Efilated, we're not talking wrinkles here. We're talking weight. Actually, Elwes isn't particularly wrinkledjust bloated.
Isn't it nice to know we can be just as shallow, when talking about male actors?

To the beginner of this thread: So what? Let Hollywood stars, whether great or not, age in
dignitiy
and have the
integrity
to be kind because, honestly, today's teen generation is saying worse things about you and your generation. Don't get offended that I'm trying to be cruel, but I do know this - I've overheard my brother's conversations with his friends and it's not nice at all.
Show some respect. Honestly.
EMETIB.
Now reverse it. -

I still think he's as attractive as ever. So what he's gained a few pounds. He still has a young face for being around 45 years old. And this is coming from a 16 year old girl. He a good looking man. And you can always lose a few pounds.
Ooh, see that, there. Who needs affection when I have blind hatred?

Having seen Cary Elwes last night in
Georgia Rule
, I feel pretty sure that it's not age that's made his face look so bad, it's just a moderate amount of weight gain. He actually looks young for someone in his mid forties; but he's clearly one of those people who gain weight in their face quickly, so that he simply can't afford to be even a few pounds overweight if he wants his face to look good at all.
That said, I thought that in
Georgia Rule
his appearance was actually quite appropriate to his character of a self-absorbed, obnoxious, somewhat nerdy wealthy trial lawyer. I can see a person like that getting pudgy and not realizing or caring how off-putting his appearance was beginning to be. Perhaps Cary can rationalize this episode in his life as a Robert De Niro
Raging Bull
-style exercise in weight gain for a part, and proceed to slim down so as to once again become the exemplar of yuppie suavity and stylishness that he used to be. -

"I can see a person like that getting pudgy and not realizing or caring how off-putting his appearance was beginning to be."
So you think someone with some extra weight is offensive looking? You must get in a lather just walking around in public and seeing all the chubs daring to show their fat little faces. -

i'm still in love with him, even the older him. robin hood:men in tights is still one of my all time favorite movies- and although, true, he's changed a lot what do you expect? men don't try to perserve their youth like women do.

hmm.. Can't deny that I think he looks hot no matter what.. Fit, chubby, bad style or good style. He always sweeps my feet away!! And come on; there's tons of other male actors, who's gained waight too(more even) and has begun to look badder. Cary still got that boyish smirk and enchanting eyes.. And I actually quite like it when his body is a little soft
You're my hero. I agree with everything you said, especially the "boyish mark and enchanting eyes." Couldn't have said it better myself.
