Ryan Reynolds Unwrapped
We've always had a fratboy fetish for Ryan Reynolds, ever since that show about the guy, the girl, and the pizza place, but a recent photo (right) taken at the premiere of Blade: Trinity reveals his stunning transformation from work-in-progress adolescent into chiseled superhero!
ADDENDUM: The bigger shock comes when comparing this classic pose from Van Wilder to this screenshot from Blade:Trinity. Nice work Mr. Reynolds.
(thanks for the extras Brent)
Since it's Friday, and we've had far too much of gay marriage this week for one blog to handle, we present screenshots (in case you missed it) from the comedy epic Reynolds starred in with Jerry O'Connell, Buying the Cow. In this scene, Reynolds' character attempts to flee a bedroom where he has awakened to find himself in bed with another man. (with thanks to tottyland)
Screenshots after the jump.

Jimbo is fond of saying that Reynold's abs look like giant raviolis.
Now that's some chef-BOY-ardee I could eat!

Reynolds saved Blade III from vampire flick mediocrity, not just for his hotness, but all of his lines cracked me up.

I think I like the before pics better :)

And after a quick trip to IMDb I realize -- two years only between both pics, I must really get myself a gym membership.

i like the before picture better, too ;)

I like him either way!
Posted by: Mark | Dec 10, 2004 2:53:31 PM
just by looking at his face picts, there is definitely something else besides age, muscles, and facial hair that makes him look different.
I can't put my finger on it but something else. Plastic surgery? but i cant figure out where??
can any one guess?

in the words of his fiance Ms Morrisette..."thank you" for the before and after pics....

Ryan screems queen! Have you heard him speak. He has a big lisp, i think ms Morrisette is blind unless she likes feminate guys.

Maybe he asked Barry Bonds for some of that creme that Barry used to help with his arthritis and suddenly Ryan blossomed like Barry.

He's also the coverboy for Men's Health

I have been a fan of Ryan Reynolds since he was on "fifteen" on Nickelodeon, when i was just younger than that. He's a little too beefy in Blade I think, but the other night on Conan you could tell he's eating and working out like a normal boy again and I bet that is when he is at his hottest. YUM.

HE doesnt have a lisp
Posted by: sdfg | Dec 11, 2004 5:14:46 AM
Wow! What A transformation!
Posted by: Trunkguy | Dec 11, 2004 9:21:06 AM
He definitely looks like he's been working out more, but I think that a lot of the difference (not all) between the two pics has to do with the tan and the differences in the lighting and the camera angles in the two pictures. I don't think he's on steroids - the upper body doesn't look strangely out of proportion with the rest of him.

His face is MUCH tighter and his jaw is more pronounced. Reynolds must have had a face job.
Posted by: SteveE | Dec 11, 2004 1:28:54 PM
I'll give him a face job! (couldn't help myself)
Posted by: Dan B | Dec 11, 2004 5:35:57 PM
its not a lisp, its just that he's canadian
Posted by: torontwrong | Dec 13, 2004 4:13:25 PM
Other than the extensive working out, he just lost that natural bit of baby fat that many guys lose when they are in their early college age years when they stop looking like a boy and start looking like a man. That's the only reason his face looks different. I strongly doubt he had any plastic surgery.
