You are a big LIAR, just like your idol Jennifer Aniston.

go to Oct 15, 2007 Jennifer Aniston “Harper Bazaar” November 2007

To those who tried to defend Jen’s movies sell, read the excerpt. Critics must have said criticized her movies, otherwise why would she bring it up in her interview.

This is the excerpt of the interview.

On critiques of her box-office performance “I’ve read things that said I wasn’t successful at the box office or that my big hit was The Break-Up. But I said, ‘Wait a minute. There was Along Came Polly, which did really well, and Bruce Almighty was a pretty big movie.’ But they’ll single out Derailed or Rumor Has It, movies that didn’t do well, in order to support their agenda.”

Micro your the liar her movies have done way better than jolies movies look up and the irony is jen just became a “movie star” she was a “T.V star” for over 10 years

He talked about Critics not movie sales Yeah the critics can say what they want but that don’t stop people from going to see her movies so again you have no point her movies do way better than your idol and alot of other people

Aniston’s Revenge

Jennifer Aniston To Launch New Production Company, Armed With Revenge Fantasies And Cinematic Sneak Attacks

As Jennifer Aniston announced her plans to launch a new production company called Echo Films with longtime producing partner Kristin Hahn (formerly partners with Aniston and Brad Pitt at Plan B), we couldn’t help but notice a running theme associated with the majority of their projects in the works. It seems that recent disses from Angelina Jolie and those gushy rumors in all the weeklies claiming she’s fallen for (yet failed to nab) co-star after co-star have inspired Echo to pursue production of a number of Women Seeking Revenge Against Men themed films.

These flicks will provide Aniston with the opportunity for Aniston to use the power of cinema to address everyone in Hollywood who has labeled her as a Pity Party Girl.

After the jump, we take a closer look at the projects they’ve lined up to get a sense of what kinds of stories Aniston wants to tell moviegoers.

As Aniston told Variety, “We’re drawn to stories about people finding their voice and finding their way because they help us…[make] sense of our lives through the stories of others.” Oddly enough, many of these movies’ story lines seem eerily derived straight out of Aniston’s darker fantasies.

For example, Echo plans on adapting the novel Getting Rid Of Matthew, about a woman who destroys a man’s marriage, invents an alter ego and befriends the wife she spurned. Is this a message for Angelina?

Another adaptation, this time of The Divorce Party, revolves around a couple who celebrate their divorce by hosting a soiree. Looking back on the messiness of her divorce with Pitt, Jen may vicariously reenact the way she wished they’d ended things in this part.

And in the most intriguing project, Hahn and Aniston will produce Counter-Clockwise, the true story of a psychologist who attempted “to reverse the aging process of subjects by re-creating the era of their prime.”

Did we mention Aniston plans on starring in each of these flicks? Sounds like cinemagoers will be treated to an intriguing glimpse into Aniston’s psyche over the next few years.

You go Jen! You give your fans someone to be proud of!

are you sure @ 04/01/2008 at 3:59 pm

#30 : all the articles say it is a new company…. 2 years old ??? are you sure ????

wildflower509 @ 04/01/2008 at 4:00 pm

Sure her new production company will do great, after all, she and her new partner were directly involved with the creation of Plan B production company which she bowed out of when separated from her former hubby. Jennifer has lots of insight, and knowledge in all fields of this industry, and has a gift for selecting story lines people want to see. I’m looking forward to viewing some of her projects as they emerge. And puleze! When will people get over the more than three years ago end of the Golden Couple?…It’s Ovah! y’all hear?

That article is about CRITICS and the reviews they give it has nothing to do with movie sales. F.Y.I critics often talk badly about some of the best films but they end up being the biggest hits. l

@ crystal clear

You are NOT being fair in comparing. You selected and omitted certain data to suit your argument.

Let me correct you by posting the following.

Let’s compare apples with apples. Let’s compare the most RECENT 4 movies of the us box office.

Aniston:
The Break up 118M
Friends with money 13M
Rumor has it 42M
Derailed 36M

Jolie:
Beowulf 82M
A Mighty heart 9M
The Good Shepherd 59M
Mr. & Mrs Smith 186M

Good for her can’t wait for her new movies to come out

Read what I highlight above. Notice the word is “box office performance”. The interview was about box office performance meaning SALES.

LOLtoNOWSHUTUP @ 04/01/2008 at 4:13 pm

Looks like you DID shut them up. bwahaha….not ONE more comment from their lying lips. LOL…GOOD JOB!!!! and thanks for your link.

.
I will not knock her down in her attempt to re-establish her herself. It’s the only way she can regain her credibility. Forming her own company is actually a good alternative. Her pictures and projects are not connecting with the public. Hedge Fund managers are too not eager to fund and underwrite her films, for the most part because, the Rachel persona has long ago lost its appeal, and her fatal interview with Vanity Fair to regain sympathy has actually backfired. That “sweetheart” image did not ring true to the public . You can only fool the public so far. She chose to end her marriage in her quest to be a A-list actor. That was an illusion. That “sweetheart persona was simply false, and the public can see thru it. She’s good in being “Rachel”, but only wide range talent can sustained the interest of the movie-going public. The public wants to see Angelina Jolie, Reese Witherspoon, Jodie Foster, Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, Renee Zellwieger in their varying and wide range acting.
.
She is not first one who got divorced, not first one who failed. She cannot use “sympathy and wailing” , She must have a wide range talent to be a sustainable A-lister. She does not.
.
Still, I also support her choices to pursue her place in the A-list . Albeit that she failed, women are free to pursue their career in lieu of family and motherhood. It is not an easy choice.
.
What I don’t support is her incessant desire to blame Jolie for her failures. Brad Pitt has move on. He and Jolie have a fantastic family and an A-list status. They serve their country with their local charities, still have time to be global humanitarians. Apparently, A-list is still possible with children and family. They tbelieve that family and children are blessings and not a burden.
.
Jen’s burden is her inability to use failures as tool for another opportunity. She has sworn in many interviews that she moved on, but again - she lied over and over again. And, until she truly moves on, admit her failures - she will continue to fail. Take that failed marriage, failed pictures and failed A-list to pursue other opportunityies.
.
All is fair in live and war ! There are all sort of opportunity out there. It’s her for the taking.
.
And I hope she does. So I say - Go Jen !!!!!!!
