People magazine and most of America backs us up, too. <br /><br />I don't know what this says about my looks, by the way. :\ <br /><br />Though it weakens my argument, I must stand up for Glory - great Denzel 80s flick there, though 1989 shouldn't count, if you ask me. ;)Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-23333195835763792202010-04-06T13:53:15.945-07:002010-04-06T13:53:15.945-07:00She's one of the few women to not think Ford w...She's one of the few women to not think Ford was hot in the 80's then. Even myself (being a completely straight male) would admit Ford was quite handsome in the 80's. But I'll give you the point that Ford's filmography is no comparison to anyone else on this list in the 80's, it's better than all of their films combined! Denzel may not have been in anything overly campy, but he also wasn't in anything remotely good or memorable so I'll accept it.Snipeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084449549914572738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-48905402201280857282010-04-06T13:25:35.567-07:002010-04-06T13:25:35.567-07:00Ford was intentionally left out for a few reasons....Ford was intentionally left out for a few reasons. First, Mrs. Fletch has never found him the least bit attractive. Second, he's much older than any of the other contestants, or at the least, seemed a lot older. Third, though it might not have been explicitly stated, in both these tourneys, I'm trying to encapsulize the same kind of teenage/crappy 80s nostalgia that Hot Tub Time Machine picked up on. Prestige actors and films need not apply, and Ford certainly wasn't in any of those flicks.<br /><br />Of course, Denzel wasn't either. But he's better looking. That or it's affirmative action FTW. ;)Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-859290034031232542.post-85763163126808386412010-04-06T13:07:57.414-07:002010-04-06T13:07:57.414-07:00There's no Harrison Ford in this competition!?...There's no Harrison Ford in this competition!?! Denzel didn't have much of a career in the 80's. Harrison Ford's greatest films were in the 80's!
