This may be a bit unsophisticated for some of you Hatrackers, but what do you think the sexiest movie role ever is? It could be male or female, live action or even animated if you wish.

My vote goes to Catherine Zeta Jones in "The Mask of Zorro"

HA!

Jane Seymour from Somewhere In Time, oh man she was gorgeous.

But as for sexiest role,
Rachel Weiss in either of The Mummy movies FTW. Smart, British sounding, completely feminine, and beautiful to boot. Ill kill Brenden Frasier for taking the role that should have been mine to play!

Did that last bit remind anyone else of Red Dwarf?

quote:
Lister: D'ya think Wilma's sexy?

Cat: Wilma Flintstone?

Lister: Maybe we've been alone in deep space too long, but every time I see that body, it drives me crazy. Is it me?

Cat: Well, I think in all probability, Wilma Flintstone is the most desirable woman that ever lived.

Lister: That's good. I thought I was going strange.

Cat: She's incredible!

Lister: What d'ya think of Betty?

Cat: Betty Rubble? Well, I would go with Betty... but I'd be thinking of Wilma.

Lister: This is crazy. Why are we talking about going to bed with Wilma Flintstone?

Cat: You're right. We're nuts. This is an insane conversation.

Lister: She'll never leave Fred, and we know it.

Yes you are Mad Martigan.
 
Posted by Paul Goldner (Member # 1910) on :
 
Mad Martigan and Doc Holiday are by far his two best rolls. I'd agree with you on Mad Martigan for sexiest male roll.

However, sexiest female roll? I really can't pick one [Frown] Denise Richards from Wild Things?

Not very well. Heard him on the cast recording of "The Boy From Oz" and I was less than impressed. He's not *bad* or anything, just...not exceptional.

For Male characters I agree.

I know, bad Stan. I'll go back to my corner now.

I concur!!
I kept getting hot flashes all throughout the film. [Blushing]

What really does it for me with her is that she is...er...uh...not big up top (I couldn't think of another way to say it an be tactfull). Jessica Alba, that is.

I thought Hannah was way hotter than Amy. That may have something to do with having seen her in an episode of Wonderfalls.
 
Posted by Paul Goldner (Member # 1910) on :
 
I had no problems with Hannah at all, but I also never got a chance to watch most of season four due to my work schedule, so I didn't see her develop as much as Amy.

Plus, Amy's bout with depression in season two very closely mirrored some problems I have had (though for different reasons) and so I connected very deeply with that character.

These women in Chicago were hot...
They were all like LEGS
And Jennifer Connely. She's dreamy. So dreamy. She has pretty eyes and was soooooooooo vunerable in this depressing movie I saw her in that was not Requiem for a Dream and I wanted to hug her because she was sad all through the movie. Poor her.
I also think Laura Linney was FINE in You can Count on me and in Kinsey even though she is older than me by a lot, but she reminds me of the Hawk my former Psych...
In fact, there are a lot of older women that are rather sexy for some reason, even though it seems like hollywood tries to put them out to pasture when they are over 35.
 
Posted by GForce (Member # 9584) on :
 
Stan, Jessica Alba would be my number two pick, by a narrow margin. In "Sin City" Nancy didn't get much screen time, but it left me begging for more. If she gets lots in 2, I might have to bump her up to numero uno.

Okay, not a movie role. But nonetheless one of the sexiest performances ever filmed.

Not all, but how true.
 
Posted by GForce (Member # 9584) on :
 
I'm not really sure what you mean by "plastic". If you're referring to "plastic surgery" then I guess you're right. That sort of thing doesn't really bother me though. If, on the other hand, you are referring to how natural they seem, I've got to (mostly) disagree. It's probably all a matter of opinion, but I think the art of acting has vastly improved since Ingrid Bergman's day. It's probably a combination of better acting techniques, better training, and better filming techniques, but I'd take a Charlize Theron performance over an Audrey Hepburn any day.

Edit: Excluding AeonFlux. But that wasn't her fault.
 
Posted by Olivet (Member # 1104) on :
 
Jonny Depp in a almost everything. I'm particularly partial to PotC, Sleepy Hollow and *forgive me* Once Upon a Time in Mexico.

Ewan McGregor in almost nothing (he appears that way frequently enough [Wink] ). I am particularly fond of Scarlet and Black, the scene where he's pounding on the door (offscreen) in The Pillow Book, and Shallow Grave (pinned to the floor with a kitchen knife, wearing huge grin because... I shouldn't give away the plot, but it's a great ending).

Women... I'll second Kathleen Turner in Body Heat (?) and Catherine Zeta-Jones in about anything.

I'm also really fond of Elizabeth Shue, though I don't know if I'd call her sexy.
 
Posted by Lisa (Member # 8384) on :
 
Ditto for Kate Beckinsale. And... atypical as this is for me, did any of you watch Witchblade? The first season, I mean... not the horrendous second season, which didn't really happen.

Anyway, Kim De Lury played a character named Conchobar. And I'm telling you, he was almost hot enough to make me straight.

So true. In terms of movie classics, the sexiests were, IMHO:
Greer Garson in Mrs. Miniver
Kim Novak in Vertigo and Bell, Book, and Candle; and
Merle Oberon, Jean Simmons, and Lauren Bacall in anything.

I could name at least a dozen more that could outshine todays starlets.

aww.. someone beat me to both Kate Bekensale in Underworld (but not so much underworld 2) AND Ewan McGregor in Moulan Rouge.

Wolverine is hot whatever he's in too. He can be dapper like in Kate and Leopold or rough 'n scruffy like in XMen. Yum.

Lisa: You're not crazy.
 
Posted by Samarkand (Member # 8379) on :
 
I don't normally like blonds, but Jude Law is hot . . . especially in Closer and I Heart Huckabees, because he's all insanely gorgeous and vulnerable and confused at the same time. For some reason I think that means he'd be really good in bed.

Possibly ought to talk to a shrink about that. Hmm.

Mmm, Jude Law.
 
Posted by Samarkand (Member # 8379) on :
 
Ohh - Johnny Depp is so unbelievably hot in Chocolat. I love how Juliette Binoche is all awkward around him (or as awkward as she gets). I would not have been able to talk if I had stumbled across him on a riverboat. Mmm. Guitar. That kiss. Mmm.

Paul Gross in Men with Brooms? But I really like him in Due South, except it's not a movie.
