An Angelina Jolie movie being awful? Wow. In other news, sky blue, water still wet, Lindsay Lohan still a mess.
Seriously, does anyone else notice that is a talentless, ugly, morally decrepit person? I'm sick of being told she's a great actress, beautiful, and a humanitarian.
She clearly used her Dad's influence to buy that oscar, considering how two-dimensional her character was and how awful every single role she's taken since has been.
Her face is like an insomniac zombie's with ugly, allergic-reaction sized lips--I don't care how many women/gay men say that's "seductive," to straight men that's "ugly." Let's not get started on her veiny arms and man hands.
And humanitarian? Right. Stealing children from 3rd world families a la Madonna just so she can seem diverse (you really think you could grab a kid and get out of a 3rd world country as quickly as she does?), putting them into the fishbowl and emotionally wreckage that is an actor's child's life, and stealing someone's husband? This is humanitarian? Seriously, exploiting children for fame and breaking up marriages= bad person.
Then again, I am living in a country where a terrorist sympathizer is going to be president, so maybe I shouldn't be so surprised. Heck, I'm going to be called a racist for even bringing that up (because fact=racist, apparently).
I wonder if those survivalists hiding out in the woods don't have the right idea. At this point, society is crazy.
That LATimes article painted a fascinating (and horribly sad) story. How do you present something like that in 2 hours? That's the limitation on film, complex stories like this take time.
Interesting that you call it "the new Angelina Jolie movie." I though of it as "the new Clint Eastwood movie" (he is the director). I wonder what that says about you (and me).
1. You subscribe to the theory that fact that a lot of people believe in something, it is more likely to be true. Nice. I'm glad all your arguments are based on Wikipedia.
2. Go ahead. Try to defend the terrorist coddler. Please.

Yeah, because straight men only like thin, boyish lips. Right. Do they also like flat chests, unobtrusive hips, and amber alerts?
Or did you maybe wake up on the wrong side of a sinus cold today?

Well, if you look at the women Hollywood and the fashion industry promote as "beautiful," then the answer is certainly "yes." On the other hand, if you ask actual straight men...
Anyway, Jolie's problem isn't that she has fat lips, it's that her mouth is children's-anime big.
1. aMouseforallSeasons: I see Rob Lyman has nailed your stupid little argument. Go back to your girlfriends and gay friends and quit trying to think that your opinion of what men SHOULD be attracted to means anything.
2. Fred: Hmm, considering I didn't bother viewing this movie, since I assume anything starring Jolie is crap, and I didn't see W., since anything by Oliver Stone will involve 10,000 made up points that he claims are true and a conspiracy involving the Illuminati, I would say here, have a big ol' glass of the STFU juice.
Men, raise your hand if you've ever looked a pam anderson/Jenna Jameson (young versions) picture and had some woman attack them as being ugly and slutty and made of plastic. And pat yourself on the back if you told her that they were hotter than her and the other things only made you want to boff her more.
I have this theory that if I feed the troll, I can keep him distracted past sunrise. After that we can let the pigeons do to him for a thousand years or so, what he did to this thread. Seems reasonable.
J. Michael Straczynski first feature film awful? That sounds quite impossible. I suggest you check whether your film critic friend also found Babylon 5 awful before drawing any conclusions.
I enjoy this reparte. I'm sorry that Angelina is a talentless, evil, ugly little troll; don't worry, I'm sure she wills till make you millions of dollars exploiting her black market babies.
Impy....impy...where are you???? lol
Oh there you are. Is that the best you can do? I'm quite disappointed. I was hoping a better comback from you before I left for lunch.
Ah well, impy, I suppose you're too busy doing damage control for Jolie's next child-exploiting adventure.
That poor mother! As someone said, having children is like taking your heart of your chest and letting it walk around unsupervised.

Wow film critic, now tell us how you really feel.
Don't hold back anything ...
This reminds me of the contention surrounding Roger Ebert's intelligent design article: how can one distinguish a wingnut from a parody of one?
That LATimes article painted a fascinating (and horribly sad) story. How do you present something like that in 2 hours? That's the limitation on film, complex stories like this take time.
Is Jolie the mother, or the imposter?

And it never apparently occurred to you that such a thing is impossible; therefore, what you think you know about Obama couldn't possibly be true?
Naw. You're the one who's got it right, and something like 200 million Americans must have it all wrong. That must be it.
"Film Critic",
Do you actually critique for a living? I hope so, as that's the funniest review I've read in a long time.
More please.
Dear Chet,
I have 3 things to say to you:
1. You subscribe to the theory that fact that a lot of people believe in something, it is more likely to be true. Nice. I'm glad all your arguments are based on Wikipedia.
2. Go ahead. Try to defend the terrorist coddler. Please.
3. Bite me.
Lovingly,
---Film Critic
Film Critic,
I'm so glad you are back.
Could we have more of your posts: perhaps on 'W'?
I'm waiting for your mavericky take on things.

You don't connect the fat lips and big mouth with any possible reason for attraction?
James: practical utility and aesthetically pleasing design are often orthogonal and occasionally, as in this case, opposed.
I've whacked one out to both Angelina Jolie and Denzel Washington in The Bone Collector.
Their fat lips were the thing that made me shoot my load in both cases.
And I'm straight, so I guess there goes your theory.
(from the article) Collins still failed to convince LAPD Capt. J.J. Jones, who investigated the kidnapping, that the boy was an impostor.
“What are you trying to do, make fools out of us all? Or are you trying to shirk your duty as a mother and have the state provide for your son"?
What's the matter with the Nebraska legislature?

People, don't feed the troll.
Wait, "Film Critic" is a TROLL? I assumed he was the friend Ms. McArdle alludes to in her post. Seems about her speed in cinephiles.
I have this theory that if I feed the troll, I can keep him distracted past sunrise. After that we can let the pigeons do to him for a thousand years or so, what he did to this thread. Seems reasonable.

Ah, aMouseforallSeasons, I love it: calling Angeline Jolie what she is=evil troll. Defending yourself=evil troll. Stating facts=evil troll.
Please, tell me more fo this "logic" you subscribe to.
But tell me quickly, before I go and eat my own shit again.
11:31=not real film critic. Prolly Angelina Jolie's agent, desperately trying to not have the truth revealed.
11:42=not real film critic. Mentally disturbed person, desperately eating other people's shit.
I enjoy this reparte. I'm sorry that Angelina is a talentless, evil, ugly little troll; don't worry, I'm sure she wills till make you millions of dollars exploiting her black market babies.
I suck cock on Tuesdays. message me.
only on Tuesdays.
There's the standard of discouse I expect from you, imposter! :P
You are witnessing the sound of one hand clapping.
No, Impy, it's the sound of one hand being smacked upside your wittle bitty head.
While my other hand whacks off compulsively, constantly, endlessly.
If you do the sucking, then I'll do the smacking.
Why impy, I didn't know you thought of me that much!
Now Impy, you know you're not coordinated enough to hit yourself in the head. simply typing on the keyboard is stress enough for you!
using 'impy' is not sufficient, impy.
try harder.
Impy....impy...where are you???? lol
Oh there you are. Is that the best you can do? I'm quite disappointed. I was hoping a better comback from you before I left for lunch.
Ah well, impy, I suppose you're too busy doing damage control for Jolie's next child-exploiting adventure.
Actually, I was trying to distract you from your next child-molesting adventure.
