setting grabbed me.
I came to M&C (and thus met grace_poppy) by way of Russell Crowe, whom I've been a fan of for a long time. The setting helped, too, as I also like Sharpe and Hornblower. I've read the first couple books, and it's only lack of time that keeps me from getting deeper into it.
