So if Edward Cullen is the most over-rated actor in Hollywood right now (which he is in my opinion), I would suggest Megan Fox is the most over-rated actress. While she's got that whole "look at me, look at me" thing going for her (because she is attractive...let's be honest), she has yet to prove to me she's got the chops to truly make her mark in Hollywood as a solid actress. What's really tainted her in my book is her attitude. Everything I've seen her in (interviews, award shows, red carpets, etc.) she just seems so stuck up! Dear Megan Fox - Get over yourself.
In a recent article from Access Hollywood I read on Yahoo.com, Fox recently referred to Transformers 2 movie-director Michael Bay as "a nightmare to work for," likening him to dictating tyrants like Hitler or Napoleon. She claims that Bay "almost killed her" and her fellow Transformers co-star Shia LeBeouf by having them do "insane things that insurance would never let you do." Some would argue that Ms. Fox shouldn't bite the hand that feeds her since Bay played a role in putting Megan Fox on the map. Others would say maybe Director Bay is a bit of hard baller. My opinion? Bay knows how to make a sa-weeeeeet action packed blockbuster film - this we know. And...this just in: Transformers is a sa-weeeeet action packed blockbuster film, action being a movie genre that is typically known for scenes containing lots of stunts, special effects, explosions, and the like. Umm...yeah. Therefore, I imagine working for Michael Bay must be like doing physical therapy - you gotta work hard and at times it might hurt or seem crazy, but you do it anyway and benefit in the long run.
So to you, Megan Fox - if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen...or grow a pair. There are plenty of young hot hollywood starlets who could easily take your role in these blockbuster movies...even one of those girls from High School Musical or something.
I read an article in which she said that she knows that Transformers 1 and 2 were not meant to stretch her acting skills.
ReplyDeleteThat being said, I agree with you that she is overrated, but more overexposed than anything. For only being in two big movies, those being part of a franchise, I think she's too well known. And we all know why.
Same with Robert Pattinson. He's only starred in 1 big movie, but I think with Robert the craze makes a little more sense b/c he plays such a well known character, at least well known to probably about 95% of the 12 — 19 year-old girl population.
If Fox really wants to be respected as an actress and not just eye candy she'll have to pick her roles carefully. But, a job's a job so maybe she's okay doing films that won't really show that she can really act well.
I don't see why she did the sequel if she felt her life was in danger and didn't want to be victimized by a tyrannical director. What a nut! I don't even find her attractive, Bogie. Not at all. Maybe if I didn't nearly vomit every time I see her then I would possibly find her pleasing to the eye, but the tattoos don't help. Trash.
