In honor of this holiday, let's celebrate with one man who saved our country - and the entire world - Ben Affleck! OK maybe he didn't really save the world in Armageddon, but he played the part so well. And Pearl Harbor? oh.em.gee. What a war hero. How could you not fall in love with him?!
Although Good Will Hunting put Ben on the map, I think Armageddon was the film that caused women everywhere to take notice. I know my teen butt was in the theater watching him fight a huge rock plummeting at earth. I know I had a few posters of Ben on my wall from the movie (the first two below ;)
This is one celebrity hottie that I was actually excited to see get married. I love Jennifer Garner and I think that they're perfect for each other. Sorry J Lo, but you two just didn't make ANY sense.

Yes! I was one of those crushing on him when Armageddon came out. I do think and Jennifer Garner are great together. x
I've always been kind of uninterested in Ben Affleck, but I think he's cuter than his counterpart, Matt Damon. ;) I already scheduled my Man Candy Monday post but can't "link up" until it shows up in the morning--will do then. Also happy you made a button; I've been meaning to urge you to do that!!
i have to say, this week, you and claire posted a couple of cuties.
i was never into ben until recently. i think it's his acting more than his hotness that i'm drawn to. loved him in the company men.
Maybe I'm kinda crazy in those days because among my friends I'm the only one who really likes Ben Affleck even during the 'Chasing Amy' days... I enjoyed that movie.
Loved him in Armageddon and Pearl Harbor...he's with another hottie there, Josh Hartnett.
I've posted a Man Candy Monday post already but for some reason I can't seem to link up to you...ahhh maybe tomorrow.
Love him. He looks so good in Armageddon.
wow....amazing post....love this fella...his movies are amazing...

I think he and Jennifer Garner are an adorable couple. But can I just say it's kind of freaking me out to see was born in '72 - so he's 38 or 39? Geez I feel old!
Mmmm, yum!

Your link up isn't working, but I did post my man this morning!
I'm not a huge Ben fan, but he is a great actor!
I love Ben! I also think Jennifer Garner is the perfect match for him. They are so cute!
Love him and still love Armageddon! And I have to say I miss Bennifer. I loved him and J.Lo!
thanks for hosting something so much fun! I was watching Pearl Harbor last night after I had done my post about Paul Rudd .. and I was like, "wait ..." I love Ben Affleck. :D
Great choice! Wow, I never realized how many hero roles he's had... :)
yes! i first enjoyed this man candy in goodwill hunting (even though his best bud, matt, was the one i fell in love with, hahah). then came armageddon, jersey girl, etc. i love his bostonian accent. he is def an eye candy! keep these calorie-free treats coming, i love it!
I love me some Ben! Ever since Good Will Hunting came out, I've been such a fan!
Mmmmm. Yes, please. I think he's so attractive.

yea even wrote a poem about him. CREEEEEEPPPYYY!!!
Ben Affleck is my ultimate celebrity crush. He's perfect.
I love Armageddon and always get sucked into watching it whenever it’s on TV. I still remember seeing it in the theater. Ben and Jennifer make a lovely couple, so I’m with you there. He is definitely a handsome man!
i realllllllly liked him in the town!
I could watch Armageddon over and over again. I am trying to look for it in Blu-ray.
He is such a hottie. I even liked him in Bounce. I even liked him in Jersey Girl. He is just so likeable and easy on the eyes. Good choice!
Ben was definitely a celeb crush of mine back in the day. I think I'm the only one who liked Pearl Harbor. Haha!
haha we both are doing man candy! Very nice :)
BINGO! he's a terrific actor and not bad to look at AT ALL! great choice!
i swooned for him in jersey girl.
Hello, he sure is hot!!! :) And I agree, JLo and Been so did not fit at all.
