what is the fascination with him.
he looks like hes been wallking around with 50 pounds of brings on his head which have eventually malformed his skull and squashed it a little bit, his eyebrows dominate everything, he has a wierd nose and i saw this picture of him where his armpit hair was like newton faulkners hair.

Yes, he had two good films that no one saw, Brick & Lookout.
But you know what? Even Ben Affleck had two really good films before he hit it big, Chasing Amy & Good Will Hunting.
JGL's last role was Cobra Commander in G.I. Joe. Can we accept the fact that he's an okay actor who had a short streak of very good indie films, and now will end up like every other actor?
I mean damn, how hard was it to play a high school Sam Spade?

No Anton Yelchin??? He's adorable. He's the right age - unlike most of these guys who are pretty old compared to Cera (Pattinson is the youngest at 23).
Yelchin is actually cute, can actually act, and has already done a movie with Kat Dennings. And I love how I'm listing criteria like this is an actual thing... to be a Hoodie Hearthrob.

Except he's way too talented & versatile of an actor, and will definitely be around long after his Hoodie Heartthrob status is gone.
So, I say Jesse Eisenberg.

Jesse Eisenberg is very likable and has lots of indie credibility, but I just can't bring myself to lust after him. Emile Hirsch is very sexy, but so charismatic that he's a little intimidating. Joseph Gordon-Levitt is cute but boring. Jason Schwartzman is great, but too old. Robert Pattinson is too mainstream. And I don't know who Jon Foster is.
As a girl who lives in American Apparel hoodies and black Converse, I feel qualified to say that these candidates just don't cut it.

I say Eisenberg. He was great in "Squid & Whale" and "Adventurland" and "Rodger Dodger" and I once chatted with him on the street in NYC and he could not have been sweeter. Plus his sister was the Pepsi kid with the curly hair way back in the day.
Schwartzman is ancient.

Yeah, claiming that it's 1999 doesn't sound quite so inept now, does it?

I did interview them both at various stages of their young careers, and still can't decide. They're both such wonderful young actors. Are we allowed to root for both?

It is really, painfully obvious you haven't seen the amazing "Brick", or you wouldn't have written anything so silly.
