Just about every girl I've spoken to who've seen this movie totally digg Peace. To me he's nothing but a bad boy with a moody attitude who tries to look cool by dressing in black leather. IMO, girls who marry bad boys will ALWAYS regret it later as they get beaten up and abused by them later in life. That has always happened.
His father was a supervillian, so he's got issues, but he helped and gave advice to layla when the good guy, will, had stood her up. Bad boy was an act, a defensive device that fell away by the end of the movie.
The clothes, the face, the hair, his voice, and his heated temper = delicious. Anyways, who said anything about marriage? Girls like to have a lil' fun. I ended up watching it just for him. haha
Joey? Are you a guy? Because if you are, then it's only normal that you wouldn't find someone like him attractive. If you did, then there maybe something you'd like to share with the class. ;p
Can you imagine that boy as a quiet, misunderstood hothead in school... but with the girl he loves, he's a total teddybear? not to mention, of course, with "the moves" *wink* I'm such a romantic...sorta
Dean: What's up with you? Sam:...I lost my shoe...
"All the girls love Warren" not just because he's "totally hot!" but because he shows himself to have a caring side. Yes, it's an evolutionary trait to like "bad boys": it's an instinctual urge to make sure your own children (or, at least, your son) is strong (vicious) enough to survive. But this being a Disney movie, they couldn't make him a straight-out jerk; they had to show that he was nice under the broody exterior. & yes, this movie does help compound the stereotype that leads dumber women to pick nasty guys withOUT those redeeming qualities, but dumb people will be dumb no matter what.
Those who study history are doomed to watch others repeat it.
Warren peace: Super hot, funnily enough it was his name that made him stand out being a very clever play on a book 'War and Peace'. On a superficial note: That boy is fine, I mean his power was 'FIRE' for crying out loud.hotness.
Then how come so many chicks end up with "bad boys" that turn out to beat the crap out of them?
Seems to me "bad boys" often turn into "bad men".
What most women really want is somebody with the qualities of a "bad boy" but who's a big softy on the inside they can coo over, like 'sensitive' guys. A-la Warren Peace in the movie.
I don't think it was all about Warren Peace's character. Did you ever think that perhaps most women find the actor, Steven Strait, appealing in more than just a physical sense?
I will admit that, as a young woman, I find Steven to be very attractive, but, having seen some of this other films, he's a pretty good actor that isn't paid a lot of attention to.
That being said, there's just something alluring about Warren, whether it be his reclusive demeanor or his sprung-from-a-bad-past vibe.
Whatever it is, so what if it's appealing? What's it matter to you?
Because, I counsel girls and women that get the crap beat out of them every time from guys they think are like that, guys with a "reclusive demeanor or his sprung-from-a-bad-past vibe". It's a fantasy, and one that persists in the female mind. I like leather jackets as much as the next guy, but come on ladies, wake up and smell the spousal abuse.
well, my best friend has the bad boy thing down pat, and its not even an act, he is just not very social, likes his metallica and the friends that he's got, he is also incredibly attractive, yet despite his standoffish behaviour his bed is rarely empty but girls use him as much as he is enjoying the attnetion and yet he has never so much as lifted his hand to anyone and he treats people with respect, he may not like them but he is not an ass about it.
Not all bad boys end up beating their partners up.
If at first you don't succeed...so much for skydiving.
First of all Charlie you wouldn't understand because you are a guy. And second of all its a movie just a kids movie. Third, was Warren mean or abusive towards Layla, the girl he likes, no. So he would never beat up his wife/gf/etc.
Baby You'll Be My Corona and Lime. And I Will Be Your Main Squeeze
Sky High being a kids movie aside, I think everyone knows why all the girls love Warren Peace.
#1: Its Steven Strait; Anyone who's seen The Covenant, 10,000 B.C., or read the incredibly shallow Twilight series, thinks he God's gift to women and wanted him to be Jacob Black.
#2: Seriously, he has defined model looks and Steven Strait is a [former] model.
And #3:, Its like everyone else had said; Warren Peace is a "Bad Boy". The anti-social, unkempt appearance, long hair, and broodish behavior alone tends attract female population like a herd of cows to a wide open field. Even I was attracted to his character, but I never found Strait to be appealing ("OMG, SO HOT!") the in the least. [HORMONES, man.] That said, I can see why all the [fan]girls gravitated toward him. I liked his character more than Will Stronghold (I had thing for his goober of a father instead) and wished Warren had ended up Layla instead of Will. Physical appearances aside, those two seemed more believable a couple.
"We only said good-bye with words, I died a hundred times. You go back to her and I go back to..."
i don't like bad boys. Good guys all the way! Bad guys, moody guys are extremely off-putting because they have no charm or wisdom and lack what a real man should be.
Good guys rule!
