Still her filmography is full of somewhat enjoyable movies for what they are but she hadn't made a truely great flm.

None A list drector gave her a chance.

 

She never really succeeded in killing Rachel from Friends.

 

To GA, she is still Rachel.

 

Most A-list actresses don't work with A-list directors. Most A-list directors are males who make movies from the point of view of male protagonists and there is no reason for someone like Jolie, Aniston etc. to work with someone like Scorsese if she is going to be the fourth or fifth lead.

I don't think she's still Rachel. She is Jennifer Aniston. It's SJP who never managed to shred Carrie and she's now playing Carrie in eevrything, hence why her post-SATC transtion to movies didn't work.

 

There is always a bit of Rachel in her movies IMO. And it is a good thing.

That's absolutely, sadly true. Whenever these A-list directors work, their films are all about guys, and the women tend to play the girlfriend or the wife. That's why I thank God for Cameron, who always manages to create vivid female characters that don't necessarily play second fiddle to the men in his blockbusters.

In Nolan's movies, the females are wives and lovers to be saved by heroes ....

 

In Bay's movies, the females are  .... just there to be eye-candies ...

That is why YA novels & films are so big : female leads.

OTOH, Aniston is sitll standing. I think that her main problem is that she was highly villified by media as Brad's self-centered wife who doesn't want to have kids or she'll ruin her fantastic figure. That was before Angelina. After Angelina, she was painted as a typical Hollywood ditz while Angelina was a strong, fearless woman role model,etc. You cna see who was pulling the strings of that kind of smear campaign and hype one.

I don't know how can any respectful women see Angelina as a role model. The fact that a lot of women look up to her makes me think less of women.

 

And if the real reason Brad left Jen was REALLY because she didn't want to have a baby then Brad and anyone who sided with him should go and **** themselves. A woman has every right to choose NOT to be a mum.

Let s face the truth here, Jolie would not be as famous as  she is if she hadn't stolen Pitt to miss Aniston.

 

Before 2005, GA thought Jolie was a very weird chick : her deranged love affair with Billy Bob Thornton , her weird mouth to mouth kiss with her brother after the oscar, her angry tatooed look etc

HUh what ?

 

You really think Jolie was followed by 300 paparrazzi everywhere she went, back in let s say 2003 ?

 

At that time she was french kissing, tongues out, Billy Bob Thornton on red carpets with Thornton's blood sample on her necklace.

She was STILL very famous.  Don't try to act like she was a nobody before the "scandal".

She's a walking skeleton who makes anorexia look cool. And her beauty is overrated as hell.

Are u a season subscriber to the Enquire? Is that all u focus on? Her benevolence and selfless acts and her charitable nature make her anything but what u say she is. And her pre 2005 stuff is almost a decade ago. Times change and so do people.
