Hot Guy Friday: some nerds, hotties and lovelies for your weekend

wenn2934770

Two weeks ago, I introduced this concept of “Hot Guy Friday” – just a post devoted to new or newish photos of various hot men from the week. I didn’t follow up on it last week, and for that I apologize. But since today is kind of slow, why not revisit it? There are a ton of photos coming in from Comic-Con, and a lot of hot men showed up to promote their shizz. Since humor is oh-so-sexy, let’s start off with my lover Will Ferrell, dressed up as “Megamind” from the cartoon he did voice work for. I can’t even look at these photos without chuckling. I bet Will was so into it, he even painted his wang blue. Anything for comedy.

Is it just me, or is Aaron Eckhart’s chin dimple growing in size? He’s still sexy, though. His face just looks a little cartoony.

My mom wants to wrap Matt Bomer up in bacon and devour him, she loves this kid so much. He’s a Southern boy, and she loves that. I find him excessively pretty, but still very pleasurable to look at:

I realize we’re all over Eli Roth, if we were ever into him (I was, for a moment). Here he is with Peaches Geldof today at Comic-Con. WHY?!?

Jeff Bridges is still The Man, even if these photos of him at Comic-Con aren’t that great. Did you know that he’s in TRON: Legacy? Yeah. Come on, Jeff! But at least he shaved.

Is it wrong to admit that Bruce Willis still kind of does it for me? He needs to make another really good movie. Something sexy.

Aw… here’s Liev Schreiber looking hunky with his two ultra-blonde boys. Cute.

42792, SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA - Wednesday July 21, 2010. Actor Liev Schreiber, accompanied by a nanny, takes his two sons Alexander and Samuel for a dad's day out in Santa Monica. First, they stopped off at a park where they fed ducks and played in the playground. They then hit a farmer's market for a quick snack before heading over to the Santa Monica pier for some amusement rides. Liev could be seen taking video of his kids on the rides on his new iPhone.

I always forget that Matthew Settle was in Band of Brothers – and he was wonderful in it. Now he’s an old dude on Gossip Girl. What the hell? I love this photo, though. It’s very 1970s, very evocative.

Zackary Quinto pings on everybody’s gaydar, right? But still, he’s kind of gay-nerd-hot.

'Star Trek' Actor Zachary Quinto was spotted rocking a bright blue sleeveless shirt and listening to some tunes while taking a walk in SoHo in New York City, NY on July 21, 2010. Quinto is said to be returning to his roll as 'Spock' in the upcoming 'Star Trek' sequel which will begin filming some time in January 2011.  Fame Pictures, Inc

Paul Rudd’s Jesus look. It kind of works!

Co Stars Paul Rudd and Elizabeth Banks were seen looking very different than usual while shooting their new movie 'My Idiot Brother' in New York City, NY on July 21, 2010. While Banks sported a new brunette hair style, the real transformation was Rudd, who looked almost unrecognizable with long dark hair and a beard. The film is currently slated to have a 2011 release.  Fame Pictures, Inc

Simon Baker does it for me, even though his hair was f-cked at this event.

Timberlake isn’t my taste at all, but there were a million photos of him this week as he filmed in New York with Mila Kunis. Here’s one of the few photos that didn’t make him look like an enormous tool:

Seth Rogen doesn’t look terrible. He’s actually pretty cute, in an accessible kind of way.

Does Zac Efron send any cougar tingles to any ladies? I think he’s a cute boy, but he needs to get a handle on the hair. He just looks dumb with it like that.

And because no hot-guy list would be complete, Jeremy Piven. He just turned 45 years old! And still with the hairline of a 32 year old! How does he make that happen? Honestly, though, he looks kind of cute here.

One more (since I don’t want to end it on The Piv): Brad Pitt. Always a classic.

    Xenu and Eli-puke-Roth should NOT be in this list. EWWWWWWWWW.

    (Or was that just for contrast, to make us appreciate the rest even more?)

  2. Oi says:

    Zach and Bomer are both gay. Sad really for us girls. But Bomer and Mr. Bomer have 3(?) kids too. Really great guy, love his show. name can get tricky:

  3. jzhz says:

    I’ll take the first two and Pitt, the rest look a bit…worn.

