My issue is not with the aging exactly , its more she has lost her sparkle

Arnold Schwarzenegger
Van Dam
Sly Stallone
Bruce Willis

Basically my action hero Gods. Seeing them age makes them seem so mortal. I grew up thinking these bad motherfuckers couldn't possibly be killed by anything. *sigh*

The worst part is that his voice is almost gone. I was lucky enough to see him with the other Zeppelin members in London in 2007, and he could still hit some of the high notes. But recent performances from the last year or two are dramatically worse.

In his prime, this man was one of the best rock singers ever.

I always blame kids. Always. Can't tell you how many cute girls I remember back in highschool who look like major downgrades after having kids.

What's really fucked is some of the girls I didn't even look at are better looking now. Guess what hasn't popped out of their bodies yet?

Seriously, fuck kids.

Britney Spears looks damn good. You have to keep in mind that she had a mental breakdown and a child.
Yeah she does, but look at the smile and eyes. she has a deer in headlights look about her now. 2 children btw :p
There was another comparison done with the same imaged but had britney photoshopped with better make up and fixed eyebrows

That is supposed to happen. Women also generally age worse than men do. This is nature. It's also why you'll routinely see men leave their wives for younger women.

Are females biologically predisposed to physically aging more rapidly in order to encourage males to leave and have more offspring with younger females? And do older males remain more handsome and fertile in order to conceive more offspring? And are younger females more likely to be attracted to older males for this same purpose? Do we all just come down to baby making?

The answer is "yes" to all of those questions.

You've gotta be trolling. Clint looks remarkably good for being nearly 82, and Christopher Lee is in character in both of those pictures and would have been about the same age Clint is now when the Saruman picture was taken. Dracula is 90 years old.... yeesh.

Yes. Some people look better when they're older.

That Christopher Lee photo was taken at The Hobbit set last year so he's 89 in that.

He also looked quite healthy in Hugo:

All three of these guys are still kicking ass, but they're all over 50 (Sammo is 60). There will come a point when they can't perform anymore. Same goes for Yuen Wah, too.

Eh, her eyes focus the wrong way by 2mm and it looks "spaced." Finding a picture where a famous person is fake smiling is about as hard as finding a politician making a lie.

In high school, I was a chubby little tomboy. I always dressed like Kurt Cobain, with XXX large anime shirts. Never wore makeup, always had this weird scruffy bowl hair cut. I never had a boyfriend. I never had guys look twice at me. I used those awkward years to develop a personality and my interests in art.

I'm 25 now.

Some people just bloom late. Those girls that are cute in high school tend to burn out quickly, whether or not they have kids.
Although I'm damn thankful I don't have any.
 
Clint Eastwood was an awesome looking young man who just oozed charisma. Now look at him. He's an awesome looking old man who oozes charisma, and won't lose the fire in his eyes until his dying breath

He doesn't actually look that bad either. The picture in this thread has the contrast jacked to 100.

You look like that villain from G.I Joe.
 

VOOK

We don't know why he keeps buying PAL, either.
Every one ages, but this makes me a sad as I've met him and he's a champ;

Macgyver, Jack O'Niell himself; Richard Dean Anderson.

I guess they won't really be Dragons Forever then.

I don't know about most of these, a lot of the dudes look great and have done great work except Schwarzeneggar and Anderson. Also save britney everything has been "I used to fap to this chick and then she got old"


Holy shit, he went full Alec Baldwin :(

More of a Val Kilmer than anything IMO

speaking of which....

I know what you mean. This is a perfect example of her looking like she either doesn't want to be there, or she's on a shit ton of painkillers: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yi6dUlFp-sA. But no one else sees it for some reason...
