Pretty, blonde-ish, funny not-quite leading ladies. One plays the wife, the other the best friend. Do you have a preference?

kinda interesting discussion on the whole lelsie mann/apatow nepotism issue, and the lack of roles for women of a certain age in hollywood

Judy Greer is really good in a lot of terrible shit. Also top-5 celebrity crush.

ilx <3s judy greer (so do i)

― mookieproof, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 19:18 (thirteen years ago)

Leslie Mann didn't make me laugh once in the three movies I saw her in. All I know Judy Greer from is Archer, and every line she delivers totally fucking kills. So, Greer.

Yes JG, def.

― Juggy Brottleteen (ENBB), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 19:23 (thirteen years ago)

i prefer greer, but both of them are pretty great imo. poll needed the blisteringly unfunny katherine heigl to make the last place an easier choice.

Feel like there should be a poll of actresses who play The Best Friend in romantic comedies.

But JG would win that too.

― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 19:29 (thirteen years ago)

Yeha, I have no problem with Mann but Greer was in 13 Going on 30.

― Juggy Brottleteen (ENBB), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 19:31 (thirteen years ago)

Jennifer Finnigan is the obvious missing third option here:

Nope. Couldn't be wronger.

farmyard animals are better than everything

― Juggy Brottleteen (ENBB), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:08 (thirteen years ago)

But particularly Gucci Gucci.

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:09 (thirteen years ago)

yeah not a fan of any animals tbh

― pandemic, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:12 (thirteen years ago)

JG is a non-entity. Leslie Mann it is then.

what does it take to be an entity?

― mookieproof, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:18 (thirteen years ago)

being in something besides a bunch of shitcoms

― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:19 (thirteen years ago)

JG is a non-entity.

Say goodbye to these, Shakey, because it's the last time you're ever going to see them.

Please point me in the direction of a great Leslie Mann dramatic performance.

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:21 (thirteen years ago)

Leslie Mann makes movies

― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:22 (thirteen years ago)

a couple of which have been funny

― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:23 (thirteen years ago)

Um, almost all of JG's work has been in film too, although she was the star of funny summer show "Miss Guided" a couple years back (which was great and unfortunately killed off).

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:25 (thirteen years ago)

Leslie Mann is currently a voice actress on "Allen Gregory." Judy Greer was in "Adaptation."

― i couldn't adjust the food knobs (Phil D.), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:26 (thirteen years ago)

Oh yeah, and I was just reminded upthread that she does voicework in Archer, so Leslie Mann can take a leap.

Adaptation is a terrible movie

― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:35 (thirteen years ago)

Just based on Arrested Development alone Judy Greer wins this, although she manages to be great in everything she's in.

― bouquet beatdown (Nicole), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:35 (thirteen years ago)

Not to malign Leslie Mann in any way because I do think she's funny, but Judy Greer is next level.

― bouquet beatdown (Nicole), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:36 (thirteen years ago)

Um, almost all of JG's work has been in film too

her imdb entry indicates otherwise

― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:36 (thirteen years ago)

To rephrase, "almost all of JG's work (that I've seen) has been in film too"

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:37 (thirteen years ago)

Dude even Dustin Hoffman is doing TV now, get over it.

Gotta admire that rhetorical strategy, though. "Judy Greer is a TV actress." "She was in Adaptation." "I didn't like that movie."

― i couldn't adjust the food knobs (Phil D.), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:45 (thirteen years ago)

lol

― Juggy Brottleteen (ENBB), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:47 (thirteen years ago)

haha

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 20:48 (thirteen years ago)

Leonard here would be me meeting Judy Greer.

my only point was I don't watch sitcoms, ergo she is a non-entity. I have apparently seen her in one movie, which was bad. I have not seen any other movies she has been in.

― The Uncanny Frankie Valley (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 21:13 (thirteen years ago)

If you see enough of her, you start seeking out things she's been in no matter how bad they might be.

― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 21:14 (thirteen years ago)

faux-ops

― omar little, Wednesday, 16 November 2011 21:52 (thirteen years ago)

Shaky, how did you not see that shitty Wes Craven werewolf movie with Christina Ricci and Jesse Eisenberg and Scott Baio and Craig Kilborn and Judy Greer?

― i couldn't adjust the food knobs (Phil D.), Wednesday, 16 November 2011 21:59 (thirteen years ago)

haha wow that does sound like something I would watch actually

one year passes...

Leslie, are you ever criticized for making movies with your husband?

Mann Yeah. I hear it when I’m stupidly on the Internet reading what those –
Apatow 11-year-old boys.
Mann – 11-year-old boys are writing.
Apatow You give your self-esteem away so quickly to an 11-year-old boy. (laughs)
Mann (Those comments) hurt my feelings. But I know that there’s so much more. I’m not just the girl who’s in Judd’s movie. I’m giving much more. It’s such a collaboration. If I wasn’t here, it wouldn’t exist in the way it does.

never saw this thread before, glad the results bore out how obvious the answer is

― The Doc Morbama (some dude), Sunday, 25 November 2012 17:42 (twelve years ago)

It's a total crime that no one seems willing or able to give Judy Greer the vehicle she deserves.

― Come Into My Layer (Old Lunch), Sunday, 25 November 2012 18:07 (twelve years ago)

she is awesome

― mh, Sunday, 25 November 2012 18:07 (twelve years ago)

Kinda want to write a movie for her now.

― Come Into My Layer (Old Lunch), Sunday, 25 November 2012 18:23 (twelve years ago)

she should marry a director

― buzza, Sunday, 25 November 2012 18:24 (twelve years ago)

I just started plotting one out, it mostly involves me smooching Judy Greer though

― mh, Sunday, 25 November 2012 18:25 (twelve years ago)

hope next time the topic comes up in a leslie mann interview someone thinks to say "frances mcdormand"

― The Doc Morbama (some dude), Sunday, 25 November 2012 18:31 (twelve years ago)

Leslie Mann is fine, but thank goodness the results were as they turned out to be. Mann would have more ammo in her defensive quiver if she did much beyond not just acting in her husband's films, but playing a version of herself in them, with her actual kids as her on-screen kids. Gena Rowlands she is not.

― Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 25 November 2012 19:49 (twelve years ago)

josh have you seen 40 year old virgin? anyhow i like mann but this margin seems otm to me. some wonderfully rong shakey in this thread.
