Hollywood is obsessed with the young and beautiful these days. I am not complaining as I firmly believe that a daily dose of eye candy is beneficial for the body and soul. Still, I think Hollywood sometimes misses the point: hotness and youth are not inextricably linked. Contrary to popular opinion, some celebs get better with age. While there are boatloads of women who fit into this category, it’s the weekend so I think we deserve to indulge in a hot old man fest!
Harrison Ford was my first crush as Han Solo. Who knew that his trademark grin would get even sexier? Practice makes perfect, and years of practice has indeed wielded perfection.

@Ali: Hugh Grant was a bad boy in “American Dreamz” and “About A Boy”, and both movies are well worth watching.

Hugh Grant was also the bad boy in ‘An Awfully Big Adventure’. Except it wasn’t so much a ‘bad boy’ character as it was “Wow, it is actually possible to hate Hugh Grant. I really want something bad to happen to the jerk that he’s playing” character.

What about Leonardo DiCaprio? He’s not old by any means, but he gets better and better looking every year. Smokin’ hot!

Lady who got better with age - Susan Sarandon.
Rocky Horror = eh. Even though she was in her skivvies almost the whole time, not very exciting.
The Banger sisters = sex on cracker, chicky baby.

I agree with most of the list including colin firth, he’ll always be Mr. Darcy to me.
John Cusack needs to be on this list though.

The real problem with creating this list was deciding where the “old” list began. Some people thought Sean Connery was still super sexy and someone said that Brad Pitt was old!!! This is a very subjective list and sadly many hotties were left out. Would anyone be interested in a part 2?

Well, “age” does not mean old, right, just the spectrum of “time” leveled on one’s face over any given period. Age ≠ old, just older by comparison to the same younger self. So, no need for the AARP version or part deux, if that’s what you’re thinking, Ali.
Also, I love how these guys are allowing more gray hair into their image. Pierce is my favorite, altho, he’s got that “beige man-hair-dye” that looks off. Be your Bond-ebony or silver-fox self, Pierce.
