1. Ah.... Michael "girly eyes" Douglas.....
He shouldn't have ever had that eye lift or whatever it's called. It's almost impossible for me to take him seriously. I think I'm being superficial.

2. At least he doesn't have "coke jaw".
It wouldn't have been so bad if they hadn't pulled him so tightly.

3. Well....there's that.....
I was never a big fan of his, though I'd admit he plays a good hardass/asshole (much like his wife who I adore)--so truthfully his girly eyes didn't devastate me or anything....

I did enjoy The American President, though. He and Annette made a nice couple.

4. Tightly stretched plastic-surgery eyes don't look any better on women...
not sure what you mean by 'girly eyes.' :shrug:

8. Something about the smoothness....or something...
I don't know, I was being mostly silly--but I do feel his new eyes/face gives him a more feminine look all the way around, and his eyes are where I notice it most.

14. I don't like his plastic surgery either.
I'd rather he'd left himself alone, but such is Hollywood, I suppose.

I loved watching him play the nasty character in A Perfect Murder.

5. Why is it that a fake president is more real than our actual president?
I'd rather have him then our current idiot-in-chief.

10. I can think of several fictional presidents
who are better than CCB. All of the actors who play them, btw, are more intelligent, too.

11. Martin Sheen, for one.
Imagine Jed Bartlett as president?

12. So good of a thought.
Maybe the Dems can hire Aaron Sorkin?

Also, David Palmer from 24, and, hell, even Bill Pullman from Independence Day got in the fighter plane to save America.

13. I'd go with David Palmer, although he surrounded himself with people
who were not good at all and let himself be swayed. But get rid of them, and I'd say definitely!

9. That's good ... we have it in our collection.
But I think "Dave" is my favorite president movie. :bounce:
