: This has to be the greatest example of misogony I have ever seen.
How are we misogynistic? We never said "Lopez is a woman, therefore she sucks."
: Jennifer Lopez has proven herself to be an insanely talented actress (U-Turn,Selena,OUT OF SIGHT) it's not like the announcement was Jennifer Love Hewitt.
I will admit to ignorance of her performance in Out of Sight; however, from what else I've seen I've been quite unimpressed. Don't worry, my ignorance of Out of Sight will soon be remedied.
: Lopez is a proven actress.
A matter of personal opinion. Arguing about it is pointless.
: Just because she's got a musical career and an entourage doesn't negate her ability to act.
We never said that because she has a music career she can't act. What was said is that she can neither act nor sing (well).
: I mean.....quit being so manipulated by what the media tells you..It shows an incredible amount of ignorance.
Considering how the media gushes over her and her "talent," how are we being manipulated by the media? If anything, your opinion is the one that's been influenced.
: Look at fucking Russell Crowe......He's been trashed in the media.....He's launched a singing career....
And this has what to do with Jennifer Lopez? You saying because he's been trashed he's started a singing career?
: But I guarantee you all you bitches would be pissing yourself if he was cast.........("Oh but he was soooooooooooooo good in Romper Stomper"..Ugh!)
I don't piss myself, my urinary and excretory systems are fully in control.
: Think outside the box.....don't be such drones....
Just because a person's opinion differs from yours doesn't mean he's an unthinking drone.
