How Come She's Starting To Rival Joy-Taylor And De Armas?


I don't understand it.

She's always seemed to be quite bland. Inoffensive sure but kind of sexless and unappealing.

Yet now she appears to be getting pushed. hard. Why is this do you think?

reply

Who is Ana De Armas? Her 15 seconds of fame have passed few years ago. Who is Joy-Taylor? You mean Anya Taylor-Joy?

Emily Blunt has been around for 20 years. They are not in the same category. No one will remember Anya Taylor-Joy and Ana De Armas even in 10 years. Not many people know them even now. They are not box-office stars and draws.

reply

They really tried to make Ana De Armas but it really didn't pan out the way one would expect.

reply

Yeah. The only reason she got her 15 minutes of fame was because Ben Affleck was dating her. Once they split - so went away her relevancy. She did score few movie roles while dating him. And then they have been released over 2-3 years time. So she pops up sometimes during promotion. But all press hype died down.

reply

Ballerina's on its way. If anything gives her a big boost it'll be that. Guess we'll see.

reply

They developed that movie in 2019 and she was negotiating in late 2021. When she was having her 15 minutes of fame. By the time thy shot and will release it next year - she is long forgotten. Good luck to those-producers who will lose money. Because John Wick movies are popular because fan boys like Keanu Reeves kicks ass.

They are not gonna rush to movies in same masses to see tiny Mary Sue woman "kicking ass". Because they hate it because it's fake. She has no star power to lead anything. That movie will flop.

reply

I know Ballerina's been in the pipeline a while, and I don't doubt that it won't make John Wick money. I'm just saying that if anything gives her big boost I can see it being that. Be interesting to see just how much it does make.

reply

Emily Blunt has been around for 20 years.

Exactly! So why is this bland actress being pushed so heavily at the moment? It's weird...

reply

Why do you think she is "being pushed so heavily at the moment"?

She is at where she has always been. She is lead actress. Or co-lead. And she makes few movies a year and promotes them. She is not bland. Otherwise she could not be around for 20 years.

Do you know who is bland? Ana De Armas and Anya Taylor-Joy.

reply

Do you know who is bland? Ana De Armas and Anya Taylor-Joy.

LOL. You don't say!

reply

54 CREDITS SINCE 2003....MANY OF WHICH WERE BIG THEATRICAL FILMS.


YOUR COMMENT MAKES NO SENSE.

reply

Yep. OP is probably some fan boy of Anya Taylor-Joy or Ana De Armas.

reply

Huh? Emily Blunt is way better than both, it is not even close.

reply

The first time I saw her was in The Devil Wears Prada and I didn’t particularly think she was beautiful at that time but then I saw her in Charlie Wilson’s War and she was stunning in that film.

reply

I haven't seen that as I point blank refuse to watch the output of the so called "actor" Tom Hanks...

reply

She's the better actress.
One day, when you've grown up, you will understand that looks aren't everything, not even in Hollywood.

reply

Odd comment. The OP was that she was being pushed like these other actresses. I never said they were more attractive.

One day, when you've grown up, you will be able to understand other people's comments without injecting fabrications into them.

reply

Oh yeah?
Let me quote you:
"She's always seemed to be quite bland. Inoffensive sure but kind of sexless and unappealing."

You are excused.

reply

I never said they were more attractive.

Yes, thanks for clearing that up.

🪽 "The point" 🪽

"Your head"

reply

The point is, you're not understanding why Blunt is this successful despite her being "sexless and unappealing", while de Armas and Taylor-Joy obviously are.

Just because you didn't say it directly, doesn't mean you didn't say exactly what I commented on.

You fail to grasp why Blunt is this popular.
I told you that looks isn't all that matter and that she's the superior actress.
Not sure what you're still struggling with here.

Maybe spend less time trying to be clever and creative with your little emojis and invest it instead in fucking getting the basics. Or just... you do you and keep shittin the bed for all I care.

reply

The point is, you're not understanding why Blunt is this successful...

No, again that is a b-llshit interjection from yourself.

Here's the basics. You said:-
"She's the better actress.
One day, when you've grown up, you will understand that looks aren't everything..."

So that's YOUR opinion. Your words. From that we can deduce that YOU think that other pair are more attractive. I however said absolutely nothing to suggest I thought that. In fact quite the opposite - I made a sarcastic reply to emori further up this thread and time stamped before my reply to you, that I found them bland...

Therefore I replied :-
"Odd comment. The OP was that she was being pushed like these other actresses. I never said they were more attractive."

And your response to that was to quote my OP saying I found her bland and unappealing. You do understand therefore that - as I said - you've completely missed the point here because that has sweet fa to do with her in relation to the other pair. 100% your fabrication based upon YOUR beliefs on their respective attractiveness.

