they really filled our childish heads with wild ideas about what was considered ugly.

Not really ugly, but less desirable than MJ.

[–] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Which is still completely accurate.

Hm, I don't see that.

Yeah, but like ... movie ugly. Like Ogbert, the nerd that nobody realizes is handsome until he takes off his glasses.

“This is why I hated my first two weeks at the Royal Tampa Academy of tricks. No one knew who was the sluttiest. But I showed them.”

I was 13 at the time, and that was very much the impression that I got from the film at the time. remember it's hollywood, anything without iPhone face is considered ugly

I personally prefer human faces, but to each their own!

I always got the vibe that they were portraying her as a fallback girl, which nobody wants to be. She wasn't his first choice.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

IDK about ugly. At least plain looking.

on top of that, they filled my brain with the fact that I would never be attractive as a man because I would never shave my chest and have a six pack. these hollywood folks sure had a lot of unresolved issues

Damn you oddly muscular Tobey Maguire

[–] pelletbucket@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago

lol I was thinking more about the Abercrombie posters but yeah

I feel like they did that to Kathryn Hahn, who I thought was a total cutie, but they always cast her as “the friend.”

remember at the beginning of Princess Diaries when we were supposed to believe that Anne Hathaway was ugly because her hair was curly and she didn't pluck her eyebrows and she had glasses
