Tom Welling is beautiful in that way that Angelina Jolie is beautiful: sort of pushing past human into alien territory.

again, with roslyn it's a personality issue - when she's not presidented up, she's kind of beautiful and flowly. oh oh, i know - STRIKING

Handome as applied to women requires a certain statue/gravitas/firmness of feature, I think? (Firmness as in...resolve/confidence, not as in lack of wrinkles/sagging).

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:48 (seventeen years ago) link

oo! oo! nother pretty man in a western = Billy Zane(before he lost all his hair) in Tombstone

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:49 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, exactly, Laurel. Frances McDormand, too, maybe.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Err, stature. (XXXXP)

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:50 (seventeen years ago) link

rugged/handsome = Caesar
pretty boy = Brutus
sexy = Titus Pullo
hot = Lucius Vorenus
cute = Mark Antony
pretty = Octavian

That 70s Show is still the hottest cast on TV, and Laura Prepon is like the 4th hottest one.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:52 (seventeen years ago) link

y'know, i think Cillian Murphy might be the male equivalent to Christina Ricci, as far as these attractiveness labels go

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:52 (seventeen years ago) link

because he kind of looks like an alien? he's prettier than Ricci, I think.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:53 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Cillian had the weird mix of pretty boy/Thunderbird-plastic in the batman flick

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

Laura Prepon was #1 TV hottie until she went blonde during the seasons I didn't watch.

― milo (milo), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:54 (seventeen years ago) link

even though there's a 70% chance she's a Scientologist.

― milo (milo), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:55 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, Mila Kunis is about the most conventionally "hot" girl that I find compelling, probably because she has a pretty high cute/neotenous element. Definitely a straight-up sexual, not romantic or protective, attraction there.

The patron saint of "hot, but not handsome or particularly cute" (though the big eyes do help):

xpost you're welcome, isn't it a great word?

― lurker #2421 (lurker #2421.1), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:57 (seventeen years ago) link

ew. that is crazy talk. Jeff Goldblum is gross.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:57 (seventeen years ago) link

I find the woman in this current British TV ad for Baxter's soup spellbindingly pretty. She has a delicious voice too.

― Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Seriously, though, That 70s Show = small handsome boyish dude (Topher Grace), rosy-cheeked, floppy-haired pretty-boy (Ashton Kutcher), and dark-haired saucer-eyed cute/sassy girl (Mila Kunis). All my types on one show. Prepon is totally expendable.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 21:58 (seventeen years ago) link

(NB of course not everyone shares the Goldblum-love, but for some he's the epitome)

xpost like I said.

Ha, I know! I cracked open the Webster's on my desk.

haha what is that? i have internet

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:01 (seventeen years ago) link

the longish hair really does a lot to help cillian murphy not seem so weird/scary but we know the truth

in fact, that kind of hair does a lot for most people/men - creates approachable cuteness factor - deceptive

xpost haha I KNOW

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:02 (seventeen years ago) link

i know what a good word for that kind of hair is

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:03 (seventeen years ago) link

(it's not Jeff Goldblum's face that's gross, just his unctuous being).

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:05 (seventeen years ago) link

what is Tom Hanks??

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:06 (seventeen years ago) link

ack jeff goldblum no

xpost Tom Hanks is horrible

― Allyzay is cool: with Blue n White, with Eli Manning, with NY Giants (Allyzay Ei, Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:06 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, and longish hair only served to make him more horrible! i cannot deal with his nose. i wish he would go back to comedy.

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:08 (seventeen years ago) link

because comedy really does make weird-looking men more attractive, i think

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:09 (seventeen years ago) link

not that attractiveness is the goal for him, or anyone. or maybe it is.

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:09 (seventeen years ago) link

not that attractiveness is the goal for him, or anyone. or maybe it is.

Probably on most people's Top 5, I'd wager.

― lurker #2421 (lurker #2421.1), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:11 (seventeen years ago) link

yeah, true, v true

also in comedy-making-people-more-attractive zone:
jack black - seriously now, dude is starring opposite kate winslet, hottest beautiful woman in the world, probably?
owen wilson
vince vaugn
jerry seinfeld (?)
chris rock

Sorry, what did you say? I couldn't hear you over the hair dryer. (XP)

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:15 (seventeen years ago) link

Jerry Seinfeld had the quote(or at least, Conan attributed it to him) that nobody who thinks that they're good-looking is funny.

― kingfish in absentia (kingfish), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:17 (seventeen years ago) link

that's pretty otm

― impermanent rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:18 (seventeen years ago) link

Not true! Baltar! In season 1, at least. He is funny despite himself, though.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:19 (seventeen years ago) link

Is Joan Cusack handsome?

― milo (milo), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:20 (seventeen years ago) link

no. Allison Janney is handsome.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:20 (seventeen years ago) link

handsome/rugged = Josh Homme or mebbe Hugh Laurie?
pretty boy = Adrian Brody (almost typed Adrian Belew, ack!)
sexy = ...all I can think of is my fiance
hot = Buster Keaton
cute = Bud Cort back in the day

― Abbott (Abbott), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:26 (seventeen years ago) link

I think the Sarah Silverman fetish that I don't understand has the comedy madness factor.

― Abbott (Abbott), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:27 (seventeen years ago) link

she's much hotter than she is funny. but I have the hate.

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:28 (seventeen years ago) link

Actually I think SS is beautiful! So haughty...until mouth opens.

― Laurel (Laurel), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:28 (seventeen years ago) link

She's gorgeous and the first time I ever saw her was on 'Greg the Bunny' where she wasn't particularly funny. She is most decidedly not cute, however.

― Michael White (Miguelito), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:30 (seventeen years ago) link

How would you characterize Laurie Anderson? There's something "cute" about her -- short spiky hair, moon face, dimples, playfulness -- and she can definitely take on an angelic mien:

http://www.maths.lth.se/matematiklu/personal/apas/laurie/laurie1.gif

But she's also got those biceps and a piercing stare, which gives her a certain fierceness:

http://estiej.webpark.pl/images/laurie_anderson.jpg

Then again, sometimes she just looks like Tim Robbins:

http://c250.columbia.edu/Images/c250_celebrates/remarkable_columbians/bio_images_big/laurie-anderson-2.jpg

At any rate, I find her immensely compelling.

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:31 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeesh, really? I don't find her very attractive at all, certainly not on a purely physical basis. Way too horsey for my taste.

Laurie Anderson's got something, but not my thing.

― lurker #2421 (lurker #2421.1), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

omg, Tim Robbins! Tim Robbins is where cute and hot intersect!

― horseshoe (horseshoe), Thursday, 7 December 2006 22:32 (seventeen years ago) link

Thing is, it has to do with whether the guy(we'll use guys here) thinks he's hot shit or not, not whether he actually is or not.

Attractive people don't need to develop attractive personalities, to put it another way.
