Holy shit I guess I never knew what Donofrio looked like. Also v. hot, though I'd have to see him in action to be able to tell if he has anything on Ruffalo.

donofrio is def proto-ruffalo--that was a good connection but the problem is they are both dreamy.

donofrio has a certain insanity about him that ruffalo lacks imo

I first noticed Ruffalo in In the Cut, and I was bowled over. It was a good starting point - him as a cop.

I would definitely not call him "schlubby" (to me that means not just unkempt, but sloppy and defeated-looking - wearing sweatpants, unshaven, but with lint in your stubble) but maybe gritty.

chucklebutt way otm here, a brody is terrible & is just a human being with a face, what a show off

i am sure there is another actor who forms part of the ruffalo/donofrio/[someone else] holy trinity. i mean i guess you could put together a whole spectrum, w/james gandolfini at one end, but i'm sure there's another key player.

nb it is possible i am thinking of vince vaughn

he is just a guy with a big mournful face who appears in films but does not accurately demand that posters include the credit, ADRIEN BRODY'S FACE, which is really what should get written up as it's the thing eliciting all the sympathy & earning all the money. he has similarly refused to credit his face while moving on to playing other roles, like sharp, unimpressed & urbane wes anderson characters, flaunting his face, flaunting his big face around.

i just think he is bad is all, but gets mad props for visually resembling a great actor.

speaking of beatty, horseshoe did you see this

http://byliner.com/sara-davidson/stories/excerpt-joan

Warren Beatty was working the room, telling people he wanted to do some "gynecological detective work. I'm a combination gynecologist and detective." He took me aside and said he had a crush on Joan. "I want to see her fly."

I told him I'd arrived early and given Joan a massage. He looked puzzled. "A verbal massage? Is that what you mean?"

"A back massage."

His eyes quickened at the suggestion of touching her tiny, delicate back. He walked to where she was seated, pulled up a rattan Huey Newton chair facing her, opened his knees and pressed her knees between his. "This is it for me," he said. "This is all I want, right here. I'm happy."

Sitting down next to Joan, I asked, "For how long?"

Warren looked at his watch. "I don't have to be on the set until ten Monday morning." He looked straight in Joan's eyes and, with a smile that could melt an ice queen, pressed his knees tighter around hers.

She fidgeted. "This is not . . . "

She moved her hand in circles in the air. John was not around to complete her sentence so she said, with a shy smile, ". . . feasible."

Adrien Brody is one of the most attractive and Ryan Gosling (the ugly American Jérémie Renier) quite possibly the least attractive male person in this thread, in the opinion of this straight male Jewish person. I too prefer Kids are Alright Ruffalo to Lesser Ruffalos, though I've never seen the big deal about him - he's non-threatening, I guess, while retaining enough macho not to embarrass the opiner. I confess to thinking Vince Vaughn has a certain sort of (gross) charm, but I'll bet probably-not-great-himself-dude Jeremy Piven's probably the nicer Chicagoan.

"Bloat" = a well-fed dude who can wear it because he's rich. Most actors start out with (literally) big heads in the first place, fyi. Pretty unattractive word, btw, whichever gender is the recipient.

I won't call positing dudes' viewing dudes as "competition" (I'm competing with Mark Ruffalo?) one of my "least favorite things," but I don't think it's that major a factor in how I regard other dudes (I'm tempted to in turn call this view projection, based on the notion that this is how women view female celebrities, but I don't actually think that). I think it obvious that I am, to an extent, objectifying dudes from an aesthetic standpoint, the same way I might women. And to the extent I'm identifying or otherwise with a given celebrity, I'm obviously going to prefer someone who, well, I identify with, for that simple reason alone.

Anyway, "nonthreatening" meant nothing like what you suggest, though I suppose it does relate to temperament. Rather, it was sort of the cognate of suggesting that men are turned off by/afraid of "strong women."

