Line 57:
* Old Bruce Wayne in ''[[The Dark Knight Returns]]'' certainly still holds the appeal he always had.
* Jacob Kane, father of Kate Kane, the modern [[Batwoman]], is in at least his 50s or 60s but is still pretty good looking. It probably helps that he's a career [[Good-Looking Privates|Army]] Colonel.
 
 
== [[Film]] ==
* Mimi Rogers, in 2004's ''[[The Door in the Floor]]''. This 50+ beauty appears alongside a still-got-it Kim Basinger - who was born in December 1953 (58 yo).
* The [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]] version of Aunt May -- called simply "May" by Peter and the target of Happy Hogan's infatuation, played by [[Marisa Tomei]].
 
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* The [[Robert A. Heinlein|author]] introduction to "''The Worlds of Robert Heinlein"'' predicts that future advances in cosmetics and plastic surgery will result in a society full of hot grandmas.
** Not to mention many of Heinlein's later works where many aging characters undergo 'rejuvenation' to regain youthful bodies.
* ''Sisterhood'' series by [[Fern Michaels]]: Myra Rutledge and Countess Anne "Annie" Ryland de Silva. Both of them are in their 60s and heading on to 70s. Make no mistake, they are old enough to be your grandmother, and they are incredibly sexy! In fact, ''Weekend Warriors'' has Nikki Quinn and Barbara Rutledge commenting that Myra looks better at 60 plus years old than they do at 30 plus years old. Now that's hotness!
Line 70 ⟶ 69:
* [[Kinsey Millhone]] definitely thinks her landlord Henry, who is around eighty, is very sexy.
* In the ''[[1632]]'' series, Ruy Sanchez de Casador y Ortiz is somewhere in the vicinity of sixty, but with a better physique than many thirty-something athletes of the 20th century. His face isn't '''quite''' as handsome as Ricardo Montalban's. On top of the physical charms, he's brave, clever, and (intentionally) funny. It's not surprising anymore that an "uptime" woman who's literally young enough to be his daughter falls in love with him.
 
 
== [[Live-Action TV]] ==
Line 154 ⟶ 152:
* ''[[No More Heroes]]'': Naomi, if sources connected to the games are to be believed, is actually 60 plus years old. You would never think to look at her!
* One of the routes in ''[[Hatoful Boyfriend]]'' suggests that Dr. Shuu is probably about the same age as Ryouta's parents... and in Ryouta's route, it's mentioned that old age is a factor in his mother's failing health. Of course, considering he's still a bird, Dr. Shuu might still be [[Mayfly-December Romance|chronologically younger than the heroine]].
 
 
== [[Web Comics]] ==
Line 167 ⟶ 164:
* King Urtica in ''[[Exiern]]'' despite his white hair and beard is revealed to still have a [http://www.exiern.com/?p=1933 very well muscled and defined] chest and six pack. Not to mention his "come to bed" eyes and smile.
 
== [[Web Original]] ==
* Aaliyah Soldari from the ''Welcome to Omega'' serial novel most certainly fits the bill. Two hundred years old and still beautiful enough to make men faint.
* Headmistress Elizabeth Carson of the [[Super-Hero School]] Whateley Academy in the [[Whateley Universe]]. She's in her 70s, and looks early- to mid-30s. She'd look like a movie starlet, but she's too [[Large and In Charge|authoritative]].
* The "Mature" section of [[Literotica]] takes this [[Explicit Content|interesting places]].
 
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
Line 194 ⟶ 190:
* Only implied by Flowerbell about Papa Smurf in ''[[The Smurfs]]'' episode "Papa's Wedding Day" when she's trying to win his heart.
 
== [[Real Life]] ==
* In general, advances in healthcare as well as a greater awareness of the benefits of physical fitness since 1970 (in the United States, at least) have resulted in an overall pushback of the age at which one is considered (and ''looks'') "old", leading to far more examples of this trope and [[Silver Fox]] among the population in the early 21st century than there were fifty years earlier.
