Saw the Hulk yesterday and Connelly is just emaciated! What happened to her? Did she have an illness or something? Too bad. She was so lovely. She’s seems to have aged well; she just needs some flesh on her bones.
The technical term is “eating-disorder.”
I thought the term was “actress in Hollywood”.
After I saw A Beautiful Mind, I said, “For a very beautiful woman, Jennifer Connelly sure looks like hell.” It’s not just that she’s underweight, she really looks unhealthy. Even her hair looked dull, and I’m sure she was getting professional Hollywood help with it. Unless she’s suffering from some other medical problem, I’d say eating disorder too.
How old is she anyway?
32, according to her IMDB page.
And from their picture, I’d have to agree she looks pretty emaciated. Oh well. I can always go rent Inventing the Abbotts.
Or Labyrinth, back when she looked like a human being.
Or Rocket Man. Hubba-hubba!
D’oh! I meant The Rocketeer!
Inventing the Abbots is in the $5.88 DVD bin at Wal-Mart. I like Jennifer Connelly a lot (mainly after Rocketeer and Career Opportunities)… is this a movie worth buying, considering I haven’t seen it yet?
Well, she married to ABM co-star Paul Bettany (Chancer from A Knight’s Tale) she is 7 months pregnant now, I am assuming she has gained weight for the pregnancy - maybe she’ll keep some of it.
Yeah, she’s in Rocketman. She helps him Burn Down the Mission with a Candle in the Wind. 
If you’d like to see her get nekked, it’s worth buying.
Excuse me, I need to go to Walmart now…
Career Opportunities. Just the poster is fine (since the movie really sucks).
I doubt that Connelly has an eating disorder. She started out being the Babe in movies like the Rocketeer, did some pretty wild stuff in some indy movies like Requiem for a Dream and also showed she had some acting chops to go with her killer bod, then she won the Oscar for A Beautiful Mind. Now she’s “A” film material. So she whacks her boobs down to “A” film actress size and starves herself thin because she’s 32 and like most actresses thinks “thin” = “beautiful.”
“Thin” does not equal “beautiful” to regular guys, but I don’t think we count in Hollywood.
I’m so bummed. I’ve had a fanboy crush on Jenny ever since I saw her in Labrynth. She looked sexy as hell in Dark City. But during some parts of Requiem For A Dream you could really tell she was getting Hollywood skinny disease. Is it just me, or had her perfect breasts wasted down to nothing in Hulk?
I so want the old Jennifer Connelly back…
If you want a good dose of old Jenny, try
Dark City and The Hot Spot. THS is a little slow, but hey - full frontal Jenny! Dark City is one of my favorite movies of the last ten years.

Can’t believe I forgot Dark City! I love every moment of that damn movie, and she is goddesslike in it, especially in her few scenes as a nightclub singer.
You win the “Best Post of the Day” award. 
She sure used to have amazing breasts, eh? Amazing body all around.
However in Requiem for a Dream, she was playing a junkie and I do believe getting good and skinny was required for the part (if she wasn’t already, I don’t know). I know Jared Leto shed something like 25 pounds to play Harry.

It was definitely the right look for the movie, but I just didn’t like it. Really bugged me how skinny she was. So in that sense, I guess it worked perfectly!
