Hollywood has slowly changed from manly men in the lead to feminine men in lead rolls. There are no more John Wayne's, Clarke Cable's, George Kennedy's, Sean Connery's, etc any more. All of the younger leading men now, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Johnny Depp, etc. You could slap a wig, high heels and some lip stick on them and have a sexy leading women. Non of the old Hollywood leading men could pull this off.
I think allot of the younger male movie goers see these younger stars and make attempts emulate them.
The interesting part of this is that the few manly men left can get together and make the Expendable movies and make good money. That just tells me that people a starving for real men in the movies, not feminized males.
I totally agree. I call it the prep school boys doing action flick leading male roles. It's like Hollywood doesn't even attempt to find blue collar type male actors anymore. UGH!
