How tall is Chris?

notsofairytale · 13 Jan 08 :: 23:34

Haha. *shakeshead*

shoothoops, don't worry about it. My friend was 5'-ish in jr. high and now she's 5'6. She did most of her growing our sophomore year, I believe.

So I went to a party yesterday and I was the shortest one. Go figure! It made me think of this thread, esp. since my height was mentioned by several folks. I thought everyone outgrew "picking on Sophea's height," but I guess not. The good thing about being short, if you don't mind the attention, is that people notice you easily. What I like about being short is that I get hidden from everyone else, hah. I know, quite the contradiction.

Hehe, you guys make me feel tall, for like the first time in my life. I'm 5"1, I kinda like my size though, well like anyone, you just get used to your height I guess. Anyway I always liked the fact that pretty much every guy is taller than me, not that there's necessarily anything wrong with the guy being shorter, but I do prefer them to be taller than me, but given my height, that's not exactly saying much.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 19 Jan 08 :: 09:58

That's good that your happy with your height, Susanna. That's the way it should be for everyone! ; )

domesticelefant · 19 Jan 08 :: 11:17

I still think I am too small. My neighbour's granddaughter is 10 years younger than me, but she's like almost one head taller than me! I feel inadequate in front of her! LOL

shoothoops22 · 19 Jan 08 :: 17:16

I know a third grader who is taller than me

Awwww.

Susanna · 20 Jan 08 :: 04:49

Hey shoothoops, seriously, you are not the only one. I'm in my seventh form/ last year of high school this year and if I walk in a crowd of third formers I'm like average height. And there ain't no way I'm growing anymore, you probably will, but even still, you just get used to it, trust me, and it becomes a non-issue.

BiggestChrisMarquetteFan · 20 Jan 08 :: 09:05

I agree Susanna. I don't even care about height anymore, even my own.

notsofairytale · 26 Jan 08 :: 21:29

Yep. There will be those that make your height greater than it is, but they're losers anyway ;P

Yup. Most people are losers anyway. :devil:

I wonder if his height affects the kinds of roles he gets. I know he's still young, but I wonder if it annoys him to play high school/teen roles.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 01 Jul 08 :: 04:03

He's pretty much done with that now, with the exception of playing a 19-year-old in Kid Cannabis. He's playing older than himself in Fanboys. He shot it when he was 22, but Linus is supposed to be 25. He did tell us that he wants to go older and darker in his roles.

TeeJay · 01 Jul 08 :: 09:07

Also, you'd be amazed at how tall they can make you look on camera. Judging from before I met Chris, I thought he was gonna be taller.

Most actors are on the not-so-tall side. Doesn't really matter much in Hollywood.

hidethestars · 02 Jul 08 :: 05:11

Good point. I guess I should've gone into film. I could have made the world believe I'm 5'9"!

I don't know why, but 25 seems so adorable to me. haha. I really hope that Fanboys opens up great roles for him. I don't see him as a romantic comedy actor, but it'd be great if he'd get something Amelie-ish. Magical, you know? /dork.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 02 Jul 08 :: 05:41

You've seen JoA. He can do romantic comedy. Adam was romantic and comedic. In fact, I dare say Chris will do a big screen romantic comedy, as soon as the right one comes along.

hidethestars · 02 Jul 08 :: 06:05

XD True! I never thought of JoA as romantic comedy. I'm such a snob that the words are almost dirty to me. I've become allergic to Kate Hudson and Matthew Macccoadsofhanhay.

TheCentralScrutinizer · 02 Jul 08 :: 15:27

Heh. I don't blame you. I went on a bit of a diatribe not so very long ago about the dismal state of the rom com these days.

CappuGirl · 04 Oct 08 :: 16:51

I've been 5'2 since I was 12. That's 14 years of my life already. So no hopes for growing anymore. My kids are gonna out-grow me one day. It's a fact. Freaks me out. I was just about to die when my little brothers out-grew me. They are over 6' now all grown up. The men in my mom's family have always been giants.

I've always liked guys that are somewhere between 5'2 - 5'8. I hate tall people. So nice talking to their belly button!

I know how you feel. I'm only 4'10. Only I always seem to like taller guys

shoothoops22 · 05 Oct 08 :: 05:13

I grew im now 4'11''

herrommance · 08 May 09 :: 02:22

I am 5'4"
and think I will forever be unfortunately

domesticelefant · 09 May 09 :: 10:58

I'm 5'4" too. It's not that bad.

Warbee · 09 May 09 :: 11:55

Well i am 5'5" and relatively average in height. (I actually didnt know my height in feet and inches i had to convert it to get a better idea) So thats only 3 inches shorter than Chris. Sounds pretty good to me

TheFutureMrsEliBrooks · 11 Sep 09 :: 15:45

I'm 5' 5'... yeah that is average... but wow hes three inches taller than me. I had a feeling there was no way he was over the 6 foot marker. I can just tell by his stance and how long his legs are compared to the rest of him. Glad we know the answer now cuz I couldn't find that info ANYWHERE.

On that note: does anyone know the TRUE actual color of his eyes? Sometimes they look brown... other times brown and hazel mixed... then in certain scenes they look pitch black... I'm going with chocolate brown though with little mixed in lighter brown colors... seems his eyes are purely brown in most of the pictures I have seen him in.

FUN FACT: Did you know that blue eyes and brown eyes are said to be the number one color of eyes people melt over when they look into them? Supposedly a large percent of people say they feel safer with someone with blue or brown eyes because it represents and seems to radiate innocence and a warm tenderness from them.... I can definitely say this is true about Chris heheheh

~Mrs.Brooks - Loves his eyes... loves his EVERYTHING~ :embarrassed:
