Kurt Russel VS Patrick Swayze


They look enough alike but who will take home the win.

They look a like? I can't see that, and if they ever looked alike they don't anymore. Swayze playing Elvis? No way. I guess this means that KR takes it home...but he had it in the bag over Swayze years ago.

Swayze couldn't have pulled off Captain Ron either.

The real versus question is: Kurt Russell vs. Jeff Bridges...now there is a resemblence there!



I guess I am just a dreamer after all

Kurt Russel 1,000,000 to nothing. Swayze is great and everything, he's major talent and that's all fine and good. But you look at Kurt and he's just got charm, talent, intelligence, beauty, and anything else you can think of oozing from every pore. Many people probably don't realize that the guy has been a major star since he was like 5 years old or so. He was a Disney live action regular back in the late 60s, turning in excellent screen charisma in pictures like Flubber, The Barefoot Executive (lousy movie), The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, etc (I'm just making that list up, I didn't bother to fact check it. My point is that he starred in many of that line of movies). Besides that he is serious athletic talent but was unfortunately sidelined by injury while well on the track to major league baseball. He's 1/2 of one of Hollywood's most glamorous couples (w/Goldie Hawn), and to this day he is still soooooo hunky. His list of credits far outshines Swayze, he sadly doesn't look so good anymore.

Years ago, I used to confused between Kurt Russell and Rowdy Roddy Piper in the movie, they look too dame close.
