I mean... Cate Blanchett... 'Nuff said.

[–] CptHacke@lemm.ee 13 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Strangely, she's never done it for me. Great actress, just...not physically appealing to me at all. I kind of wish they would have chosen someone else for that role, honestly. I'm probably the only one in the world who feels this way, but....there it is. :P

Huh, yeah very interesting. I've had a crush on her since Fellowship, Benjamin Button, and her role as Hela in Thor Ragnarok made me swoon for sure lol

Multiple times I've told people I think she's the most beautiful woman I've seen on screen.

Nah, I'm with you here. She's not ugly or anything, just not my type.

Only as (Mommy) Hela did she do it for it.

No, I wondered why they had her so plain. Honestly, a lot of the elf casting was weird.

She's has this otherworldly beauty that when you're thinking about her it's like "yea she's beautiful" but it doesn't elicit any other feeling. Taylor Swift and Charlize Theron elicit the same feelings from me.

Girl Next Door kind of pretty on the other hand...

same here. Great actress, average looks.

Where do you live that the women you see every day make Cate Blanchett the "average"?!

[–] DosDude@retrolemmy.com 3 points 1 month ago

She doesn't do it for me either, but in no world is this woman average. She is definitely objectively beautiful. Just not my jam.
