    I'm gonna go watch it. You have any idea how many single women are going to be at the theater to go see that? I'm just gonna lift up my shirt and ask them if they wanna take "Magic Eduardo" home instead :laugh:

    Not! I agree 100% I don't need to fantasize about some actor that is probably a shallow idiot in real life. I'd rather spend time with my family. And it's a stupid morally bankrupt story to boot!

    Such an awesome first post!!!! :flowerforyou:

    That's my point, though. The sexy stuff in it isn't sexy to me at all. If there's a good story to watch, it's worth it. But male strippers turn my stomach, no matter what they look like. I don't like it at all.

    you know, that's funny... b/c Matt Bomer won the New Generation Arts and Activism Award at the Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards ceremony because of his work to combat HIV/AIDS. (source: http://marquee.blogs.cnn.com/2012/02/14/matt-bomer-comes-out-while-receiving-humanitarian-award/)

    Channing Tatum works with a LOT of animal charities; mostly b/c that's his wife's passion, admittedly, but he's still putting in HOURS as well as his name and face. (source is his own website: http://channingtatumunwrapped.com/category/personal/charity-work/ )

    Matthew McConaughey works with DOZENS of charities (listed here: http://www.looktothestars.org/celebrity/170-matthew-mcconaughey )... it's not ALL his pro-hemp activism.

    Joe Manganiello works for cystic fybrosis (source: http://www.trueblood-news.com/joe-manganiello-helps-bring-awareness-to-cystic-fibrosis ) as well as working a LOT for Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh (he's a PGH native)


    yeah... morally bankrupt... sure. just b/c someone is fit and pretty doesn't mean they aren't also a good person. shallow idiots indeed.

    i wouldn't waste money on it.

    Me neither, I don't like strip clubs and don't find muscly men attractive. I'm sure I'm the minority in this matter too. :/

    I don't find a man attractive simply because he has muscles. If he has those muscles from fighting fires or preparing for war, I'm there. But muscles for the sake of muscles does NOTHING for me! I'm never more turned on than when the boyfriend has on his fatigues and you can't see muscles through fatigues.

    Um ... anyway ...

    Not what I was saying in my OP. lol I don't care if others want to see it. I don't judge anyone for it. It's a movie and if people like it, then they like it. I'm just trying to decide if it's worth my time -- if there is a story to it that's worth watching (moral or not).

    Although, with my track record lately, I'll end up sitting next to someone with a small child and feel incredibly uncomfortable the whole time.

    And, also, my main point was the idiot on Rotten Tomatoes reviewing a movie he hasn't even seen!

    Bah. There's no plot, this is a silly, silly movie. It's incredibly shallow to watch a movie just to watch attractive actors.

    Now excuse me while I get back to my movie. It's called Scarlett Johannson and Christina Hendricks Wiggle.
    The plot? Scarlet Johansson and Christina Hendricks just stand around and wiggle. For two hours.

    :tongue:

    This! hehe

    I can't wait to see it. Yes, there is SO much more to a guy (or woman for that matter) than what they look like, but I'm ok with ogling a few fine specimens once in awhile. I mean come on...Matthew Mcconaughey.. shirtless?? I'll watch that any day (and maybe twice on Sunday!)

    Yep :)
