Maggie Gyllenhaal is revolting


I want to love this show but the major thing holding it back is Maggie Gyllenhaal's horrific face and flap jack boobies. She has to be the ugliest actress working today in major TV/Movies. Every time she's on screen I want to barf. Get her off my TV!

reply

You don't have to look at her.

reply

They don't have to hire her.

reply

Right but they did, so that is out of your control. However watching her on tv, is something you have control of. See how this can easily be resolved? See how you have the power to get her off your tv? You sir are in control

reply

A well made show shouldn't force their viewers to cover their eyes every time their lead actress is on screen because she's so gross to look at. HBO's fault.

reply

Either you're an unfunny troll or just a complete idiot. For your sake I hope it's the former.

reply

I think both,

Maggie G is just fine. She's a good actress. I have never understood the hate against her. Btw she has an interesting look and her boobs look great.

reply

Ya the guy just tugged to hard then cried

reply

I believe she's also part producer so she's invested in the show herself beyond acting. But really who cares what she looks like? She's a great actress and she kills this roll. Personally, I think she's decent looking and I appreciate that she isn't a 10, I much rather have a great actor who looks average over someone who is stunning but can't act for shit, which seems to be the majority of younger hollywood these days.

reply

Your not the only one that feels that way.

I'd still pound that ass!

reply

She looks nothing like Jake.

reply

They do resemble each other, though. You can see it clearly in Donnie Darko.

reply

She’s not even slightly ugly. You guys need to lower your standards if you ever want to have sex with a woman.

reply

She’s hideous.

reply

You should feel lucky you didn't get past the first couple episodes if you couldn't bear Maggie Gyllenhaal. There are far nastier looking hoes in this series than her.

I think this show really goes for the 70s realism, warts and all. Apologies to anyone who lived through that era and liked the styles, but as someone who didn't I find the fashions of the time to be incredibly cheesy looking. Some of the female hairstyles make some women look really unattractive. Like parting their hair down the middle like that?!?

Even though Maggie's a primary character, she's not the eye candy of the series. She's supposed to play the older run down prostitute who seeks a better life capitalizing on the burgeoning sex industry behind the camera because she's actually got a brain and ambition.

Topic was created by an OP who, based on this and the rest of his posting history, is a dimwit. She’s not voluptuous. Most street walking working girls aren’t. Your point is, what . . . ? That she’s a great example of a streetcorner whore?

reply

Jimmy has also admitted he’s not into women, thought a chicken was a duck and confused Donald trump with triump the insult comic dog

reply

Citation needed. Sounds like VERY fake news. Do you work for CNN?

reply

DNN it’s the sister station

reply

That ain’t it chief.

reply

How do you know ? You’re not in le union

reply

We have different taste in women so that makes me a dimwit? Get off your high horse you arrogant prick.

reply

What makes you a dimwit is the fact that you made a post to insult a woman just because you don’t think she looks good.

reply

Awww poor little snowflake got his feelings hurt.

reply

Lol I knew that’s what you would reply. People like you are so predictable... and stupid.

reply

No you didnt.

You hit the nail on the head Nose.

reply

Maggie Gyllenhaal is prettier than Claire Danes.

reply

Lmao to a blind dude maybe

reply

I think Maggie is gorgeous!

reply

I know a lot of ppl find Claire Danes attractive and to each their own. Years ago I think I saw her in The Rainmaker and in a certain scene she was crying while recovering in a hospital. If I recall, she asks the protagonist for a kleanex to wipe her tears but I thought she just as easily could have asked for toilet paper to wipe her ass.

reply

Eye of the beholder and all that, but I don't agree.

reply

agreed. Claire Danes is weird looking and walks funny

reply

Isn't she playing a run down 70's hooker?

reply

That is just one factor in the poorly done series. I wanted to like it too, so watched the 1st season. By the end I was so done with it. Much better to see actual '70s NYC films of which there are lots!
