What is a himbo?

Hi everybody!
I just saw G.I. JOE, and was reminded of what director John Lassiter (TOY STORY) said about CARS. In the early cuts, the cars did not seem to be hugging the road: their motion was frictionless. Lassiter said that he had to address the issue of physics in order to make the animation acceptable to the naked eye.
In a CGI fest like G.I. JOE, the camera tends to swirl around the big action scenes in rotoscope and such, perhaps to mask the fact that many of the spectacular stunts don't "read" properly to the audience. Now, I grew up with Ray Harryhausen stop action movies, so it doesn't take much to sell a scene to me. But too much CGI can kill the illusion.
Peter Jackson's KING KONG was simply too long, as was the 1976 Dino de Laurentis/Jessica Lange version; neither holds a candle to the 1933 original. CGI relies on a certain amount of suspension of disbelief, the longer you push it, the shorter you capture of it.
I also found it amusing that G.I. JOE still had a white American President who was in too many scenes to be cheaply reshot before release. Instead of hedging their bet by hiring Morgan Freeman for the Oval Office, they now come across as implying that in the near future we'll be back to hiring white guys for the White House.
All that said, I found G.I. JOE to be a fun popcorn movie and look forward to its' sequel. You go, JOE!
A himbo is a male bimbo. As a baby boomer, I have noticed the rise of himbos.
The acronym for himbo is Husband (or Hanger-on) Incessantly Malingering Bozo Overall. I trust that my fellow boomers can look around them and see himbos growing like weeds all over this great land of ours. As for the Gen-Xers and the Ys, they are probably too used to seeing them to even notice the rise of himbos.
What this means is: the himbos have won!
I have refashioned Steve Trevor (Daniel Craig) as a himbo for my WONDER WOMAN movie, with provocative results.
Steve Trevor has become the Lana Lang of comics, having been married off to Etta Candy (Kate Winslet) and largely discarded since the 1980s reboot of the WONDER WOMAN comic. The reason for this is because that Steve Trevor is the Worst Love Interest Ever in comic books, and maybe in life.
The simplification of the WONDER WOMAN (Eva Green) narrative includes moving her away from the cringe-worthy hand-holding of her romance with Steve Trevor.
We can't just marry her off and expect the audience to accept it, or have her divorced off-camera and start the story from there.
WONDER WOMAN is too smart to be single, too strong to be in a destructive relationship and too interesting to not get struck by Cupid's arrows. The TOMB RAIDER movies favored action over passion, to their detriment.
Romance has been hard to integrate into superhero movies.
While the first two SUPERMAN movies had a romantic element, they also took the romance away and returned Superman to his Fortress of Solitude. Understandable, but not acceptable for WONDER WOMAN.
A WONDER WOMAN movie without romance would be an empty exercise. Our WONDER WOMAN movie will deliver a lot of action, plenty of mythology, and a little romance, so help me, God!
Tomorrow, more goodies! Be good!
