have an interest in Jennifer's Body because, well, I'm not a fan of Megan Fox...
I read her columns in Entertainment Weekly, and it seems as if she's cut from the pop-culture-as-art school of writing/filmmaking, which is fine...
I also found it interesting when she fired back at her critics a couple of years ago... ________________________________________________________________________ "I am a rewriter. I rewrite a number of times. Imaginative richness is born in rewriting." - Bernard Malamud

ok wait not seeing the 'firing back' ~~~~ When you are born, you cry, and the world rejoices. Live so that when you die, you rejoice, and the world cries. ~~~~ You cannot hate people for their own good.

17. "Juno was a quality teen movie in an era of absolute nonsense" In response to Reply # 0
Granted, I thought Saved! was a better version of Juno but it was a solid movie. It got massively overhyped and the backlash came but it's a good teen flick.
United States of Tara was boring and aimless. I think Jennifer's Body is more in her wheelhouse and she should stick with popcorn movies and stay away from TV. She might have a solid drama in her but I don't think it's time to go for it right now. She should get a few more features under her belt.
23. "lack of marketing was in no small part due to" In response to Reply # 19
the ridiculousness of Christian right in the movie. That pulled a lot of possible dollars. That being said, it's the kind of flick that dies in the theatre and lives on DVD.
