Chris Marquette Message Board

Don't worry, I'll be sure to check it out.

This is awesome news for Chris. Now lets all hope that this project doesn't get cancelled on him.

Does anyone else not like Topher Grace? I think he is really wooden and not that great of an actor. If you ask me, they'd be better off putting Chris in the role of the young FBI agent but then again, I am kind of biased.

Hey, new to the boards here. My name is Mel and here are my answers. Enjoy.

What's the first thing your ever saw Chris in?
You know, I think I technically saw him in an episode of Law and Order first but I didn't know who he was then. I of course followed him more closely once I saw him in Joan of Arcadia.

What's your favorite thing he's done so far?
He will always be my favourite as Adam in Joan of Arcadia.

What's your favorite scene in that movie/show?
There are too many good ones to choose but the one scene that always sticks out in my mind that got me hooked on his character was in The Fire and the Wood when Joan enters his shed and he flips up his mask and has this look of surprise and nervousness on his face and then the way he looked at her during the whole scene where you could tell he really liked her. I loved him in that scene.

Who's your favorite Chris character and why?
Obviously my favourite is Adam Rove because he's a sweetie pie but I also really love him as Eli. He was really funny in The Girl Next Door. I still crack up thinking about the ending of that movie when a reporter questions Eli about not going to film school and his reply was "Shut the eff up! Next question."

Do you remember the first time you Googled Chris?  What site did you land on?
I wasn't big into the internet when I started watching Joan of Arcadia. I had no idea he would be in The Girl Next Door until I saw previews for it and recognized him, he was really the reason I wanted to see it. After that I started wondering what else he'd been in and looked him up on imdb. My obsession kind of got rekindled when I got an urge to see Joan of Arcadia again and downloaded it onto my computer. I now look out for projects he's doing and am trying to get my hands on the stuff that I missed out on.

What were you looking for when you found our website or how else did you stumble across it?
I was posting a message on imdb about how much I loved the episode 'Jump' of Joan of Arcadia during my re-watch of the show. Deb, kindly posted a link to this site and, well, here I am.

What role in what movie --- any movie --- past, present or potential would you love to see Chris play?
I got into reading these books by Dean Koontz, Odd Thomas. If they ever adapt the story to film, I could really picture Chris playing Odd. He has kind of that everyman look that Odd needs and the character has a lot of range that I think only Chris could pull off successfully, especially the end. Chris is awesome at emotional scenes.

Seen any Chris movies in a theatre?
So far, I've only had the pleasure of seeing The Girl Next Door in theatres. I really wanted to see Alpha Dog in theatres but they never released it here or if they did, it was quietly and really fast.

Own any Chris movies?
The Girl Next Door
Just Friends
Fanboys
Working on getting more. 

Have anything special recorded off TV?
I have Joan of Arcadia downloaded on my computer.

What do you like most about Chris?
I like his eyes. That may sound really weird but it's the first thing I notice about a person and he has really nice and really welcoming eyes. Also the emotions he can convey with his face is extraordinary.

If you could ask Chris one question, what would you ask?
'Will you go out with me?' j/k. Seriously, I don't really have a question more like a request: "Make more movies and tv shows, please!"

Do you have any of Chris's lines that you can quote off the top of your head?
'Unchallenged'
'I usually don't listen to what's going on unless I hear my name'
'Raise your hand if your brother's a homo!'
'Goddammit Matt! I swear to God if you don't fuck her, I'll kill myself! Matt! Please! Please, Matt! Fuck her for me! For me!'
'I could make a better sex ed film with my mom.'

Have you met Chris in person? If so, tell us about it.
Sadly, no.

If you could have him autograph one item or photo, what would you pick and why?
Probably my The Girl Next Door DVD. I loved him in that movie and he's really funny in it. He made the movie for me.

What would you want to see Chris doing next out of these?
a) a very dark and suspenseful thriller
b) a sitcom
c) a quirky and/or romantic comedy
d) a horror movie
e) a drama TV show
f) an action movie
g) a dramatic movie
h) a medical or cop show
i) a theater play
j) something else entirely (if so, what?)

Pretty much anything. My tops for him would be a dark and suspenseful thriller or a tv show either a drama or a comedy, not necessarily a sitcom though. I'd like to see him in a GOOD romantic comedy, there are so few these days, something along the lines of (500) Days of Summer.

I just heard and am really psyched for this movie. I hope it leads to bigger roles for Chris.
