Normally nobody catches my eye until they are at least in their mid-30's and my preference is to see some fur, but I have to admit that Channing Tatum is smokin'. Good for him!

Matt Bomer - the hottest human on earth. Where can I buy a season pass!

I'm sorry but they look like twinks from Sunset Boulevard. Weakly muscled bodies with not an ounce of masculinity on them. This happens when you spend time at a Hollywood gym doing light barbell work and avoiding food except for the odd stick of celery.
And the total lack of body hair! How much was their waxing bill? Sorry but I'll pass on this travesty. They ought to call it Twink Central for stupid women.

Needs more Joe!

Just couldn't resist!
Bomer gives a real...boner.

Where the dude from TRUE BLOOD? That's a man. The rest look like boys. Pretty boys but boys none the less.
(And who do they think is going to see this movie besides gay men and a few single middle aged women?)

I almost agree with Jason, which is frightening, if it's the usual Jason. To each his own, but the cookie cutter hairless gym bods are simply boring to me.

lol twinks? you've got to be kidding me. i don't know how you look at that picture of the group and think twinks. hairless? yes. but that's part of the story. strippers who strip for women always wax their bodies.

Matthew Bomer and Adam Rodriguez...SO FUCKIN SEXY!!! :D

Tatum has turned out to be smarter than he looks as far as his career is concern-but this movie looks like a male version of "Showgirls"
Posted by: jaragon | Jan 12, 2012 6:23:11 PM
Are you kidding? Now that they've said there will be no full-frontal (male at least) nudity in this, some of us are PRAYING it's as trashy and fun as Showgirls!

I'm highly suspicious of this movie...they've been obviously pitching it to the geighs for MONTHS, yet we've already been told "no full frontal nudity" which is ludicrous in a film about male strippers. You can bet if this was a film about FEMALE strippers, you'd see a lot of lady bush.
And, does this film have any gay content other than semi nekkid men? If they do not have any gay/bi/questioning characters with sizable roles/plotlines, then this movie is completely bogus.

Jason has, ummm, some issues to work through.
Posted by: JoshG | Jan 12, 2012 6:54:51 PM
Yeah, girlie men! Disgusting celery-eating girlie men. Why, if that Matt Bomer dared to show up at my house looking like that, he'd be lucky if I gave him an hour to get dressed. Okay maybe an hour and a half. Tops.

@Michael Strangeways -- bush in a stripper film -- if you remember Showgirls correctly -- Nomi had a Brazilian. I am sure we would get a reply of Bruno's anal bleaching comments with visuals if that was the case here - yuck!

Young men in shape and smooth. HOW TOTALLY novel, how TOTALLY unique. This is cutting edge. WOW just WOW at the daring nature of this.

OMFG!!!!!! Woof, cant wait for this one.
Posted by: TFSE | Jan 12, 2012 7:54:26 PM
Channing Tatum, unlike many stars who whitewash their past, revels in it adorably... and gets an Oscar-calibre director to boot!
Then he gets some of the most gorgeous men in TV to costar, so that's all good sexy silly fun too...
So can some of you stop being such awful miserable bitches?

Living the dream!

@ Derek - agree - why are some gay men so bitchy - oh that's right the jealous gay gene.

I accept that this is just typical Hollywood fluff - but what I don't appreciate is how many of the studios now rely on "Gay" money to turn a profit.
In their minds all they need to do is dangle a few shirtless promo pictures at "Gay Blog" of the moment and they expect us to come running (so to speak). (Kellan Lutz anyone?)
Posted by: Steven | Jan 12, 2012 9:44:20 PM
I don't think ANY Hollywood studio relies on gay money. If they did, they would go bust! Sorry to burst your bubble but it's not all about the gays.
And this is a biopic about Tatums life as a stripper. Not YOUR grips to the stripper joint with hairy men that you love. Tatum stripped for women in Miami. Not some joint in liberal NY or LA.
Steven Soderbergh doing Showgirls? Way to insult an oscar winning director. You did see the Girl Experience right? Verhoven who did Showgirls was known in the past for fun tacky films like Basic Instinct. Steven is known in the past for Traffic. Why the comparison?
I understand that Andy has NEVER posted anything that the actors say about this movie-which says it all-but from Manganiello to Bomer the other day, they have said this is dark and closer to Boogienights. But what do they know? Menopausal gay men on a blog have the ins!
Lastly, the first image had Manganiello and McConaughey, so they've had there spotlight but didn't have Bomer nor Rodriguez, so quit crying, most of us figured they would show snippets of the others in time.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
