Why do they insist?

Why do studios insist on putting Jennifer Lopez in their movies... the latest being Netflix? She is one of the worst actors ever... she couldn't act if they paid her to... and they pay her a lot!

When I see she is in a Netflix movie, I make sure not to watch it.

Sorta still, since I gave up meat.
It's a much better experience if you eat meat.

Just the other day I purchased a plant based steak sub and it's not bad, once you add all the extras as you do at Subway but the actual steak, well it could be better.

@OlderSometimesWiser it's just matt... he gets lost and confused🤣

@Ontheroad @OlderSometimesWiser Lol. My answer to the Subway question. I don't know how I ended up here.
One of the great mysteries of our time. Guess she draws in the viewers or they wouldn’t keep doing it.
@Ontheroad Methinks you just like Julia Roberts. 😍

@OlderSometimesWiser welllllllllllllllll, there is that😁
@Ontheroad Ain’t no shame in that game, I like Hugh Jackman’s “rawness” too. 🤣

Why do you insist on using the word "actor" instead of "actress"?
KarenisKenziesmum · 51-55, F
@Ontheroad Not where I live. We use "actor" to refer to a male actor and "actress" to refer to a female one. All this "gender neutral" nonsense is just getting out of hand. Just stick with words and phrases you grew up with.

@KarenisKenziesmum I get that there are differences depending on where one lives, but if it's good enough with the Cambridge, Oxford, and Merriam-Webster dictionaries, I'm good with it too.
KarenisKenziesmum · 51-55, F
@Ontheroad I'll have to check that.

She was okay as Selena but she totally ruined Gigli (2003) and Parker (2013). I am a big fan of the Parker novels, by Richard Stark (Donald E. Westlake) and I thought Jason Statham would be a good choice as Parker but she totally ruined the movie.

Her and Ben Affleck belong together 😝

@Lilymoon are we being a bit catty here?
Lilymoon · F
@Ontheroad I just think they are both overrated 🤦🏻‍♀️

Coincidentally, I kinda feel that way about Ben Affleck. He’s way more accomplished in acting than her but when I see him in some movie I always find it cringy
DanielsASJ · 36-40, M
Maybe she pays them to be seen, who cares.
Ontheroad · M
@DanielsASJ actually I just noticed she was a producer for the movie.... double dipping on this one.
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
Possibly because she looks like this.

Ontheroad · M
@SumKindaMunster yep, I'm sure that has a play in it.

Isn't it more about popularity these days than actual talent. 🤔
Ontheroad · M
@Nihiless you must be right... she gets $9 million plus for a movie and has zero talent.
JaggedLittlePill · 46-50, F
No one is forcing you to watch.
Ontheroad · M
@JaggedLittlePill yep, they don't. Point taken.

😂she’s nice to look at? Lol idk
Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M
@Ontheroad are you saying that because she’s not your type? Many would say J lo is beautiful but I also agree her acting is meh
Ontheroad · M
@Moneyonmymind in a sense, yes. I find her cold, aloof and impressed with herself... she also can't act.
Moneyonmymind · 31-35, M
@Ontheroad gotcha
