Chris Pine all suited up for C mag: would you hit it or not so much?

Chris Pine

Chris Pine covers the spring issue of C Magazine (he’s promoting Star Trek: Into Darkness), and they’ve named the feature “Well Suited.” As such, Chris is photographed wearing various metrosexual suits in various locales, but each of these shots has one thing in common — intense face. Somehow and despite the fact that all of these suits must cost a few thousand dollars apiece, Chris is somehow looking scruffy, but that’s a look he favors of late.

Now I understand that Chris is something of a heartthrob by contemporary Hollywood standards, but I just don’t see it. Does he do it for you? He seems kind of like a controlling tool, and I’m not much of a Star Trek buff, so I’m not really his target audience. He looks good here in a very unwashed, scruffy male model sort of way.

Chris may very well be scoring (obscure) magazine covers and technically be the lead actor of the rebooted Star Trek franchise, but I don’t think anyone is paying attention anymore now that Benedict Cumberbatch has entered the premises. Here’s the latest trailer again, just for kicks.

    I’ll pass. He’s way to pretty for me.

    • Alexandra Bananarama says:

      Normally i’m all about him, but these pics do make him look too pretty. He needs to be more gruff.

    • T.C. says:

      Pass X2. He is just so generic looking. Chris Pine’s acting is so one note, Cumberbatch is going to wipe the floor with him on Star Trek.

      • Alexandra Bananarama says:

        I know better than to talk smack about BC on this site. However, I’m not a fan of BC’s acting. And I will take generic smoking hot, master’s degree brain and looks over androgynous alien looks.

        Now i’m going to run far away before the Cumberbitches grab their pitchforks and light their torches.

      • Mia 4S says:

        Run Alexandra run! 🙂 seriously though I’m a Cumby fan but a lot of his fans have a bad habit of putting down others to try and build him up. I understand, his looks get made fun of alot (A LOT). However acting insecure only gives those putting him down credibility. Plus he’s already said in an interview how great Pine is in the movie. Let Cumby’s work speak for itself, fellow Celebitches; no one likes insecure bitches. 😉

      • Alexandra Bananarama says:

        Mia Well said.
        You’re making me dislike him less. I guess the cumberbitches did come across so defensive and rude that through association BC became undesirable to me.

    • lambchops says:

      Ditto. Snooze. Not manly.

  2. Stormy says:

    Yeah I feel for Pine since you know Cumberbatch is going to OWN that movie. No one is thinking about him or what’s his face that is playing Spock.

    • Belle says:

      Speak for yourself… some of us will still be thinking about him 😉

      • Mia 4S says:

        Amen Belle, amen. I like him, he’s funny and actually went to and graduated university (sad that in Hollywood that amazed me).

        He will do even better as he grows out of his boyishness, and I am actually really looking forward to Jack Ryan.

      • Belle says:

        Holy Crap Mia… is he doing a Jack Ryan movie?? How did I miss that?

      • Mia 4S says:

        Jack Ryan coming out at Christmas. I’ve loved those movies since Red October so I am excited!

  3. Talie says:

    His career seemed to stall a bit, but I could see him being like Bradley Cooper…getting some momentum as he hits his mid to late thirties.

  4. elceibeno says:

    Is this question rhetorical? Yes I would hit it. Chris Pine is smoldering hot.

  5. judyjudy says:

    Not really doing it for me. He’s all yours.

  6. Ashling says:

    Not a big fan. He seems jerky.

    • Alexandra Bananarama says:

      Pine is a jerk and a narcissist, but he’s witty, smart, and kinky. With that said, hitting it and dating it are 2 different things.

      • jaye says:

        In my eyes, CP has all the ingredients that make a physically attractive man, but…they’re just not…put together in a way that makes him attractive. The kinky however is intriguing.

        P.S. I never really got the BC love, but he really is quite spectacular when in motion.

  7. Autumn says:

    Yummmmmmm…

  8. Marty says:

    Not really, but he seems very funny in TV interviews.

