Stop trying to make women think Seth Rogen is attractive


He's disgusting. No offense to Melissa McCarthy, but he's the male equivalent of her character in Bridesmaids - in everything he's done, even after he lost a bulk of the weight. But he gets to fool around with Katherine Heigl and Elizabeth Banks, among others? This is such an affront to both of them, and to average looking men and women everywhere. Judd Apatow decided that Rogen is funny, that's fine, but at least cast someone who is closer to his physical equal opposite him in this type of movie. Like maybe Shelly Duvall or Kathy Bates.

Have you ever stopped to think about why they perhaps chose someone like Seth Rogen for the role? Maybe it is because he is supposed to exactly not look like George Clooney or who ever you wanna compare him to. Also if you think that the first matter in falling in love is the look (not saying it does not matter at all), then I feel sorry for your love life. It might be that I am the only one although I doubt it, but I think love in movies is much more beautiful, when it seems realistic, meaning that when the persons are not unbelievably perfect in every aspect (especially since they are playing two broke persons).

I'm a female that is extremely picky about looks. I only feel attracted to super handsome males, like Brandon Routh in this movie.. But........ I slowly started to feel attracted to Zack, because of his personality, and his masculinity. I never thought I would feel this way towards such male because he's not my type in the least, physically. I wouldn't feel anything for such guy if I'd just seen him somewhere if I'd spent time with him I would actually start feeling for him. Because, he's kind of sexy in a weird way. lol so I'm saying that, there can be exceptions.

You sound like a pleasant, well-rounded and definitely not shallow individual. I'd love to see what you look like. If you put up an avatar that's really yourself, I'll shut up, but I'm willing to bet you're pretty "disgusting" yourself. Who do YOU f--k? Robert Pattinson? Captain America??

guys are more visual. girls like confidence and power. not saying i would date a super ugly confident guy but he might grow on me. confidence goes a long way, i wish guys would realize that and not worry so much about how they look. girls on the other hand, well, we are our own worst enemies, but even though guys talk a big talk online saying some gorgeous actress is 'not their type' they probably would date that girl in a moment if they met her in real life.

Pairing up schlubby looking men with menial jobs and smoking hot actresses who could be models is a long standing tradition in the American entertainment industry!
