That’s why my response is to an op comparing current Julia Roberts to current j law Hmmm, think people are wanting to compare Jennifer Lawrence to movie stars back in the day when movies of a similar genre were much more popular. I personally don’t have a problem believing that Julia right now is still a bigger box office draw over Jennifer. Or that Gaga could actually deliver terrific numbers in a gross out adult comedy. Yet, I ain’t the one calling Jennifer Lawrence a fad.

Elusive Chanteuse Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 I don't think so at all. Shes been around for years now. She didn't just fade after Hunger Games so...

If I'm to respect the preferred pronouns of people, then I expect the same. And you did, in fact, quote and address me, so apparently you were triggered somehow—so that "novel" still stands. Not you adding this dogwhistle in with your nonsense

Snatching box office smashes and critically acclaimed prestige films equally. But now her career seems to be in shambles. She hasn’t had a critically acclaimed film since American Hustle (2013). Most of her films since, have been either panned or received a mixed reception. Her last box office smash was Mockingjay Part 2 (2015). And now this blind item clearly talking about Jlaw just dropped How did she go from being the most popular actor on the planet to becoming this irrelevant? she was everywhere because she was putting out film after film. then ya canceled her for being overexposed. her career is not in shambles. she is a legitimate talented actress. white, rich and attractive. she is in no way struggling. numbers aren't everything. not everyone remains on top forever. i'm sure she's not sweating over her life the way you are right now

HardBambi Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 I saw her new movie yesterday I thought it was insanely hilarious the whole cinema laughed continuously Apparently it’s her first comedy I think she’s massive not a fad at all
bad guy Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 (edited) I would have said yes a year ago as ever since Weinstein got exposed her career has took a huge hit as he had a huge hand in her early career roles/award campaigns. But No Hard Feelings is doing decently for a fresh romcom movie in a time where blockbusters and horror are all that succeed these days. She’s proven me wrong. Edited June 25, 2023 by bad guy

The term “girl” is a colloquialism amongst the queer community to address anyone, regardless of identity, and has no correlation with someone actual pronouns. Which you already knew, and just wanted to act a fool, hence the dogwhistle 3 1
TheArgonaut Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 She already made a name in Hollywood and I think for actors that's enough, she gets paid her millions regardless if the movie flops or not.

Park Jinyoung Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 I respect her for doing a romcom we a romcomnaissance
Gerry I Shot Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 I’m going to watch No Hard Feelings tomorrow to help it continue smashing.

To react so strongly to it and double down further proves your intentions 1 1 1
jqnetto Posted June 26, 2023 Posted June 26, 2023 Not really. In fact, she is the last movie star as we know it.

Good luck with that report you speak of Officer! He called me “girl” as a colloquial identifier, when the alphabet mafia should KNOW to ~respect my pronouns~ since they don’t shut up about that.
