Well, I saw _Wanted._ Shitty movie, horrible plot, no cohesiveness, you don’t give a shit about any of the characters. Stupid slick over-the-top gunplay, and even among the various examples of the laws of physics being savagely violated, I could not dumb myself down enough to accept the part where the hero gets a steel rod jammed down the barrel of his handgun, pulls the trigger, and shoots out the rod, killing the bad guy. In real life, a barrel obstruction like that would cause the gun to explode and possibly kill you. But…God DAMN was Angelina Jolie fucking hot in this movie. The scene where she is standing completely naked after getting out of the hot tub thing, is what I’m specifically talking about. It was shot from behind, but what I wouldn’t give to see that shot from the front. Christ, Angelina, just do porn already. At the very least, do a “secret” sex tape. I mean, if I have to see her getting banged by some guy, you could do a lot worse than Brad Pitt. I know a lot of people think Jolie’s looks are overrated - but I ain’t one of 'em. ---

I think Angelina Jolie’s looks are overrated. In fact, I think she looks sickly. But then, we saw _Wanted_ yesterday and enjoyed the movie. ---

Turn the question around. Why do YOU find her so hot? Its not her “fault” that what she looks like triggers your libido. You have to look at why and how your libido got “programmed” in that way. You have to take responsibility. Its not what she is doing to you, its how you define your experience of seeing her. Would you still feel the same way if she was 60lbs heavier… if she had problem skin, if she farted out foul stink every 5 minutes? Look at yourself and your motivation(s)… tie that into reality… and (please) notice the nice woman sitting next to you… regards FML ---

No offense but what on earth are you talking about? You are overanalyzing this WAY too much, man. I like all women, I appreciate all kinds of beauty and different body types. I happen to think Angelina is hot. I don’t know why, I just do. What’s the difference? Why must you turn this into some kind of cosmic issue? ---

well, I guess it boils down to knowing yourself. If you want to know why stimulus “X” creates reaction “Y” in you, you have to look inwards, not outwards. Its not “cosmic”. its just a common sense answer to your basic question. regards FML ---

Again, no offense, but I’m going to chalk this up to your issues with the divorce that you mentioned, and leave it at that. I don’t know what in God’s name you’re talking about, and I don’t think it has anything to do with this thread (or anything to do with anything.) ---

Argent… its a direct response to the question… Why does “X” (Angelina Jolie) have to be so fucking hot? X is angelina Jolie, “Y” is the OP’s internal response to seeing her. I merely pointed out that the answer to that question is not “X”'s fault, but instead is a result of the perceiver’s predisposed, but unknown original condition. To be able to answer that question, one would have to know what the OP find’s “hot” and why “X” (AJ) meets those internally defined conditions. The assumption that those conditions are natural, universal or culturally panginimous is false. There are many times, places and societies that would not perecieve Ms jolie in the same manner. thus, the OP needs to explore thier internal motivations for a reasonalbe and rational explination of their initial question.

The title is a JOKE. “Why does she have to be so fucking hot?” I don’t literally believe that Angelina Jolie is deliberately being hot in order to torment me or something. Christ, this is ridiculous. I’m done with this philosophical psychobabble. You must be a big hit with the guys at the bar. ---

I think she’s spectacularly beautiful. My husband rates her as average at best. Go figure. There’s something about the way she carries herself that would make her sexy even if she wore a bag over her head. ---

I think she looks freakish. Everything on her face is over-sized, only it is on a normal head. She is a caricature of a woman, like she was drawn by a midway artist. I do not understand the infatuation. ---

[QUOTE=Kalhoun] There’s something about the way she carries herself that would make her sexy even if she wore a bag over her head. [/QUOTE] Yeah. She’s beautiful, obviously, but she’s not drop-dead classically beautiful like, say, Jennifer Connelly, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Ingrid Bergman, Hedy Lamarr, those gals. But one look at her and all I can think is “I bet she shags like a minx”. ---

Yesterday myself and one of my males friends were discussing ms jolies attractiveness or lasck thereof. Where he said that he couldnt really see what the big deal wa about her at the same time he would not kick her out of bed for making crumbs. I then said that it was her lips that particularly bothered me. I believe the quote was “she has lips like a post pregnancy belly”. We laughed so hard after that - we made it the quote of the day! I find her rather unattractive but y’know different strokes for different folks! ---

Her face seems gaunt to me. Her body is nice and she doesn’t look like she’s starving herself, but her face makes her look like she is. I was watching Wanted and kept noticing how harsh and angular her facial bones looked. ---
