It’s not often in movies (porn or otherwise) that men who wear glasses are considered as sex symbols. But I for one think that some gents look even sexier in their spectacles (now there’s a word I haven’t used in a very long time). In fact, if my reaction to two new movies is any indication, the movement of bespectacled studs is undergoing a bit of resurgence. Like a phoenix rising from the glasses, one might say.

CHRIS EVANS in THE LOSERS

Chris Evans wearing glasses will never be mistaken for a young Woody Allen–he’s just too hot to be anything but sexy–but in the entertaining flick, The Losers, the character he plays (Jensen) wears glasses nonetheless because, well, he’s a tech geek and a bit of a nerd. Funny and charming, alas, he’s socially inept when it comes to the ladies. But he totally rocks in his glasses, especially when he’s in a tight, white t-shirt. (Unfortunately, it was never written into the script for the actor to take his shirt off; which for anyone familiar with Evans’ smoking hot body on display in either of the otherwise dull Fantastic Four flicks, to consciously not include a shirtless scene in The Losers is nothing short of criminal.) But despite the sad omission of seeing his muscular, hairy chest on screen, the character of Jensen is attractive in part due to, and not despite, the fact that he wears glasses. I mean, I’d totally let him keep them on while he was fucking me.

The other film I saw last week that left me lusting after an actor in glasses was the twisted, hilarious, violent and pretty awesome flick, Kick-Ass, featuring relative newcomer, Aaron Johnson. Whereas I was familiar enough with Chris Evans to realize that finding him hot in a pair of glasses wouldn’t be a mind-blowing revelation to me, my almost immediate attraction to Johnson in Kick-Ass was like, well, a kick in the ass. He portrays the title character, who just happens to be a teenager (closer to 20 then 10, thank you very much). While watching the attractive, wavy haired and adorable actor on screen, I couldn’t believe how increasingly hot I was finding him; especially in his nerdy glasses. My movie companion was feeling the same heat, too.

After the flick, we both commented on our new crush. “God, I hope he’s one of those actors who looks younger than his actual age!” I exclaimed to my friend. A quick trip to IMDB and I was relieved, albeit only slightly, to discover that Aaron Johnson is (a legal) 19; and he turns 20 in June! And he’s British!

Interestingly enough though, the young actor is apparently expecting his first child with his 43 year old girlfriend, Sam Taylor Wood, who just so happens to have been Johnson’s director in Nowhere Boy, a flick about John Lennon, which is scheduled for release in North America in October of this year. Hmmm…he likes his lovers, shall we say a “bit” older? That’s half the battle won. Now if only I knew that he enjoyed the company of men as much he does women…

Fantasizing about Chris Evans and Aaron Johnson, both wearing their glasses, has me seeing double…and loving it.

Cheerio,

I’m always a bit embarrassed when exploring a “new” site only to discover that given the number of years it’s been around, it’s hardly “new” at all. And when it’s a sensational solo site like Squirtz, that embarrassment is coupled by regret; regret that I haven’t reviewed the site before. Oh well, better late than never, right?

Squirtz first came (so to speak) on the scene back in April 2002 and has continued to grow and evolve over the years. It’s loaded with more than 415 gents (and just as many videos) being interviewed before they jerk off in front of the camera. Not exactly a never-be-done-before premise for a site but unlike most of the competition, Squirtz really seems to have dedicated a lot of time, thought and effort into making the experience as memorable and hassle-free as it can for members.

For example, two of the quality produced videos within the Recent Updates pages serve as a great “coming attractions” feature: Best Cumshots of the Decade, and Biggest Dicks of the Decade. What better way for one to quickly establish a list of studs of personal interest than to compile one based on how impressively they shoot or how size-queen friendly they are? (Yes, I’m that shallow.–ha ha)

Best Cumshots showcases 75 dudes unloading their money shot. Immediately grabbing my attention, in seemingly record time I might add, were 11 guys: Theo, Loran, Aaron, Deano, Xavier, Marc, Ken, Sam, Cliff and Greg. The Biggest Dicks video offers just as many appetizing reasons (50, in fact) to spend some time on Squirtz. What an inspired way to instantly engage a new member!

How the individual videos are formatted is equal cause for celebration. Each consists of 6 sections: interview, striptease, ass close-up, dick close-up, cum shot and clean-up. So whether you want to enjoy the entire video or a specific aspect of it, that’s for you to decide; your wish is the site’s command.

As for the self-pleasuring models, there really is someone for everyone at Squirtz; unless you are in the market for your meat to be aged more than 30 years. And although surprisingly not featured in either the Cumshots or Dicks videos, I found myself immediately smitten with yummy Dereck (from a January 2007 shoot).

Clearly, Squirtz has me gushing with praise…among other things.

Cheerio,

My gods, I can’t believe the date of my last blog entry was over a month ago, on March 6, just before the Academy Awards. (BTW, I won the Oscar pool I was entered in. And that was with only 17 out of 24 correct predictions. Oh well, winners can’t be whiners!)

Now onto a movie as far away from Oscar consideration as you can get: Clash of the Titans. There are really only two reasons to see this film: getting to watch Aussie eye candy and Avatar star Sam Worthington run around in a skirt for an hour and a half, OR you lost a bet.

SAM WORTHINGTON

Okay, it’s not the worst movie you’ll ever see but it certainly isn’t worth the money you’ll have to pay to see it, especially when you take into consideration the additional coin it’ll cost you to see it in 3-D. If you’re looking to be dazzled by something in 3-D, then you best see a flick that was filmed with 3-D in mind. The decision to present Clash of the Titans in 3-D was nothing more than a cash grab on the part of the studio, which is pretty obvious with the movie’s lackluster offerings in that department. Seriously, the most impressive 3-D effects in the entire film can be found in its closing credits.

The special effects are average and some of the performances are embarrassing to watch. Ralph Fiennes is a fine actor but you’d never know it from his portrayal of Hades, the God of Hell and the Dead…and apparently scenery chewing. Liam Neeson is another actor I admire but brings nothing (except an occasional Irish accent) to his role of Zeus. Even the extras are terrible in this movie, notably the crowd scenes when Perseus (Worthington) and crew are heading out on their mission, or when the Princess is distributing bread to the poor.

Speaking of bread, it’s currently a case of Cash of the Titans at the box office. On top of the domestic charts (albeit narrowly ahead of Date Night) for a second week, the flick has amassed $110 million domestically and another $119 million in foreign markets. And with a somewhat modest budget of $125 million, it’ll probably qualify as a commercial if not critical hit. But its continued performance in the next few weeks will be telling. This past weekend, it tumbled almost 57% compared to its opening weekend. Another 3-D flick, How to Train Your Dragon, on the other hand, has been around one more week than Titans, made around $2 million less this past weekend than Titans, but only a 14% decrease from the week before.

Okay, back to Sam Worthington. The one good thing that I’m hoping will come from the success of Clash of the Titans is that coupled with Avatar, Worthington is now not only an attractive face, but a familiar one to movie audiences. Fingers crossed that on his cinematic horizon there’s a comedy (romantic or otherwise) or at least a film where he has his shirt off for an extended period of time. My gods would be pleased.

Cheerio!
