Good looks, no acting ability.... Megan Fox was born for porn, but I do wonder how she got into "standard" films?

Oh wait... figured it out... nevermind.

Yeah, that's the only three dimensional aspect of her acting prowess.



THIS woman on the other hand has charisma, grace, strength and intelligence. A few of the fundamentals that make a woman attractive to me.

*Edit*

*Drools* I'd so go fanboy if I ever met her.

I motion we replace all parts to be played by Megan Fox with Scarlett Johansson. Providing superlative eye candy and someone who can actually act.

All in favour?

NOTE: This is your opinion on her acting ability, not anything else.

....

Okay. You can comment on her personality and lack of respect towards people too.

OT: She can't act. She was kind of just "there" in the first two Michael Bay "Transformers" movies and from what I've seen in "Jennifer's Body", she can't act for shit and was only there for her body.

She also lacks respect and when Steven Spielberg has to tell you to fire someone, you listen and hopefully make sure the person in question never works again since they got fired for being a complete asshole. But she's in that movie "Passion Play" so obviously "someone" doesn't care about Spielberg's opinion.

Your thoughts?
None of what you said should come as a revelation. Look at Tara Reid, for Chrissakes. Only people who can't be honest with their selves about their crushes will claim that she's even a marginal actress. Regarding her "respect" and what happened with Transformers, no one really knows for sure. Michael Bay may be fantastic as a human being, but as a filmmaker he's an asshole.

I personally don't care for Megan Fox for 2 main reasons. 1. She is literally a head-turner. You see one of the tens of thousands of women who look like her in your peripheral vision, and likely your brain will receive a signal telling you to turn your head. But, upon closer inspection, you'll find that she's hot exactly like those other tens of thousands of women, with nothing truly unique about her look. And that her eyes are vacant (Oh my god, I'm getting limp already!). And then she'll likely open her mouth, at which point my arrow will be directed toward the Earth's core. Which brings me to... 2. Fox conducts herself in interviews in a way that makes it clear she's extremely concerned with what other people think about her, and willing to be incredibly insincere to improve this. People who state that we're all inherently bisexual and simply conditioned by society to be straight are just as full of shit as people who say that everyone's straight and that gays and bi's are just perverts or confused. The difference is that the former are trying to impress everyone with what a (manufactured) free spirit they can be. She also said that she used to go to comic-con before she was famous to pick up vintage Ninja Turtle T-shirts. Lying to feed the fantasy of your fans isn't sexy.

Mother fucking ninjad on the first post. Well gentlemen, it appears I am among my people.
Indeed.

I went in here hoping I'd be the one to get a clever snipe like "What acting ability?"

I knew it wasn't going to happen.

ANYWAY...

Yeah, she can't act. To me, she comes across as more... attempted temptress? No... She doesn't even get *that* much. Even in movies where she's a main character, she doesn't do anything good for the role she plays. At least, in my opinion.

As much as I'd like to just go out on a limb and say that she can't act at all, I don't want to do that just yet.

I've only seen three movies she's been in, two of them being the Transformers films. (The other is Jonah Hex, if you wanted to know.)

Now, action movies in general don't really consist of good acting, because it isn't required. She fulfilled her job as the love interest and eye-candy for the audience, and therefore did the job fine. Tell me, really, would you go into either of those films thinking "hey, we might see an Oscar-winning performance today"? No. And if you were, you don't know the subject matter we're dealing with here very well.

Once I see her in a couple of dramas, then I'll decide. Passion Play, even though it has gotten terrible reviews, interests me strictly because of the cast. I will see it, and that's likely the best chance Fox has actually gotten to truly act.

Oh, and I think that acting alongside CGI will always be really difficult, so the all of the Transformers actors should not be judged on their acting ability based on those film. (Or at least, the parts that feature the robots. So, around 50% of the entire films. ;p)

I think she's a very poor actress, she doesn't emote and she spends most of her time with a blank face. She exists in most movies as nothing but pointless eye candy and she even managed to overdo and mess up the 'Evil Demon Seductress' role.

Plus, I hear she isn't very nice in real life, if the remarks by crewmembers who worked on Transformers are any indication. Maybe her poor acting wouldn't be so obnoxious if she at least came across as a decent person.

She is not as bad in the other movies that she does in Transformers she is a bit boring. I also don't think she really deserves the hate as she is not the one who casts the people in the rolls and she is also not the person that spurs the actors on to do well. So given that she seems to be doing the job she was asked to do she is alright.
I beg to differ. Her presence made Jonah Hex, an already below average movie, considerably worse.

she got fired by Spielberg not for being an asshole but for making a comment which was inappropriate. and Spielberg did the right thing. but just because he fired her doesn't mean she's banned from acting in hollywood (and you'd have to piss off a lot of people to accomplish that). her acting abilities are average at best but if she trained a little bit better i think she would be better for it. and should lay off the ww2 material when describing directors.

Yaap, she's just screen filling. If anything, her career and skill as an actrice is a good representation of Mister Bay himself; on the surface she might be pretty to look at, but when you look under that thin veneer you see it's devoid of substance, quality and mostly just hot air.

That is, she as an actress. I of course have no idea what she's like in person.

But you know what's the worst about her? This:

Such a waste to see a pretty cute girl, despite all the make-up there, transform into a hideous Generic Bimbo Nr.6483. Fuck you Hollywood.

The fact that's she's mostly plastic maybe?

Megan Fox is not bad to look at. I wouldn't complain if I woke up next to her, I'll say that.
