Whither Charles Bronson? Used to be a lot of tough-looking actors. Even the wimpy actors were square-jawed straight-arrow studs. Now, Christian Bale is Batman? Robin, okay, but Batman? A step up from Michael Keaton, but still pretty pathetic. However, that pendulum do swing, and "metrosexual" has joined "ebonics" and "political correctness" in the category of once-meaningful terms that now only serve as tired one-liners. (Not sure it was ever anything but, really...) The new James Bond is tough enough to eat Pierce Brosnan on toast (whose name sounds like a dish in a French restaurant, now that I think of it), Benicio Del Toro is the Wolfman, and even Danny Trejo's getting leads. Not exactly Lee Marvin territory, but we'll see. Posted Monday, April 02, 2007
