- uuddlrlrbaba 4y agoWhat is it about if not looking angry?
- P5fRxh5kUvp2th 4y agolooking unapproachable while having no facial expressions. Some people just look like assholes, it doesn't imply they look angry.
- dceddia 4y ago> Some people just look like assholes Something I wonder about is how much of an effect movies and TV have had on what we generally consider to be mean-looking or friendly-looking traits. I don’t know which way the cause-and-effect goes though. Do we instinctively as humans think that people who look a certain way give off an “evil” vibe, and that’s why Hollywood chooses actors with those faces? Or have they trained us that certain faces are “evil” because they’re always typecast as bad guys? One random example: when I first saw Kylo Ren in the recent Star Wars trilogy, my first thought was… I bet he’s gonna turn good. His face is too friendly. If he were bad to the core they would’ve picked an evil-looking guy.
