You know, in movies when that nerdy guy/girl who you never seemed to notice took off his/her glasses, they suddenly become the handsome and the gorgeous?
I watched Kick-Ass quite recently and I found the main character very unconvincing. He's fit, muscular, and generally handsome. I'm not saying nerds can't be handsome, but the attempt to make him look like a dork who has no life just falls flat when you are starring a good-looking young man and really only putting glasses on him. And now the new Spiderman trailer is out, I'm getting incredibly turned off by Hollywood. Toby wasn't great, but whoever that pretty boy who looks like he's in a twilight movie just lost me.
Point is, everyone likes to watch pretty people. But it's not like they stop being pretty and instantly become the bullied/ugly kid around town when they put on glasses. I think when peeps are pretty, it won't matter if they wear glasses or not. End of story.
