There's way too much vitriol flying around here - please remember what admin posted recently about avoiding personal attacks
Quite an innocent opinion was expressed initially and , unless Palicki is your sister I don't see that it warrants the vehemence you have shown. And ok, if she has been in 1successful show (but not so successful we see it in Europe, unlike the others where she has been in an odd episode) one out of 5 including her film projects is an 80% fail rate, which isn't good.
You obviously like her. Thats fine, others don't that's fine too.
Others like me have yet to see her in anything so I don't know if she's any good or not as an actress, but looks wise for me she.'s just mediocre.
But let's all just keep it polite between posters, please?
Hmmm, your self declared "I don't see etc…" pretty much covers your whole post.
keep it polite between posters
How about polite to Ms. Palicki?
unless Palicki is your sister I don't see
A long time ago in a superheroine bondage forum far, far away…
Someone posted along the lines of "don't you guys think SuperBecca is getting long in the tooth?" SuperBecca, nice 30something community participant, took photos of herself in costume that the community appreciated. You should've seen all the people that jumped to her defense, me included. She must've been my sister. Must've been everyone's sister. OK, consider Adrianne my sister so you can see.
too much vitriol
vehemence you have shown
"Things a Mr. X fanboy would say?"
(I'm thinking of an old TV gameshow. Probably not shown in Europe.)
And what do you call this stuff:
"jump the shark, kiss of death, jump the shark (2nd x), kiss of death (2nd x), kiss of death (3rd x), failed, failed, failed, failed, flop, flat." And also the condescending crap to me (I don't care though, bring it.)
See what you want to see, tallyho. I'm not in denial or anything, I know I shot right back.
guest stars don't kill established series
and guest star in not-established series, guest star on the moon, small parts, big parts, recurring, non-recurring, regular, semi-regular, voice over, parts on series only shown on tuesdays, etc. etc. that shits all mute now. All that "small part, one time appearances, etc" additional criteria after OP of what doesn't count, what counts, is all BS subterfuge anyway. Ridiculous hypothesis like
[any actor's name, any person's name] = kiss of death doesn't become less ridiculous no matter what conditional criteria you or anyone adds to it. This hypothesis' only function is to insult.
You obviously like her. Thats fine, others don't that's fine too.
Obvious agreement here.
1successful show (but not so successful we see it in Europe,
Friday Night Lights is an American Football drama. I'm going to guess the American Football part is why it's "not so successful" in Europe.
if she has been in 1successful show
She's been in more than one. Was so pre this weekend, and especially now after (see other thread). But I only had to list
one to counter when Mr. X said
every major project this chic has been in flopped.
One counters
Every (in this context), EVERY time.
80% fail rate, which isn't good.
Your 80% so-called fail rate, erroneously arrived at: isn't good, isn't bad, it isn't anything: it's irrelevant, it's bogus. Some actors, think Dan Radcliffe, get an awesome role from the get go. Fortune smiling on some people happens. And that's great. Some actors struggle at first, take on whatever acting gig they can get cast for, do the best they can, and someday, may get better opportunities and get better and better roles. Some actors never get the break they're seeking. Actors' careers have various journeys. Some wannabe actors never get cast. Competition is fierce. And from the stacks of 8x10s I've seen, it's about 5:1 actresses seeking parts vs actors seeking parts.
Adrianne Palicki's plenty good. Her career is in good shape, progressing nicely. And for good reason. She's a good actress. By actual acting standards, not slamboy she's-not-pretty-to-me standards. She's plenty pretty, attractive, to most people with eyes. She's doing just fine. Directors and Producers, Casting Directors and Agencies know their jobs; when they cast Adrianne, they know what they're doing. How many actresses did she get past to get the Lady Jaye role? Lots. Why'd they go with her, pay her really good money? Cause she's GOOD.
Quite an innocent opinion was expressed initially
You're funny.
Good joke. "Thing a Mr. X fanboy would say?"
This whole thread was started for no other reason than for Mr. X to knock Adrianne Palicki. That's it, that's it's sole purpose. To make fun of her, by someone who doesn't even know her, never met her, and yet has a grudge against her for apparently, well, I don't know what she did to him. There's nothing valid in his opening hypothesis, it's just a number of insults and bad jokes. I'd suggest Mr. X can do better than this, but I actually don't think he can. Clearly, this is who he is. He can't do any better than whine about something. Remember the whining Piracy thread that's gone now.
But success is the best revenge! See other thread.
