whineupemily Posted February 12, 2010 at 11:38 PM Posted February 12, 2010 at 11:38 PM The movie is getting VERY bad ratings because of Taylor Swift's acting. Her "cameo" has not done well for this movie. After seeing the clips of her in the movie, I have to agree with the critics. Her performance is beyond cringe worthy. Thanks but, Id rather watch a lame Lifetime movie with Miley Cyrus and a turtle being lovers. :) Quote
Black Kitten Posted February 13, 2010 at 12:03 AM Posted February 13, 2010 at 12:03 AM (edited) i thought i've read enough of the reviews of the movie and i actually didn't see any review about Taylor's "bad" acting. and if there's one, i would love to see that. am i missing something? it was a cameo role and i highly doubt a cameo role could actually ruin an entire movie. i knew it. if the movie flops or gets horrible reviews, people will immediately blame Taylor's cameo appearance. how unfair. i'm planning to see the movie next week to see it for myself.

whineupemily Posted February 13, 2010 at 12:27 AM Posted February 13, 2010 at 12:27 AM "Poor Taylor Swift. Turns out everyone liked her a lot better when she was an underdog struggling to get a word in. Now that the teen singer -- whose MTV VMA speech was famously, rudely, interrupted by Kanye West back in September -- has our undivided attention, she's facing a growing backlash that's getting stronger and snarkier by the minute. The tide began turning for the statuesque country upstart after a less-than-dazzling (most frequently described as "pitchy") performance with Stevie Nicks at this year's Grammys -- where she won four awards including album of the year. Following the debacle, her label head -- and Naomi Judd -- came to her defense, which only rankled the masses including Kelly Clarkson. Now, with Friday's release of "Valentine's Day," which nearly sags under the weight of so many Hollywood heavy-hitters, everyone's about to get a glimpse of her acting chops, which seemed more than passable when she hosted SNL in November. But early reports about the movie have been unkind, to put it mildly. "Some teen viewers may be drawn by the lure of the two Taylors, but their time onscreen together arguably reps the film's low point," writes Variety's Todd McCarthy regarding Swift's performance alongside onetime boyfriend Taylor Lautner. "Swift, especially, seems entirely undirected, as she jumps around, makes faces and jabbers on inanely. If she's to have a film career, she needs to find a skilled director to tamp her down and channel her obviously abundant energy." The Observer film critic, Rex Reed, is even more dismissive of Swift's "Valentine's Day" performance than he is of the movie itself: "This labored artifice strings together an 'all-star cast' (by today's dubious definition, anyway)," Reed writes in his review of the Garry Marshall-directed movie, "that runs the gamut from tone-deaf Flavor of the Moment Taylor Swift and movie werewolf Taylor Lautner to veteran Oscar winner Shirley MacLaine." Even OK! Magazine, which spills endless ink charting Swift's every move, goes for the blond starlet's jugular. OK!'s movie critic, Phil Villarreal, dismisses Taylor as "not an actress," adding that Swift proves such a criticism by putting in a "regrettable" performance. "The movie isn't awful, and nor is it an award winner," Villarreal declares, "unless you count Swift's frontrunner status to add a worst supporting actress Razzie to her shelf full of Grammys." Ouch. The lone holdout seems to be Time Out New York critic, Joshua Rothkopf, who lauds Swift for, get this, convincingly appearing vacant: "Blond awards-magnet Taylor Swift reveals an unexpected gift for self-deprecating sunniness, chattering vacantly in an elevator to a stranger." Looks like Swift could really use another sympathy-grabbing interruption. Paging Kanye West! Quote
Black Kitten Posted February 13, 2010 at 12:56 AM Posted February 13, 2010 at 12:56 AM ^ thanks. highly appreciated. but hold on... Aw they should have made her bigger on the poster! The arch way and dress, are just GA-ORRRRRGEOUS! I just listened to the song for the first time, because i wanted to see what you meant about sounded too poppish already, and yes, i completely agree. It just had the feel of a pop/country shania song, something of that sort! ahaha, loved it though! She looks fabulous in the video![/b] what happened? you actually liked Taylor before. you only had good words for her. and now all of a sudden, you're bashing/mocking her in the Grammy thread and now here. acting like you never liked her and that she's the worst thing that happened. was it because of the off performance at the Grammys? sorry i just don't get the hatred. anyways, i love Lautner and am a big Julia Roberts fan. can't wait to see the whole thing.

You know I didn't write that full article myself right? It was a full on quote from somewhere. Never said I didn't like Taylor as an artist! No hatred here! Obviously I didn't like her Grammy performance, or the acting in the movie. But I respect her and her choices for her career! Plus "Love Story" is the 8th top played song on my iTunes. Obviously that says something. Quote

whineupemily Posted February 13, 2010 at 01:11 AM Posted February 13, 2010 at 01:11 AM when our beloved CELINE was mentioned! :clap: :clap: God those are the best moments in TV/Movies, when Celine is mentioned COMPLETELY unexpectedly! In the show "Popular", two of the main characters, Nicole and Brooke and shopping for a party, and Nicole goes "I'm telling you, your love stories tonight are gonna be SO hectic, Celine Dion is gonna call you for inspiration!"
