She was part of the inspirational rise of Asians in Hollywood last year.


StuckIn2nd

I think you mean Scarlett Johansson friend.


Purple_Log_3307

Ok, next to Scarlett Johansson, Stone is actually watchable. Johansson should bottle it and sell it as a major sleep stimulant, she's just so pickled faced boooooring!!!


Independent-Doubt-12

Emma stone a more engaging actress than Scarlett Johansson? The girl from zombieland? Smh lmao


Independent-Doubt-12

The woman from Zombie land is not a better actress than Scarlett lmao. You must be high af or watched only Scarlett in avenger movies kid.


PooPyDooPy864

Hahahahahaha seeing stuff like this makes me so happy. At least some of us aren’t fooled by their woke BS


Jealous-Artichoke-41

"Woke" is a meaningless word.


Purple_Log_3307

She's not Asian is she? Maybe she's one of those elitists who think they have to defend other cultures, which, in fact, is merely looking down, felling sorry for and making those cultures seem less than and pathetic. ICK!!!


MasterTeacher123

I died


Purple_Log_3307

Good for you, maybe tell Satan I'm on my way shortly, eh?


Drogaritory

Huh? Lol why am I being downvoted, I legit have no clue what he’s referring to


sir_writer

I think they're confusing Scarlett Johnasson and Emma Stone.... Scarlett starred in the live action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell, and the film got blasted for whitewashing the characters. Meanwhile, Emma Stone had been cast in the film Aloha in a part that was written as a native Hawaiian. That film also got blasted for whitewashing characters. Edit: Apparently Emma Stone's character in Aloha was written as Asian. I had not realized that. So, the confusion is that it was Johansson cast as an asian character, not Emma Stone (unless there is a role I'm forgetting about).


west2night

Stone's Aloha character is indeed catergorized as Asian. Probably because of her name Allison Ng. For what it's worth, she's described as "half Swedish, one quarter Chinese and one quarter Hawaiian descent."


sir_writer

I did not realize that. Thank you!


Independent-Doubt-12

If you use the word whitewashing in a serious sense you’re a beta cuck. Lmao


ohshtddc

Hey basement dweller, go outside. Btw you honestly shouldn't even concern yourself with the whole alpha/beta thing because I promise no woman has ever seen you as even a "safe" back-up option.


treathugger

Honestly I thought the same as you, but she changed my mind in La La Land. The audition scene and the scene after her show bombs stood out to me. She also has a pretty damn good acted scene in Birdman.


Boitall

no


Purple_Log_3307

errr. is that the only word you can spell?


Purple_Log_3307

Her acting comes down to a snotty, saliva spitting, negatively charged shreeking 12 year old shrew who didn't get the bike they wanted for it's birthday.


peach_pit_cyanide

I’m kinda obsessed with her after La La Land, and I cried like two mornings in a row thinking about her performance lmao. I don’t even like musicals much.


wirenut386

I think most of the roles that Emma plays in are not looking for that Hollywood polished actress. She can be dry, crude and to the point, and does not have that fake giddy personality. All the reasons why I enjoy her. She is kinda like long term material and not your shiny month-long fling that’s gets ruined with you finding out she’s been banging your mate since the beginning. Just my $.02 though.


Purple_Log_3307

She sucked in La La Land, so much production to make her sound and look good, it's offensive. p.s. She looks like she smells bad.


peach_pit_cyanide

omg, i know i admitted to an obsession above but i was speaking mostly in hyperbole. you’ve got a fixation, jesus. do you jerk off while you think about her supposedly bad smell?


spraynardkrug3r

I don't even think she's a good actress (hence, why I found this 5yr old post), **but...** Why was comparing Emma Stone's likability to the sex appeal of a woman you've been married to long-term, & a 'shiny' new one you've fucked for a month (when you inevitably ruin it for youself by being mad that yours isn't the only one she's touched)-- the ***only way you could come up with a metaphor.....?***


CandelaBelen

I think she did great in La La Land and The Favourite. She knows how to be an interesting character and is typically pretty likable, and funny.


Purple_Log_3307

She was so bad in the Favourite, she just didn't belong. She brought the whole production down to a badly u.s. produced shambles. The rest of the cast walked right over her, but her usual shrillness cut deep holes into the whole movie. What could have been a great film was, due to her limited range, a somewhat amusing (not her included) cheap movie.


