Read the script. It has a naked Megan Fox in it. I'm in!

But we all know they will cover up or cut that scene from the final cut.

The script though, had nice touches. I'm a fan of Amanda Seyfried (and no, I didn't watch Mamma Mia!) so it should be fun. I hope they change some of the dialogue as it was way overdone, like the writer was trying to better her first effort, Juno.

Sadly, there is no naked Megan Fox.  :-(

I've seen the film.  I forsee it being the downfall of Diablo Cody as it alienates her fanbase.

What do you mean by that? I'm worried now.  So did you not like it then? I've got the script but don't want to spoil myself. I hope I like the dialogue because Juno had me in stitches, that remark her friend makes about how if the baby has finger nails it might claw at her 'vage' on its way out was priceless :p Also, I hear it has a kind of HEATHERS vibe; a 'very' quotable film thanks to the dialogue!

I did, she was kind of annoying in it lol. It's thanks to MEAN GIRLS and HBO's 'BIG LOVE' that I'm a fan regardless ;)

I read the script. It reads like a cheap Kevin Williamson imitiation, minus his quirky dialogue. Still, I'm looking forward to the movie. I'm sure it will be crappy but it looks like a fun film.

I'm actually excited about this. Supposedly this is the movie that "proves" Megan Fox can act...but it's not as if I've ever paid attention to her acting in the first place.

I've heard other people say it was going to be the fall of Diablo Cody as well - which honestly doesnt surprise me.

And for god's sake, will someone please establish that no nipple = no nudity.

Word. I think it's pathetic that the main buzz for this movie was Megan Fox's obviously nonexistent nudity.

Anyway, just watched the trailer. It actually looks pretty decent. Reminds me a little of Teeth. Honestly, I'm a huge fan of female influence in horror movies whether it be the people behind the movie or within the movie itself. Some of the Diablo Cody sound horrendous. Juno had some zingers but some of this stuff ain't even clever. Still, I'm sure I'll see it when it comes out. There's always something to be said about horror movies that actually came fresh from someone's imagination, even if they're not always good.

Juno's story was okay, but the dialogue was awful! I hated every word that came out of Juno's mouth.

Jennifer's Body looks okay. I don't get the title, or the tagline. Amanda looks good, but she's never bad.

I hate the poster.

I too dislike the poster because she looks like a whore and that's not a stretch for her. I thought she was going to be acting in this film?

Every movie I've seen her in she's dressed like and acts like a slut.

In How To Lose Friends And Alienate People the director says she's a great actress who is held back by her looks... really? This coming from the guy who had her in a wet t shirt for no reason in a scene she had no reason to get wet in.

"Oh Megan, you're a great actress. Now walk into the pool and get all wet and in slow motion we'll film your tits."

Thumbs up.

I saw this. It was an odd mix of horror and comedy, but unlike, say, Drag Me to Hell, it didn't really excel in either, which left me feeling a little cold... Nonetheless, it wasn't awful, if flawed. Fans of either Megan or Amanda should enjoy this, for both do pretty well here considering what they were given.

I only read some of the script, and well...if I wrote it I'd be ashamed to have turned in something like THAT.

Looked alright, but the out awful.

Is it me, or does she look like Rebecca Gayheart in that picture? I could be way off.

Not a fan of either actress (though I did see every ep. of Veronica Mars), just trolling to see how many people will go see it just 'cuz of Megan Fox.

I must say I'm impressed.

I saw the first "Transformers", which was moderately entertaining - but if you asked me what my thoughts on Megan Fox were I'd have to say that I can barely remember her in it.

I find that this is true of many of the current film stars - they may be pretty faces (both male and female), but they are often bland and lack any screen presence, let alone acting ability. (I posted a similar sentiment re Zooey Deschanel on another thread).

As for her looks - well, I am surrounded every day at work by hundreds of attractive young women, so don't need to watch films to ogle supposed beauties. I can truthfully say that I know a number of girls who can easily put Ms Fox and other hyped celebs in the shade when it comes to looks.
