I saw this on some other boards, so I thought it would be fun to try it out here

Well, for this game to have any chance, you should cut the points from 20 to 10.
These games never work because only few people vote over and over again, which is pointless IMO.
Plus, remove movies which are not released yet and some where she barely appears, like Inkheart. Or some which have 0 chance anyway, like Far Harbor -

Okay okay
I found this random list of 14 of her movies, so we'll go with that. We will start out with 10 points each and we can re-vote after every two voters

Yeah, something like that, but for example you can't leave out Phenomena, which many people love. My suggestion for the list would be:
- Once upon a time in America
- Phenomena
- Labyrinth
- The Hot Spot
- Career Opportunities
- The Rocketeer
- Higher Learning
- Mulholland Falls
- Inventing the Abbotts
- Dark City
- Waking the Dead
- Requiem for a Dream
- Pollock
- A Beautiful Mind
- Hulk
- House of Sand and Fog
- Dark Water
- Little Children
- Blood Diamond
- Some recent one
Anyway, you are the OP, so you don't have to accept it
. I'd like other people on this board to express their opinions as well.

followmyleader, you did do it right
and Mixalidis, I should have thought of that since I love Phenomena
Okay, I love this list and think The Day the Earth Stood Still should be the 20th one since she's the lead. Is everyone okay with this? If everyone is, it will look like this, having left in followmyleader and my own votes from the other list I made with the new rules:
Once Upon a Time in America - 10

OKAY PEOPLEI can't believe some of you are voting out Higher Learning before some of these other ones. Have you actually seen the movie? She was great in it. -
RavenwoodLamenti — 14 years ago(July 19, 2011 10:55 PM)
Whoa, where did you copy your points from? There are some lower and higher than what you have posted. And the Higher Learning thingI think Jen is great in all her films, but her character wasn't that great nor important (which I admit is the case with some of her other films) but, I think I dislike this movie more than the others on this list.

followmyleader — 14 years ago(July 20, 2011 12:20 AM)
I did see Higher Learning. I voted it out because I wasn't a big fan of the film. I prefer her other movies (though I haven't seen all of them yet, such as House of Sand and Fog, Requiem for a Dream, Etoile, Mulholland Falls, etc). I read that Jennifer had more screen time but the final version of Higher Learning but it got watered down and a lot got cut out.
I thought the thread was going by the movie itself, not by JC performance. She was great in, for example, The Day the Earth Stood Still, but that movie was lacking something. The original The Day the Earth Stood Still was better, of course.
