"Herbie, she's too young for you" = a little too thinly-veiled?

― Hurting (Hurting), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Just hold her down and force feed her a double cheeseburger. How hard could it be?

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:14 (twenty-one years ago)

I think the Bad News Bears remake will be better. I hope it is NC-17.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Tough! She's got those sharp little nails!

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:15 (twenty-one years ago)

Pshaw. I could break that bitch.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:15 (twenty-one years ago)

I think she looks fine. People, she's a high profile actress in Hollywood, there'll be plenty of time to eat later!

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Spencer you are a sick man.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:17 (twenty-one years ago)

is it so wrong that i want my unapproachable starlets to have dumps like a truck?

― strng hlkngtn, Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:19 (twenty-one years ago)

Alex, I'm serious! It doesn't look like she's dying or anything to me.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:20 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm going to tepidly back Spencer on this. Body image control is a part of the movie industry and that's not going to change. She is better as a redhead but she doesn't look emaciatedly skinny to me. Did she get a breast reduction or is that from shedding the pounds?

― M. White (Miguelito), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:21 (twenty-one years ago)

I'd just like them to look like they eat once in a while (dumps like a truck would be a bonus!)

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:21 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm always slightly weirded out by the knee-jerk negative reaction to skinny women.

Jess on the other hand is merely 'expressing' a preference.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:23 (twenty-one years ago)

The fact that this is a HOLLYWOOD enforced image doesn't make it any less unappealing.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:23 (twenty-one years ago)

i've seen this trailer SOOOOOOOO many times

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:24 (twenty-one years ago)

incidentally i saw kicking & screaming yesterday and it was bad

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:24 (twenty-one years ago)

Obviously there are actors who take it too far, and that's a problem, but there are plenty who gain or lose weight to take on particular roles. Brad Pitt pumps a lot of iron so he can play Achilles etc.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

you're killing my buzz, people

― strng hlkngtn, Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

She doesn't look emaciated? She looks like fucking Skeletrix.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

Again, I am 99% sure the picture in the red dress is photoshopped.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:27 (twenty-one years ago)

I hope so. The hair is still a nightmare.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

"Obviously there are actors who take it too far, and that's a problem, but there are plenty who gain or lose weight to take on particular roles. Brad Pitt pumps a lot of iron so he can play Achilles etc."

This isn't about Robert DeNiro. This about a system which basically dictates that you can't weigh more than 105 and be in a film. And this isn't skinny. Some people are born skinny and have high metabolism. This is starvation + ridiculous amounts of exercise + plastic surgery. It's pretty sick.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:28 (twenty-one years ago)

People, people. We will never agree on Lindsey Lohan's ideal weight.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:29 (twenty-one years ago)

― strng hlkngtn, Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:30 (twenty-one years ago)

Lindsey Lohan's ideal weight = the shot in the bikini, maybe 5 pounds more. Close thread, everyone go home.

― Alan Conceicao (Alan Conceicao), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:30 (twenty-one years ago)

How is this demand that women be heavier any less dictatorial?

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:31 (twenty-one years ago)

Personally I find Ms Lohan's body weight less of an issue than the fact that Herbie is an old, unsafe model of Beetle.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:32 (twenty-one years ago)

that's hollywood for you, tracer.

― s1ocki (slutsky), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:34 (twenty-one years ago)

did i ever mention on ilx that the vw bus my mom drove when i was a kid blew up?

― strng hlkngtn, Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:35 (twenty-one years ago)

"How is this demand that women be heavier any less dictatorial?"

Oh yeah, that's totally just as bad except no one is doing it.

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:36 (twenty-one years ago)

well, i am

― strng hlkngtn, Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:39 (twenty-one years ago)

STRONGO'S DESIRES WILL TOPPLE HOLLYWOOD'S BODY IMAGE HEGEMONY!

― Alex in SF (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:40 (twenty-one years ago)

Perhaps Ms Lohan negotiated with Hollywood that in exchange for her forced starvation the movie would feature an older Beetle with generous mudflaps.

― Tracer Hand (tracerhand), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:44 (twenty-one years ago)

All those in favor of watching Luna break Lindsay Lohan's will, raise your hand...

With puppies...

― Sexxitime (ModJ), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I find the notion that women should be round or curvy to be equally as arbitrary as anything that Hollywood supposedly "enforces."

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Whatever.

― Nice dodge (Alex in SF), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:52 (twenty-one years ago)

people! let us not forget what bought us here today. namely an anthropomorphic car film

― strng hlkngtn, Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:54 (twenty-one years ago)

I love you, Herbie.

RIDE THE BUG

― Jimmy Mod, Sultan of Sexxitime (ModJ), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:56 (twenty-one years ago)

(also, follow where that picture is linked from, if you dare)

― Jimmy Mod, Sultan of Sexxitime (ModJ), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:56 (twenty-one years ago)

I sense a lot of uncalled-for venom in the statements here about her being too thin.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:57 (twenty-one years ago)

THE PRESIDENTIAL PRAYER TEAM??????

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh baby

― Jimmy Mod, Sultan of Sexxitime (ModJ), Thursday, 12 May 2005 22:58 (twenty-one years ago)

it's not really that arbitrary, but whatever

― ()ops (()()ps), Thursday, 12 May 2005 23:00 (twenty-one years ago)

Why are you upset about people saying she's too thin? Who cares? I think she is, but I don't actually give a shit 'cause hey, her body, right? I just tend to want to force feed everyone a cheeseburger. Call it a character flaw if you must.

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 23:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Luna, I haven't eaten dinner yet...

― Jimmy Mod, Sultan of Sexxitime (ModJ), Thursday, 12 May 2005 23:03 (twenty-one years ago)

C'mere...

― luna (luna.c), Thursday, 12 May 2005 23:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Frankly luna, I was a little put off by statements like: "I could break that bitch" and "She looks like fucking Skeletrix" among others.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Thursday, 12 May 2005 23:03 (twenty-one years ago)

lighten up, dude

― ()ops (()()ps), Thursday, 12 May 2005 23:04 (twenty-one years ago)

don't worry poor widdew Windsay, Spencer will save you from those mean Internets!

i loved loved loved this movie. i giggled the whole way through it. the demographic of the audience was us, a family with 10 year old boy, another couple about our age, and an old man that sat behind us snoring for the whole movie until the Big Race, when he cheered really loud.

seriously, i know this movie is dumb, but i really enjoyed it.

Lindsay Lohan has hired a personal trainer - to put on weight. .
Speculation has been mounting in recent months that the sexy actress could be suffering from an eating disorder after she was repeatedly photographed looking stick-thin.
But although Lohan, 19, has always refuted the claims, she has employed a specialist trainer to help her bulk up.
Exercise coach Justin Gelband has put the 'Herbie: Fully Loaded' star on a special diet to restore her sexy curves and the star has purportedly gone up two dress sizes.

She said: "I'm working out with a trainer and eating healthily I want my boobs back".

― The Original Jimmy Mod: Kind Warrior (The Famous Jimmy Mod), Saturday, 20 August 2005 18:30 (twenty years ago)

Probably the same trainer as Nicole Richie's.
