I would agree with you that there are different types of fitness

...such as cardio-vascular fitness.
I would also agree with you that a long distance runner could not step into the shoes of a body-builder and realistically compete with him considering it is such a different type of "fitness".
If you read what I said...I did not say that Hugh Jackman was "unfit". I said muscular definition as an outward appearance is not a good indication of fitness (by that I meant fitness as cardio-vascular fitness and endurance...which for me is a better bench-mark for being healthy. Ask any personal trainer.)
Muscle does increase the metabolic rate in someone...you're right. But that does not mean that someone like Arnold Schwarzenegger is classed as "fit" in his prime as I would define it. He would have struggled to do moderately intense cardio-vascular exercise even in his prime. I have seen his documentary "Pumping Iron" and strong he may have been...but "fit"? No.
I want to also clarify that I am
not saying he (Hugh jackman) is on steroids...I never said that in my post. What I am saying is that there is no way he got into that shape (the extremely low body-fat ratio, definition and amount of muscle) without some form of extra supplimentation in his diet such as creatine...dress it up anyway you like...it is still a "performance enhancing drug"...it may not be "steroids" but it still enhances your bodies performace to a point that you would not be able to perform at that level without it.
You can
legally buy "fat-stripping" suppliments and products such as creatine over the counter. I wouldn't touch either of these...even though creatine is widely used...it has been proven to damage your kidneys if you use it for more than a few months at a time...now if someone wants to use these types of suppliments it's upto them but I wouldn't go near any of them
If you look up the definition of "ectomorph" and "mesomorph"...there is no way that Ryan Reynolds has a ectomorphic body type. He may be a combination of these 2 but he is definately not purely ectomorphic. It wouldn't be possible for him to "bulk-up" to that size if he was.
Even if...even if he took suppliments you do not get to that size by just training and eating. I have never in my life seen an ectomorphic body type person look as bulky as that. If you think you can do this without suppliments then good on you
The 3 Somatotypes
William H. Sheldon, PhD, MD, introduced the concept of body types, or somatotypes, in the 1940s. Since then, nutritionists, exercise physiologists, and even doctors have used it to help design effective, individualized fitness plans. The gist is that everyone falls, though not altogether neatly, into the three categories below. Keep in mind that these are generalizations, and that most of us have characteristics of two or even all three somatotypes.
Ectomorphs are long and lean, with little body fat, and little muscle. They have a hard time gaining weight. Fashion models and basketball players fit this category.

The bones and muscles of the head are prominent. Features of the face are clearly defined, such as cheek bones and a square, heavy jaw
You're entitled to your opinions though
Definitely not. Building muscle makes your muscles more conducive to fast, strong movements (vital for certain sports, such as rugby league); boosts your muscle's endurance; reduces your potential for injury; improves cardiac function; improves posture and can prevent you from succumbing to diseases such as osteoporosis once you get older.
Muscle is also far more metabolically active than fat. The more muscle you have on your body equals more kilojoules being used at rest. In other words, it lifts your body's basal metabolic rate.
If you are as muscly as Hugh Jackman, there is no way that you can be unfit.
Nope, neither of them are on any sort of performace-enhancing drugs. That's quite the nasty accusation. They both went through horribly gruelling workouts for months on end to get into that kind of shape- it was hard work.
They're different kinds of fitness. You wouldn't expect Nigerian long-distance runners to be able to step into a weightlifter's shoes and beat them at their game, nor even come close, just as you wouldn't expect the opposite. That doesn't make either of them unfit though, the weightlifter would have supreme anaerobic fitness whilst the long-distance runner would have superb aerobic fitness.
I would agree, however, that taking a middle road between the two extremes is vastly preferable.
Ryan Reynolds definitely isn't a mesomorph. He was a tall, skinny man (6'3") before he bulked up for Blade Trinity.
You can easily look like them without taking supplements. It just depends on how much work you're willing to put in, and how conducive your genetics are for muscle building. I've got a few mates who are as bulky as them and they don't touch supplements.
