February 2011 can't come soon enough.

Let's get this thing in the can ASAP!

Aniston's character will be tailored to fit her acting skill and style i.e. it will be worked into a Rachel from Friends type.

Wait, what!? So he's pretending to be married to keep his girlfriend from leaving him? I see no reason at all why this movie is going to suck dog tits.

I like Jennifer Aniston. I can't explain it.

...probably the drugs.

I have no problem with Aniston, either. She's made some cruddy movies, but by that standard, nobody in Hollywood woud be off the hook.

Man, maybe I need to go to Hollywood. My worst ideas sound better than most of the crap that gets greenlit out there now.

I disagree George. Most things Sandler are atleast as bad if not worse than the projects of pretty much every person you just mentioned.

I loved Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison in my preteens too but that doesn't give Sandler any kind of pass. I must admit Funny People was watchable though.

Not to be a total bitch about it....oh, wait.

That's not a logline. A logline is one sentence (and not to be confused with a tagline). That's a "premise" or "theme." Those two words to describe the short summary part of coverage have always annoyed the hell out of me, but there you are.

In other news, Hurray for the long-over due death of Aniston's career!

Nurse EagerBeaverBaby: "Wait, what!? So he's pretending to be married to keep his girlfriend from leaving him?"

Yeah, that worked so well for Tiger.

What an ass-garglingly horrific remake this is gonna be.

The original was a lot better.

Oh please, the "Sandler Curse" is a fallacy.

Here is the logic behind casting the female lead in an Adam Sandler comedy: find someone reasonably cute and capable of being funny who comes with a little name recognition but is already on the decline and can be had pretty cheap. It's a cost effective way to find a filler actress that will have Joe Moviegoer saying 'hey, it's whatshername from that one movie'.

Appearing in a Sandler movie isn't a catalyst for obscurity, it's just a stop-off on the way.

Winona Ryder? Other than shoplifting from Saks she hadn't done anything in a couple years since Girl, Interrupted and before that nothing since the mid 90's (Reality Bites, etc.)

Fairuza Balk? What, she's getting fewer minor roles as the freaky-looking girl since appearing in the Water Boy? That has everything to do with being on the wrong side of 25 to play goth chicks.

Joey Lauren Adams? Take out the Kevin Smith movies and what are you left with? Don't get me wrong, I had a crush on her too in the mid 90's (see Ryder, Winona and Barrymore, Drew... are you seeing the pattern?) but other than the indie girl potential that you, me, and Kevin Smith saw in her you can't lose something you never had.

Patricia Arquette- is this still necessary? The seven years after True Romance aren't much better than the 7 years after Little Nicky. At least she landed a TV show in there to get some consistent work.

Aniston has to be nearing the end of her usable like as well. She brings nothing but a distractingly recognizable face to everything she is in and like many sitcom stars she can't act worth a damn. I wouldn't be surprised to see her career dry up after this and be mistakenly attributed it to the curse.

And Aniston will always have a career as long as Hollywood needs a girl they still think is cute to move about the screen awkwardly and robotically with little to no acting talent.

Jennifer Aniston is Hollywood's paper lollipop stick. She has no flavor, no nuttrional value,...bland as hell. But for some reason, people keep ingesting her and chewing on her long after the Dum-Dum has been gone.

Fixed it for you, ThatsHowEyeRoll. You left out the quotes.

Anyway. Jennifer Aniston. I believe her role in The Good Girl is part of what is now known as The Lindsay Lohan/Mean Girls Anomaly. A solidly good flick that is the lone bright spot in her film repertoire, after which she began to steadily and consistently make nothing but boring dreck.

Of course, Aniston isn't on coke and doesn't show her smash to the world, but who knows what the future may bring?

It seems to me that I don't really care. Her donkey fist seems about as interesting as she is. I imagine it to also be equally as awkward on film.

That logline was completely fucking confusing. I'm not entirely clear on any of the details, except "man," "woman," and "Happy Madison, so it will be horrible."

Yossarian speaks the truth! Yossarian lives!

Rachel Green was a shallow, selfish character. Most of Aniston's movie roles, dull as they are, have been something of a step up from that.

Ah no, your opinion is wrong, you need to watch them again.

Why do people hate Jennifer Aniston? I don't get it. I haven't hated her in anything, except maybe that movie she did with Kevin Costner-the Graduate thing. I forget the name.
And I don't think she looks old, either.
Sorry folks, just not getting the intense loathing, here.

Me either. She's alright; nothing to write home about, but not horrible. Often miscast. I think a lot of it is simply overload; she was pretty much the most hyped on Friends, and all the tabloid coverage doesn't help the situation.

As far as the cracks on her looks, whatever. It is just one of those things: folks complain about how older actresses don't get roles, but they join in on calling a woman old/ugly because she shows some age. *sigh*

Here's where the loathing comes from, she's bland, she's inadequate, she brings NOTHING acting wise to any project she's in. (as for her looks I really could care less as she also brings nothing to the table, just some average chick who hit the jackpot with some stupid hairdo). So anyway, why cast her, in anything?

I just have just waited for BarbadoSlim to post.

I agree with those who don't understand the level of hate directed at Aniston. Yeah, she's a little bland, but that hardly makes her unique in Hollywood. She's just another one-note ex-sitcom star churning out forgettable romantic comedies. Who cares?

My favorite Aniston role was "Office Space". Other than that I don't have any strong feelings about her. But I am saddened that she may be destroyed by the Sandler curse.

Hey, has Renee Zellwegger ever done a Sandler movie? Someone should look into this. And make it happen.

I'll also throw in that the JenAn hate (on my behalf) is also fueled by the media's insistence that she's "America's Sweetheart" and a saint, a damn saint for enduring what that (talented, gorgeous, and yes fucked up) Angelina did to her. That poor woman! It's like some adult version of Twihardation. Team Jen! Boo Team Angie! More like Team Whore! Am I right? *high fives fellow soccer mom*
Ugh, spare me. Also she's so processed and bland and unremarkable and rich and oh I give up.

Zombienurse, 50 First Dates creeped me the hell out. How do you convince a girl to marry you when she doesn't even know you? How do you convince a girl to let you knock her up the first day you meet? How do you get her to carry your child and move on to your fucking houseboat when SHE HAS NO IDEA WHO THE HELL YOU ARE? It was all just selfish, selfish, skeevy creepiness.

There have been a lot of spiteful comments concerning Jennifer Aniston doing the rounds on the web of late. I believe she appears fantastic, especially following losing a couple of kilos.
