The scientists at Silly Lists of Nothingness have been plugging tirelessly away at yet another ridiculous list for your review. This week, Dr. Ruby Lawrence and Dr. Beth Mann spent nearly two hours in the lab, dissecting photographs of hot men in the name of science.

Now, we're not talking about your garden variety Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise. This list include hotties you may forgotten - overlooked hotties, if you will -  as well as historical hotties you didn't know existed in the first place.



Young Chris Walken - interplanetary hottie:




















The late, great and undeniably hot Cleavon Little
(one of Dr. Mann's personal faves):

"Excuse me while I whip this out." - Blazing Saddles


Harry Houdini - magical hottie:


























Jesse James - young, punk-ass hottie:





















Kevin Kline - classic hottie:

Lord Byron - poetic hottie:























Kirk Douglas (Dr. Lawrence made me put him on the list):

Robert Powell as Jesus - this man still looks amazing:














Nathan Hale - still rocking it, even in bronze:



















"I only regret that I have but one life to lose
for my country."


John Larroquette - cozy hottie:




















Chuck Woolery:

Frank Langella as Dracula (maybe not the best
Dracula, but the hottest):

Larry Hagman, the early days - steely-eyed hottie:













Franz Schubert, pre-pudge:

Malcolm X - with a name like that, you have to be a little hot:

Oscar Wilde:


















"It is better to be beautiful than to be good.
But... it is better to be good than to be ugly."


Yul Brenner:

The historically unimportant but undeniably
hot Colonel George Coussmaker. (Who?)

John Cassavetes - old-school New York style hottie:

Louis XIV - pre-syphilis, sporting an early
heavy metal look...literally:

Telly Savalas:

























Tyrone Power, later years:




















Alexander Hamilton on the $10 bill - monetary hottie:












Donald Sutherland:

Malcolm McDowell:




























(above one of the sexiest pictures taken of an actor ever, in
Dr. Mann's opinion.)


The Old Spice Guy - for overall hotness and comic timing:

Thanks to Susan Mihalic and FB's Historical Hotties for input!

Dr. Mann and Dr. Lawrence, busy at work. Shhh...they're
trying to concentrate.
