How in the hell is Evangeline Lilly "mostly television"? Use your brains people...

What mostly tv actress has 10 million to throw around?

gauloise said...

JJ abrams just issued an apology to her today for making her do nude scenes on Lost, so I doubt she is on his side

Unknown said...

Jar Jar Abrams is in trouble? I hadn't even heard that yet. [Searching...] Ah, looks pretty mild, probably won't knock him out of directing the next steaming pile of Star Wars. Whoever it is should save her $10M.

Speaking of Lost, I think the most punchable thing I've ever seen might be Cuse and Lindelof on the screen at the same time being interviewed. And I never even saw the show.

Moesha and KRS1

Keri Russell, cause it mentions "war of" and she is in his Star wars movie

yepthatsme said...

So it is JJ Abrams, and some actress who would never spend 10 mil to defend him, but knows that he isn't really in that much trouble with Evangelina Lily and won't have to spend a cent, but wants him to see her as his dear friend and ally so he will cast her in his dreadful franchise movies.

Well, Evangeline was talking about 3, 4 seasons. Abrams wasn't much involved in the show at that point so his apology wasn't necessary. This shit is about cuse/lindelof. Two POS who also ruined finale of the show.

J.J. Abrams really does make CRAP movies BTW

Simon said...

I don’t get the whole Evangeline lily comment. This was network tv and i have seen every episode of Lost and she was not naked. Not sure what her issue is.

Jon said...

Yes, he has great concepts that have tremendous build up and then zero follow through. The endings of all his movies seem like an afterthought.

yepthatsme said...

She felt pressured to do the scene, methinks!

IanPhlegming said...

JJ Abrams ruined two "Star"s already, "Trek" and "Wars," but he's not to blame for this. Abrams was long gone and making movies by that point.

Villains here are Lindelof & Cuse, who ran with the show for a bit but imploded in the later years and blew a flaccid finale quite badly. Cuse I will always like for "Brisco County, Jr.," but Lindelof's career is one gargantuan steaming pile of entertainment excrement at it's most stench-inducing diarrheic.

@ Simon

"DIRECTOR JJ Abrams says he has tried to make contact with Evangeline Lilly after the actress revealed this week she was left trembling and in tears after being “cornered” into doing a partially nude scene on the TV show Lost.


Abrams, who made a name for himself directing Lost, has released a statement to ET expressing regret about the incident."

Mac said...

PS, even though I don't like his movies (JJ), he is responding to this like one of the good guys. Good for him.
I don't see how anyone would need to fight for him, let alone with 10 million $. It was just something Evangeline revealed on a podcast in casual conversation. She isn't trying to get him fired, and neither is anyone else that I know of.

TrapQueen said...

He's closeted and a predator. Stop.

whobabydaddy said...

Jimmy "JJ" Walker and Whoopie Goldberg. Her face looks like scorched earth. That was a dead give away.

Shit. I agree completely with DDonna. Damn.

All you need to judge the writing skills of Lindelof is The Leftovers. What a complete waste of time that show is, and the actors try so hard to make something good out of it. It's worse than any kind of trashy TV in that it Lindelof informs us, from the first frame, that this is Art!, the most important Art! We will have to pay close attention and watch it multiple times or we won't understand this Art!

Fuck him, all LIndelof writes is junk, piled on metaphors of no meaning, empty plot twists and superfluous characters to fill the Lindelof void. So post modern, dude!

JJ Abrams is bad enough. Lindelof is offensive on every level.

Now, the blind, what TV actress has $10 million lying around to defend anyone? Other than Judge Judy?

frogger said...

Lost is still a sore spot for me. That finale - ugh. Then I watched The Leftovers. First 2 seasons - phenomenal. 3rd season - total shite.I will NEVER watch another Lindelof show.

ComeTheApocalypseI'mInCharge said...

So many men never get the finish right **sighs**

plot said...

frogger,

Lindelof gets the audience to buy in, for sure, but then trashes the viewers, every damn time.

Mad Hominem said...

She says she will go scorched earth on whoever gets in her way.

...by forcing them to watch reruns of Buffy the Vampire Slayer?

Give it a rest, SMG.

Oh, and why the hell is Evangeline Lilly complaining about a "nude"
scene on a network show? They're strictly PG content, so no one's
going to know what her nipples look like.

plot said...

@Mad

Just a hunch but maybe she really didn't want to be totally naked in front of the crew.

Bill Beard said...

(((JJ Abrams))).

and that's why I don't date actresses.

Manuél Bun said...

mystery box plots as one's main (probably only) screenwriting philosophy are a sign of a hack writer. Many pulp authors used it back when they were paid on a by the word basis

Manuél Bun said...

have the actors been that much of an improvement?


hmmm.... ,now that I think about it, dealing with a pro-bro, instead of ho, must make things a bit more relaxing after a long shift working in the hollywood soulmines
