*grin* Japan, baby. Japanese movie mags are DA BOMB, as the young people say. I used to have an enormous collection of them. (Do I feel really fucking stupid now for selling almost all of them? YES I DO. Happy now?) These pics came from the few I have left.
I spent a few years being a Picture Queen starting in '99, learning how to scan and process pics for maximum yummage. I used to buy Japanese mags here in LA and resell them on eBay. Made a KILLING. Lots of money, which financed my habit, of course. You have 1,600? I used to have over 3,000 pics of my guy. I was kinda famous for my pics in the Keanu fandom. Ran a pic-of-the-day Yahoo group. Got my technique down. Man, that was fun.
3 & 14. I don't keep every pic I see, just the best of. And I haven't been collecting as long as you. I'm jealous just thinking of the pics you have that I don't.

Oh, I wish I still had all that stuff. What I'm really pissed about is being too short-sighted to actually scan all the pictures I had. Christ, what a dolt I was.
Oh, oh, the whistle shot! I've never seen that one before! Where did you find it? Soo cute!
Wow wasn't he so lean and fresh faced and um, bendy, as a strippling boy? He might be gorgeous at every stage of his life but there is something sap-fresh about him here. Thanks for the pic feast!!
That one and the one with the tattoo and the last one with the quote are all from a tiny little photobook from Japan that I found on eBay years ago when I was spending outrageous amounts of money in the Keanu fandom.
He was very fresh and sweet back then. Yummy, pretty little man. Cool drink of water, he.
Oh, yes. He's growing into his own face, as Valentine Michael would say. Beauty as the measure of a person's life, not his DNA. I was watching him play Satan on PD last night, and was struck all over again by how freaking gorgeous he is these days. Still can't get over it. DAMN.
