I last watched Silver Linings Playbook about a week or so go. I just adore that movie so freaking much. And Jen is just beyond great! I've seen it like 11 times already! The one i have as my avatar is one of my faves of her.

Here's actually my wallpaper on my computer.


But i probably have so many I can't just narrow it down to one.

I don't know. I've found a couple pics like this. I just typed Jennifer Lawrence wallpaper into Google and found this in the results. I found a few other pictures from this set.

As to Joy's Oscar eligibility: I wouldn't concern myself with that Dec 25th release date. That's the wide release, but make no mistake Davis Entertainment, and Fox 2000 intend to produce an Oscar contender. The film's release strategy will ensure that it's eligible.

I am a little concerned about Jen's chances now, though. While I have no trouble believing that a nomination could come her way, I worry that recent events might damage her chances of winning. Despite the Academy's recent attempts to infuse their ranks with fresh young inductees, they are still largely made up of old white dudes, who may not look favourably on Jen's present headaches.

Of course, I could be wrong, and it'll be a full year from now anyway, so it might not even matter at all by that stage.

If I'm honest though, it's David that I really want to see make a good run of it this time. He's been doing consistently superb work for years, and has only ever been an also ran. I think the humour that his movies generally contain has a tendency to make people dismiss them as lighter fare, which is a shame, and I hope he manages to convince them otherwise this time out.

Joy, is a real life drama about a woman who succeeds against all the odds. It's a truly American story, featuring perhaps America's best young actress (and still sweetheart). That's all the hallmarks of an Oscar contender. This might be the one that does it for him. Assuming the flick is up to snuff.


... oh, and I like your Avatar, Forever.

There will always be people attacking her. Just being famous will do that. But her words have been received positively by the majority.

Just be aware that the most people will read this story, say; 'good for her', and move on. A few will post messages to that effect in the comments section, but largely that will be a place for those whom she's annoyed. So expect bile, half baked misogyny, and a frustrated few fighting against it.

I admit, I did a little bit of that on US Magazine's site, where I found myself supported in my endeavor. As time passes the crazies will take over completely as the rest of us will move on, but she'll be fine and the world will show her respect and love by the metric ton.


Here's an example of the kind of suppoart, and even applause she's getting from the SLATE....


Jennifer Lawrence: “It Is Not a Scandal. It Is a Sex Crime.” Amen.

By Amanda Hess


Quote:
When hackers published private nude photographs of Jennifer Lawrence in August—and legions of so-called fans helped spread them around the Internet—Lawrence attempted to pen a statement in response. But “every single thing that I tried to write made me cry or get angry,” she tells Vanity Fair. “I was just so afraid. I didn’t know how this would affect my career.”

Now, Lawrence is speaking out in the magazine’s November issue—she appears on the cover under a line that reads, “It’s my body, and it should be my choice”—and she's openly acknowledging all the fear, anger, disgust, confusion, and even grim irony she experienced in the wake of the photos’ publication. In a preview of the interview published today, Lawrence responds to critics who scolded that she should have never taken the photographs at all: “I started to write an apology, but I don’t have anything to say I’m sorry for. I was in a loving, healthy, great relationship for four years.” She demolishes the presumption that a female sex symbol should have to laugh off the violation in order to preserve her cool, sexy image: “Just because I’m a public figure, just because I’m an actress, does not mean that I asked for this,” she says. “It does not mean that it comes with the territory. It’s my body, and it should be my choice, and the fact that it is not my choice is absolutely disgusting.” She challenges lawmakers and law enforcement officials to hold perpetrators accountable for revenge porn: “It is not a scandal. It is a sex crime,” she tells VF contributing editor Sam Kashner. “It is a sexual violation. It’s disgusting. The law needs to be changed, and we need to change.”

As for the people who looked at the pictures: Lawrence is not ashamed, but they should be. “Anybody who looked at those pictures, you’re perpetuating a sexual offense,” she said. “You should cower with shame.”

The result is more powerful than every “is she or isn't she?” feminist celebrity interview combined.

I am so in awe of her today. So proud.

To stand up for herself the way she has... She's amazing.

Don't focus on the negative comments you might have read. Focus on how extraordinary she is.

I hope she knows how much support she has, and I hope she knows that there are those of us who have respected her privacy throughout this horrible affair, and will fight her corner forever.

Yep, why I'm such a fan of her for it.

I know not many actresses wouldn't address something like this. or At least so quickly. But Jen I'm sure was like i gotta address it and get it out there. And she just knocked it out the park!

I've just stopped reading the negative ones, and only focus on how amazing she is.

We are hear for her. Through the tough times and the good. And will respect and stick up for her til the very end. #WesupportyouJen

There's certainly not many who would come out all guns blazing like that.

She always says how she's nothing like the character she plays in The Hunger Games, and that's largely true, but today she showed herself to have every bit of Katniss Everdeens's strength and fire.

I want to point out that there have been SO many positive comments as well. She's getting a lot of praise for this. I'm just swelling with pride for her right now. Even more than when she won the Oscar.
