Jennifer Aniston: NYC
Given Vince Vaughn’s recent success with landing punch lines, there was considerable hope that if anybody could inject a little zip into the stagnating romcom, he’d be the guy to pull it off.
And he still might — one of these days.
In the meantime, there’s "The Break-Up," a major disappointment of an anti-romantic comedy for which Vaughn shares producer and story credits in addition to sharing the screen with real-life squeeze Jennifer Aniston.
Bottom Line: Don’t Believe The Hype
That’s one big OUCH from The Hollywood Reporter! BURNED. Will fans flock to theaters for The Break-Up anyway for the former Friends star? I smell another box-office miss… but hey, The Da Vinci Code still managed. Above is Jennifer Aniston, 37, leaving her NYC hotel yesterday; another outfit after the jump. More pictures in the gallery!

If you look at her upcoming projects, especially the "producing" credits she has on IMDB, it’s all because of Brad Pitt. Since plan B was "their" production company, she gets to be associated with The Departed, Running With Scissors and A million little pieces. Would she have gotten those on her own merit?But Jennifer is having the last laugh. As a matter of fact she’s laughing all the way to the bank. Hollywood studios throw millions at her for doing $hitty movie after $hitty movie. Watch, some studio will give her $20 million for doing The Senator’s Wife, which seems like it should be on Lifetime TV instead of the big screen. Her main competition in films is Sarah Jessica Parker, Sandra Bullock, Claire Danes. Jennifer Lopez is even better than Aniston in her romatic comedies like The Wedding Planner, Maid in Manhattan & Monster in Law.

#99 Gemini thank you for pointing out my error in my first post.You are very insightful and have made some excellent points.One question to JA fan’s why is she still wearing her wedding band?It’s on her right hand but she still has it on.Look at the David Letterman pictures of her on Celebritysource.blogspot.I feel soory for VV,she clearly isn’t over Brad.
Posted on AOL today!Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn CREDIT: MALIBU MEDIAStars Vince Vaughn and Jennifer Aniston may have found romance while filming The Break-Up, but early reviews of the movie indicate that audiences may not feel the love. Variety says the film is not the "boisterous comedy" one would expect from ads, and calls it "relentlessly unpleasant" and "ill-conceived virtually from the opening frame." The Hollywood Reporter labels The Break-Up "a major disappointment of an anti-romantic comedy" and predicts the audience will give up on it long before its "tacked-on" ending. At a recent press conference promoting the movie, Aniston talked about filming on the heels of her 2005 breakup from husband Brad Pitt. "It was definitely therapeutic," she said. "It was also all happening at the exact same time with my – you know." She continued, "At first, I thought it was a joke when I got the phone call from my agent about a movie called The Break-Up. I said, ‘You’ve got to be kidding me.’ But after reading the script, I thought there was no better way to heal than through laughter." At the movie’s May 22 Hollywood premiere, Vaughn, who is also a producer and writer of The Break-Up, said of the film, "I feel great. The response has been so good, the movie’s very funny, and it also has some real moments in it."
Sorry, Plan B was not "their" company. The production company was started originally to produce films for Aniston because she couldn’t get hired. What ended up happening is that she had NO involvement in it, it’s planning, hiring, buying rights to work or even reading the books Brad bought the right to. Plan B was his and Brad Grey’s baby all along.Pitt back in 2003 was making plans to buy her out of the company and leave her with the projects designed for her or that she wanted. He’s done that. The three she has and can’t get greenlighted are part of that agreement. Brad bought the rights to Marianne Pearl’s story and Aniston was saying it was something she would like to star (insert big ole LOL) and when asked to quote a passage or talk about a part of the book that spoke to her she couldn’t respond because she hadn’t even read the thing.She’s just a poser and she knows it
#63 123Friends is on every night because it was a very good show and had SIX actors and great writers making it that way. Look at Seinfeld — great show, but not one of them can find work since. Of the "Friends" who made hit movies, Courtney Cox did it in ensemble Scream movies, Lisa Kudrow did it in ensemble Opposite of Sex (great movie and her best role) and when playing her same TV character in Romy & Michele’s Wedding, and as small part in DeNiro and Billy Crystal’s Analyze This & sequel. Mattew Perry did it when paired with Bruce Willis, but his earlier attempts flopped. Teh others were embarrassments on film. Matt LeBlanc stuck with his same character and couldn’t make it work on TV.Notice how all of them went away from movies, have done theater or just regrouped, waiting for the images of them as their characters to fade to come back. Not overly stuck on herself Jen. And she keeps making a mess of her career and an ass of herself personally with each successive attempt, and dragging down good people with her.
