CS-OscarNomsShirtlessTH.jpg For those of you who aren't already making menus and sampling There Will Be Blood Orange Martini recipes for your uber-gay Oscar party, we bring you the following gratuitous shots mined from the nets. We're sticking to the men, because that's what we prefer around here.  Ladies, we love your work, but you're going to have to do better than Cate Blanchett doing her drag king Bob Dylan in Todd Haynes' I'm Not There to get us feature you naked anytime soon.  After the jump, our favorite half-naked photos of this year's male acting nominees.
(Warning: Most of these people are getting old and these photos/ screengrabs are from the past.)

Hal Holbrook, Into the Wild

(Yeah, fuck this.  This seemed like a good idea until about now.  We welcome any readers to go ahead and This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it of Hal Holbrook from... whenever. The same goes for Tom Wilkinson.  Otherwise, we're done here. We're going back to looking at Polaroids from the gay porn oscars.)

Actually, Wilkinson offers plenty of available material -- "In the Bedroom" and "The Full Monty" -- and it ain't bad. There's a lot of range to our humanity ....

Viggo Mortensen wins this one HANDS DOWN! (personally, I wish it was "hands on"!). He has the greatest chest ever. His extraordinary physique was displayed clearly enough in Eastern Promises, but they shaved his chest for that roll (to make room for the tattoos, I guess), and that's just a shame. And he looks like that when he is almost 50 years old. He could easily pass for 35!

Viggo is THE MAN, no matter what part you're looking at!
