Still looks like a child


I just can't watch her in some big romantic role, because she looks like she's 14. Makes the male lead look like a pedophile. Ick.

She does look like a child but she's old enough now that they should try and give her more mature roles. It also doesn't help that she still gets cast as a child in certain films like Tomorrowland.

When theres no more room in Hollywood, remakes shall walk the Earth.

She's grown up a looooot. I barely even recognized her.

Her secondary sex characteristics are developed, so she doesn't look like a child. She looks like a young woman (which is what she is), and it's perfectly appropriate that she is cast in romantic roles.

Once you see her in Ask Me Anything you won't be thinking that anymore.

Not at all. She has tons of wrinkles in Tomorrowland. She looks her age and then some.

reply

I was totally thrown off by how old she appeared to be. I seriously thought she was like 14.

reply

No she doesn't. She looks 20 in Tomorrowland, sometimes 22 which was pretty much nearly her age when it was filmed.

In Tommorrowland, she looks 15. 

Especially since she's always amazed and with that type of expression when happy that Walt's teenage girls (Hayley Mills, Annette Funicello) had in their films (despite the other moods that Britt as Casey in that one had, all of which can be seen in the studio's upcoming Pixar film "Inside Out', about a still younger girl. Did you like that segue into an upcoming plug ).

Casey looks, in the scenes where she's first in Tomorrowland the place in the future, walking around peopole with that big smilre on her face like an illustration from the 1960s Disney book drawn by one of the top illustrators, especially in Little Golden Books; some very good illustrators working there, to say nothing of the 60s Whitman novels. The artists on those would have a ball drawing Britt if alive today, with that big Casey Newton character smile.)

It also does not hurt that Britt's a nice, sweet Southern girl who lived in the Carolinas and is like Amanda Bynes used to be (i.e.,no nightclub scenes or anything) before a few years ago..

Amanda Bynes is hot and Lindsay Lohan is not.
