zooey deschanel - damn, damn, damn does this woman look good

zooey is fit but seems like an awful person

or 'has an awful persona', w/e

yeah i guess it's kinda irksome but i've nothing against her really. plus, you know, she fine.

i will admit that she & him is sonic diarrhea

I thought we already decided that Lizzy Zaplan was the newer, better Zooey.

well, yeah

but i don't want her to be the new zooey

in 'hot tub time machine' she plays basically the exact same role as zooey in 'yes man': the hott young alt girl who teaches the older, sadsack dude how to live. actually think zooey pulled it off in that film whereas 'hot tub time machine' is a p.o.s not worthy of lizzy caplan. but the point sort of stands. an indie pin-up is no thing to be.

zaplan

woops.

Saw She & Him in Chicago, and I kept quizzing people to see if they can name three movies she's been in. Most knew "Elf" (seven years ago!) and many knew "500 Days," but few got a third. For the life of me I couldn't figure out why she was suddenly very famous*. Very weird.

*One person remembered she was in "Almost Famous!"

T***** ***** got his fill of hipster bangs and folk music at the She and Him concert last night. Now it's off to GaGa!

Her film roles often fall into the category of the “MPDG” (manic pixie dreamgirl), a cinematic trope defined by the Onion AV Club as “that bubbly, shallow cinematic creature that exists solely in the fevered imaginations of sensitive writer-directors to teach broodingly soulful young men to embrace life and its infinite mysteries and adventures.”

that listicle was some real OTM stuff (ie, Bringing Up Baby) and a bunch of other movies they kind of wrote around when they couldn't find enough to fill a list (ie, Annie Hall)

greenberg sends this whole phenomenon up imo

around "almost famous" + "all the real girls" era i found zooey deschanel really charming and an enjoyable actress, but after the third person told me that she's their 'celebrity crush' i've started to find her much more annoying. it seems kinda unfair, because it's not her fault, but an actress wonderful in small doses can quickly become really tedious on centerstage. she's cute, i guess, but i don't find her particularly compelling.

It's her eyes.

I don't know anything about her, haven't really seen any of her movies I don't think (except for Elf?), haven't heard her sing. I just thing she's purdy is all.

also, she has a doppleganger who once kissed a girl + liked it.

i think there's something inherently annoying about her beauty, but she is undoubtedly beautiful.

… haven't heard her sing.

Oh, except in Elf, I guess. That film was really a gamechanger for me

I decided to be more pragmatic and have an interest in her sister, instead. I mean, she's no pixie but she has some acting chops, a major network tv series, and can sing.

Love her sister!

her best role to date was in The Good Girl. I forgot she was even in Almost Famous. She needs to make a horror film or something.

Wouldn't Hot Tub Time Machine qualify as a horror show?

^That's Lizzy Caplan

Thank god!

also, she has a doppleganger who once kissed a girl + liked it.

ugh so not the same

Slideshow: Katy Perry & Zooey Deschanel - Twins?

ugh

I kno, it's a heartbreaker to find out teh indie chick u love looks exactly like the popular girl u hate

actually, she doesn't, even tho there is a strong resemblance. perry's face is all sorts of fucked with regard to proportion, it's like her eyes are 2 close together or her features are scrunched or something. not cute, and her style is even stupider

i dunno if zooey gets to be indie in a meaningful way after starring in 'the happening'

she is prettier than katy perry tho

some serious narcissism of small differences to say that Perry is substantively different in either looks or style from zooey

bigger boobs

Russell Brand v. the guy from that indie band

some serious narcissism of small differences to say that Perry is substantively different in either looks or style from zooey

not really. zooey's fey and trendy shtick strikes me as quite different from perry's over-effort in the vein of bold fashion, and the proportion of perry's features is much more out of whack than zooey's.

and i don't even like zooey deschanel, just sayin!

the true doppelganger:

how had I not noticed that our Zooey looks scarily similar to Sean Young in Blade Runner, when Sean Young in Blade Runner was my #1 girl when I was about 15 and Zooey is there or thereabouts now?

I prefer Selma Blair's face over Zooey's

I think it comes down to fox eyes vs. doe eyes

Selma Blair is incredible looking. Zooey is alright.

i watched tinman this week and zooey look like a muppet the whole time

Selma Blair looks like a young Kris Kardashian in that pic, ha.

she looks like an old selma blair in most everything else tbh

ey take it to the Selma Blair thread you lot. Oh that's right, there isn't one becuz she's no Zooey.

That's the worst photo of her I've ever seen.

SRSLY, she looks like Margot Kidder or something there.

I must admit, the crush was so on after first seeing her as the counter girl in the Good Girl. Great role.

selma ftw

wkiw

I wouldn't drop acid w/ her tho b/c her eyes would probably go all 'Precious Moments' & that would be hard to deal with.

selma ftw

Every time I see a picture of Ben Gibbard I am like, "how how how why why why" all over again.