Implicit in the background of all of this is that I'm a straight dude, so I recognize that I may well be missing some of the fundamentals in re what's attractive about a dude.

macarena of time (step hen faps), Tuesday, 27 December 2011 11:19 (twelve years ago) link

i've said before that photographs are only a tiny part of the story with ruff which is why his attractiveness varies from role to role, because he is a v physical actor and it is often about how he moves. or rather how his movement often suggests a certain tactility, hes weirdly physically present in a lot of his movies. its really jarring in a movie like 13 going on 30 which is very kinetic and cartoonish. i think a few people including myself have previously mentioned that he's almost uncomfortable in that movie. which makes calling him "nonthreatening" seem especially weird. i mean he's not "threatening" either (but then i think it would be creepy if any actors mere presence on the screen were inherently menacing - i think this kindof thinking has all sorts of connotations - like the weird rape fantasy notion that gay men only like the type of guys that bullied them in school etc, etc) i feel like there would be a strong overlap between people who like ruffalo and brando because early brando does the same thing (not that i'm trying to conflate the achievements of early brando with mark ruffalo) but there is that thing where he often feels like an actual person up on the screen surrounded by a movie.

" Gosling said he felt influenced by the work of James Dean and Gene Wilder, both of whom had an unusual romantic tenderness and a vulnerability that refused to take comfort or cover behind a facade of male self-assurance."

but this thread isn't really about ryan gosling or how nonthreatening ilxor type dudes find mark ruffalo.

judith, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 11:36 (twelve years ago) link

I always thought that "nonthreatening" was kind of code for "not sexual" bcuz lots of ppl are v v uncomfortable with the idea of 12, 13 y.o. girls having actual sexual desires. There's this real kind of paternalism behind it. Or maybe cleaning up to make acceptable to mothers of teenage girls? (this one is hard bcuz obv I have been a randy 12 y.o. girl but never been the mother of one or placed in the role of being forced to be guardian of any young girls' morality/purity/other bs terms etc.)

It's kind of the progression of Duran Duran from the Planet Earth + Girls On Film videos (overtly sexual) to Is There Something I Should Know where they were styled to be unsexual and therefore nonthreatening. The irony being, most teengirls I knew preferred them in the sexual incarnation.

Still don't get Ruffalo but we've already established my taste in lust objects = weird.

i'm p patchy w/early brando but this is def otm re: his gentler, picking-up-gloves side, & v true of ruffalo

There is no sneering involved. And I am hardly calling for the upholding of masculinity - I picked arguably the most feminine dude in the thread as arguably its most attractive, which is unsurprising for me. Rather, I'm saying something not unlike what you said yourself in other words - "boys 12 year old girls might be attracted to." Another way to put it might be "boys who are not adults," the role that of course made Ruffalo. Like I said, flip the genders and I could be pointing at men afraid of "strong women" (or, on your terms, "girls 12 year old boys might be attracted to"); I just think some women do it too. And again, I'm not saying that this is the only element of Ruffalo's (or Gosling's) attractive potential, but I think it may well be there for some or many women.

And again, the "threat" I'm referring to has nothing to do with physical or any other sort of violence or "menace," so I don't know why people keep talking about this.

It may be that I find your suaver (more peacockish?) male actors more attractive because the(y're more entertaining and) better to fantasize about being, all the way back to at least Bogart/Grant (the latter with a sense of humor about it, which Clooney has borrowed in copious quantities).

i've said before that photographs are only a tiny part of the story with ruff which is why his attractiveness varies from role to role, because he is a v physical actor and it is often about how he moves. or rather how his movement often suggests a certain tactility, hes weirdly physically present in a lot of his movies.

