Poll: Who's The Next Patrick Swayze?

Patrick Swayze represented a hard, soft and talented kind of cool. Who can fill his shoes?

Patrick Swayze was a unique kind of masculine. He could dance (clearly), carry a tune and kick butt (if you saw him in Roadhouse or Red Dawn, you know what we're saying). He was so cool that his last name had become slang in the hip-hop community. Heck, Biggie Smalls rapped a line about him. Needless to say, from rappers to women, we were all smitten.

Sorry, but I don't think that was a very good question. I agree with everyone who loved and admired Patrick Swayze. He can't be replaced. Since when were people interchangeable anyway??

Adding twit like Timberlake to the mix made it worse. Swayze had a beautiful soul that shown through in every aspect of his life. Miles and years above someone like JT and most of his current peers in the industry.

Those with true talent, like Hugh Jackman, are their entity and I don't think its fair to stick them beneath the shadow of someone else. They have their own light as well.

Kind of a silly thing! I admit I SO like Hugh Jackman & Gerard Butler for many reasons, they could not replace ANYONE else. We like people for specific reasons, not to replace something that is "missing". The fact is a good guy was lost. We NEED MORE of those in the world PERIOD. Men need to awaken themselves to understand that point! They also need the wisdom of their parents to help them get there! The definition of what a "Man" is needs to be redefined! Patrick helped to do just that in his unique subtle way. Lisa was very fortunate to have such man in her life! If all of us could be so fortunate!

All people no matter who they are, are all unique, irreplaceable and one of a kind.

With that said, Swayze was no doubt a very talented actor.
