I like Jennifer and enjoy most of her movies. I do not understand why she would go in the front with all the press and then sneak out the back without even eating? Maybe she was meeting someone who then had to cancel?

What movies have made money, where she was the LEAD?
Bruce Almighty?- Jim Carrey.
The Break Up- Vince Vaughn. (Who was coming off of three insanely popular movies) Wedding Crashers, Old School, Mr and Mrs Smith (Where he was comic relief)
Along Came Polly- Ben Stiller.
Jen Movies where she was the star.
Derailed- Flopped.
Rumor has it-Flopped BIG time.
Object of My Affection- I actually liked it, but it FLOPPED
The movie with Kevin Bacon- FLOPPED
There are more.
I find it hilarious that people dont see AJ movies as sucesses........
Mr and Mrs Smith- Co lead, and 600 billion worldwide.
A mighty Heart- Made its money back, and got her two nominations
Wanted- Another sucess
Changeling- It seems to be making its money back, from what I heard.
Tomb Raider 1 &2- Huge movies.
There was a blind item a few months back, that Batman director Christopher Nolan, is considering her and Aniston, for the "Catwoman" role in Batman 3. Now who would he take his chance on? Someone who gets more audience, more often then not? Or someone who hasnt had any real sucess, that could be Contributed to her only?
AJ has had flops so has every other actor, but she has had MORE big time hits, then Flops. While Aniston hits, are only when she is the SIDE role, and The Break up, had her split from Pitt and her "romance with" Vaughn to help it. When it was over so was her career.
Jolie movies are mostly femme fatale (that do really well) are oscar bait (that have decent sucess). Which is why the Catwoman role is SO HERS.
With Aniston- If she had true star power, "He just isnt that Into You" would not have been pushed back FIVE TIMES! And her production company, would not be in the shitter where she cant get distrubition of any film. That isnt A list star power.

I personally don't care whether a movie has made tons of money and is considered a hit or not. I like what I like.
That said, I would rather watch a JA movie over an AJ/Vanilla Shit movie any day.

Word. If I want to see a set of puckered, swollen anal lips all over the screen I have plenty of gay porn from which to choose.

She went in for the paparazzi and snuck out the back when she realized she got stood up again. Darn that John Mayer!
JA is a TV star - and thats it.

^But there's nothing wrong with being a tv star. TV is no longer a second-rate venue. Movie stars are moving to television, either in amazing made-for-tv movies or in their own vehicles. It's not like it's easy to be good on tv. Television stars are usually more beloved than movie stars, since they are more accessible. There are some excellent comic and dramatic actors who choose to do television primarily (David Hyde Pierce, Tina Fey, etc. etc. etc.)
That said, Aniston is a very good supporting player. There's nothing wrong with that either. She does very well in supporting roles, and frankly, she was excellent in The Good Girl, where she was the lead.

I agree there is nothing wrong with being a TV Star. Hell ask any of the starving would be artists if they would like a chance to be on a weekly series.

I love David Hyde Pierce!
I don't see anything wrong with being a supporting player ... someone has to do it and, if they're good, it's a steady pay cheque.
Frankly, I don't get the hate surrounding JA. She is self-supporting. She's fairly private ... rarely giving interviews and not yapping about how perfect her life is every five minutes. She dresses appropriately and she doesn't behave in a skeezy manner.
She seems pretty mild and low-key, imo.

That's because it isn't. 
Naw, seriously, I don't get it either. I don't care for her movies, but they aren't really my types to begin with.

FYI A Mighty Heart made just over 18 million dollars worldwide following a budget of just over 16 million dollars..
Mr and Mrs Smith made 478 million dollars worldwide. You are making the assumtion that I was cribbing about Angelina Jolie......I didn't mention her once in my post. Jennifer Aniston obviously puts bums on seats......where did I mention Miss Jolie?
Derailed made over twice the amount of the budget spent on it......a flop?????
The Break Up made four times the budget....a flop????
You jumped on my comment, I'm curious to know why? Are you a fan of Miss Jolie? I can't even be axxed to find out the paydays of the other films........but I got the figures from boxofficemojo....where I noticed that Changeling has hardly set the box office on fire....strange for an Eastwood film.

I would rather watch a Brad Pitt film. I can't wait to see the Curious Case of Benjamin Button.
Like someone said earlier, Aniston does chick flicks/romantic comdies, so she will always put bums in the seat. People like that kind of crap, thats why Julia Roberts and Kate Husdon still have careers.

I like JA before and after Brad. I have never liked AJ and it has nothing to do with the Brad thing. I don't think there is anything attractive or special about her.
