Call me judgmental, but I just don't see it..

Throughout the entire movie Kate Bosworth's "beauty" and body was lusted for. I just don't get it. I see NOTHING desirable about her. She doesn't have pretty hair; her face is meh. not ugly not that great IMO; she is FAR too skinnny! When you can see the bones in your chest..that's when you know you need a cheeseburger.
I honestly think I'm prettier than her, and I really don't think I'm that great looking. Average at best really.

I know I'm being a little harsh, but just my 2 cents.

You sound like a *beep* You may think that you're better looking, but the fact that you even think that makes you ugly. But that doesn't even matter, I'd bet good money you're an ugly, fat nerd who has no business calling a movie star ugly. Go back to your cheeseburgers, jelly girl.

I didn't get the impression that it was so much that she was supposed to be particularly beautiful but that she was or used to be one of them and at that point she was at least somewhat famous.

Aside from that, she dressed inappropriately, deliberately showing herself with no bra, taunted them while semi-nude/topless, etc. Regardless of how pretty or not she was just the fact that she conducted herself the way she did would have attracted attention no matter what. At least that was my take.

I think she was quite attractive with her blond hair. Maybe not compared to other celebrities, but compared to the average woman, absolutely.

A negative opinion is just as valid as a positive one. Expressing it doesn't mean that you're jealous, or think you yourself are better; it's just an opinion. Being a movie star doesn't automatically mean you aren't ugly either. I'm not referring to Kate here, just the principle that you don't have to trot out the accepted gushing laudatory tripe just because someone is famous. People are entitled to have an opinion that differs from the propaganda.

What a doofus.

I think she has a really gorgeous face but agree she is too skinny.

What bothered me about her was that her personality was so abrasive. Found her very aggravating as a character, because she was constantly blaming others for anything that happened.

I'm a skinny girl myself so I think she looked fine. But she did have unattractive feet, which were continually and unfortunately shoved in the camera for some reason.

How will you die, Joan Wilder?

[–] Thiesi 11 years ago

I'd like to give you *my* two cents here, but unfortunately I have no clue what you look like. So could you please send me some photos of you, preferably in similar poses & clothing as Kate Bosworth's character in the movie? I really want to base my arguments on facts, you know ...

I don't like her movies aside from Blue Crush and it was ok. I do not find her attractive at all. Lots of more talented actresses out there. Feed this woman someone PLEASE!!!!!!! My picture is on my profile and am not comparing myself to her but don't think she is pretty. Just my opinion.

[–] Thiesi 10 years ago

She's too skinny fore sure, but saying she's not attractive at all is not fair either. I'm not saying she's ever played an important or any role in my wet dreams, and I'm quite sure she never will, but I'm also quite positive that there are people out there who would certainly credit her with some attractiveness at least.

It's without question that much more attractive women can be seen on the streets of any major city in the world - unless it's a pretty *beep* city, that is.

That said, an actress whom I find completely unattractive is Kate Micucci whereas Kat Foster and particularly Navi Rawat are da bomb. Seriously.

I like talking about hot women in movies. Or hot women in general.

I think she's sexy.

[–] AfroGeek 11 years ago

I think she just has a very slight frame. Very pretty woman, but she didn't look anorexic at least like some other skinny models. I think it fit it kind of well with the way she caved in.

and you have such a great personality along with being pretty. you're the total package! by package I mean obnoxious c'nt.

[–] Wuchakk 11 years ago

I agree that -- while she's certainly no "dog" -- she's not "all that" either. And you're right, she could use gaining some pounds.

High roller - I noticed the feet too - get those dirty plates out of here!
