Beautiful Girl Reminder

Just reminding you guys that "Beautiful Girl" starring Marissa Jaret Winokur will air in less than a half hour on the east coast on ABC Family. It won't be the best movie, but should be fun!

I can't stand this. It's only 20 minutes through and I have heard "you don't have to be thing to be beautifull" 2,000 times....ok we get the point.

Barry called me. "Aren't you watching Marissa?"

"No, I'm too tired. I've had a hellish day and I'm pooped. I'm going to sleep."

"You have NO idea how awful she is. (and Barry adored her in HAIRSPRAY, btw) The camera is RIGHT on top of her and she's all big hair, big boobs and a ooky marshmallow syrupy smile. You can't watch her. She's unbearable. She's TOO over-the-top... you want to scream. I turned it off after 15 minutes."

Looks like he's not alone! G'nite, keeds!

Al Dente for once I totally agree with you:P I turned it off before the end. Can we say repulsive? Very. It seems like the only roles she can play are the "Im proud to be heavy" ones. Gosh I would love to give her a makeover.

I think many of my detractors are going to agree with me 100% this time. It was way too obvious. You did't miss anything but food for nightmares, Namo.

OK so the theme of the movie is cute but I hate ABC Family movies they are so poorly written I want to scream watching them. This is the first one I have sat the whole way through and it was only because I like Marissa and Fan is funny well normally. But I did really like the story behind the bad writing I mean it was why to predictable and all but Marissa good I like the girl from Hills Burrow haha. Oh well I do tend to agree with everyone it was pretty offal and I couldn't sit through it again but I have seen worse.

I think it's awesome that heavy women are starting to appear more in the main stream of entertainment now we need better writers and for these women to get roles that have nothing to do with there weight just get normal that anyone can play. I got in a huge argument with my friends over this the other day. She thinks excepting heavier people in entertainment makes it ok for little kids to get fat and how everyone is worried with the obesity of American. But people are people no matter what they look like and it's about time they started putting people who aren't size four and under on TV. Maybe if they did that more when I was younger I wouldn't have had the issues I did when it came to my weight. But that's a completely different topic sorry.

and yes Fran is very creepy in the Old Navy adds

She sounded horrible. To anyone who said her Tracy Turnblad voice was a character voice, now we know that they were wrong. She sounds awful all the time; out of pitch, tongue hanging out her mouth, nasal singing. I'll say it again...awful, awful, awful!

Ugh, Ugh, Ugh...I never saw Marissa in Hairspray...the only time I ever heard her was at the Tony's performance, which I know wasn't the best quality for various reasons, but I wasn't impressed then and I'm sure not impressed now. The Hairspray OCR is certainly something I won't be investing in...ever. Why is it that some people don't understand that there are key differences between stage acting and film acting? Especially in expressions...on stage everything has to be dramatic and overexagerrated so that the audience can see it. But its not necessary on film and it seems like Marissa never got that memo.

Getting to see Mark Consuelos was a nice treat, however. :)

The movies was just OK. Poor OK. It was a fun family film with a good message, but the quality was awful! Does Fran have to have that laugh in everything she does???

---

This was one of the worst movies I have ever seen! First of all, I know that for films the actors have to lip-sink to their own voice, but Marissa couldn't even do that. It was so obvious she wasn't singing live. I did like the characters in the movie, but Fran Drescher is really not believable as the mother. I know she's in her late 40's, but she sure doesn't look it. When I saw Fran in the adds, I thought she was going to be playing some Pageant Judge or something; not the mother of 2 girls in their mid-late 20's. I was hoping for some funny "Miss Congeniality" type of movie....but I couldn't even stay awake to finish watching it.

By the way

I noticed that MJW was an associate producer on the show. How did she get that credit? Did she put money into the show and if she did where did she get it from? Hairspray couldn't have paid her that much.

ok, i'll admit, i've been really bitter since she beat bernadette out for best actress... but this movie REALLY WAS AWEFUL!!!! i couldn't watch it either! i tried... to pay some respect, but i really couldn't do it! it was near painful! ugh! bad news!!! i tried to stay positive but just decided i had had enough and went to sleep. OH MAN! i never saw her in hairspray but i hope she was better in that... i almost feel bad...
