I forgot Joaquin used to be Hot

No. Never hot.

Too much chin. The extra weight not hides it a tad.

*now hides it

Yeah it was truly disappointing what he became. I believe he could return to hotness if he showered and groomed himself.

He looked like non-fat Elvis

I think he still looks good.

He had both the looks and a certain quality. So did his brother River, but they each had their own distinctness. I think Joaquin still has a certain aura, but his physical attractiveness is fading more because he's not taking care of himself rather than age.

NOSE. Yikes!

There has always been something a bit off about him.

As good an actor as he's turned out to be, deep down he probably knows that he wouldn't have made it had River survived. Someone like River sucks all the oxygen out of the room, so would have suffocated a just starting Joaquin's career.

I don't think he and River would have been competing for the same parts.

[quote]I don't think he and River would have been competing for the same parts.

No, of course not.

The point was that all attention and focus would have been on River, so Joaquin wouldn't have ever been considered to begin with.

That makes little sense. If Jamie Lynn Spears can headline her own series...

I wouldn't be surprised if River and Joaquin had different dads. All of the Phoenix siblings look like their dad except for River who was blond and blue-eyed with softer features.

River looked like his mother. Looking like your mother doesn't mean the man who raised you isn't your father.

R14 River had the same wonky left eye issue as his father did.

he really was (and still is) a hottie OP!😍😍

He was pretty when young, but I didn't care for the bearded, more rugged look he acquired as he got older.

I was so in love with him in the 2000s. The dark hair and those sparkling green eyes and that sexy stare! I first discovered him in 8MM when my siblings rented it one night. Man, was he ever sexy in that (see image below). I watched GLADIATOR, SIGNS, THE VILLAGE, LADDER 49, WALK THE LINE, and WE OWN THE NIGHT in theaters because of him.

I thought he was fuckable in Gladiator.

JOKER has reignited my love for him. He has really become a great actor.

I thought Joker was just terrible. And I honestly wanted to like it.

I can't believe Joker made so much money. I also wanted to like it but it left me cold. I'd rather rewatch the Deniro movie it copied, King of Comedy.

It was brilliant

He was very hot/sexy in Quills co-starring Geoffrey Rush and Kate Winslet.

I forgot how time works.

I can’t believe super wealthy Rooney got with his ass.

NO, not hot, Looked like a Fuckin' Weenix

This is usually my look and he leaves me cold. What makes a man a beauty? Symmetry and strength of features, combined with a certain raw masculinity and sexuality, perhaps?

His features are garish. They're just too much on too small a canvas. He will never be attractive, at least to me. He was well- cast as the white trash creep in To Die For. He could never play a gentleman or a General.

R28 he played a Roman emperor and was nominated for all the awards.

Can't get past the lies about his harelip.

Garish? Dude, that’s harsh

I remember thinking he looked peculiarly like an adult woman in Parenthood.

It's easy to forget, OP.
