"Rumor has it" is the most recent of a long, unbroken string of flops since she left "Friends". She is fairly good looking and talented, but she is like a box-office albatross? What's the deal?

Because she can't act for shit. She should make porn.

most movies today are bombs. Hollywood is recycling old stories and throwing in weird-ass plot lines that turn good stories into shit.

Which will probably flop too.

you can check rough box office returns at the imdb. Jsut looking quick her movies have not done amazingly (Bruce Almighty did OK)

This is a problem many tv actors have. They just cant make it on the big screen. It's kind of weird seeing tv lose its stigma to film actors though. There are a bunch on tv now.

she sucked that one season she was on the cast of Living Color as well, long before Fagriends.

she was in Office Space, that wasn't a bomb...

I thought she did well in "The Good Girl"

She was, uh, 'distracted' when she learned that Brad was Angeline Jolie's new Baby-Daddy?

Well, according to the Tattler.

She takes crappy parts (with a few supporting cast exceptions already mentioned).

If you cut her hair off,she has a man face.This is the reason her movies suck,she has a man face.

She became a star on tv because of her always erect nipples. How do you follow that up on the big screen?

Poor choice of scripts ,maybe an agent not doing his job,and maybe a reflection that the types of charecters she portrays is not what the American public is currently looking for in its movie actresses.The days of the perky Meg Ryan All American girl next door was a 90s thing. Plus,Jennifer is pushing 40, which is a tough age for actresses.

she'll always be seen as the girl from 'friends'. kind of like the guy that played luke skywalker never being able to do anything else.

Interesting you bring that up. I will try and stay within the bounds of the board rules here, but I will say there is a grainy but legit picture of her from a long time ago topless, and one seems to have an inversion issue. After that I always figured she wore a bra which faked the state you mention.

I did like her in Office space in her supporting role as the girlfriend.

Mark Hammel (spelling?) was in Wing Commander 3 (live action video game), and I think he's done a few voices, but yeah, that kinda ruined his career.

The same applies to the guy that plays Tony Soprano.

I remember thinking that she was perfect for that role, a generic good looking girl working at a TGI Fridays.

Only good movie she was in was office space. Only good thing about her being in friends are the perpetual headlights that she beamed on every show. They must have had the thermostat on the set below 60 or something.

Tom Selleck, who in my opinion is a great actor, has this exact same problem. Golden boy on TV and absolute bomb on the big screen.

+1! When they finally reach the point where they are reduced to remaking King Kong, and making major-budget movies about homosexual cowboys, you know they are desperate for any ideas- as well as blinded by their hyper-liberal, out-of-touch-with-the-rest-of-America politics....

I don't know, reading the reviews of the movie right now. I don't know if it will be worth paying $3.50 for a rental to sit through 2 hours of a bad movie for a 4 second view of boobs.

Seems like movie actresses don't get their wings until they get at least one "ugly" role...

Recent Oscar Winners (off the top of my head)
Charlize Theron "Monster"
Halle Berry "Monsters' Ball"
Hillary Swank "Boys Don't Cry, Million Dollar Baby"

She needs a role that will let make her gain 30 lbs, become a lesbian, get smacked around a little, get done doggie style on a couch by Billy Bob Thornton, lose a leg and die tragically and she'll own Hollywood

I don't think it became a hit until it hit DVD and then transformed into a bit of a cult film.

Oh, and BTW, in The Good Girl it's tough to make out her boobies, but you can kinda see 'em if you pause it or go slo-mo. It's not like their just out there in all their glory in good lighting for the world to enjoy.

I think Aniston is totally hot. I don't care what anyone says.

"She's the One" didn't totally suck for what it was supposed to be, and the soundtrack is an awesome (and frequently overlooked) Tom Petty album.

Let's face it, she's really gotta just break down and get nekkid on film.

Maybe even a hot barechested makeout scene with another chick....in a hot tub...or a sauna...

Is your answer the same for slumping male actors? I don't think a naked scene sells lots of tickets except to pimply teen males. Given the trend towards family movies making the most money,I think you'd be waiting a while anyways.

No, I don't care to see two men going at it. Nor do I think it would do much in the long run for her career.

I'd just like to see it. It makes me feel all funny inside just thinking about it.

She sucks as an actress thats why....just like Sandra Bullock(spelling?) both have looks but ZERO acting skills. Jennifer Aniston has more of a standup comic talent than that of a part cast actress and it shows in everything she does.

Sandra Bullock is like an automaton.....she ought to take a few valium before she plays a part, it might help loosen her up.
