Every chef that I know often punches significantly above their weight in the looks department. People like good food and being able to make good food makes people more attractive.

He only made the movie, so he had a way to get paid to eat mexican food.

I've thought he was attractive for decades. He's funny, sweet, creative, what's not to like. And not to brag but I've been rather good looking in my day
IceWeaselX
But then you ruined your chances with him by marrying Iron Man.
mrsdowneyjr
Except iron Man is dead now and happy is single....

I am objectively mega-hot. I also happen to think smart funny pudgy hairy Italian men are hot. We have range y'all

Sometimes this is fine and other times you have Quentin Tarantino.

Women don't rate looks as highly as us. Luckily.

I dunno. If you can make good food for a woman, she'll like you more. Good food and not being a dickhead will go a long way for you.

Don't forget Joseph Gordon-Levitt. He wrote, directed and starred in the film Don Jon (2013). And who did he make out with in this film? Scarlett Johansson. xD
JasonThorn
A sport car doesn't make a profit of $35 million, so maybe he was on to something...
VinnyVeritas
Yes, but don't you want your chef to have excellent taste ?
historymemesandstuff
Or maybe since he's the main character we're seeing them through his eyes which is why they're so gorgeous. Ever thought of that?
klean9
When I was a college student I was involved in some biomedical research for credit. The researchers always talked about doing research involving sea urchins and porpoises because you’d be working in nice warm, ocean environments
enderite
To be fair, he was an up and coming star chef in a popular LA restaurant.
Thats when he was with scarlet.. and didn’t get Sofia very sea back until he was a success again.
But ya know also as Mel brooks once said. “It’s good to be the king.”
enderite
That was an autocorrect murder of Sofia Vergara*

"Autocorrect murder" LOL I'm stealing that!

Every time I see him, I think "the dude from Swingers? Okay...."
"Haven't you seen Boyz N the Hood? Now one of us is going to get shot."
Bigemedic
Joseph Gordon-Levitt had the same idea in "Don Jon"
imyourrealdad
If I was writing a movie for myself to star in, I think Scarjo would be my live interest too.
Bigemedic
Not terrible. But it was probably better/more entertaining if you worked in food service.

I really enjoyed it.
Bigemedic
I did too, I was working it kitchens when it came out
derpman4k
Hey, have you guys seen the movie Chef?
IndependenceHallPhiladelphiaPA
women love men who can cook. nothing surprising there.
Zunderfeuer
I have yet to see someone confess their love for me and I am by far not terrible as a cook
LordHosk
I have found that women love men who can cook, clean, do laundry, are kind to them and are funny... Much more than "guys who are hott"
"guys who are hott" get dates, guys who are kind and genuine get partners.
Decoyape11
TBH when you work alongside people in high stress environments? You form bonds. The person you are comes out and you see it in others. Also Faveru wants the goods.

It actually is a wholesome movie.
CoqRoq
Honestly one of my favorite feel good movies. Also the soundtrack is banging. If you haven't seen it yet, check out the Chef Show on Netflix. It basically Jon and Roy cooking and talking shit on each other with guest celebrities and chefs.
YouMakeMeWantToBeABetterMan
They never kissed either. Respect.
graehall
It's a genuinely lovely movie and it's cathartic as fuck - apparently in real life it was helpful for him too with his mental health
cannibalthemusical
As a chef who's not much more attractive than him and also has a total 10/10 smoking redhead for a wife the past 18 years, im gonna slap the mythbusters *plausible* brand on it.
khaoselement
At my absolute fucking peak I'm a 6/10. Also had a 10/10 redhead for around five years in my early 20s. Still no idea what made her hate herself that much, but it ruled for me.

Knowing how to cook and having a good personality cover a lot of woes. Comments like this post are just from a bunch of people who think looks are the only thing that matters because their understanding of relationships are that shallow and they have no attractive qualities themselves.
jaecyk10
The truly funny thing is people thinking most Chefs cook at home regularly. After back to back to back 12 hour shifts, the most I'm doing is microwaving something and falling asleep halfway through eating it.
Razade
As someone who has been in the food service for almost 30 years. I don't think that. The fact remains that when I do want to cook for my loved ones, I bring the heat and it's got me more ass than I'm going to relate on some silly social media board.

jethroismaxbaer5772
It could be that he's a really good chef. People get attached to that.
TeddyBruhsvelt
So true. The idea that it's weird for someone to be with someone else because they are perceived to be more physically attractive (which is subjective to begin with, my 10 would be someone elses 5) is so bloody teenage. Just be nice to her (genuinely nice not performatively/transactionally nice), take a real interest in who she is and the things that matter to her and make her laugh regularly. In my experience that's enough to maintain a good relationship with most women (romantic or platonic)
5thAveSmugglerForHire
Its true that attractiveness is entirely subjective. However then there are just some truly, hideously ugly, unattractive people in the world. They are not rich, or funny to make up for this fact. I know this because I am one of those people. No amount of being nice can help if no one else can stand even looking in your general direction.

I've got yer personality right here! *grabs crotch*... But that explains why i don't have women in my life

TBF with how many movies he's done with ScarJo you would have to assume they're on decent terms. Like its not as though she took a huge paycheck for this movie and its not like she lacks for star power.
guyanesebro420
See Matt Damon's 'How you like them apples' -Good Will Hunting also

How about that scene in Ironman 2 where Scar Jo had to wrap his head in a leg lock?

