We had a poll yesterday (HERE), and it's still open for a few hours more.
On that topic, sort of, I'm wondering about why we're attracted to one or the other of the two lead actors.  Is it about the actors or the characters themselves?
As one who was in the throes of Beatlemania when MFU appeared on our TV screens, I'll admit that the appeal of another long haired, tutrtleneck wearing fellow who happened to have a delicious sounding accent just played into the mood of the day.  Having said that however, I'd still be an Illya girl if it all started again right now, with those actors.  And to be honest, I have the same reaction to the movie (in spite of the strange quirks they've given to the Russian).  I prefer Army over Henry in this new age of UNCLE.
So, any thoughts or comments on the subject?
I'm still asking:
Who Do You Love?

I feel the same way as you..
In my case I like the creation of a character that is less wisecracking and more exotic, and illya fits that description to a tee....i think for me it is more the character... But the fact that David mcCallum is/was so gorgeous did not hurt one bit.
I went for the new illya too...I'd never heard of the guy who played him... Not bad though... I'd like to see more of him...