There's a great moment in YCCOM when he and Laura L. are on the back porch and he absent-mindedly swats at a fly. I love it.

lemme mansplain it for ya:

you are making a number of presumptions about what other people find attractive in Ruffalo. At the most basic level you are presuming to speak for them (which is - wait for it - patronizing!), and then you are also presuming that they hold a specific set of aesthetic standards (macho = bad/embarassing, a scale of attraction that is based on fear/weakness, etc.)

distinction without a difference here

I don't even know what the last clause is supposed to mean.

well, consider why someone's THREAT LEVEL would even factor into attractiveness, and what the implications of that are. That attraction is based on how likely someone is to hurt you, either physically or otherwise - are you afraid of them, are they stronger/more powerful than you, do they make you feel safe. Do you see how maybe possibly classic MAN STRONG/WOMAN WEAK gender stereotypes are bound up in this.

I see. So when discussing the nature of one person's interest in another, we must do so in a way that is accepting a priori of traditional gender roles rather than positing a theoretical if not actual relationship plane on which potential partners meet as ungendered equals. To do the latter would be sexist, and to explain it in the interests of being properly understood would be patronizing.

Yes, Topher is relatively "unthreatening," but that's not really a remarkable characteristic given his youth. It stands out more on a guy of Ruffalo's age. Perhaps his somewhat youthful spirit (to good effect in the lesbian movie) is a key part of his attraction, though?

i've said before that photographs are only a tiny part of the story with ruff which is why his attractiveness varies from role to role, because he is a v physical actor and it is often about how he moves. or rather how his movement often suggests a certain tactility, hes weirdly physically present in a lot of his movies. ....

this is a sort of italianate quality he possesses, heavily gestural but extremely refined and completely unhistrionic unlike yr famous i-talian uhmerican strassberg prototypes

similarly he is capable of a sotto voce that doesn't suggest deffered/suppressed explosion or a sort of schlocky wrought 'intensity', which is quite rare in hwood

I am going to respond on this thread to what you posted on the other thread, FT...

he is so ~unthreatening~ (i.e. womens desire for him is inauthentic)

Sorry, but that is not even close to what I'm saying. I regard the desire as quite authentic. I am very much saying (speculating, actually) that "unthreatening" (which you determined must refer to asexual boyishness when it in fact refers to a lack of adult ambition or perhaps even intelligence) is in fact what these women want.

women should fancy the kind of dudes that *I* fantasise about *being*" (because women shouldn't fancy who they fancy, they should fancy ... *me*)

Again, you completely misunderstand. My interest is much more in discovering the basis of the attraction rather than judging it, though I am doing a bit of the latter. While I do personally find more attractive the dudes I fantasize about being, as you put it, that's sort of a synergistic concept- I suppose I fantasize about being the dudes I find attractive (though it's probably more accurate to say that I am simply entertained watching them). Either way, I am not especially like those dudes, hence, wait for it, the fantasy. If I'm saying that someone should fantasize about the people who I find attractive, I'm simply suggesting that they should agree with me as I would to anyone of any gender about any object of aesthetic appreciation, such as a great or shitty band.

Sorry if that's too much "mansplaining" for you to handle.

"unthreatening" (which you determined must refer to asexual boyishness when it in fact refers to a lack of adult ambition or perhaps even intelligence)

what I was getting at is that you imply that it's LESS insulting to suggest women are attracted to "a lack of adult ambition or perhaps even intelligence" than to suggest that they are attracted to "asexual boyishness" when in fact both suggestions are patronizing and insulting by their very nature.

I implied no such thing, either about all women, or the insult level. I was referring only to a possible reason (among others I've listed in the thread) that some women who find Mark Ruffalo attractive might do so, and wished to be understood properly as to the precision of that reason, when others decided my words meant something else, and that that something else was the basis for being patronizing and/or insulting.

he's got a looseness that borders on rakishness. an apparent carelessness, he can seem almost unwatched, but he rubs his eyes, yawns, draws attention to himself. in films he just paws at everything around him.

the more this "threatening" word gets retracted from any commonly understood definition of what it usually means, the more obvious it is that this is some very specific bone being picked and has no actual significance in terms of actually describing anything real.

