Remember when Mickey Rourke was hot? Check him out in the photo above from when he made 9 1/2 Weeks with Kim Basinger. Rent the movie. Watch it. Then tell me the dude wasn’t hot. He specialized as the dashing bad boy and never struck me as the type to do whatever he’s done to his face. He seemed to not care about his looks. He was ruggedly handsome and was into boxing and living on the edge. Apparently he cared more than it seemed he did. Then he kind of disappeared from the movie scene for a while. He’s been making a remarkable comeback lately. Just last night he won a Golden Globe for his starring role in The Wrestler and is said to be a contender for an Oscar.

Funny. I saw “9-1/2 Weeks” back in the day, and distinctly remember thinking that Kim was MUCH hotter than he was.

Get “The Pope of Greenwich Village” and watch him and over-the-top Eric Roberts give great performances as neighborhood thugs/losers who try and dodge Mafia vengeance.
How do you take revenge on a waiter? Cut his thumbs off (try balancing a tray now!)

I thought Rourke's acting career was over. Then this morning I see his name scroll by while watching President Bush's press conf!
I hope the pre wrestler Rourke is back..and that he got some of that bizarre plastic surgery dealt with.
I think I'll rent 9 1/2 Weeks again. :)

that's good to know wardaddy!
I'm really glad to see Mickey Rourke back on track. I watched the video interview on the link and it was good hearing from him.
To be honest, I had become embarassed to say I was a fan of his!