I DONT GIVE A DAMN WHAT DIE HARD BRANGELINA FANS SAY, AM GOING TO SEE THE BREAKUP & ANY OTHER MOVIE JEN ANISTON WILL MAKE!!!!!!
# 102 | so ridiclous | May 26, 2006 10:33 AM"and how can he trust a woman who has a famous reputation she f**cked with the most of her co stars colin frell olivier martinez jhonny lee miler billy bob val kilmer ……..is he sure it’s his baby?"What a mean thing to say! What proof do you have that Angie f**cked OM, VK, CF? And so what if she did? Julia Roberts went out with Kiefer Sutherland, Jason Patric, Dylan McDermott, Dermot Mulroney, Liam Neeson, to name a few co-stars, and she dated a not yet divorced Danny Moder — yet no one has given flack for that. She was still America’s Sweetheart. But you give Angie so much flack and call her names for some imagined, unproven love affairs. And so what if Maddox and Zee have an uncoventional lifestyle? Mad is learning more about the world than if he is just stuck in a classroom. I wish I could have given my son that kind of education — real hands on rather than just from books or the internet!!!

Thanks the real louLou, those bands were gifts from her girlfriends for her birthday. She said they each gave her one representing themselves and she has one for herself which makes 5 must she only wears the 4 so they’re always with her.She’s married to her girlfriends
#106: you are full of crap: the company LEGALLY was theirs. (insert big ole STFU)
funny lainey (laineygossip.com) once thought a Tom Cruise - JA pairing would be heaven on smutty earth.since they both worship the gym (and he dislikes vitamins as much as she dislikes to choose good movie projects) and both on the way down, why, a TOM - JENNIFER MOVIE is something i would cajole my friends to see with me! i would even pay for their tickets!last night watching the (yawn) trailers of break-up, i failed to see how the highlight, JA walking naked to the sala, could entice the 85% who never saw her previous films. she didn’t look sexy at all from behind…and i mean to say it un-disparagingly.
#100: you are full of crap : Brad’s first film: Across The tracks: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101268/
Plan B had Aniston’s name on it because Pitt put her name on it back in the day but she was never involved with it. In fact I don’t even think she went to it’s offices except for a handful of times.Thus, the rub for Pitt and Grey. They had to pay her off for something she was never involved anyway.
#102 So Ridiclous,Angelina has not slept with Colin(he admitted so)nor has she slept with Val or Olivier.The one thing I really hate about JA fan’s is the fact you act like tabloids are your bible.You have no idea who Maddox is playing with or how he being educated.Please stop with the tabloid dribble.Reguarding the baby,this couple has been joined at the hip since they got together,so I think you know it’s BRAD’S BABY!Just face the fact Jen and Brad are divorced!He has a family and has moved on.Double up on your medication if you have to but please face reality.
#94 I completely agree with you. Entertainment if all about trends and right now, Jen bashing is in. But I rather not follow the herd, I love JA and really think this movie will be funny. Cant wait to see it.
#102 so ridiculousI’m glad Maddox is getting the education he is because obviously your education is worthless. You can’t even spell "stable" or "stability" or even "Maddox", and you SCREAM like a wild banshee over trivial matters and have yet to learn how to have a discussion with those who disagree with you. Learn about life, if you can’t learn about reading, writing, and arithmetic, and you’ll have more credibility in a mild discussion about actors and movies.
