WHHHYY, Kate, whhhyy?!?! (A Katherine Heigl tsk-tsking thread)

So I consider myself a pretty big Katherine Heigl fan, considering I've seen exactly none of her TV work and only one and a half of her movies. (The "half" being Knocked Up, which I abandoned in disgust, and I was pleased to hear her slamming it, also.)

That said, while I am a bit curious to see One for the Money, in spite of the lukewarm reviews, it is undeniable true that, following her terrific performance in the ridiculously entertaining 27 Dresses (I don't mind a well-done total froth of a rom-com from time to time, especially if it stars Cyclops and features Elton John karaoke), she's been in one horror after another: Killers, Life as We Know It, The Ugly Truth, New Year's Eve, and that stupid hospital show that's kept Kevin McKidd away from his big-screen destiny. What's worse is that, after so rightly castigating Apatow for his pre-Bridesmaids treatment of women, she went on to voluntarily choose even more such dreck.

And now we have the upcoming suck-hurricane of The Big Wedding, in which she plays a supporting role in De Niro's latest entry in his ongoing embarassment-off with Pacino. (Who seems to be taking some time off from that, but evidently hasn't told him.) Anyway, check out the trailer linked above if you dare, or just read the AV Club's Sean O'Neal's dissection of the same - it's pretty dire.

In sum: Kat, girl, you need to get yourself in some good movies, before it's too late! :klingon:

(Failing that, KaHei, there's always the mostly-improvised rom-com Kate and Gaith - I'll write the script, you pick the director!) :p
 
She doesn't know what she's doing. She left a very successful show, after shitting on the producers, she did a very successful movie, and then turned around and then shat on the writer/director... And she has made flop after flop. She chose these movies. She chose this course.

And now she's going to have to take the crap that she gets.
 
She is apparently extremely hard to work with and has burned her reputation with a lot of Hollywood. The reason why she keeps doing the "cookie cutter RomCom" movies is because those are the only parts she's getting offered. Some have even said that most are Studio projects she is executive producer on, and the directors don't have a choice on having her, and once they start to fail to no longer bring in the proper Money/Cost ratio, that her career is essentially over at that point.
 
I thought this was going to be something about an affair with someone named Stewart or Suppinar or something.
 
I personally never thought she'd survive that abrasive hair cut from half way through Roswell.

I like bossy bitches.

I reeeeeeeeeeeeally like bossy bitches.

I almost exclusively hunt them down.

So now, Katherine is even more beautiful to me.
 
Money is the biggest motivator and detriment to artistic expression...

Heigl knows what she's doing, in a few years she'll give the serious film roles thing a try.
 
They don't cookie cut from bad movies.

(They do, but they don't know that that's what they're doing when they do it.)

Meg Ryan made a good living out of making the same movie over and over again.

James bond too.
 
After she was in the cinematic masterpieces Under Seige 2: Dark Territory and Bride of Chucky her career had nowhere to go but down.
 
I think the only thing I've seen her in is Roswell, but I liked her in Roswell. Does that make me a Heigl fan?
 
Yes, you love her.

Executive producer of Grey's Anatomy Shondra Rhimes hates skinny-white-bitches.

She's spent years sharing that hate with America, taking it out on her harem of Skinny-white-bitches.

Grey's Anatomy is hilarious.
 
Barring a freakish coincidence, only a fan of Kathrine would repeatedly use the word "seriously" when referencing her Dream.

Seriously? SERIOUSLY?!:rofl:

Yeah.. seriously. The first few seasons of Greys Anatomy with the original cast were both hilarious and dramatic and had some really good episodes.

Part of the charm was Heigl who played her part so well that she really became one of the stars of the show who made herself a name (and was the center of perhaps the best season finale of the show).

After burning the bridge with Greys Anatomy she was typecast as a sort of next Meg Ryan.. cute, all american girl who gets to do one romcom after the other and it is doubtful she'll ever break out of that corner (or even if she wants to.. even if the movies suck it's a steady paycheck).
