The Joe Biden Presidency I :: Hallelujah!

When and how was Cesar Romero a masculine icon? I know him as a dude wearing an amount of makeup that would embarrass a drag queen.

Great article on the subject.

 

Because that was the only character he ever played.

He most certainly never played famous cowboy characters like Doc Holliday or the Cisco Kid a half dozen times or so.

edit: Coincidentally, Heath Ledger also played a cowboy and wore a lot of makeup in another role "that would embarrass a drag queen".

 

He had over 200 tv and movie roles in his career going back to the 1930's. He was way more than the Joker from Batman.

 

Yeah, but some of those were playing the leading man to noname's like Marlene Deitrich, Carmen Miranda and Betty Grable. Personally, in addition to Batman I best remember him from his reoccurring role in Riptide from the mid 80s.

 

I'd be pretty surprised if the average person in this forum knows him for anything else.

Maybe I'm wrong.

 

He was the Cisco Kid.

Also in "The Thin Man" and "Ocean's Eleven." And every tacky TV show ever except maybe "Fantasy Island" and "Love Boat..."

 

According to Wikipedia, he was in Fantasy Island 4 times and Love Boat 3 times.

 

O K, then, every tacky TV show.

Come to think of it I wouldn't have seen enough of either to know...

 

That’s why I said average. You’re really old, plus you know everything anyway.

 

To bring this conversation back to the topic at hand, Caesar Romero was 87 when we died.

If Biden is reelected and serves his full term, he will be 85 when he leaves office.

 

Nuffin wrong with 85.

 

Speaking from experience?

 

Erm, well.

 

A well lived 85, and a qualified VP, so I’m not so worried.

Trump would be 82 and he looks like crap at 76, not to mention that his VP could be Ms. Florida, Rafael, or even some lunatic threepercenter type.

 

Absolutely.

 

Nor am I at this point.

 

I'm thinking MTG is even a strong possibility - he'd prefer her to DeSantis or Cruz in my mind, given she has been much more loyal over the years. Remember, he won't care if they are qualified, only if they worship him.

 

MTG - VP
Gaetz - ICC chair
Boebert - ATF
Goehmert - Secretary of Education
Lindsey - 4 star general of Space Force
Roger Stone - Bureau of Prisons

 

Big personality, mediocre actor.

 

GAWD you are so uncultured at times...

Some of us doubled down and ditched our english comp requirements by taking film classes AND chasing that big titty Tri-Delt that could lift a beer in cleavage to her mouth simply by shrugging her shoulders

Yes, but it's only in the last 3 years that Drag Queens became powerful enough to emasculate suburban CISYT men...

Somedays, it's like you're that kind of old that thinks nothing happened before them

And if you think he wasn't a "masculine hero" of his generation...

​

He was Cuban

See, the thing is thinking that you're average - that's being really generous to yourself...

Now, you need to divorce yourself from the current ideal of (toxic & fantasy) masculinity that started more or less in Hollywood with a certain population of the Boomers pretending that Vietnam didn't ******** them all up and that if they had actually been in combat in the 'Nam and not dodging the draft, they would have totally ********ed up Charlie, and the ChiComs and the Russkies and the Drug Cartels and then the Muslim Terrorists and every other bogeyman caricature for the last 40 ********ing years

 

Actually, most of these people I didn't know anything about. Not Cary Grant or Cesar Romero (I always thought of him as The Joker). I knew about rock Hudson because he was the first publicized AIDS victim I recall, and Clift for some reason. The rest are just names from B&W TV.