  4. cantbelievethis says:

    Love Matt Bomer:)

  5. buckley says:

    I have to say that I’m looking beyond the prettiness of Z.Efron because he actually seems very talented.
    I think he will becomea very good actor unlike some others (looking at you Sparkles)

  6. denise says:

    I don’t know who Matt Bomer is but, Yum.
    Aaron is looking really good in that pic.
    Justin Timberlake does nothing for me.
    Hate Brad’s new look, bring back Brad from Troy!!
    Bruce stays handsome.
    And Zac is such a cutie.

    Everyone else, blah.

    Except SEth Rogen, I like him.

    And lol@ blue Will ferrell.

  7. buckley says:

    oh and does anybody remember Jeff Bridges in that movie “Against all Odds”?
    Dayum!

  8. LindyLou says:

    Brad Pitt looks sooooo much better without the scruff. I forgot how hot he was/is.

  9. Chickadees4me says:

    LOL @ Xenu in the garden, hope hes got his lifts in there, may have a tough time finding is way out if not.

  10. nnn says:

  11. marge says:

  12. jen says:

  14. Jeri says:

    Jeff Bridges in Starman, yum. (Hope my memory is correct re: Actor & Film)

  15. LolaBella says:

    Great list Kaiser.

    I’ll take Matt Bomer, Aaron Eckhart, Simon Baker, Zac Efron, Paul Rudd and Zachary Quinto (sexy nerdy Spock)to go.

    Oh and of course Brad Pitt…in the grotto…over and over and over.

    Please and Thank you!

    I am happy to say that the taint of Peaches Geldof has cured me of my Eli Roth obsession.

    Happy Friday Ladies!

  16. missmilly says:

    ROFL! XENU in the garden!!! OH my you totally just made my Friday!!! My eyes were watering on that one…that was stuck in the middle and I did not expect it!! Thank you!

  17. meme says:

    I’ll take Simon Baker and Brad Pitt, maybe Zac is a few years. The rest PFFFFT

  18. Miss X says:

    Efron better actor than Sparkles? LMAO

  19. buckley says:

    Sorry Miss X if I forgot to put: IN MY OPINION.
    Hope that’s better.

  20. emma says:

    matt bomer (yes, i know he’s gay, but who cares), simon baker, and brad pitt….yum

  21. suz says:

    LMAO @ xenu in the garden!!! I was also in tears. what is that picture anyway?

    And Hippie Paul Rudd is soooo adorable. Please keep this tradition alive!!!

  22. Patrice says:

    Matt Bomer is RI-DICULOUS!!! I’ve been majorly crushing for him since I first saw him in “Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning” a few years back : ) Absolutely Gorgeous.

  23. canadianchick says:

    Mmm Matt B. Thanks Kaiser I lmao re Xenu.

  24. Fluffy Kitten Tail says:

    You could have included Jon Hamm. After all, there is no such thing as Hamm overload.

  25. Mindy says:

    Is it me or does Brad’s hair look “off”? You know.. he wore that damn hat for the last year along with the nasty beard.. maybe he’s BALDING and doesn’t want to admit it, so he’s wearing a toupee?

  26. Audra says:

    SIMON BAKER – enough said. Love the Hot Guy Friday pics!

  27. Kayla N. says:

    Gay or no gay, ZQ is one DAMN fine piece o’ man candy. DELICIOUS, yum.

  28. Hautie says:

    Aaron Eckhart is my favorite!

    I find nothing wrong with that man. He ranks right up there with The Hamm. Looking all manly!

    Now if we are going to compare when Jeff Bridges was at his prettiness… for me it was Jagged Edge. Oh how gorgeous he was during the entire 80’s.

    And I completely agree with the whole Bruce Willis thing. His sexy never gets old for me either.

  29. Shawna says:

    “Xenu in the garden:” I think we all need to make a community painting of that title. 🙂

    As for the Piv, I think if you want that kind of look, go for Alan Rickman!

  30. TQB says:

    Why the lack of love for JT?? C’mon, give him a chance. I gave the Hamm a chance because of you, and am totally converted. Love me some Timberflake, any time, anywhere.

    oh and Xenu in the garden was hilarious.

  31. TQB says:

    Oh and for the record, Piv had the hairline of a 45 year old when he was 32. He’s not just the president of the hair club for men, he’s a member.

  32. Dhavy says:

    I keep telling people that Piven has the best hair plugs out there because he’s had a receding hairline since his 20s and they get surprised!

