If I had lips like Keira Knightley, I would do nothing in the world but admire myself.
Buffy 4: Grr. Arrgh.
This is where we talk about Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No spoilers though?if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. This thread is NO LONGER NAFDA. Please don't discuss current Angel events here.
I'm with you Plei. I can see he's supposed to be pretty, but he does nothing for me.
On the distaff side, I think Emmanuelle Beaurt may be a contestant for "too pretty for this mortal coil." Jaclyn Smith in her Charlie's Angels days would also be a contender.
Welling's jawling bugs me. It's weird, and kind of lumpy-square.
To me, he's just not real. Someone said they needed an actor to play a young Superman, and someone drew him, and then breathed life into him. That's why the exaggerated manly jaw. Still the prettiest. Dare I say...prettier than Legolas?
Catherine Deneuve. Still.

Yes, certainly.

It's the lumpy that bugs me. We have news anchors here with squarer, more manly jaws (flamingly gay news anchors, in point of fact, with total Mary Sue names) than Welling, and the manly jaw doesn't bug. It's that the outline on his is wonky. It's off, and displeasing to the eye.
My iMac's destop pic at the moment is Ian McKlellan and Dom Monighan (prob. spelled that wrong) at a rugby game - Dom's got a little leaf painted on his cheek and these to-die-for cool sunglasses on. Dom is not pretty. Dom is sexy as hell. Hobbit or no. Ian is not pretty or sexy, but extremely handsome and kind-looking. It's nice that there are so many flavors of fun-to-look-at.
Catherine Deneuve. Still.
She is truly and literally beautiful. I don't think anyone is getting my definition of pretty (which really, look it up, TW is next to it in the dictionary).
Um... I wonder if I can use examples instead of definitions.
Robert Redford=pretty Paul Newman=beautiful
Farah Fawcett (in her hay day)=pretty Sophia Lauren=beautiful
Nah, they're not capturing what is in my head. Never mind.
eta...
Ooh, I think tina gets it, and possibly Plei.
That guy on Birds of Prey? Pretty.
AD? More beautiful than pretty.
CC? Pretty.
I didn't watch BoP, but yeah. Beauty has a (visual) depth that pretty doesn't, maybe? I do think Jaclyn Smith straddles the line between pretty and beautiful most successfully.
CC managed to cross it, in the beginning of The Wish, when she was in that spectacular leather outfit--but it wasn't the outfit. It was either her make up, or (maybe even) her acting. She did a great job betraying her pain with her face, and I think that helped.
