I'm amazed by the fact that some of them haven't aged at all...i.e. Will Smith, Freddie Prinze Jr., Mario Lopez and Joshua Jackson. Hello, amazing genes!

@Bettye Wayne Mmmmmmm...Brenden Fraser. Him and Patrick Dempsey in With Honors = Amazing! (Yes I am the 1 person that voted for Patrick in the before catagory, though its a close one. Both Patricks are extremely hot, just in different ways now. Early Patrick is hot in a "beautiful" type way. The curly hair gets me. It's amazing on him. Older Patrick is hot in a George Clooney way.). As for the majority of the guys, they look pretty much exactly the same, so there's no way to really vote. Mario Lopez, James Van der beek, Joshua Jackson, Jimmy Fallon, Will Smith, Ashton, Freddie Prinze, even Ryan Reynolds...so many of those guys look EXACTLY the same, just with more facial hair or maybe thicker face. And some pics were just unfair-that now Brad Pitt pic couldnt have been a worse recent pic. While I am of the camp of him being hotter then, if he'd get rid of that horrible beard, my opinion may be drasically different. I LOVE beards on men. Actually I prefer a beard, but Brad is not the beard type-a full beard, maybe, but that goatee shit is awful. I hate goatees anyway, but that one is particularly bad. Unkept and gross . With that said-there are still pics of him with it that aren't so bad. Same with Val Kilmer, Ben Affeck (really? There's a ton of better recent pics of him and you use one really bad candid shot). The "Booo my favorite hot guy changed directions" bias is showing..lol. Actually in the cases of Ben and Jared Leto-both pics are terrible pics of them to begin with. Wow, this turned out long. My apologizes. My really long point being, on about 80% of these, it's impossible to judge.

I voted mostly for "now" on all the guys. They have all aged so well...except Sean Penn, who's always been butt ugly in my estimation.

On a few of these there really needs to be a "neither" option!

I think many of them look better "Now", especially George Clooney and Jon Stewart

No Henry Cavill??? Who is now officially my Patron Saint of Hotness so I'll just keep promoting him on every poll and article about supposed hot guys!

i agree, mamasita...i chose almost all "now"...i mean, most of them i found hot then, as well, but i guess my own aging has made me realize how much like boys most of them looked in the younger photos

And Brendan Fraser? I always thought he was so hot and he still is.

There definitely needed to be an "ewwwwwww" button. I must have the same daddy complex as you mama, I think there were one or two I voted 'then' on.Why the fuck is Pierce Brosnon not on here?