  9. Belle says:

    Um… yes, in the woods, up against that tree. Admittedly, I would prefer a smoother, less back-shredding type of tree, but oh well, I can deal. 🙂

    Oh, and you don’t really need to be a Star Trek buff to enjoy the new, re-booted versions. Most die-hard trekkies (which I am not) DON’T like them… lol

    • Belle says:

      Upon further examination of the photos, Chris has a serious CFM vibe in that car, so I just might forget the back-shredding tree and comply… in the car.

  10. JC says:

    He looks good and far better than Benedict.

  11. lori says:

    closet pervert. And not in a good way. Kinda like Bradley Coopers serial killer eyes. this guy gives me the sex offenders watch list vibe

  12. marie says:

    nah, not really..

  13. mercy says:

    I don’t find Cumberbatch particularly attractive, but his face has character and he’s interesting to look at and watch. This guy is so conventionally pretty that he bores me to tears. But I don’t know much about him. Maybe his acting or personality would draw me in. I’ve only seen him in a couple things and neither made much of an impression.

  14. duchessofhazard says:

    Hollywood has been trying to make him happen for a while (on the face of it, I can see why – he’s in his 30s, so relatively young, white and American – yay), but Pine doesn’t have the charisma or likeability factor for a leading man at all.

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      @Dutchesofhazard, who wrote: “Hollywood has been trying to make him happen for a while (on the face of it, I can see why – he’s in his 30s, so relatively young, white and American – yay), but Pine doesn’t have the charisma or likeability factor for a leading man at all.”

      No, Directors who recognize true talent when they see it have been trying to make him happen for a while. Chris Pine is very much a Leading Man with tons of charisma and sex appeal, which you will see (or not) on December 25, 2013 when the first of the re-vamped C.I.A. agent Jack Ryan films “Jack Ryan” is released. Let’s talk then about Leading Man appeal. 🙂

  15. Val says:

    I think he likes to have some scruff because he had some skin issues when he was younger that left him with acne scarring. And yes, would hit it a thousand times.

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      @Val …

      Yes! I’d hit it so hard, you’d hear it fall in a Forest. 😉

      And true about his face. Those old acne scars (which you can plainly see in any of his closeups) and other longer scars on his face makes him roughly handsome. This man is sex on a stick. I think he is one of the truly gifted young male actors around today, and I expect in ten years most of his detractors here will be singing his praises. 🙂

      He is a very private young man, but that doesn’t necessarily make him a tool.

  16. DT says:

    I’ve seen him twice on stage in Los Angeles. He’s really good. This guy has talent and I’m looking forward to seeing him develop it.

  17. Simmy says:

    Hell yes.

    Star Trek aside he hasn’t had the best luck with movie roles, but I’ve seen him do theater and he’s a much better actor than his film career suggests.

  18. sirsnarksalot says:

    He’s very generic looking. He reminds me of the NCIS actor who plays Tony. And facial hair on a guy that grows that far up on the cheek creeps me out. I’ll pass

  19. Tiffany says:

    He is his father’s son. Man, they look just alike.

    • KellyinSeattle says:

      He also looks a lot like my brother!! I was surprised at the similarities. I hate hate hate Chris’ suit!! (notice my proper grammar; use of apostrophes. 🙂

  20. Decloo says:

    Is it just me or does this guy have an incredibly big head?

  21. abbizmal says:

    Oh yeah, I’d so hit it.

    As for Cumbersnatch, no idea what you see in him. He creeps me out.

  22. GeeMoney says:

    He’s no Cumberbatch… but I would throw some his way 🙂

  23. moon says:

    I think he’s hot, would totally hit it based on looks…but his modelizer ways and hitting on audrina partridge are a complete turn off

  24. ChattyCathy says:

    I would hit it. Like a screen door in a windstorm. It’s probably all wrong but I thought he hit his dirtysexy peak inSmokin Aces

  25. I Choose Me says:

    Nope. Not even a hint of a tingle.

    Post some Zachary Quinto as Spock posts and then we’ll talk.

