Agreed. I’ve noticed that with other actors too. Fame really seems to change people.

Just saw Death Wish this morning.

Not exactly the best timng for a revenge movie, but was satisfyingly fun.

The critics will hate it.

Great point. The more you know about an actor, the more difficult it is to believe them as their character.

That's what happened with me and Robert De Niro.

“Fame is fleeting. It’s possible in five years, we will be asking “whatever happened to Jennifer Lawrence”.”

Speaking of which, whatever happened to Sean Penn?

But is she really a leading lady? Isn't she more of a supporting or ensemble actress? She had a leading role in Joy, but that seems to be the exception, rather than the rule.

good! she’s a little snot with a big mouth. Maybe she’ll be more humble in the future.

Even her boobs on display couldn’t save her.

“Horrywood!”

I’m sorry, but that seems nuts to me.

She is naked in the film, the reddit website has the clip. The setting is a room full of people seated looking at her take her clothes off in front. She then leans against the table with her legs spread. The lower area is blocked by a male actor. Her small breasts are visible. In other images of her, she is using a magic bra to make them look bigger and firmer and I suspect CGI is involved. She is also tied up in the film.
She would have been better off keeping her clothes on as she now has nothing more to offer the public.

Newsweek: ‘Red Sparrow’ is Sadistic Torture Porn
http://www.newsweek.com/jennifer-lawrence-red-sparrow-rape-829511

Excerpt: When asked by critics whether every single naked torture scene was necessary, Francis Lawrence simply said, “Yes.” Jennifer Lawrence is apparently fine with it, too. She reportedly saw a cut of the film before it was sent to producers or critics, and she didn’t ask for any scenes to be cut. In fact, the outspoken feminist told 60 Minutes on February 26 that the film’s use of nudity “empowered” her. “It’s my body, it’s my art, and it’s my choice. And if you don’t like boobs, you should not go see Red Sparrow.”

I do not think her star has dimmed. I do not think she was ever a draw. She happened to be in some hit movies, but those movies were not hits because of her name. Hollywood needs to learn that the days of packing movie houses on star power alone are over. She’ll probably be in more hit movies if they are movies people want to see.

I still don’t understand why people, like this Jennifer person, who rely on the public to make money want to alienate half the population. You would think they would avoid publically politics and religion and just stick to acting. I guess they wrongly think, with fame, they are bigger than everyone else and are above everyone.

Maybe they are so deeply committed to the the left that to spread its agenda is more important than personal success. This seems to be true of a number of big corporations that are willing to lose costumers just to push the left’s agenda.

Anyone could go through life very well without knowing who the mediocre Jennifer Lawrence is.

You saw a REMAKE of Death Wish.

There is only one Paul Kersey——Charles Bronson.

Yes. You ARE correct.

Charles played the ballsiest characters.

Mea Culpa! :-)

You do realize she has photos on the internet of her bare ass cheeks spread open and some dude's fingers shoved into her bald twat?

She didn't really have much more to offer.

Yes, but not FReepers where we are treated to a weekly J-Law thread. Nine this year alone so far with Jennifer Lawrence in the title.
