When you go to the movies..
« on: May 25, 2010, 08:05:21 PM »
Ever notice how all the bald guys are either the bad guys or the creepy jerks? (Flash Gordon, that one sleaze bag in Requiem, Xerxes in 300) are just a few examples i can think off the top of my head, but there are countless more.

Well, the one example that quickly came to mind when I read this thread is the first Iron Man movie.
There were only two bald dudes in the movie, and both were villians....the leader of the terrorist group, and Jeff Bridges character Obediah Stain.

Eh, bad guys come in all shapes, sizes, nationalities, and hairstyles.

Water off a duck's back.


Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

I think this is where people get  the view that bald = skinhead or evil. Once again the media potrays something and people beliee.  :-\
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the Past better than it was,
the Present worse than it is & the future less resolved than it will be.

Exactly!  And Samuel Jackson in the Star Wars Prequels  And don't forget Vin Diesel. Heck all the good guys were bald in the Matrix.  I'm sure I forgot one.  There are plenty of long haired bad guys like Whiplash in Iron Man 2.
