Sibling Rivalry

This week I'm putting two of hollywood's most well-known brothers, Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck in competition. Ben's most current film role was Jack Dupree in the action flick "Smokin' Aces". The Oscar winner has one film in the can, the romantic comedy "He's Just Not That Into You", costarring Jennifer Aniston, and is currently filming the crime drama "State of Play" alongside Rachel McAdams, Russell Crowe, and Helen Mirren.
Ben made his directorial debut in 2007 with the crime thriller "Gone Baby, Gone", starring younger brother Casey. Casey had a breakthrough year in 2007, with his role in "Gone Baby, Gone" and his portrayal of notorious Jesse James disciple-turned-traitor Robert Ford in the arthouse film "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" , costarring buddy Brad Pitt as the outlaw James, for which Casey earned high praise, including Golden Globe, Oscar and Screen Actors Guild (SAG) award nominations. He and wife Summer Phoenix, sister to the late River and Joaquin, welcomed their second son on January 12. So, who's hotter?

FUN FACT: Casey goes by his middle name-his full name is Caleb Casey Affleck.

Look, drool, debate and VOTE!
Voting ends Monday, March 17 at 2pm PST

UPDATE

The votes are in! Final Tally:

Ben-2
Casey-0

I must say I disagree with my voters. I've never thought Ben was that hot. Attractive, maybe, but not hot. Casey's big blue eyes and his soft features are VERY hot. He's a better actor than big brother Ben, in my not-so-humble opinion. The one thing I dislike about the younger Affleck is his voice-it sounds nearly identical to Ben's, and I can't stand Ben's voice most of the time. I grates on my nerves.
Thanks to all who voted.
I'm working on my new post-it should be up later today, so be sure to vote on that one as well.
