It was funny when she dropped the F-bomb on live TV at the Oscar pre-shows and by the time Nicole Kidman interrupted her and pointed it out, it was too late for the censors to do anything.

This woman gets on my nerves. She looks like shes one oxy away from od. And where did she come from? I saw her in Empire Records and then in Jerry maguire and all of a sudden shes a respectable actress? She was cool as that sexaholic letmeworkyouout slut in empire records though (semi aroused). Nurse betty was cool too. Maybe I do like her.

This is so shallow... but there's something about her beady little eyes and pouty (to the point of pretention) lips that make me annoyed.  I must admit, I liked Bridget Jones, but then again I liked the book too (sappy romance fluff  :-D ).  So I guess my point is, I could take her, or leave her.  Streep, Kidman, Moore... now those are great actresses.

She can't get past speaking a sentence without annoying me. She has speech problems and continually looks like she is confused. This happens in interviews and in her roles....the latter is apologized because they say "she is giving the conventional role realism". Blah. Its her lackluster acting and it shows the same in every role she does. She number #1 in my book of an actress likely succeeding in Hollywood by fucking their way to the top because you know the only reason Harvey Weinstein can like her as much as he does is because of the mouth skills she may have in other departments.

I like Renee Zellweger, especially in Bridget Jones's Diary and White Oleander.  She doesn't have the conventional beauty we all come to expect from actresses, but that helps her stand out.  She was willing to gain weight for BJD, sing for Chicago, and really seems to take her roles seriously.  I think she is very charming onscreen (proven by her role in Jerry McGuire).  And how come when someone dislikes a successful actress, it is immediately thought that she performed certain favors to get where she is?  I find that insulting.

I hated Bridget Jones's Diary, and this is before I knew any better (or worse).  Before I became so discriminating, if you could call it that.  Jerry Maguire was okay, but not because of her.  Tom Cruise made that film.  She can't act (at least not from what I've seen).  I saw Empire Records way too long ago to remember anything of consequence about it.  She looked so disgustingly anorexic in Chicago.  Zeta-Jones', Gere's, and Reilly's performances were the only thing good about that movie.  I could take or leave what Queen Latifah did, especially considering her back-to-status-quo career choices afterwards.  Bleh.  I've never seen an actress so undeserving get so much undue attention.  This makes Julia Roberts' praise justified (not saying it's not; Julia has actually had her moments, even if she, as Lois from Family Guy would say, "has lips like a baboon").

Me neither! Did anybody else hear about her prediction to win an oscar this year after being snubbed sometime in the past, she apparently said something to the affect of, "I think they'll make the right choice this year." And apparently, she wasn't kidding.

Anyway, even if that's not true, I still hate her. She is the main reason I don't watch "Jerry Maguire" more than a couple times a year. She's a terrible actress. "Empire Records" is like the worst movie I've ever seen and it's even worse for introducing her into a profession she should have stayed far away from.

You speak as if my dislike of her is solely based on her success. c'mon. I did have reasons. The 'fucking her way to the top' part was just a joke. But, hey, be insulted if you want to.

I know you had reasons, and I didn't mean to come across like I was attacking you. It is just too often actresses hard work are only secondary to how they look.  Renee seems to work hard and I just found the 'fucking her way to the top' insulting to the work she does.  It seems to happen more to actresses than to actors, you know? Anyways, I'm over it and I realize it was just a joke.

i think that maybe what's annoying you about zellwegger is that because of her eyes and cheeks some "image-advisor" told her to put all cards on that childish look, so now she talks like a spoilt child, awful voice but totally fake, like in Jerry Maguire when she yells on that guy that played that football player and his wife for not trusting to Jerry. I think that that voice is totally fake and WRONG.

Isn't there a possibility that that's her actual voice? I mean, if actors wanted to fake their voice, why'd they choose such an irritating voice. (It's strange, I dislike her voice, but have nothing against her as an actress - except for that Cold Mountain fiasco of amovie)

i'd say that the Jerry Maguire scene i mentioned is quite diagnostic - Renee totally went out of the context, out of the blue she spoke in that artificial voice that nobody speaks with. Or maybe she is not so good actress. I think that maybe because she isn't so good looking compared to Nicole Kidman etc. and Hollywood insists on her looks and that's the reason for bad choices she makes. She functioned in Nurse Betty and Bridget Jones, and i think she would be more successful if she wouldn't put her looks infront of her personality. Actresses like Holly Hunter or Sissy Spacek look fine but you don't expect of them to pose in front of cameras in tight dresses. It's just not in their nature, unless it's kind of like a joke.
It's awful how anatomy can shadow the talent. I saw Ana Paquin in some movie that she made as a teenager and her upper lip might be a problem for her.
What's your opinion?

I think she can be good lookin in her own way, but I agree, come to think of it, that she kind of seems to put herself in a position of movie-godess or something. I think that she CAN act, but for my money, she still has much to prove. I don't dislike Zellweger, but she is no Julianne Moore. Yes, looks can shadow talent, but it's up for actors (and makeup departments :P ) to fit their physical characteristics into their characters - did I make sense? To give you an example... it may not make sense, but I think the way Tom Cruise looked was not appropriate for his role in The Last Samurai. But, oh well... I have the strange feeling that this little speach of mine isn't making any sense.

Let's see how Ana Paquin does in her future. I don't think her upper lip will be a problem though.

..if you guys don't believe us  about her teeth...watch ESOTSM(eternal sunshine..blah, blah, blah, )........which i'm sure some of you will watch at least 10 more times in the theatre....but  everytime you see her on screen ..study her teeth they have a certian crooked nuance..about them...and you  will see for yourself........

OK... let's assume she has a bad dental structure... now consider the rest of her-body, face, hair... now please, pretty please and with sugar on top ( :? ) tell me why the hell are her teeth anything to even look at?

Oh, and about Steve Buscemi... A friend of mine - girl - told me quite recently that Buscemi is hot. She's not the first person to say that, but... doesn't it look strange, specially for the guys around here, that they think he's hot? I mean, he's a great fucking actor and he has a very distinct look, but I never thought hat distinct look worked on his favour.

Oh, this is about Zellweger, right? So, is she going to be a two-time academy award winner when she plays Joplin?

Small imperfections help make a hot chick into a super hot chick simply by adding that special individual interest factor.

Agreed about Dunst.

Sometimes I really love it when an otherwise garden variety attractive girl has a little bit of a hook nose or a muckle mouth, or just something that helps you remember her face vividly.

Renee Shelves Joplin Film

Renee Zellweger's planned Janis Joplin biopic has been shelved because producers can't decide on a script. The Cold Mountain star is still desperate to star as the tragic rock singer, but she admits the project isn't likely to roll in the near future. She says, "We talked about that a couple of years ago, developing a script and seeing if it is good enough. She is an exceptional woman and it needs to be an exceptional script to tell her story in a responsible way to have her story told the way it needs to be told. And that takes time. If I am ultimately the person to do it, then great. We are in the stage of developing it and pulling it together. For now, I've got no start date and I am not getting in a make-up chair any time soon." A rival project, starring pop superstar Pink as Joplin, is also in the works.

I just have the feeling that the Pink one will be MUCH BETTER (they actually have the rights to the songs and the blessing of the family members, which Zellweger doesn't, I gather), and probably because Zellweger's camp had the same feeling is why it was shelved.  THAT'S WHAT I THINK!
