Subject: he's an ageless hunk but sadly Hollywood goes for the demographics -inside

younger female leads with older actors. That was the joke and complaint about Adam Sandler why he is getting older but his female leads are getting younger and younger. It was also the complain and targeted reviews on Sherlock Holmes that McAdams was too young for him even McAdams again with Eric Bana in that Traveller's wife movie. You cant blame fans on comic book movies wanting the man and woman to look right and have chemistry; that was cries on Batman with Bale and Holmes and now Thor with Portman who looks like a high school girl.
Iron Man did right with Paltrow and Downey Jr. & audiences embraced it.
They are listing the possible castings for Bond and Batman and the audiences are outraged its the usual young females like Scarlett,Hathaway,Blake Lively,Arterton when there are amazing older actresses like Eva Green,Naomi Watts,Rachel Weisz,Theron or unknown older good actresses that are right for the parts.

Age and height matters to me. Sure Im entertained but at most times it is distracting. i.e. Big and Carry looked perfect in Sex and the City but that movie Failure to Launch I agree with audiences noticing how old Sarah Jessica Parker was opposite Matthew McConaughhey. Im tired of the demographics excuse because I want guys like DJE,Jon Hamm not Ryan Phillipe,Channing Tatum and other younger boys.

Same in AW Bell's husband onscreen looks so old for her. IMHO.