You'd think so, but I got sad news for ya'.
MrGubbmintMan
I really enjoyed it - it's a good vibes movie for me.
chefsoda
As a chef, it’s surprisingly accurate in the food parts of the movie, and generally enjoyable
dragoonwraith
The guy he got to train him for the role was extremely serious about not wanting to be embarrassed to have other chefs see his name on the film. Favreau also took an interest and got pretty into cooking. They had a pretty decent food show on... Netflix, I wanna say? I am very much not a chef so I can’t judge the cooking but I can say it was fun, at least.
chefsoda
Yeah, that was Roy Choi. He’s not going to win a congeniality contest, but he’s a skilled chef and came up with his own food trucks. Faverau did really get into cooking and his Netflix show also starred Choi who wandered with him, cooking with celebrities. It didn’t last long, I’d say because it was a mix of two very different things, the celebrity blah-blah show, and a technical cooking show. I think those two audiences were quite separate.
It was great to see proper cooking in a movie though
unluckyandbored
It's pretty solid.
Sebastopol140
Favreau is no Spielberg but he's a good director. Oh and he (with RDJ and Jeff Bridges) saved the MCU.
jakedafish
Saved star wars’s pathetic showing yet again, by ripping off the Japanese. (Lone wolf & cub) to make the mandalorian, literally pulling their shitty ass out of the fire of even worse movies.
TheRealSauceBoss
Started the MCU. Anything by fox and sony before that doesn't count.
Sebastopol140
Yeah... but also saved, because they had no full script, they improvised almost everything.
TheRealSauceBoss
OK? Saying they "saved" the MCU implies it was an existing thing that had been around for a while, and wasn't doing well until they showed up. It was literally the first unproven film that would lead to the biggest media franchise in history.
buttbuttbutt9
It would be in my top 25 movies, prob not everyone’s but I loved it. When it came out on streaming years ago I watched it alone, my roommate came home later and watched it again with him, girlfriend came over the next day and I watched it again
BigDaddysMeatWagon
It's actually pretty good.
Righteousdew
Are you really on that much of a character budget that you can't type "and," "without," or "at"?
rcgom
why does it bother you? sincerely, why? (& yes, desktop old design limits you to 140 characters)

You seem fun. Who knows what is going on over at their side of the keyboard - maybe they are? What's it to you?

ok i checked: 87% rotten tomatoes, also its got john leguizamo & dustin hoffman
buttbuttbutt9
it’s also got RDJ and a great Russel Peters cameo
SrPootStank
I enjoyed it
DeloresKleinfelder
Ah damn, with those two in it I have to watch it now. Thanks I guess.
imnotinthewitnessprotectionprogram
Plus some damn good cooking scenes. A cameo by RDJ. Oh and there’s an annoying kid too, but he’s only a little annoying because he helps to push the story.
AngurProne
All of the Favreau movies *I've seen* were well put together, and well cast. So he puts himself in his movies. So what. He's believable in the characters he's played. That's *my* definition of good acting. If I don't spend the whole movie going "That's Robert Downey Jr.", and instead immerse and think he's Tony Stark. If you can entertain me and I can forget your RL name. Enjoy the product. Well done. See PSH in "Charlie Wilson's War". He ------ IS ----- Gust Avrokatos. Great character
AngurProne
Also, PSH (Phillip Seymour Hoffman) pretty much CRUSHED every role I've seen (Birdcage) etc. Even more impressive given the heroic levels of Heroin he was doing. Either the directors and acting types gave him slack, or he was acting while acting.

TBF in Click, Adam Sandler's wife is Kate Beckinsale who dated Pete Davidson in real life, so maybe its not that farfetched.

FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
Rob Schneider movies where he acts like a total psychotic and hooks up with a girl young enough to be his daughter.
Heisanevilgenius
I don't watch Rob Schneider movies so I didn't even know this was a thing
FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
I saw a South Park skit of it, I didn't think much of it, then one day I came by my mom watching one of his movies and it was literally him acting like an animal while hooking up with a girl young enough to be his daughter.
Frankasti
Rob Schneider was an Animal. Then he was a woman. And now Rob Schneider is... a stapler!
Arrrrgggggghhhh
Rated PG13
cropduster5000
Yeah fuck that guy
TheBigBadBonerBiter
The script in Wanda's hand pretty much distilled this trope down to its purest form.
SOLARvsFACISM
I'd recommend watching "Kevin Can Fuck Himself" which is a weird parody of those shows, especially King of Queens.
keyblader1985
It's actually funny because King of Queens is really one of the better shows of that type. While Doug is fat and Carrie is hot, their dynamic isn't nearly as one-sided as the stereotype suggests. Doug is usually a happy and down to earth guy, and Carrie is often grumpy, controlling or opportunistic.
strippermagician
Man that show was a surprise. Almost didn't make it through the first episode because of the sitcom parts but I'm super glad I stayed with it.
EstoyPoopis
Dot
keyblader1985
I don't get why people complain about stuff like that, when funny guys get smokeshow partners all the time in real life. Including Adam Sandler.
pleaseuseotherdoor
As a funny ugly woman, I feel justified in complaining a reasonable amount about this trope. Plus the trope where I am either a lesbian tertiary character with mediocre oneliners or I end up with the weirdest male character every imagined who secretly harbors a stalker-esk obsession with the way-out-of-his-league leading lady, but settles for me.
keyblader1985
Don't get me started on those. Hollywood tends to just plain not like women who aren't conventionally attractive, outside of comedic or very specific roles.
Atomic2
Kate Beckinsale -> Pete Davidson. Case closed. Coincidentally, Kate Beckinsale played opposite Sandler in Click.
talldean
Pete has had a string of girlfriends in such a way where you gotta assume he’s funny, makes women feel good about themselves, and likely is unusually well hung, all at the same time.