I see. Because we are victims of our biology and environment and can not transcend them, even for purposes of academic argument, we need a form of affirmative action in favor of validating womens' speech and desire such that it is unacceptable at this point to suggest that some women might act in the same fashion as some men (which fashion we have heretofore regarded as sexist)?

a general girls&gays ws thread might be in order. i think its important to remember the main topic of general affirmation in this thread. mark ruffalo is attractive.

judith, Tuesday, 27 December 2011 23:46 (twelve years ago) link

can you work thru this idea you have of the 'unambitious' even 'unintelligent' becoming desire objects

iyo is this functionally pathological or is it merely an undesirable desiring?

I don't believe I called it undesirable. And I'm positing "unambitious" or "unintelligent" only relatively to the desirer. Perhaps that is in fact a (socially) desirable desire at this particular point in history - women wishing to be more successful than their partners.

by attractive I assume you mean lacking in adult ambition or perhaps even intelligence

also gabbneb, i believe that you meant unthreatening in the (nonsensical) way you claim, but that's not how it's usually used when describing men, and in your initial post "unthreatening" was certainly legible in the usual sense of "asexual" or "someone 12-year old girls would like because they don't know anything about anything."

Fair enough. I'd like to think that ILX is free of that sort of thing.

and in your initial post "unthreatening" was certainly legible in the usual sense of "asexual" or "someone 12-year old girls would like because they don't know anything about anything."

Fair enough, again, but I explicated it not too many posts later (and had adverted to a genderless view in the original post).

maybe you and i should just get our own thread, but to me saying that mark ruffalo is unthreatening in comparison to dudes who are more like the dude version of "strong women" is not genderless! how we characterize "strong women" and "threatening men" (lol) is all about characteristics that we think of as typically masculine.

And I think it's clear that I don't, or at least am speaking academically as if they are not. Perhaps because I was raised by equally successful parents (who admittedly are not free of gender roles)?

i don't think it is in any way possible to imagine such a space in which gender is abolished. and to do so would be to imagine a completely different context for desire from the one we are stuck in. what you are trying to do is p much just as dumb as what you are actually doing.

This is an ongoing problem, when some people are "speaking academically" from some abstract "intellectual" position and others of us are speaking from the flesh and bone experiences of our actual lives. And I'm just sick of this privileging of the former over the latter like it just doesn't ~exist~ or can be hand-waved away.

What am I doing/trying to do? If I were to speak for myself, I'd say that I'm expressing an ideal of a relationship of equals, whatever the gender, one which I think is often roughly descriptive of reality and will become increasingly moreso. Obviously, there is no true and complete equality between any two individuals, and you could argue that most relationships are founded upon one or more forms of inequality, perhaps shifting back and forth between the participants, but I think it's a useful notion, both descriptively and prescriptively.

I would not and did not claim to be speaking about your life. Why do you insist upon my inability to speak about others' and my own because it does not match yours?

illegal crew member (C.K. Dexter Holland), Wednesday, 28 December 2011 00:30 (twelve years ago) link

well then surely "threatening" is ,in this (irrelevant) formulation, a positive attribute

judith, Wednesday, 28 December 2011 00:31 (twelve years ago) link

It's like trying to talk to someone who insists that the sky is green. And you know, maybe he is actually colour blind? But no matter how many times ppl explain to him "it's commonly agreed that the sky is the colour called blue" he still just goes on insisting that it's green.

I really admire horseshoe and shakey mo for being able to keep being reasonable for do long.

My interest is much more in discovering the basis of the attraction rather than judging it,

If a person wants to know the answer to a thing perhaps they could think about asking the question insteading of providing an answer themselves

I guess the reason you are walking through this park is.....because shh no don't tell me I got this one...its because you are subconsciously expressing your secret desire to own....a cocker spaniel!? How about that! I bet you didn't even realize!
