Title: HOW COULD THEY?!!
Post by: J.R. on November 20, 2002, 08:51:43 PM
People magazine, for whom I had no respect to begin with, has named Ben "Hambone" Affleck the sexiest man alive. I'm going to start praying and awaitng the arrival of the four horsemen now.

Those are  just celebrity popularity contests, don't let it bother you.

Like back in the '80s when Mick Mars would win "Guitarist Of The Year" from Circus magazine...Huh?!?!

But hey Afleck was the bomb in Phantoms...

Don't think that justifies it, but look on the right side at least it wasn't Carrot Top
Title: The real reason why they did this
Post by: Chris K. on November 20, 2002, 10:55:01 PM
I think we all know the reason why People Magazine place Ben Affleck as "Sexiest Man Alive" is because of all that hype of him marrying J "Big Ass" Lo. It really makes one wonder who really cares abut this marrage (it's really nothing special to begin with as we all have seen big stars get married, get a divorce, and get married again-it's like a nature show; the cycle of celebrity-evolution continues), especially when you can consider the marrage won't last 2 to 3 years.

Ben Affleck is pretty much the "Flavor of the Month." By the time people realize he was in such crap like PEARL HARBOR, the month will be up and his 15 minutes of fame will be gone. No worries here, but I just can't believe that people would actually buy Affleck as "Sexiest Man Alive"! Who do they think they are kidding here? Whatever.

In these days you can be the "sexiest man alive" and not technically be a man to begin with.

This national sport of Carrot Top bashing needs to stop; it was never funny. He's more famous for being reviled than for his act. It's like picking on the slow kid.

I for one don't feel qualified to comment on who is the sexiest man alive.  That should be up to the ladies and the gay men.  If they think Affleck, then who's to argue?

I am not qualified to comment on who is the sexiest man alive either. In fact, I really don't care that much. But my argument is that People picked a guy who is "Flavor of the Month". He's getting married to J Lo, all of a sudden he's the "Sexiest Man Alive". Is this really anything new? No, not really so I guess my argument is really nothing. Oh well.

Andrew? Are you on crack? Plus we all know that Josh Hartnett is the sexiest man alive. And No, I am not gay, just comfortable to admit it. Plus, who would you vote for sexiest woman? Mine would go to Britney Spears or Kerri Wuhrer.

I'm no fan of the fellas, but there are definitely sexier men out there than Affleck.
Because I don't think stupidity is an attractive quality and he has that in spades.

Sexiest woman? Probably Shakira. Those hips...so hypnotic...(Homer Simpson-style drooling)...

My wife says Affleck makes her sick.  Another reason I'll keep her.

And yes, Shakira's an EXCELLENT choice for sexiest woman -- not only that hip action, but actually talented (who'd'a thunk it?)....

You're not too familiar with guitar tablature, or Metallica songs, eh Evan?

Yeah, I figured out it was a tab. I've memorized a few of Lars' drum tabs.

I agree! :)
Title: Ben Affleck
Post by: Scottie on November 22, 2002, 10:56:36 PM
I thought Affleck did a damn decent job in some movies, like Mallrats and Dogma. He was also in the less quality, but equally important to his career Good Will Hunting. And, likewise, he made some questionable film choices over the years, but hey, we can all be forgiven. Though people do dumb things like go and marry stars to become more of a star *Jennifer Lopez* (I refuse to show her any pop-artist respect she wants, so I won't call her "J- Lo") there might be things in the past, or things to come in the future that will make them redeemable. Who knows? I can't predict the future. If I could, I'd have already told Michael Jackson to give it a rest, or kicked in the heads of some current network TV executives for even thinking of airing the sitcoms they do. Ben Affleck may even go and stumble onto a project that turns out to be the next 'Rainman,' I don't know. But I DO know that life in the media's eye is quick, short lived, brutal, and a good lesson of what not to do again.

No offense, JR, but Lars' drum tabs? I can't play drums worth s**t and I can play some Ulrich beats...

Still...not AC/DC simple...

Post by: J.R. on November 23, 2002, 07:03:05 PM
I said I'd memorized them, didn't I? It didn't take long to figure out they're the same beats that have been around for decades.
