Geez..who wouldn't jump Dern for Watts....Hello


More power to Mark Ruffalo. Laura Dern's character is not only whiney and bitchey, she is fugly. Naomi Watts is hot. Both guys should be jumping her and leaving Dern crying in the bathroom.

Am I crazy ?

That is so shallow and insensitive.

I preferred Laura Dern to Naomi Watts. I guess if all you're interested in is having a 'hot' place to stick yourself into, Watts is the way to go. Her character, though, is cold, removed, and thus not exactly a dream date. Even if Dern is less attractive, she has the heart, conviction, and flesh-and-blood realism that are essential in any real relationship.

i COMPLETELY agree.

Naomi Watts is pretty hot from the neck up but otherwise she has an average body with a pair of the ugliest nipples in town.

reply

I'd take both to be honest, but I'm still more for Laura Dern really. She just gets more attractive as she gets older. And that hair does too!

Was it me, or was the scene where she was bouncing up & down on Hank in the front of the car and recalling it to Jack just the sexiest ever? I guess it goes into the whole cuckold territory not to mention that Dern is just so bloody seductive.

wow, i thought i was the only one who thought this! and i'm a chick.

reply

Yep, Naomi is hot. Maybe lacking in bra size, but she has Silver Dollar nips.

You're not crazy, a little mean maybe, but not crazy!

And maybe people will disagree, because maybe they identify with Terry, but Terry was terrible. How can you forget to change your kid's sheets? She doesn't have a job and yet her house looks like a war zone. She never has desert, and she feeds her husband children's cereal for breakfast. And what's up with those tantrums she keeps throwing? She has to wake her kids up every single morning, oh buuhu! Some women have to do all that and go to work on top of everything.

I'm all for girl power, especially since I'm a girl, and I'm not saying she should turn into Donna Reed, but she really is terrible! What is Jack suppose to love her for? She can't even compensate with looks.

It wasn't that Watts was so much better looking it was that Dern's character was a mess that would make the difference for me.

I got the Dvd and i would do them both i was hoping to see Laura Dern in her undies the scene where they have sex in the house while her husband is upstairs Pardon me but it looks like a Rape scene because he has a hand over her mouth to keep her from making noise

reply

You're nuts. I'd take Laura Dern anytime, she's the ultimate sexy if she'd put back a few pounds. I wouldn't wanna deal with her dad though. Has Bruce Dern ever played a good-guy role in 50 years???

reply

Usually any movie that involves 2 women, I'm adamant about who is attractive and who is not, but seriously, I think Dern and Watts are BOTH very attractive. Not only looks-wise, but talent-wise. ...Personality-wise, I think Dern as a slight edge, just from what I've seen in interviews.

reply

i don't mean to be mean but i could easily understand his choosing edith over terry when it comes to looks alone. i just haven't ever found laura dern all that attractive although i like her as an actress. naomi watts has a sexy quality about her even with no make-up and bland clothing.

also, laura dern's character scared me a little bit. the way she would get angry was intimidating.

reply

No, you're not crazy. You're spot on.
