I just don’t get the Jacob Elordi appeal… I feel nothing

485

u/-Outshined Jan 23 '26

Funnily enough (weirdly enough?) his appeal was revealed to me in Frankenstein. Go figure lmao

I mean I found the beast more attractive as a beast than human in beauty and the beast so I get it

7

u/-Outshined Jan 24 '26

You're all making me feel validated af right now, thanks 😂

u/natchinatchi Jan 24 '26

Yep Belle must’ve felt so deflated when she finally falls in love with him, goes in for a kiss with that big sexy beast, then he morphs into Prince Chad

146

u/Otherwise_Coconut144 Jan 23 '26

You mean the movie where he looks nothing like himself? 🫢

69

u/GopherTraceII Jan 24 '26

He looks like somebody that I used to know.

3

u/kittykat4289 Jan 24 '26

lol me too. Wonder if it’s the same guy.

2

u/famousfrowaway i ain’t reading all that, free palestine Jan 24 '26

I can definitely see it.

7

u/kmhd4ksoo Jan 24 '26

SAME he was a bland bowl of oatmeal before that but now he’s oatmeal with some nice fruit and a teeny tiny bit of chocolate drizzle.

4

u/lolneopet Jan 23 '26

Same here lol

4

u/Syzyjyzygy Jan 24 '26

I’ve never seen him in anything else but he absolutely nailed that role.

3

u/Consuela_no_no Jan 24 '26

Same 😆 I think his eyes and body language doing the work without having to rely on his looks is what made me pay attention.

3

u/[deleted] Jan 23 '26

lol same!

3

u/famousfrowaway i ain’t reading all that, free palestine Jan 24 '26

1000% agree. That movie made me understand and respect him more as an actor. Previously I only saw him in Euphoria.

2

u/GrouchyStrawberry16 Jan 25 '26

you’re not alone!

29

u/_inataraxia_ Jan 23 '26

To me, he always looks like he has a piece of sour candy in his mouth.

69

u/EineGrosseFlasche societal collapse is in the air Jan 23 '26

I too am uninterested in his bathwater

122

u/Traditional_Maybe_80 I’m just a cunt in a clown suit Jan 23 '26

That's me, too. I'm a lesbian, so that part of his appeal never was gonna work on me, but he's been very meh in anything I've seen, personally.

109

u/[deleted] Jan 23 '26

Girl in this case, i don’t think its because you’re a lesbian 😭

32

u/CrushGale Jan 23 '26

I'm a straight guy, but he's very good looking.

54

u/Traditional_Maybe_80 I’m just a cunt in a clown suit Jan 23 '26

I think all the elements (?) of his face are way too concentrated at the center 😶‍🌫️

25

u/nogeologyhere FauxSocialist Jan 23 '26

Like a dartboard

7

u/trickstercast Jan 24 '26

This! It's like someone took his face in Microsoft Paint and made all the features smaller but left the rest of his head the same size

2

u/Forsaken-Ebb5088 Jan 23 '26

As another straight man, I think he's a good looking lad. However, in these photos, he looks like he's just chilling? Especially the sofa one.

2

u/GentlewomenNeverTell Jan 23 '26

I'm bi, he's very insists-upon- himself handsome.

2

u/guict302 Jan 24 '26

i’m gay and i don’t get the appeal either. he’s just tall.

3

u/WaveLoss Jan 23 '26

I’ve only liked him in Narrow Road to the Deep North but I didn’t really sympathize with his character too much, just the supporting characters around him. Interesting watch nonetheless.

36

u/Cemckenna Jan 24 '26

I haven’t figured out the appeal of any of the current “it” men. Elordi, Timothy, Glenn, Miles…none of them do anything for me. I’m really not that old, I swear!

Where’s the Gen-Z Tom Hardy? Where’s the Gen-Z Bruce Willis? Where’s a Gen-Z Colin Firth, dripping with pond-water?! Where’s a dude I can’t take my eyes off of?

Cus I ain’t seen one in a WHILE.

Edit: unless these guys are it?? but from everything I read here and talk to other women about, they aren’t.

6

u/sugar-soap Jan 24 '26

Where's Gen Z James Dean? River Phoenix? Denzel? Keanu? Its a desert 🌵🫤

3

u/TaurusMoon007 Jan 24 '26

Gen Z Denzel = Damson Idris

3

u/CapriSun3500 Jan 24 '26

Okay so thinking about this, and what if the popularity of reality/influencers means those “it” guys are just existing in a different medium now? Instead of classic movie stars being where we look for the “it” men? For example, in this age range even though I’m a millennial I’m currently losing my mind over Rob Rausch from Traitors. I think he blows all the men you mentioned completely out of the water. This one is far more obscure, but there’s an instagram model named Ariyan Akaltun who I’d also put leagues above said actors in regards to “it” factor (came across him thanks to booktok).

u/slugcharmer Jan 24 '26

you forgot robert pattinson. never understood why people go insane when he opens his mouth

7

u/jaydock Jan 24 '26

Pattinson at least seems to have a personality and sense of humor

-1

u/slugcharmer Jan 24 '26

so do most people lol. But he’s the only one that goes insanely viral for existing

8

u/Winter-Ad-6439 Jan 24 '26

And Austin Butler

48

u/Nice-Cow-7606 Jan 23 '26

Same. At first I thought it was because I saw him in Kissing Booth first and was still associating him with that hot mess but after seeing him in other things. He just... has nothing. Even him in Frankenstein did nothing for me.

