Azure has it down pat, but its still fun to do even if it is futile. I have a 5 year ongoing argument with my girlfriend as to who the most versatile actor is. I say it's Johnny Dep. She says it's Sean Penn. Maybe that's not a good comparison because it's such a silly argument, because it's clearly Johnny Dep.
You looked at that entire 100 list and still think Aniston is #2-4 in Looks + Talent?
Actually I didn't look at the list (only surf at work and no way was I clicking that link), just the people yall were listing+my general feelings. For me the thing about Anniston is that she has that "Apple Pie" beauty. Classic, ageless, persistent. Nothing exotic or unexpected, just goes down smooth. The way she is portrayed in the media falls in with that as well.
She always looks like she has a cold or has been crying a lot. Also her recent "whoopsie" kind of removes her from the American Pie category.
Too exotic and way too short.
Too exotic, and kind of looks like she used to be a guy. But she should be up there.
Easily top 5, but she's too young to make the #1-3 spot. Age before beauty I always say.
I could go on and on but really? I'd love to hear what roles Aniston did that outdid the big roles those have played in today's media. Not to mention comparing them in physical looks.
As for her roles she's no Oscar type actor, she's just a middle of the road Americana actor. She has done some slightly more risky roles that haven't ended up in particularly great movies, like
Management. The Breakup was a pretty fantastic movie though.
But you can't discount Friends either. Even if you hated the show, you can't deny the fact that it was probably one of the most popular sitcoms of all time. And this IS a popularity contest. Within that show she is the only one that has really spun off a secondary career (although David Schwimmer was amazing in Band of Brothers and hilarious in Curb Your Enthusiasm.)
I dunno. There is just something that appeals to me in a very warm way about her. She's like the Prom Queen that some people like to hate on but is actually a pretty decent chick.
