Thanks Carmen! And I hope their happiness lasts. Of course like any other couple they could split up but if that happens it wouldn't be the end of the world, and it wouldn't negate their relationship while it lasted. But they look well suited and very happy together so for their sake I hope they make it last!

I hope it lasts too! I hope it lasts for a long long long long time, but I can't control their lives. They could break up one day/or not, but it's not up to us. I'm enjoying his happiness now, I mean, I'm happy for him and for her too, I like her so it's obvious I like them as a couple. If he was with an actress I don't like it would be obviously different but I'd accept it anyway, it's not up to me the decision of whom he should date!
Btw fingers crossed for Michael and Alicia, they look super cute together. [emoji7]

At the risk of repeating myself, I couldn't careless who doubts, dislikes, disbelieves who Fassbender is in a relationship with. I don't like when, as in the past, people are just nasty and vulgar about another human just because of who they may or may not be dating. If anyone cares to look back over old posts they may note that the negativity always starts as soon as a positive Fassbender/Vikander post appears. Why should I have to defend a picture I like or a comment I've made because I believe they are in a relationship. I don't question anyone for saying the opposite. I will stand up when a person is being ripped because it's not necessary. If someone doesn't feel there are enough posts to their liking on here then there is a simple solution...post something yourself that you do like. This is my free time and I post stuff I like to see. If you don't like it move on and ignore it. When TLBO is done I'm sure the posts about it will recede somewhat. If in the sad event of Fassbender splitting with Vikander (sad because it means someone is unhappy) then I'm sure as soon as he takes up with someone new, then those posts will recede too. But for right now I'm happy to see him happy, I'm gassed about TLBO coming out and I'm enjoying all the positive speculation about the future of this couple.

With all due respect I do think that the more frequent posters here come across as pretty much (not entirely) liking MF because he is dating AV. And I think it's completely understandable that it could annoy other fans. That is probably also why there are so many people who view this thread yet so few who comment.

I know others might not agree with this but I felt it needed to be said.

Okay, back to lurking.

Sure, I'll own to this. I've always thought he was a brilliant actor but as a person some things about him did skeeve me out a little (sorry Leonardo DiCaprio but grown men with Peter Pan complexes are not cute, they're creepy). But I'm a huge fan of her and I hoped she wouldn't date someone for two years who wasn't worth it. So I relaxed my opinion, watched some of his interviews, gave him another shot, and found him to be much more impressive than I initially thought.

My point is, can I not call myself a fan because I took a circuitous route instead of immediate adoration? Are there better fans than others, and who makes that call? I like him because he's dating her, but I still like him. So I post in his thread. Why are people who disagree lurking instead of posting? It's your thread too! Our opinions are all valid. We're all fans. IMO, anyway.

100% agree. The words used to describe their relationship make me cringe. Most days I view but do not comment just because I have been thoroughly creeped out by some posts. Although I would like to say thanks to carmencrem for all the updated posted here about Michael.

IA. I'm not his fan because of her, and I'm not fan of hers because of him. I got to know them in two different periods, before they got together but I started following properly Alicia 2 years ago when I saw son of a gun. I was excited when I read she was going to be in a movie with Michael, I read the book and so on...

Btw there are different fans, different ways to be fans and I kinda respect any kind of fan, as long as they are respectful to me.
You're not "inferior" because you like him "because of her", cos if you didn't like him you wouldn't bother being here and posting here.
I got to know Reese Witherspoon cause she was Jake Gyllenhaal's girl and Michelle Williams cause she was with Heath Ledger and now Michelle is one of my favourite actresses. I don't think I'm a B-list fan just because I knew her thanks to him. ;)

Very refreshing post! I totally agree everyone should feel free to post. I have often had to skim through stuff totally at odds with my values but I'm made of hardy stuff!
I'm pleased you gave Michael another chance on the strength of him being Alicia's partner! He's a very fine actor and intelligent man with many good qualities. IMO much of the skeevy stuff associated with him was less reality and more to do with Internet chatter from certain quarters who appear to want him to be some kind of debauched rake! But leaving that aside his lifestyle is relatively normal, much like most other people's. [emoji2]

Can't wait for my death, there in Venice. I can't believe it.. -14 days! I will never survive. [emoji7][emoji91][emoji91][emoji91][emoji91][emoji91]

I'd like very much to be able to say 2 words to him/her. There'll be so many people... So many...

Are you going? Have fun!
Drink a lot of Bellini and let us know if you get chased by " producers" & " directors" .
