Poor James Marsden

I saw "Enchanted" over break and I once again saw James Marsden play the lovable guy that loses out to the more handsome and stronger (for lack of a better word) male lead. Marsden (who looks surprisingly like Chris Pine) has always played that guy and it's so sad. I think it all started with "The Notebook" when he lost Rachel McAdams to Ryan Gosling. And then the trend started...Cyclops then Richard White from "Superman Returns." He's being typecast as the good guy that can never get the girl. At least, he's finally going to get some action with Katherine Heigl in "27 Dresses" if the trailer is a good indication of the movie (which it always is in romantic comedies).