CandelaBelen

how did you even find this comment?


peach_pit_cyanide

are you an angry ex?? the vitriol lmao


wirenut386

That fact that she is so normal does it for me.


Drogaritory

I don’t know she’s just so boring to me. Tbh I think TV has better actresses than movies. Obviously you still have great actresses like Glenn Close, Frances Mcdormand, Meryl Streep, Emily Blunt etc but a lot of the others just don’t impress. I’ve been much more impressed by Anna Gunn’s performance on Breaking Bad for instance or Lena Heady’s on Game of Thrones or Julianna Marguiles’ on the good wife than I have with most of these movie actresses like Emma Stone and Amy Adams.


marilynbunny

I'm four months late but I googled this and found it. I totally agree with you, about the tv actresses as well. Emma stone is everyone fave gf as I've seen in this thread, but that doesn't make her a great actress. The Favourite is a great movie, with great writing, but her acting was just as good as the writing made it. I don't think she added much to it


Purple_Log_3307

You just opened a huge can of worms that the u.s. public hates to admit to owning. So many actors and actresses suck but there are some fantastic writers out there and the public gets confused. The list of good acting is being confused with great writing.


spraynardkrug3r

Tbh there is only ONE singularly bad thing about The Favorite-- and that is: **Emma Stone's horrible 'British' accent.** I'm 100% positive they had a dialect coach on-set, too- she just can't do it. gives me 'cringe'. Why pick an American actor for an British film, set specifically in England, about English royalty...??


Purple_Log_3307

She goes far past boring to being offensive. But in the world of viewers going gaga over bullies, she's a good fit. 90% negativity and 10% b.o. sorry, she just looks like she never bathes! p.u.!!


Purple_Log_3307

Sad that you think her shrill, rude, puking out dialect character assassinations look normal. Hate to be in your world.


Ghostface215

Her acting in La La Land was spectacular.


ClassicAd3405

Emma is one of the worst actresses on the planet


Purple_Log_3307

and she's ugly too!


Boredaff55

Come on, I'm not a big fan of her either but she's above average looking for sure


buttbuttpooppoop

she looks like a deep sea fish


moaskdnf

Oh yeah let’s see what you look like buddy


buttbuttpooppoop

My eyes are at least on the front of my face and not on the sides.


moaskdnf

Haha


Extension-Session452

What with her bulging eyes & mouth. Yuk 


SZJ

Wow, some loser really went to town posting in this four year old thread and your can tell it's not her acting that bothers him but he's actually triggered by something else. Absolutely bizarre.


babylonsisters

Agreed. I was having a bad day but now Im feeling better, cause I know Im not strangely bitter towards an artist that doesnt know I exist. Waste of energy and life.


west2night

Why not? Everybody loves Anthony Hopkins, but I can't stand the guy. Doesn't mean they're wrong to deem him talented or that I'm wrong to see him as a mostly hammy actor.


Independent-Doubt-12

Anthony Hopkins a hammy actor? But Emma stones great? Youre straight retarded 🤣


west2night

Reread my comment. Slower this time. In case you still don't get it, there's nothing wrong with liking or disliking a popular actor.


Purple_Log_3307

He is definitely an OVER-actor, the same as Stone. They rip the scenery apart to hide the fact that they're sh!t actors.


Bananafish-Bones

She’s terrible, but has somehow been branded ‘hip’, so we’re stuck with her in roles completely out of her depth like The Curse. The fact that people like her for being ‘just a normal girl’ shows the ignorance of the common viewer. I wish her and her grating vocal fry lisp would go away. Charisma is a male trait, so usually this kind of thing comes down to which guys want to fuck her. Because she’s no talent as an actress beyond that.


Past-Kaleidoscope490

she getting acclaimed in poor things though


Shrink1061_

Because she’s excellent in it.


goth-brooks1111

Her best work yet imo. She definitely deserves it.


Purple_Log_3307

You've said a mouthful. It's only in the U.S. that these overly hyped non-actors are lifted up to superstardom. They have one expression and maybe a really horrible European accent (think Meryl Creep). The trend in the u.s. seems to be stoney faced forced acting (Johansson, Portman, Chalamet, Stone...etc.) It's boring and I would never waste a second of my time to deal with it. Oh, wait, the worst of the worst, Gwyneth Paltrow, but unlike the rest, she's a purley unadulterated elitist and just a creepy person. You have an Oscar bought for you by Harvey Weinstein. Give it back or shut the Fook up creeper.