And now you've added further crap in here - I never mentioned not grasping her being popular. I actually said I didn't understand why she was getting pushed hard now. Do you understand how that's something completely different? Again, you are interjecting a fabrication against what I actually said.

So like I said previously, maybe once you've grown up a little you can spend a little less time trying to be clever and invest it instead in the f-cking basics of actually reading and understanding what someone else says before spewing garbage...

reply

> I never said they were more attractive.

Yeah ya did, kid. Now calm down and play with your Xbox or something.

reply

Again, utter b-llshit. You cannot quote anything like that from me because it wasn't said.

As per my previous post, yours are fabricated projections, probably from someone suffering from ADD. You're looking to reply to something which doesn't exist, as you couldn't invest sufficient time to properly comprehend what was actually written. A sad reflection of your generation...

reply

> You cannot quote anything like that from me because it wasn't said.

Already have, won't repeat myself.

reply

No. You simply quoted my take on Blunt. I said absolute NOTHING about comparing her to the other two and finding them more attractive.

That was your take:-

She's the better actress.
One day, when you've grown up, you will understand that looks aren't everything...

And your take alone...

Besides, that's a weird take anyway. You can't really think Taylor-Joy is more attractive than Blunt...

reply

You nailed it. That fact that he thinks that Blunt is "getting pushed". While she is just doing what she was doing for the past 20 years. Yet he saw her pop up on his feed and decided she is "getting pushed" like Joy and Armas. And was surprised. "Because she is not as sexy".

Then got offended when someone explained it to him why Blunt is a star.

reply

. "Because she is not as sexy".

😂 LOL. 100% made up quote. That's the only thing I'm offended by...

Here's a similar thread I made over two years ago re other pair:-
https://moviechat.org/nm5896355/Anya-Taylor-Joy/63457ae56e9f5d3921a937e8/Taylor-Joy-Vs-de-Armas

Wrap your head around that and how I shared in laughing at De Armas' acting and made no comment re either of them being sexy...

This is problem with numpties like you on this site. You just see what you want to see and don't read what was actually written.

The only thing you said which is correct is yes, she was popping up in my feeds a lot (as the other two had previously) hence my OP. I already responded to YOU "exactly" re her being around for 20 years, yet you repeat it even although I already said that was the point...

reply

Dude you asked question. People answered you. And you got offended and attack them. LOL. Comedy.
Don't ask then if you can't tolerate answers.

Again and again - Emily Blunt was not "getting pushed. hard". She was just promoting movie like she does every time new one comes out. Your post is stupid and makes no sense. Since she and those 2 are not even in the same category.

But since you compared those 3 - it was interesting for people to discuss.

reply

For more information re-read.

I attacked no one. And, as I said, the only thing which offends me is people lying about what I said. I really couldn't give a toss if you or anyone else like her or find her sexy or whatever. That's your prerogative. Exactly the same goes for if you don't find her to be being particularly pushed at the moment.

However you quoted me as saying "Because she is not as sexy" which was a complete fabrication. I take it you are retracting that?

reply

Talented and hot. She's had steady work for a couple decades, so not sure how she qualifies as being "pushed".

reply

"Being pushed"

That such a stupid take that it renders whatever opinion you have on Blunt or her acting completely useless. Dumb post.

reply

I offered absolutely no opinion on Blunt's acting. So I would suggest the "dumb" posting lies elsewhere.

reply

Ah yes, so "bland" doesn't refer to acting, but rather merely her appearance?

Fucking useless moronic post. Being "pushed" hahahahaha

reply

I said I found Blunt bland. Are you stupid? You keep coming out with stuff like "dumb", "moronic" yet are spewing out absolutely nothing of any value to the conversation...

Do you love lamp?

reply

There's no value anywhere to be found on here to begin with. "Bland" could refer to anything and it's quite reasonable to assume you meant acting being she is, you know, an actor. Fuckig moron.

It's seems quite unanimous that your post is fucking stupid. That's not even up for debate, that's a fact. Dumbfuck.

reply

There's no value anywhere to be found on here to begin with...

😂 LOL. Lamp loving proven...

(I doubt you even get that or understand why your reply was funny)

reply

Hahaha you make zero sense. And if that's your idea of some sort of mic-drop, you've already lost.

Have a good day, moron!
👍

reply

By the way, everything you said here is worse and even more nonsensical than Brick screaming anything.

reply

"Drrrrr Emily Blunt is being pushed on us Drrrrrrr."

You fucking retard! 🤣

reply

I've seen De Armas in Knives Out and the Bond (both of which she's perfectly fine in,) and I've never even heard of "Joy-Taylor" let alone seen her in anything! I've haven't seen Blunt in a ton of stuff, maybe five films, and I'd say she ranges from just average in Sunshine Cleaning up to outstanding in Looper...She's even quite good in the realm of musical theater(Into The Woods!)
