Lagerfeld Posted August 31 Posted August 31 Many comedians and comedic actresses managed to transition into acclaimed acting and more serious roles. An example of this is Mo'Nique with her OSCAR-winning performance in Precious. Why couldn't the renowned comedy actress Jen Aniston do the same? Discuss. 3 2
Rihinvention Posted August 31 Posted August 31 (edited) She tried it in 'Cake', and her performance made some decent noise. Honestly though, I think it's just because she's really, really, really dumb. I don't know if it's from all the weed, or just the way she is, but she's not the sharpest tool in the shed. And I say that as someone who loves her. Watching the promo interviews for 'The Morning Show' was actually such a punish. Reese's intellect next to Jennifer struggling to articulate a coherent thought actually made me physically wince. Maybe she was just stoned the entire time, idk. Love her though.

SupremeGoddess Posted August 31 Posted August 31 the adam sandler sidekick would need to actually have talent in order to do that
alexrex Posted August 31 Posted August 31 Jen knows her talents and what people expect from her. That's call being self aware. She already has a great TV legacy and that's enough. Something the Kung Fu Panda 2 pseudo actress has struggled to do, so she needs a reality check. 1 1 7
ICLDXU4HS Posted August 31 Posted August 31 Jen was never willing to degrade herself in ways most of the other girls have and a lot of dark individuals in Hollywood have made it a point to hold her back as a result of that.

How can you seriously come in here and say Angelina doesn't have a legacy Im really sorry but is it ******* CRACK ? 2 2
Rihinvention Posted August 31 Posted August 31 (edited) 5 hours ago, ICLDXU4HS said: Reese is a media tycoon whose business model is revered by business analysts worldwide. She reads a lot of books, and if she likes one, she platforms it on her book club in exchange for its film/TV rights. Then she'll shop it around distributors (Netflix, Apple, Disney, Paramount, traditional studios) because she's free to do so. The author's sales skyrocket, and she makes millions from producing the films/TV shows that SHE created the hype for through her book club. Wild, Gone Girl, Big Little Lies, Daisy Jones & The Six, etc. Not too much on Miss Reese now. Edited August 31 by Rihinvention 3
Marla Singer Posted August 31 Posted August 31 She thought that just playing Rachel with no makeup on was enough to be taken seriously.
Konril Posted August 31 Posted August 31 She seriously tried it with Cake but having that scheduled press junket in case she got nominated for an Oscar but ultimately didn't felt like a comedy and tarnished that endeavor. 1
Radical Pessimism Posted August 31 Posted August 31 The Morning Show isn't serious enough for you guys? 4

I think she's actually far off from knowing her talents, which are abysmal to begin with. So it's you who needs a reality check fr Angelina knows very well she does not need to dabble in silly little tv shows when her legacy obviously transcends the entertainment industry as a whole, so keep seething
Gaia Posted August 31 Posted August 31 She has stated that movie wise, she prefers comedy. It's just her thing. She'll always want to go back to comedy. Not everyone wants to just do serious movies for Oscars. 1
TeemoR Posted August 31 Posted August 31 She doesn't need to. It's not like Ms. Jolie can play something funny either, and that's totally fine as well.
makeme Posted August 31 Posted August 31 She has serious roles that she pulled off. Some people argue that comedic roles are harder because it requires true comedic timing. I wouldn't hold it against her that she never dived deep into this field. Spoiler But to fuel this stan war. Jennifer is better at Drama than Jolie is at Comedy. 1
WEEKND Posted August 31 Posted August 31 I don't consider myself a Jennifer Aniston Stan but that woman has done incredibly well for herself. She might not have an Oscar but she is talented, funny has an iconic character/hairstyle attached to her plus a few box office hits here and there. Furthermore most of her performances are acclaimed. Bruce Almighty for example is a comedy but she makes that movie just as much as Jim Carey. Also I'm pretty sure The Morning Show is a hit 2
Littlejfrey Posted August 31 Posted August 31 Hasn't she been nominated for Emmys and Golden Globes these last years? 1
