Oscar for Jessica


I know it's a stretch but does anyone think it's possible

reply

No. Absolutely not.

I was thinking about it, but I've seen all Jessica's movies, and she can't act. Sorry

I just love dramas , thrillers, action and horror movies. Can you blame me?

She certainly silenced many of her critics, who thought she was only in films as eye candy, with her performance in this movie.
I don't think she'll ever win an Oscar though.

reply

That's about as impossible as me looking like Jessica Alba.
There are some things I am unsure of in life. The fact that Jessica Alba will NEVER win an Oscar is one thing I can 100% guarantee. She could win a million beauty contests though.

reply

If you watch Dark Angel, esp. Season one, you'll see that she's a very talented actress. Other than that show, everything I've seen her in was utterly horrid.

As to your question.. how about we wait til the movie comes out before we talk about that? Lots of crappy movies have been made from books.

reply

A lot of brilliant movies have been made from books too. Jessica has given promising performances in Sin City, Awake and The Eye. Don't write her off just yet.

reply

eff yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

reply

it could be a good movie
but I don't think it could get her an Oscar

maybe a couple of years later, if she keeps on taking part in these movies instead of corny comedies

I do agree, she was good in Dark Angel, and sometimes she was great, but watching some of her other projects, I have to wonder what happened to that talent.

reply

I agree--her performance in Dark Angel is what made Season One so great. And her performance in Awake and The Eye were so different. Besides, she hasn't done a movie like this before, so who knows!

And, who ever would have thought that an American Idol contestant would win an oscar... just saying.

reply

agree.

reply

Wow, I could not disagree with you more on that one. She was utterly horrid in both seasons of Dark Angel. She would never get any acting gigs at all if she wasn't so pretty.

reply

She could win an oscar. Halle Berry won for Monster's Ball, so I guess ANYTHING is possible!

reply

Jessica Alba wins an Oscar when W. wins the nobel prize for Physics.

reply

Nothing's impossible, when concerned with the Hollywood business. No one thought Cher could act and she surprised them all and got several awards for her performances in movies. Like I stated before, I believe Alba can act. Sometimes she tries too hard, or gets sub-par direction, but she has in her to become a great actress. Her career in film has, technically, just started, so she has plenty of time to imrpove her skills.

I don't think this will be an Award Winning Performance from Jessica Alba, but it will be among her better performances (Sin City, The Eye, Awake, and Dark Angel) of her film career.

Anyhow, I'm looking forward to this movie.

You Seriously didn't get that comment? I meant, sometimes the direction she gets from the directors she works WITH is not as good as it should be at times. Hence the Comment.

Disclaimer: I've only watched her in DA, ITTB, SC, TE and what I vaguely recall from Flipper.

Very few people win an Oscar. Jessica Biel, another hottie, hasn't.

Unlike Biel, Alba has quite a few gaps in her filmography - ie too much personal time off? And when was the last time you saw her in 2 movies in the same year?

Virtually all of her roles exploit her hourglass body. Once remembered as hottie in some movie like Good Luck Chuck or Fantastic Four, its difficult to break the mould.

As much as I truely love Alba, I agree 100% with the razzie nominations. Acting is pretending something you are not. Acting is different accent, gestures, body language, personallity, emotions, etc to make you see the character and not the actor.

Jessica just plays Jessica in all her roles. Sometimes she plays sad Jessica. Sometimes romantic Jessica. Often goofy cute Jessica. She had made dramatic hair style and costume transformations, but she's still playing herself.

That is why so many young men are lovestruck for Jessica (maybe maybe Max), but ask any guy about "Cam Wexler" or even "Sue Storm" and you get blank puzzled stares.

Finally, I think her 2010 roles as a prostitute and math geek are desperate (post maternal) cash grabs that destroy the strong integrity her fanbase loves about her. (ie think of message being sent to 10 year old loner girls that look up to her)

reply

Is it possible? Only in the way it is possible that Uwe Boll can win one for Best Director some day.

I love Jessica, but no, I do not think she will be awarded for this. I feel, just looking at the synopsis and the pictures, she is mis-cast (and probably done so they could get funding for it).

She had every opportunity to prove herself in "The Eye," a challenging role, and she squandered it away.

I thought she was decent in "Sin City," as a supporting character, and likable and sweet in "Honey."

reply

She's been RAzzie nominated more times than Sharon Stone, and she was awarded the worst Latino actress award in the Lazzies.

Could she be nominated? Well, Angelina Jolie was, twice, as was Sharon Stone, so anything could happen. Could she win? Halle Berry, Julia Roberts and Angelina Jolie won, so yes, she could.

That said, if the question is 'Should she win an oscar?' Then the answer is no, not a chance. The fact of the the matter is, she is a terrible actress. I won't blame her for Fantastic Four, much, as that was a terrible film where everyone was either badly cast, squandered, or badly directed, in addition to an awful script and bad everything else.

Dark Angel? You thought she was good in that? I always thought that most people agreed she was terrible. The Eye and Awake were largeluy regarded as utterly terrible, due to the wooden acting by both leads ( at times it seems like her Mastercard could out act her, and it is probably true.)

Honey was a disaster, and she was the second problem with that film, the first being the script, which she advised on.

Sin City is questionable, as she doesn't get much to do in the film.

reply

She was amazing in Dark Angel, completely able to go from kick ass protector, to emotionally wrought young woman.

Sin City I also think she was really good in, and everything else ranged from endurable to painful.

I really hope that this role gives her a chance to show off her acting chops.

I love her, but if she blows this I might be giving up...

reply

awesome in dark angel? you must be talking about some other show man. i will give you that she was perfectly cast in it, eye candy deluxe! sadly she is nothing more and never will be. she´s either an idiot or someone incredibly stupid is picking roles for her.

Whats that on your face!