    Anyway, the Xenu comment made me day. Zac Efron is too pretty for his own good, I’ve loved Paul Rudd since Cher said “he looks like a Bladwin” and Brad Pitt is hot and that’s not a toupee it’s gray hair

  33. LolaBella says:

    Did someone say Alan Rickman????!

    Hands down one of the sexiest men ever; I wouldn’t mind if you included him in one of your Hot Guy Fridays, Kaiser.

  34. Mairead says:

    I ADORE that pic of Will Ferrall – the man is a legend. Please let any and all skeletons in his closet be of the comic halloween variety!

    Efron needs to gain 10 years.

    You give us The Pivert two weeks in a row and no Joseph Gordon Levitt? For shame!

    Oh and Capn’ Jack Sparrow made a surprise (screen) appearance at Comic Con, surely that would have been enough excuse for a bit of Mr. Depp?

  35. bellaluna says:

    Wow, and to think, Comic-Con is just a few short miles down the freeway from me! I’ll take Bruce – I find bald extremely sexy – and Aaron any day!

  36. AlaskaJoey says:

    Are there any pictures of Karl Urban from Comic Con? Because sweet baby Jesus, that man does it for me.

    Thank you for Matt Bomer, too.

    But Zach Quinto’s new haircut is making me want to cry.

  37. Bunny says:

    SIMON BAKER….all the way. Matthew Settle looks mysteriously sexy.

  38. Really says:

    Agree with Marge, Need some Clive Owen

  39. Anti-icon says:

    Simon Baker is sex on a stick. He is my fave to look at and listen to with that Australian accent.

  40. birdgherl says:

    Wow, Brad is looking very Robert Redford in that photo.

  41. Anonymous says:

    Maybe I’m just old, but isn’t Brad Pitt exuding a Robert Redford (ala Sneakers) vibe?

  42. Ruffian9 says:

    “Xenu in the garden.”

    Ok, now THAT was funny!

  43. melina says:

    I want Hot Guy Friday every week, Kaiser!

  44. Tiffany says:

    Kaiser- Jeff Bridges was in the original ‘Tron’ movie and is also in this one, they are not discussing how big his part is but he was in the original. Also, keep this going every week, not just for when it is slow or you are bored, we need out consistency of hotties.:)

    Mairead- I agree, no JGL on this list, he has been promoting ‘Inception’ for awhile and is dressed to impress.

    I want Leo on the list because the man just knows how to wear suits…YES!!!

  45. Jill says:

    Please post some hot pics of Travis Milne from Rookie Blue. Ever seen his portfolio?.. well, yum.

  46. Riley says:

    In The River Wild, BP looks like a young Robert Redford. He also looks like Robert Redford in the photo above.

  47. Sadie says:

    I had a comment,but someone mentioned Alan Rickman….I’m so distracted….

  48. Starr says:

    Ha! Post #2 for me. Keep the tradition alive! Long Live Hot Guy Friday!

    Short no list: Ferrel, Roth, Quinto and Piven. *Side note* the only time I thought Pivs looked good was in Chasing Liberty (Request for hottie Matthew Goode) where Annabella Sciorra made fun of his hairline and he finally shaved it off. It was a good look for him.

    The rest…oh yes.

    Never heard of either Matts. But Bomer for sure. Nice eyes just like my little Zac Efron. I liked him in 17 again, thought he had great chemistry with Leslie Mann. So maybe he’ll be a great actor someday. Never saw the HSMs. Zack Quinto is weird, but kinda cute. Simon Baker has a great smile. Love love Aaron Eckhart, he’s MY Clive. Paul Rudd is my comic lover. Loved him forever. Which brings me to Seth. I’ve told my hubby for years now that Seth ain’t no rom lead….but after this pic. I’ll bite. He looks nerdy cute. Liev’s ok but I really like his voice. Is that weird? JT-he’s cute and all but he seems like a total douchenozzle. Serious Leo-wanna-be vibes from this guy. Plus he loses even more points for the Biel. Oldies but goodies-Zenu and Bruce. If only we could go back to before the couch jumping, scientologist flag waving weirdo….sigh…Yes, Tom Cruise is a handsome fella. Bruce Willis? Meow. He had me at Moonlighting, short of some weird event taking place, I’ll always be a fan. Brad Pitt has always reminded me of Robert Redford, especially loved Spy Game. He’s smokin for years to come. Finally, let’s just say the Dude abides.