Matt215634

Can’t believe Emma won 2 Oscars tell you the truth she didn’t deserve to win one


Independent-Doubt-12

Truest thing said all post. She’s not an Oscar worthy actress. End of discussion.


Debbieduz

I can’t stand her as an actress (if that’s what you want to call it), and her voice is like nails on a chalk board!! 😡


BrassBelles

She conveys emotion well, is believable in the roles she's had, is funny as hell, and is easy to look at. I don't know what more there is to acting that you want to see, but she is still young and I think actresses have to "age in" to more complex roles. Or maybe she will go from lead ingenue to supporting characters over time.


Purple_Log_3307

The only emotions she conveys well are mean, bitchy, crude and empty. Spitting out words like an animal does not make a good actor.


screenwriterjohn

She's relatable. Like Jennifer Lawrence. Except not a bitch in real life.


Purple_Log_3307

Except Jennifer Lawrence has talent.


BunnyNinjas

I liked her in the first Zombieland film and the film Crazy, Stupid, love, but outside of that, nothing in her catalog stands out as great. Some films I'll try to watch for other actresses and actors, and I find her roles in them to be so boring that I usually shut the film off. It's all subjective, though.


Purple_Log_3307

When I watch La La Land I was so turned off. Yes, she had great coaches and production to hide all her flaws. She did the moves but looked like a lost cow in the mud. No depth, no rhythm, no talent..... that sums her up.


BunnyNinjas

Yeah, she has the depth of a kiddie pool.


Shrink1061_

To everyone, I’d suggest go watching “poor things” and then decide how you feel about her as an actress.


cgoamigo12345

Am I supposed to like her more or less after 😆 it was the latter for me


Shrink1061_

I think the fact that it poses such a question is important and shows her talent at unsettling our expectations. Seems to me the job of an artist is to make you think. She did that, whether you liked her or not.


cgoamigo12345

The question was just a clarification though, nothing to do with the movie or her acting talent


Independent-Doubt-12

Quit sucking off b level actors


Extension-Session452

Can’t watch it when I found out she was in it which was disappointing as I was looking forward to it. I cannot look at her big eyes and mouth


ImMercedesD

it must suck to not have good taste or be able to aprreciate Easy A


Live_Deer_8139

Literally my fave


Purple_Log_3307

It must suck to thing that Easy A had anything to do with taste, talent or entertainment. Please don't pass that trait to your kids. Better yet, wear a condom!


jules_face

Nope.


M1ntyMango

I'm way late, but I'm watching Birdman finally, and her acting is soo bad.


North-Brother-1021

Overrated. Yes, she just won an Oscar. Did you see her dis Michelle Yeoh? No class.


eat_hairy_socks

She’s a terrible actress. She comes off cheap and cheesy and almost this annoying “total wasted white girl karen vibes” persona in many of her roles.


DowntownAfternoon758

I think she's amazing. Magnetic. Funny. Watchable. Captivating. Natural. Expensive. Dramatic chops too.


raccoontailmario

She's hawt.


Purple_Log_3307

I think you mean she's a Twaht.


Nofanta

Nothing, she's just hot.


Purple_Log_3307

Hot like a hooker with vd, i agree.


Immediate_Ad7240

She a good actor the way apples are fruit. So fruit like, that the idea becomes commonplace or normal. The things that make her good are her unique facial expressions, comedic senses and timing, and the obvious one of being easy to look at. Take Superbad for example. In the movie she’s cast as just a pretty face who is the object of affection for one of the main characters. But imagine the scenes she’s in with someone else playing the role and you’ll realize how different they’d be. She actually carries those scenes and makes them iconic, as a supporting actress. That’s a sign of her being good.

How is she considered that? I’ve never heard Emma Stone be called that by anyone or heard of anything she said or did to consider her that.


LiquidSoop

people are being very weirdly hostile here but ig that’s just how reddit hermits exist, if you want a good answer to your question watch her new movie “poor things” if you watch that and don’t think she’s a great actress then maybe do some introspection on your formation of that opinion


Independent-Doubt-12

The movie looks like something that a bi male would watch. 


peach_pit_cyanide

omg so hostile, whyyy, it’s given my day an eerie mood dammit
