My girlfriend thinks Rex is 'dreamy' in this film

We were watching MST3K: THE MOVIE, as a kid Alice said she used to like old sci-fi films, so I thought I could show her MST3K. And of course she said Rex was dreamy in THIS ISLAND EARTH. And to add insult to injury she asked why men aren't that sexy anymore. I don't quite know what she means.

I was just "ouch."

But she laughed it off so...

Well, he is kinda handsome .... especialy compared to his wormy sidekick.

I'm as hetero as they come and I always thought Rex Reason and his brother Rhoades Reason are what Real Men should look like to women.

The voice sounds so manly it seems almost fake.

I know what you mean. I started watching television movies/shows during the late '60s/early '70s and the Reasons (and others) were the template for what a guy should be. My father had a similar hairstyle and attitude, so that probably had something to do with solidifying that impression upon the young me.

No blah, blah, blah!

Yes, Rex Reason was gorgeous and sexy.

Laugh while you can, Monkey Boy!