Ok you guys really really must have nothing better to do than to always be hating on Jenifer Aniston. I mean seriously its laughable you go around spouting statistics and so called facts but you dont even know her only what the media say. Its really sad, and what i dont get is why you like brad and angelina. You like men who leave their wives and are adulterous and women who break marriages up. Women who kiss their brothers and wear capsules of their ugly old boyfriends blood around their neck? Hmm you sure do sound like nice people. I personally dont give a **** who is with who and what but have you no compassion? No senstivity?For any of them invloved in this crap, if you like these people enough then you should be respectful to stop hating, if angelina is so lovely as you all believe then surely she wouldnt want you to be hating on Jen. Jennifer whether you chose to believe it or not is a good actress as is Brad and Angelina, but we will never know what happened between them and its time to move on folks and stop being bitter its funny all you brangelina fans are so keen to hate jen and support brangelina when in reality maybe you are all so defensive and mean because you know its not right, it needs defending because otherwise why would you come onto a thread and quite clearly is to praise jen and her accomplishments just to slate her? You’re trying to make yourselves feel better arent you, oh im sorry that you’re bitter and im sorry you all claim to know these people enough to pass judgements. Would you want people passing comment on your every move and actions? No i didnt think so, so let it be- for god’s sake! And nothing brad and angelina have done is applaudable, and if they are so proud of what they have done why have they travelled half way across the world? Cowardly running away perhaps? Nad have we ever actually seen them be affectionate with one another, it seems to me that all brad wants is ange’s kids-hmm nice relationship particularly when neither of them talk about it. And you slate jen for not saying she is with vince lol oh my lord-hypocritical much?Furthermore, the whole angelina is an ambassador crap and she helps little kids, is a show, admittedly she has donated money and been out to walk around thes people and feel sorry for them, but if she is that concerned then why is she having her own child? I remember in an interview she said she would feel guilty and sick to have her own child when there are so many poor children out there in need of good homes. Oh but its okay to abandon your morals and beliefs when a certain Mr pitt walks onto the scene. Also i think it will be pretty disgusting if they break up especially now as he is playing the whole adopted father role so well. How will those poor kids feel then when their daddy ups and leaves. Poor madox has already lost quite a few fathers already hasnt he, how many is it now? At the the end of the day we dont know these people so lets not pretend we do. But one thing we do know is that Angelina got sloppy seconds!
#100 remember da truthbrad pitt first movies wereCUTTING CLASSTO YOUNG TO DIETHE IMAGEA CROOS THE TRACKSAND ON THE TV SERIES there is a lot of theme but my favorite still"FREDDY NIGHTMARES" do you know theme huumm ok!you have to see theme especialy freddy nightmares!!!and about angelina OMG!!!!!THERE IS SO MANY OF HITS!!

# 101 Frency, that’s the problem with some people, coz they make statements which are completely false just like their idol JA, where did you get the info that she is going to be paid US$ 20 in the Senators wife? She was only paid US$ 7 m in TBU, I think her asking price is now US$ 9m, and in fact, I think from the gossip she has been calling BP beacuse they want to reduce her fee, as you know, her track record for the last 3 movies have been bad. If not for BP’s pity, I don’t think the studio will even go ahead with her as the star in that movie.
Regardless of the debate on whether Jennifer has talent–she seems to have lost any fashion sense she ever had. What the hell is she wearing? A nightgown? The dress looks horrible on her. Can’t believe she went outside in the thing. It makes her look flat chested, saggy and does not flatter her figure whatsoever! JEN get a grip and wear something that compliments you if you want people to think you’ve gotten over BP! Lately you wear colors that don’t flatter you, clothes that don’t do anything for your body style. You are also nearing 40, maybe you should start changing your look a bit! At some point you are going to look pathetic–trying to be 20.
Whoa. Aniston fans can dish it but they can’t take it that’s for sure. To call comments on a message board a trend might be a bit exaggerated. The bottom line with Aniston is that the consumer does not want her or is interested in her. That’s just a fact, a reality by her past 3 flops. Her fans should go out and support her but I think they have and it appears there really isn’t many of them. Vince Vaughn’s fans will help this movie but like Aniston he has a very small window of talent to work with. Not sure people take seriously Vaughn in a non comedy leading role. He always plays the same character in each of his films. Same ole guy from Swingers and this will be somewhat different but from the reviews he’s still doing it in some scenes.I don’t think people are understanding this either but the movie is not a romantic comedy. It’s a dramady and has been marketed wrong.
Most of her loyal fans still believe she could still keep trying, they almost forget that she has been trying it for almost 15 yrs. she is 37 y/o, almost 40. its a bit too late, not suited for cutie role anymore. she can keep trying if she’s twenty something or even in early thirties. HW was harsh on actress who reach 40y/o.
# 106 | Oh My I was being sarcastic when I wrote that Plan B was their company. That’s why I put in quotes. But many of the fanistons can’t wrap their minds around the fact that it’s Brad Pitt who got her projects. Fanistons swear that X made Brad Pitt and not vice-versa!!. When Brad married X it was a major step down from Gwenyth but for X it was 10 steps up. A generic TV star known for a haircut married an A list film star. Well it’s good bye to all of that.