  49. Bee says:

    @birdgherl,anonymous and Riley I immediately thought Brad looked liked Robert Redford( circa “Three Days of the Conder” and “All the President’s Men) when I saw him at the premiere too. “Memories, like the colors of my mind…” God, Robert Redford was such a sexy hunk of man back in the day. And he still is. I’d fly to Sundance just to get a glimpse of him. I also don’t think Brad’s ever been sexier.

  50. adnovitam says:

    Isn’t this kind of sexist?

    Do one on women too, for equality?

  51. Toe says:

    @ AlaskaJoey
    DAMN, I thought I was the only one in LOOOVE with Karl Urban. I would like him to take me rough. I noticed him sin Lord of the Rings. i wanted to be all over him in The Bourne Supremacy

  52. Buddha DeCat says:

    “Is it wrong to admit that Bruce Willis still kind of does it for me?”

    Yes! EW!!!

  53. Patrice says:

    #50: Reallly? Someone just HAD TO take it there (rolls eyes). When did appreciating good looking guys beciome “sexist”? God. Some people really just need to ruin things for everyone…

  54. Mercedes says:

    WHAT?!?!?! No Joe “I want to lick you like cream” Manganiello? Kind of funny his last name starts with “Manga”… meaning “eat”. LOL

    Liev Schreiber is SO hot…but Tom Cruise? ewww… and double ewwwww on Eli Roth.

  55. Truthzbetta says:

    Finally, a site that provides some man meat lust shots instead of megan fox licking her lips shots ad nauseum.

    These must be the only threads of their kind, it’s about time. Carry on.

  56. Lulu says:

    Xenu in the garden just killed me. LMAO!!!

  57. Anne de Vries says:

    I wish these lists would be a little more diverse… it’s pretty pasty white!

  58. ViktoryGin says:

    After going down the list and throught the thread, I can’t help be struck and the lack of interest or utter repulsion of Tom Cruise. It’s amazing to recall that the man was one of the biggest sex symbols of the 90s. Though I’ve never been attracted to Tom Cruise, I could understand why other women were and now he’s virtual Hollywood pariah. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.

    Liev Shreiber. Fantastic actor whose talent is incredibly sexy. I would fuck his talent, if I could.

    I admit that I have a crush on Seth Rogen. With hair, though. There’s just something about his beard and jew fro that turns me on.

    Thank you, Brad Pitt, for proving to the world that you still have it. Because we were wondering…

    I was subjected to “Seventeen Again” on a plane ride to Asia, and was so ashamed to find myself horribly attracted to Zac Efron in that movie. The boy…and I do mean “boy”…is pretty.

    And who mentioned Joseph Gordon-Levitt? I know he’s not on the list, but damn if he isn’t crushworthy in “Inception”. Been watching him for the last 15 years and have just recently fround myself attracted to him for the first time.

    Hey, Kasier and CB, how about a post of the new British import Tom Hardy. He plays Eames in “Inception”. Just saw him in an adaption of “Wuthering Heights” as Heathcliff, and he really is a revelation. Prodgiously talented actor and quite easy on the eyes.

  59. Kiska says:

    The manly men do it for me over the pretty boys.

    Bruce Willis would be my pick in the bunch.

  60. outsider says:

    peaches geldof: have you read her very nice comment on twitter about comic con? she said “Every dude here is clutching bunches of comics the way they clutch their penises every night whilst obsessively masturbating over Anime”. so wtf did you go there, you dirty skunk?how can eli stand someone that says that kind of shit?I hope she overdoses soon.

  61. lucy2 says:

    Bomer is my winner of the week.
    I don’t really get the JT appeal, and don’t find ZQ attractive at all.

    Xenu in the garden made me LOL.
    No more PIVEN!!! Ruins the hot Guy Friday every time!

  62. I Choose Me says:

    Much love for:
    Zachary Quinto
    Paul Rudd
    Bruce Willis
    Simon Baker

    “You give us The Pivert two weeks in a row and no Joseph Gordon Levitt? For shame!”

    I totally, enthusiastically, fist-pumpingly agree Mairead. Can we get some JGL up in here!!!!

  63. Kimberley says:

    Oh my gosh I can’t get enough of Jeremy Piven (aaand Zac!!)