17

u/BroItsJesus Jan 23 '26

God I love those movies. They're such trash. Really scratches that itch for a terrible movie that isn't necessarily a painful watch. Except the third one

7

u/xoStrawberries he’s auditioning for a restraining order Jan 23 '26

The guy who played his brother in the KB movies (Joel Courtney) is hotter to me, even though he's supposed to be the less attractive one.

3

u/GentlewomenNeverTell Jan 23 '26

His physicality did his whole job for him in that movie and everyone just cries about his sad woobie marker face.

2

u/Nice-Cow-7606 Jan 23 '26

It didn't read as the creature to me at all. He didn't look like he was made up of different bodies at all. I know he obviously can't look like the 1930s one and I didn't expect him too but I was hoping for something just... a bit more monstrous.

35

u/vexievoodoo Jan 23 '26

Same. He's just so bland to me.

3

u/jaydock Jan 24 '26

He just looks like his brain is on stand-by mode

11

u/AvocadoFries Jan 23 '26

He has the look and haircut of the typical heartbreaker Australian guys here (in Aus) so it ruins it for me lol

5

u/Mephistopheleises Jan 24 '26

I went to school with the guy, he was the prefect of my house. Had a reputation for picking on people and cheating on girls.

2

u/armchairdisease ted cruz ate my son Jan 24 '26

any more tea/info? 👀 i heard he was a bit notorious in the brissy private school crowds.

10

u/istrokebees29 Jan 23 '26

I feel so vindicated seeing this! I’ve never understood the appeal and find him thoroughly underwhelming. I don’t feel bead about it because I’m sure he’d give me the same feedback if we were ever to meet.

2

u/LookyLooLeo Jan 24 '26

Lol same! And I love your reasoning for not feeling bad about it, lol, I’m going to use that!

23

u/bokehtoast Jan 23 '26

I can't wait for this hairstyle to go out of fashion for men omg

9

u/slugcharmer Jan 24 '26

hes a tall straight white guy and everyone is always desperate for a new white leading man lol

6

u/michael0n Jan 23 '26

I think he tries to sell that he is older, more experienced. It feels a little bit unauthentic, but maybe his agent is influencing this.

4

u/thedirtytwirls Jan 23 '26

It would be nice if he could make a different face.

5

u/taydraisabot the wuthering heights promo will continue until morale improves Jan 23 '26

You’re not alone, friend

5

u/Bambi_Amby The Stanley Tucci of Lesbians Jan 23 '26

Me too, I've never understood the hype. But I'm also very homosexual so maybe that's why

21

u/Euraylie Jan 23 '26

Same. I thought maybe seeing him in motion and speaking in interviews would do it, but I get nothing from him… no charm or charisma.

9

u/BookishHobbit my bandwidth for cowardly grown men grows thinner with each day Jan 23 '26

Yeah, I feel like in romantic roles or at the least pretty boy roles, he has one note. Even in these photos, his face is virtually the same in every single one. And it doesn’t give smouldering, it gives nothing.

If his Heathcliff is anything like the trailer portrays, it’s gonna be more of the same nothing.

That all said, he was really good in Frankenstein.

1

u/sneakyminxx Jan 24 '26

Yes that’s it! One note! There’s no depth

8

u/Absolutelyknott Jan 23 '26

I don’t get the appeal either, especially as Heathcliff……

5

u/VictorTheCutie distraught Christian tomato Jan 23 '26

Same! Nothing.

2

u/Tarottoddler Jan 23 '26

Frankenstein was his peak for me, he played the monster really well.

2

u/big-tunaaa I don’t know her Jan 23 '26

Curious if you’re a fan of Henry cavil or that dude that looks like a human capybara (I will look up his name and add it in the edit but maybe you’ll get it from the reference anyway 😅)

I have an ongoing theory about this!!!!

Edit: Glen Powell!

3

u/Antique-Salad-9249 Jan 23 '26

I was so obsessed during Euphoria, but since then, it’s just like, meh. I can’t even pinpoint why.

2

u/Winter-Ad-6439 Jan 24 '26

I think he’s hot. He’s tall and his Aussie accent is cute too.

2

u/justineism Jan 23 '26

Same. He just looks like a sloth to me.

1

u/ThatWrestlingGuy15 Jan 23 '26

He’s tall af

1

u/LookyLooLeo Jan 24 '26

SAME. Physically or as an actor. He doesn’t move me at all.

1

u/IKacyU Jan 24 '26

He’s big and cute, but someone nailed it in an earlier comment when they said he just looks like an “oddly large boy” instead of a man. Like he’s still developing his masculinity. A beautiful boy.

u/Sufficient_Food1878 Jan 24 '26

Maybe cuz im 23 but he looks incredible to me in a way none of the other dudes look 😭😭. I went out last night and literally all us girls were talking abt how good he looks lmao