  26. Essa says:

    I dont like neither of them. I first saw Cumberbatch in Atonement and hated him since, stupid, i know but he does nothing for my biscuit.
    As of chris, i don’t see the appeal. I dont like his acting either
    My current hot list (Mcavoy, richard armitage, Alexander skars)

  27. Abby says:

    Kinky? Pervert? Please explain where this comes from. Not attacking, just never heard this about him and am curious.

    • leilani says:

      look up olivia munn dirty texts and you’ll see…they used to date back in 2009 and last year her texts got “hacked”..
      yea no, I’ll pass….he reeks of skeeviness.

      • Hakura says:

        Oh my. I now know more about her than I ever wanted to. My curiosity got the better of me x_X

      • WOM says:

        WHY DID I GOOGLE THAT?!?? ARGH! MY BRAIN! MY EYES!!!!

        Actually this makes me think less of Munn (and here I thought my low opinion of her couldn’t sink further) AND makes me think MORE of Pine’s PR people. They handled that beautifully and silently. But yes, my Pine Lurve took a bit of a hit.

        As for these photos: the juxtaposition of the sharp suits and the facial scruff is too great. These set-ups with Chris in casual clothes OR Chris freshly shaven would’ve improved them immeasureably.

  28. Vennie says:

    My daughter and I watched Just My Luck (movie he was in with lindsay Lohan) this weekend. He was the only good thing about the movie. He was so cute!

  29. ChocolateFreak says:

    Generic and boring… He could be made in Photoshop from the scratch.
    I miss the times when Hollywood leading men were tall, dark and handsome, in an old-fashioned way. There are so few guys now that give off that vibe.
    BC isn’t Gregory Peck or Gene Kelly, but he’s got charisma in spades.

    • Mia 4S says:

      LOL! Sorry I can’t help it. Tall? Gene Kelly was 5’7. 😉 Larger than life I suppose, sorry, I love Gene but this just really made me laugh.

      I’ll give you Peck, but Pine and Cumby both break 6ft.

  30. Cazzie says:

    Yeah – for someone with an English degree from UC Berkeley, he just doesn’t give off that smart vibe…at all.

    And what’s up with all these references to him being kinky?

    Depending on the kink, that might make him much more interesting. 😉

    • Hakura says:

      I know, I’m curious about that too… From what’s been said, it could be anywhere from bondage to Ray J peeing on KimK. *shudder*

      Edit – Nevermind, I am now more aware than I ever wanted to be, damned curiosity. Let’s just say… He likes things more than a little.. ‘rough’.

  31. Lottie says:

    Holy 5-head

  32. aligirl says:

    He does NOTHING for me. I’ll pass

  33. anon1 says:

    No.
    I’m not sure where the “pretty boy” tag is coming from. I don’t think he is in the least-not that there is anything wrong with being a pretty boy.

  34. AustinMJ says:

    what the hell, i’de hit it.

  35. Zooyork says:

    I think his lips blend in with his skin tone too much and it looks gross.

    • Hakura says:

      Hey… Some of us naturally have lips with very little pigment, so can’t help it. My upper lip is the same color as my skin, even though it’s shaped nice. It’s a pain in the ass, but I don’t think it’s ‘Gross’.

  36. Hakura says:

    Eh… He’s okay. He’s the kind you’d sort of have to interact with before knowing if you found them attractive enough to quote “Hit it”.

    Not much for sci-fi, but the movie does look like it’ll probably be pretty good. From an artistic stand point, the work is amazing.

  37. Josephina says:

    I like his lips, chin, eyes, smile…I wish his shoulders were broader.

    And I really do like his height.

    And he DOES have natural charisma. He has swagger too.

    He is almost too pretty. He just needs to pick roles that exemplify that he’s a man’s man. He defintniely has the sex appeal.

    Let’s see what Hollywood does with him.

  38. Lexi says:

    Not so much! He’s cute but i’ll pass

  39. Jennifer says:

    Ick. No. I wouldn’t hit that with someone else’s equipment.

  40. Lane says:

    How anyone could choose Benedict Cumberbatch over Chris Pine is a mystery to me.

  41. Crisistina says:

    I actually like Zachary Quinto more than C.Pine… It somehow makes Spock almost as hot as Cumberbatch. Both hot, kind of pervy looking guys.
