> [@Dijon Warlock](#): > > And I have thought that since the very first episode of _PoF_ (even though JLH didn’t join the cast until later). Lacey has always been a major fox. Dude, she was like 12 when she started on that show. Are you sure you’re not confusing Neve Campbell in there somewhere? ---

You just can’t beat the way she combines (seeming) innocent wholesomeness with those bodacious tatas. She’s a winner in my book. ---

She’s 26, so we’ve probably got about eight years before she heads over to _Playboy_ in a oh-no-my-youth-is-slipping-away-so-I-better-get-the-nude-photos-taken-while-there’s-still-time panic. ---

Re: Christina Ricci and Jennifer Connolly: I was always under the impression that it wasn’t surgical breast reduction so much as “I’ve dieted away all my bodyfat” breast reduction. These days Jennifer Connolly is basically flat-chested - no-one would get such severe reduction surgery, surely. ---

Well if it wasn’t for her looks she would not of gone far at all, she looks ok I guess. Definately overrated. Give me Jessica Alba anyday 😃 ---

> [@Dijon Warlock](#): > > Have you seen a movie called “Tart”? Lacey, Mischa Barton, Dominique Swain, and others. Not claiming that it’s a cinematic masterpiece, but…look at the roster of actresses… > > Just sayin’… But when it comes down to it, it helps if the movie is good. Case in point: _Jawbreaker_, with one of the hottest female casts in recent memory: Rose McGowan, Rebecca Gayheart (the Noxzema girl), Julie Benz (Darla from _Buffy_ and _Angel_), and Judy Greer (Kitty from _Arrested Development_). All sexy and hot, but even I’ve never been able to make it through that movie. And Mischa Barton is a skeleton. ---

> [@astro](#): > > 😕 Neither site features any nudity. I checked before linking. “Workplace safe” doesn’t just mean nudity, it means anything that you wouldn’t want your boss to see if you accidentally clicked on it, and your boss was walking by. That includes suggestiveness, or even large red letters saying, “Find Hot Nubile Young Teens.” In this case, a butt with a string bikini. Just to be clear: we’re not censoring links, per se. We’re saying reality is that someone at work can click on a link inadvertently, while scrolling along. We want to try to avoid embarrassment for such, by requiring a second click, or some such action. In this case, I’ve disabled **astro** ’s link by adding spaces. Anyone who wants to see the link, just copies and deletes the spaces. That way, you’ll not get that site on your screen unintentionally. And that’s our only concern. ---

> [@GuanoLad](#): > > Dude, she was like 12 when she started on that show. Are you sure you’re not confusing Neve Campbell in there somewhere? Yes, I’m sure I’m not confusing Neve Campbell in there somewhere. Don’t get me wrong, Neve is _also_ a major fox (and also has been since “Party of Five”), but I’m not confusing the two. Sure, Lacey was twelve. So was I, at one point (way before her, but still). Thus, I will stand by my claim (based on personal experience) that “she has always been a major fox”, because she has been. That (for the record) does NOT equate to “I had sex with her,” so her age is not really an issue here (at least, IMHO). She’s been cute as hell from the get-go, and hasn’t lost any traction in that competition by growing up. > [@Big Bad Voudoo Lou](#): > > And Mischa Barton is a skeleton. You’re certainly entitled to your opinion (aren’t skeletons normally _bereft_ of flesh?), but she’s got one of the most wonderfully sculpted faces this side of…whassername. You know, that chick with the thing. That was in that one movie. Ah: Katie Holmes. I wouldn’t kick any of them out of bed for eating crackers. Especially all at once. Signed, Crackers ---

These days Jennifer Connolly is basically flat-chested - no-one would get such severe reduction surgery, surely. Yeah, except both of them were pretty skinny at times when they had large breasts. Especially Connelly, but Ricci too. They’d probably have to be Skeletors to diet off their naturally plenteous boobage. Connelly’s looking a little Skeletoral in some of her photos, but not THAT Skeletoral, and Ricci still has that nice, round face of hers. With the total lack of evidence, wild speculation such as this will have to do, I guess. ---

> [@WordMan](#): > > I think it was filmed for the Japanese market and banned in the U.S. Lots of stars film commercials in non-U.S. markets and don’t want them shown here. This is discussed above… Well, if it’s a voluntary decision not to show the commercial in the US market, then the word “banned” isn’t being used properly. “Banned” implies some third party refusing to allow a film to be shown, most often the government being that third party, though sometimes it’s a private group like the Catholic Legion of Decency which bans works from Catholics who are dumb enough to pay attention to them. But if I produce a film in Japan and then don’t market it in the US, I haven’t banned it, because it’s my film and I can do as I like with it, for the most part.
